*Update: New Fast Ferry Service to heart of Downtown Seattle (Pike Place Market area) in 28 minutes starts July 2017!! *
Since 2009 Oyster Bay Manor has welcomed thousands of guests from all over the world.
A private tree lined driveway leads to the house which is located on a beautiful 2/3 acre private park-like waterfront property. Within easy reach of downtown Seattle, we're also close to world-class golf courses, an eclectic collection of communities and endless recreational, cultural and scenic discoveries.
Step back in time with this elegant 1937 brick manor with original features of mahogany trim, leaded glass windows and doors, and hardwood floors throughout. The entertainment size great room is warmed by exquisite marbled plaster and hand painted coffer ceilings. Large picture windows frame the beautiful views of mature gardens and the shoreline of beautiful Oyster Bay.
Our location is excellent! ... we're just 17 miles West of downtown Seattle. One can take the local commuter ferry, (drive, or walk on) it runs typically on the hour from 4:30 am thru Midnight and brings you to the heart of downtown Seattle in about 50 minutes.
The ferry is just an option, one can also drive directly to Seattle, and SeaTac International airport via Hwy I-5 in just under an hour.
We were very impressed with the responsiveness and thoughtfulness of the manager and quality of the home. The home is charming with beautiful furnishings and art (nice eye candy). The kitchen is nicely stocked with spices and all the dishes/cookware you need. The views are amazing, location excellent to restaurants and shopping. We definitely recommend this property!
Rod’s cottage on the bay was perfect for a weekend getaway. We loved sipping coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening in the backyard, enjoying the view. Thank you for sharing your home, Rod.
This home was spectacular. The host met us upon arrival to explain the various features of this 1937 vintage home. Remarkable decor with lots to see. The backyard overlooks an inlet and is framed by towering pines and cedars. Great place to relax... but close to grocery shopping, Bremerton (don't miss the foot ferry to Port Orchard) and we made the easy trip to Tacoma for the Glass Museum. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home.
Just as picturesque as the photos in the listing. Plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the gorgeous views. Grill was clean and in perfect working order. Kayaks to paddle around in the calm bay and fireworks reflecting off of the water on the 4th of July were unforgettable! Well-stocked kitchen and comfortable beds/bedding. Plenty of towels and other necessities were provided. The washer and dryer came in very handy as did the provided laundry soap. We wanted for nothing. Rod was communicative and super accommodating. He gave us tips on enjoying the house, finding groceries, and pointing out local restaurants and things to do in the area. The Pearl on Oyster Bay was a perfect location for our family to explore Puget Sound. We also took a day trip to Seattle as well as visited Olympic National Park and Mt. Rainier. Loved our stay!
Very nice home with beautiful views of oyster bay.
Had a great stay, enjoyed having the beach and all the chairs provided. Thanks!
This property is truly beautiful and offers all the privacy I was looking for in a vacation rental! Rod was very communicative throughout my stay, kind and so considerate of me and my pet’s needs. I hope to visit again sometime soon.
Our family enjoyed staying at Oyster Bay Manor. We enjoyed the kayaks and outdoor gathering spaces especially.
This was a wonderful experience for our family. The perfect place to escape from the Arizona heat for a few weeks this July. Rod was amazing to work with and the property is top notch. Super clean, wonderful water access, comfortable bedding, lovely kitchen etc. I have nothing but good things to say!
Thank you Rod for greeting my upon arrival. It was so kind when you noticed I was by myself and made sure that I felt safe being alone. Took time to show me how to work everything. Toured the outside and inside. Your home was so beautiful and warming. I didn’t want to leave. I will be coming back in the future. I recommend this for everyone I was able to swim and enjoy the 90 degree weather and read my book and enjoy the view on a rainy day. The view location was breathtaking. Thank you for opening your home
Our family owned this beautiful home for nearly 50 years before passing it on to Rod 14 years ago. My two sisters and I were thrilled to find it on VRBO. Our stay was magical. It smelled so clean, dust-free, with wood and glass gleaming. The updates are beautiful improvements, lovingly restored. The beautiful view and beach trail hasn’t changed. We sisters, now in our 70’s, slept in our old bedrooms, giggling as if we were school children. The beds were dressed as European soft fluffy pristine white feather duvets, so deliciously comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed for a family picnic when the grandchildren came over for an afternoon. We are so grateful to have had this special time gathered around the kitchen table, having meals on the deck, and reminiscing in the beautiful living room. Thank you Rod.
One can tell that host Rod takes care of this gem tucked in Oyster Bay. It was a great fit for our family —- 4 generations — 10 months to 82 years. The house has personality that welcomed us home after day trips to Gig Harbor, Bainbridge Island, Port Townsend, and Seattle. Outside areas provided for sunrise coffee moments, relaxing kayaking, and evening reminiscings. 5 Stars ⭐️
