Super clean, very cozy, beautiful area. Everything we needed for our stay and host was responsive to questions.
We had a great family visit. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. We are planning to come back. The view of Mt. Rainer across the water is spectacular at sunrise.
Great location. Great house...just needs a good cleaning.
We enjoyed our stay, it was relaxing, quiet and serene. Property was clean and had all the essentials we needed. Loved being right on the water with views of Mount Rainier. Driveable distance to Seattle and Olympic National Park. Definitely enjoyed this autumn stay!
This lovely property was exactly as represented. It was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds comfortable. We really enjoyed the beautiful water view. We would definitely stay here again.
The property was beautiful and well-maintained! However, the deck is multiple levels iand is a trip hazard. Everyone tripped and fell at least once because of all the level changes. The owners would benefit to painting the different levels, different colors, or marking the level changes with tape.
This is a beautiful property and a cozy clean home everything was great, only 2 ideas I would say moving forward. It says no dogs allowed, either the actual home owners own dogs or someone brought them anyways because the two down stairs couches were covered in white dog hair, I'm a dog owner so I just lint rolled both couches and all was good, but someone with a allergy may not agree. Second the property does not have beach access like I thought. Still 5 stars great home, beautiful sunrise and a quiet peaceful spot.
Super clean, very cozy, beautiful area. Front door lock was a little fussy to deal with, but overall the place was awesome — definitely recommend.
The house is super cute and cozy. Very well maintained and clean. The view includes Mount Rainier on clear days. We saw whales and sea lions from the deck. The neighborhood is quiet and the residents were all friendly.
Great space for a family with children. Beautiful view of water even on a cloudy day. Overall great location.
Lovely cabin, with beautiful views. Everything we needed for a little getaway. Very clean and host was responsive to questions. Peaceful and beautiful! Had a wonderful time.
We had a great stay right on the bay. It was cold, windy and rainy, but once we got the house warm, we had a festive family Christmas.
Beautiful view of the water a quiet place to restore and re-energize yourself. The property is clean and well maintained the property owner responded quickly. We felt safe and in the lovely quite home.
If you read other reviews you will see flying colors. I think for 90% of vacationers it will easily be a 9 or 10. For my parnter and I we enjoyed the stay overall, and the area and view are beautiful, no, stunning. But we independently felt the quality didn't meet our expectations, comparing this experience to other Vbro experiences. Keep in mind we have very high standards/expectations so we are not representative of most people. For us, it felt outdated and no touch of personalization. For example, there was no care/welcome package common for vacation rentals, and wifi was never communicated. Patio furniture was not arranged or set up for our expensive stay, until a day later after we left the premises to enjoy the area, which makes us wonder if the NEST camera at the door is used to monitor departures and arrivals. If so, a little too cyber surveillance for our taste. We would not stay there again unless accomedations were improved. Not for the generous price we paid. These things are subjective.
We had a lovely relaxing time at this beautiful place. The views were spectacular and the house was lovely. We were a group of three adults and two children and the sleeping arrangement worked well. You do have to walk down the street a few houses to get to the stairs to the beach, which is very rocky. The water was lovely especially since it was so hot some days. Thanks for a great day!
This was the most quiet, peaceful place we’ve ever stayed. There was a pod of four orcas that swam by almost every day and eagles and deer also. The deck was incredible, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Communication with with the host was excellent.
Enjoyed this house so much! Such a cool little cabin. The house is full of surprises and was a perfect place to relax!! The view is to die for. The sound and the mountain!
The house is absolutely amazing. Clean, warm and cozy. Definitely will be coming back to this place. Well stocked with things. Beds are very comfortable.
We stayed 4 nights at this water-view home. We had another couple join us for a couple nights. Loved walking the beach and exploring the area. It was a rainy May but we got a spectacular view of Mt. Rainier one day when the clouds cleared. The house is super-clean and has everything you need for your getaway. We used the wood stove every day which made it very cozy on those rainy days. The media loft was terrific and there was a whole bin of DVDs available. We needed to reach the owner shortly after we arrived and they texted back immediately. Really appreciated being able to reach them if needed. We wouldn't hesitate to return for a future stay.
