Lovely home with a fabulous view
Being on the water is so relaxing... the birds, the view changes with the tide. The house is spacious, very clean and the king beds in every room is wonderful. We would stay here again.

Nice getaway
Overall this property checked all the boxes that we were looking for! I would recommend it to any family looking to take in incredible views and very quiet property! Looking forward to staying there again
The location is beautiful and the outdoor setting is wonderful. The floors were pretty dirty however, my poor crawling baby had black knees, hands and feet from crawling around. The floors just need some good mopping. Other than that the house is clean.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the location and outdoor setting of the home. However, we're truly sorry to learn that the floors were not as clean as they should have been, especially with your little one crawling around. We completely understand how important a clean and safe environment is for your family. We'll continue to work closely with both our local staff and the homeowner to make improvements to this home. We hope this experience won’t deter you from staying with us again.

Peaceful, Private Gem!
Welcoming home with everything you need, including seasonings! Comforting and enjoyable inside or out! If you come without plans you would love just staying here. Local and easy access to plenty of amenities in town and places to shop or eat.
We loved it! The house living area was very large and the back yard was just wonderful. It was completely fenced in for the dogs and it was so private we couldn't see any neighbors!

We always enjoy the view
This will be our 4th time to stay at the home. We really enjoyed it as always. All of the interior walls could really use a paint job.

Wonderful place to stay
We were a family with 3 adult children staying while we had some work done to our house. What a joy it is to wake up each morning and see the beautiful view. The house was plenty big for all 5 of us. We took walks over to Raft Island and our son took out our kayaks as well. We would definitely stay again!
Overall it was a great experience! The home is beautiful and had all the things we needed for a comfortable stay. It was a very cool property with some out buildings that made us curious to know the history of it. Seemed like maybe a bit of a homestead which we loved. The area felt secluded but in a way that still felt very safe. We could see renting it again as well as “little tides” so some more family could come. The living room and kitchen were great for entertaining a large group.(The tv was a bit glitchy off and on but it was not a big deal.)
was amazing!! Very comfortable and peaceful. Plenty of room to roam inside and out. Well appointed furnishings. The vinyl collection was eclectic and diverse. And a jukebox!!! Will definitely stay again when visiting Gig Harbor.

Beautiful and quiet. Great location and would most definitely stay again when visiting the south sound. Our yorkie had a great time and met some nice dogs next door. Actually the only neighbor we saw.
One complaint: the water system is poor. Hard to control shower temp to the point it is frustrating.
What a great home to stay in, enjoy the water and views, and take in the amazing record collection. The jukebox is there too, with an excellent selection of music, but it was so enjoyable to listen to entire albums. There is an excellent "listening chair" looking straight out to the water, with the doors wide open. Walks on the beach and kayaking rounded out a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. I'll be back!
