Apartments for Rent in Northeast Tacoma - Tacoma

With its rolling hills and attractive homes perched along tree-lined streets, Northeast Tacoma provides a decidedly suburban feel while still being only about seven miles from downtown. The neighborhood follows Commencement Bay from Dash Point south to Fife Heights, and it is separated from downtown by the Port of Tacoma. Several marinas dot the shoreline of Northeast Tacoma, including Tyee Marina and Corinthian Yacht Club of Tacoma.

One of the highlights of Northeast Tacoma, Dash Point State Park, covers 400 acres along Puget Sound and is the ideal hiking, swimming, fishing, biking, and boating destination. Dash Point Beach is a summertime favorite vacation spot, but residents can enjoy the amazing views year-round. Another great destination, Browns Point Lighthouse Park, sits along the northwest side of the neighborhood. Tour the lightkeeper’s cottage, have a picnic, and then sit back along the beach and watch the ships arrive at the port.

When residents aren’t enjoying the natural beauty and endless outdoor activities in Northeast Tacoma, they can be found dining at local hotspots such as Browns Point Diner, Cliff House, and the Hitchin’ Post Saloon. After moving to a Northeast Tacoma rental, you’ll have to travel outside of the neighborhood for serious shopping, but you will find some stores and other businesses along Hoyt Road and 21st Avenue.
