Too busy for us. But we would visit again.
3/5 - Okay

Tumwater is a neutral for me just due to lack of things to do outside of movies, or beer areas. There is great shopping opportunities for groceries, & west Olympia where the mall is is a short drive. Small hiking trail along the deschutes river.
