Great stay in Gig Harbor

Stayed here for the 4th of July weekend with some friends and it was an awesome stay. Plenty of space for everyone, great outdoor spaces for some grilling and lawn games, and close enough to town to go in for lunch/dinner and hang out by the water. Would absolutely stay here again!

Spacious and Comfortable Property

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!

About the host

Hosted by Erika

Host profile image
Jay and I have been hosting guests at this vacation rental for over 7 years now. He built the home to fit our family, and then they went on to have families of their own. It was difficult to think about releasing so we began hosting other big families and groups. It has been very rewarding for us and we hope that you will come have a stay in the near future so that you can enjoy it as much as we and others have in the past.

Why they chose this property

If you're looking for a place to fit family, extended family and/or friends, groups, etc; this is it! Comfortable, quiet but close to downtown Gig Harbor, Uptown Gig Harbor, Gig Harbor North and minutes to Tacoma and Bremerton.

What makes this property unique

Our unique features include great big bedrooms that have room for your whole group to roam comfortably. Although we sit on 2 1/2 acres of prestine seclusion, we are less than 5 minutes to the town of Gig Harbor, Gig Harbor North, Olalla and the beaches.
