Well appointed home, lovely setting by the tidal inlet with access to kayaks and the water. Very peaceful.
Well decorated and well maintained property in a beautiful setting. Will stay again.
We live in Gig Harbor but rented this house to celebrate my stepdaughter’s 16th birthday. Her friends had fun paddle boarding and soaking up the sun. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The only mishap was 3 different people got lost trying to locate the house using the Maps app on the iPhone. It worked fine on Google maps but apparently the iPhone map was sending people in another direction. Nothing the owner can control but just something to be aware of. We definitely plan to come back next summer!
Our family enjoyed the beach and kayaks. It was a quiet, lovely spot.
The deck, the view, the beach access, the hot tub … we could not have asked for more! This was exactly the weekend getaway we’d hoped for. The owner is kind and accommodating. The home is thoughtfully and comfortably furnished - great beds! Shopping and dining in cute downtown Gig Harbor was fantastic. We can’t wait to come back!
Had a great experience with the rental and would stay there again.
We loved the view to the water. The open floor plan and large windows. All the little things our hosts provided. It was wonderful .....we will be back to enjoy again!
Nice relaxing trip- gave 4 stars to accuracy of online listing as I had to call customer service as unable to access or pay 2nd payment through VRBO. I had to download a 3rd party app. We use VRBO for all of our getaways and this is the first time I had to use a 3rd party. Not convenient.
Quiet place on the water, beautiful sunrises, watched harbor seals play right in front of us! Tide goes all the way out in late afternoon revealing lots of sea treasures for the kids to find. Water is calm and warm!
Great place with a beautiful view.
