Only issue is that there is not enough parking space. Everything else is perfect. Pool is great during the summer and interior of apartment is nice.

I’ve previously shared how much I appreciated The Dakota, and I’m happy to do so again. From day one, the staff has been welcoming, responsive, and professional. The community feels secure and well-maintained, and any maintenance requests I’ve submitted have been handled quickly and efficiently—especially thanks to Hunter, who’s been outstanding. I’m glad to call The Dakota home and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-managed place to live.

I’m new to Washington and came from Germany, excited to experience the Tacoma area. After touring eight properties, The Dakota stood out as the most notable. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and safe. Caitlin H. provided a thorough and personalized tour, making the application process seamless and stress-free. Since moving in, I’ve enjoyed the quiet, secure environment and the convenient location, which is near Walmart, Costco, and Home Depot. Caitlyn P. was beneficial with the move-in... process, quickly addressing minor maintenance needs, and Hunter came out within hours to fix everything. The Dakota is beautiful, well-maintained, and ideal for military families, just 20–30 minutes from JBLM and 10 minutes from Lacey’s shopping areas. I’m pleased with my choice and highly recommend The Dakota to anyone looking for a safe and welcoming place to call home.
