About this property

38' Yacht equipped with luxury and kayaks!

Have a magical stay on the water in this wood-clad 38' boat: Gollywobbler. The galley comes complete with an hotplate, microwave and refrigerator. The bedroom features a sitting area, lots of storage space and a full size plus bed. An additional sleeping berth is an extra long roomier than normal twin. Lastly, the dining table lowers into a full bed. The back deck has two loungers for enjoying coffee or wine and watching the seals and harbor activity. Five kayaks are shared with other boats.
The space
Walk to coffees and dinner, stroll the harbor and check out the quaint shops, enjoy the use of the four kayaks, watch the seals and boats go by. The dining table makes into a double bed also. We offer five kayaks two of which are doubles! They are shared with the other boats.
Guest access
The net shed, other docks, and other boats are not included in this listing as they are all rented separately.
Other things to note
Occasionally there will be events/celebrations in the net shed. It’s too cool of a venue to not have parties in. Please feel free to walk through to access your boat. Know that we will comply with quiet hours at 10pm too. For safety, the propane oven has been disabled.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

It was a perfect getaway. Unique experience with shopping and restaurants just a walk away. Best part was when a large sea lion jumped out of the water and onto the dock just 50 ft. From our stern.Will definitely come back.

Unique stay in the heart of a cozy harbor town!

What a cool place to stay! The Blue Gollywobbler was a cute little boat and a really fun experience (our 9yo daughter absolutely loved it). We also really enjoyed being walking distance from numerous restaurant’s and breweries. Kayaking across to the lighthouse with the provided kayaks was a highlight!

The host was extremely welcoming and responsive. This was our second time on the boat. The first time was for our anniversary so just me and my husband. It was so amazing we wanted to bring our son. We relaxed, played games and went to the numerous restaurants and shops within walking distance. This time there was a harbor seal that took residence at the end of the dock each night and we saw a heron up near the boathouse. It was magical!

Great and delightful experience overall. Yacht is kept well and clean. Despite the cold weather, we were very confortable. Close poximity to restaurants, shops etc. Is a plus. We also got to see eagles, seagulls, comorants. herons etc... The host is prompt in responding to questions and provides clear information. We will certainly do this again.

Fun stay at a unique place

It was a fun place to stay and get the experience of staying on a small boat without leaving the harbor. The main bed in the bow is unusual and not that big and the grill on the dock is not very good, but it was a great experience overall. It's fun watching all the boats go by while sitting on the deck and watching movies at night in the comfortable cabin.
What a great name for a boat!

This was the perfect weekend getaway. We loved the clean, comfy interior and we soaked up the deck views as much as we possibly could. There’s no better way to enjoy a (complimentary!) bottle of wine or a cup of coffee. It was so nice to get a taste of boat life. We will definitely be back.

Great stay, even in the winter the boat was nice and warm. Lots of wildlife and boats coming and going, even had a visit from a seal. Very walkable location in gig harbor and great access driving to everything else. 10/10 will be back!

Fun experience

We stayed on this houseboat for Spring Break while visiting friends in the area. It was a highlight of our trip. A different lodging experience just to add extra fun to our visit. It was well appointed and has everything you need. The location is perfect and walkable to everything on the harbor. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

This was so much fun and way better than a hotel. We walked a lot, which was great, but we wanted to just stay in the boat and enjoy early morning coffee. It was fantastic.

Fantastic place to spend a few days in the PNW!

My 8-year-old and I loved this boat. We stayed on Lyla for three nights and the Blue Gollywobbler for one night. Both boats are great. The kayaks were used every day.

Our stay in Gig Harbor on the Golly Wobbler was a fantastic experience. The host, Michelle, communicated all necessary information in a timely and thoughtful manner. The boat was very clean and comfortable. Imagine long walks through a charming historic town, lots of great dining options, and evenings relaxing on the boat with a mug of tea or a glass of wine as you take in the incredible scenery…that’s a perfect getaway! Thank you!!
