**GRAND DEL MAR CHATEAU**

This home was perfect for our gathering, with plenty of room to spread out and large common areas for gathering together. The yard is huge and will accommodate all ages for games of all sorts and the added features of a gas grill and a large hot tub really add to the value. We are already making plans to return.

This house was perfect for our family! We stayed for a wedding and had an Easter gathering. Everyone found things to love- from the ice hockey table and piano to the beautiful creek just steps away. The host was wonderful to work with as well! Definitely recommend!

The most amazing time well spent on our annual work retreat! Erika was amazing, and communicative! Cant wait to return!

The house was perfect for our group. The house had everything we needed from beds to a well equiped kitchen. Everything was clean. We look forward to going back in the summer!

Great house for larger groups of people. Open spaces for folks to gather and cook, play games, or watch TV, but also a smaller cozy space for reading or smaller conversations.Host was quick to respond to questions

Wonderful stay with lots of space for our party of 7. Really enjoyed the sitting room with the gas fireplace. Great location right outside of Gig Harbor but away from all the noise.

The house fit our group of 7 women well. It was very quiet and had ample parking for everyone. It is a little over 4 miles to Costco, Safeway, Target and other shopping anyone may need. The town of Gig Harbor is also a bit over 4 miles. Everyone said that their beds were fine, and loved their rooms. Kitchen was well stocked. We did a 3.5 mile walk in the woods, that were less than a 10 minute drive away. There are several walks that are less that 5 miles, within a 30 minute drive. Good internet. Responsive Host. Big yard and things for all ages of children to do. We didn't have time to use the hot tub, but will next time!

We loved our extended family trip to the Grand Del Mar Chateau! We had three couples, one single adult, and three kids under 7. We had plenty of space to be together in the main living areas, and and spacious bedrooms have everyone their own space to spread out. The bedrooms are all spacious and very nicely put together with comfortable beds. The bathrooms were all nice and clean. The upstairs game room area had kids toys and gave the kids a nice play area out of the main living area. The 3rd floor does stay pretty hot even with the AC on in hot weather, so if you're staying in the summer and using the 3rd floor, keep that in mind. The kitchen isn't huge but we had plenty of space to take turns preparing meals. There was a lot of extra space around the kitchen and dining area to have coolers and food storage. The yard and outdoor space is wonderful! We had all the space we needed for the kids to run and play, relax outside on the patio, and play games. There is even a little trail down to a creek on the property. We loved that it was only about 15 minutes from downtown Gig Harbor but is private and feels like you're far away from everything. There were a few things on the property that needed some good cleaning or fixing up, but when I mentioned them to the hosts after our stay they said they addressed those right away. Communication with Erika was easy and she was very responsive. It is a lovely house and a great option for a large group or family!

Beautiful house, large with comfortable sleeping areas. Beds were great. Kitchen has many small appliances and serving dishes, plenty of plates and silverware. The cornhole game and air hockey table were great! Really close to Cresent lake boat launch.

I have stayed at this place twice now. The place is nice and big, we were all comfortable and the property is remote enough, where we felt very peaceful and in touch with nature. The down side is: it’s really dusty. The house has a central AC unit and the filters have not been cleaned in a while. So despite the cranking in between guests, the place is dusty. If you have allergies I don’t recommend the stay. This was our second time there and all of us brought air purifiers with us.

Larger than it looks!

For our family's annual girls' weekend, this property was terrific for our group of 7. It was great for each of us to have our own room, and we appreciated the overall spaciousness of the house. The house was equipped for all of our needs, and the host was great about responding promptly to questions when we had them. Highly recommended!

It was everything we needed

This is such a beautiful property and home. Love spending our annual girls weekend at Grand Del Mar Château.

We were very happy with check in and the hot tub

Huge home on a large property. The size was perfect for six women who all want their own room. It has everything you need for your stay. If it was a little closer to town the location would have been perfect but that’s hard to get with lots of bedrooms. The house was clean except the master bath could use a deep cleaning of the shower. Overall it was a wonderful home and we really enjoyed our stay.

The Del Mar Chateau consisted of many very large rooms with lots of futons and couches in each room. Tons of games are in most rooms, including parts of many video game consoles (didn't get a chance to try them out), and even a box of Duplos and other kid toys, which the littles loved. The space fit our 3-generation family well. We had a broken shower head, and someone came to fix it the next day. The AC worked great on the 1st and 2nd floors in the hot summer; the 3rd story was really hot, (even with the AC running and the fan they brought for us), but if you stay in the fall or spring, you should be okay. The outdoor space was great, with the gazebo (fan didn’t work), porch, play structure, and field. We weren't able to use the hot-tub, because the breaker kept tripping so it wasn't hot whenever we wanted to use it and water smelled bad. The kitchen was stocked with tons of stuff (although disorganized, a lot of expired pantry items, and non-stick pans were in rough shape). Our family really enjoyed the outdoor spaces and having space for all our family members.
