    Enjoy life's simple pleasures. Dawdle under giant trees filled with wonderful birds, laugh at the squirrels showing off and hold your breath as deer amble through the yard on their way to the orchard next door. Wander through flowerbeds and delight as hummingbirds stop in midair to introduce themselves. Pick berries or watch butterflies play. Relax in a rocking chair, sip tea, eat cookies, read books, ponder puzzles, admire the view or just listen to the wind in the trees. Nudged between the trees overlooking the Orting Valley, near Seattle and Tacoma and minutes from downtown Puyallup. Great food, great calm, great stories and a fabulous view await your arrival.

    Amazing B&B

    September 11, 2012

    There are no words that can describe our wonderful stay and experience at this B&B. The hosts are friendly and gracious people who you feel very comfortable to be around. The rooms and accomodations are very roomy and clean, The breakfast(s) are always delicious with portions more than anyone can eat. What a wonderful setting to enjoy the evening, stay the night and leave after enjoying the awesome view of Mt Ranier while enjoying your morning breakfast and of course the tasty cup of coffee!

    Beautiful, warm, welcoming

    August 10, 2012

    Closest lodging to Orting, WA and the old soldiers' home where I visited my father. A view with a room was the perfect place to stay. Everything was wonderful.

    True To Its Name

    August 04, 2012

    We enjoyed our three-night stay at A Room With A View on our most recent trip to Washington. When Rainier is "out" the view is truly spectacular. We could see it from our bedroom and there was an even better view from the deck. The Inn is immaculate with the entire lower level devoted to guests. There is a nice living room and dining area with a fridge and microwave available. Even though the Inn is close to large shopping areas, the neighborhood is quiet. Lenny is a wonderful hostess with a bright endearing smile. That would have been enough for us, but she is a wonderful cook as well. We so enjoyed our conversations over breakfast and appreciated her recommendations of places to eat and a neat little place to find huckleberry ice cream. You can tell she loves what she does. Her love for the area is evident and she took a genuine interest in us - a touch which wasn't present everywhere we stayed. We highly recommend this B&B.

    Road Trip Overnighter

    July 25, 2012

    It was great to be able to stay with Lenny and Zoom, even though it was a very short visit on our "road trip" from Spokane after the purchase of our "commuter car". The view is exquisite, no matter what "the mountain" is doing at the time. Lenny serves a breakfast to die for, and the room was so comfortable and beautiful. It was just what we needed at this point in our trip to get us to slow down and relax before we headed back to MN! They were wonderful hosts and we were so lucky to have a chance to get to know them a little bit better. We were infatuated with Rainier and even took the time to head up there to explore a little bit. We had a wonderful stay and recommend them to others who mention going to WA.

    Fantastic, great food, wonderful gardens!

    June 07, 2012

    Our entire family was able to stay in one location for a wedding in Puyallup. We are from Minnesota, and the Zimmerman's were able to give us wonderful directions to the local hot spots.

    Wonderful & relaxing

    March 04, 2012

    We had a warm welcome and were well taken care of. We enjoyed not only the inn keepers but the food as well which was fabulous. I would recommend them to anyone. Wonderful place to stay.
