We enjoyed staying at this wonderful home while visiting family in Gig Harbor. The environment was beautiful and peaceful, and we very much hope to return. I consider myself a tough critic, so my top-notch rating of this rental really means that it is terrific in every way!

This is such an amazing property!

This property is extremely well taken care of and very charming. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony having coffee in the mornings watching the squirrels in the trees and spent the evenings sitting right on the water. Great stay!

Beautiful property with friendly, attentive hosts.

Thank you for the home away from home stay. It was perfect!

Very nice place. Looks just like it looks online. Great location for us.

We stay at many VRBO locations and this has been one of the best. Michelle and her husband could not have been more accommodating and the property is excellent in every way. The only drawback for us is that we are seniors and the stairs are always a challenge! HIGHLY recommend this property.

Our stay here has been perfect, down to the last detail. We have a comfortable, expansive, raised deck with a gorgeous view of the surrounding forest and Burley Lagoon in Puget Sound. A short walk of a couple hundred feet gives us beach access along the bay, with frequent views of eagles and blue herons. And the inside decor is beyond charming -- every piece has a uniqueness that carries a magical quality. We have a full kitchen with pantry staples, washer/dryer, and Wifi with a Samsung TV. And the hosts, Ken and Michelle, are extraordinarily welcoming and accommodating. Nearby are beautiful beachwalks at four state parks (Manchester, Penrose, Joemma, and Kopachuck). Definitely five stars.

The house was clean and comfortable and cozy during my winter stay. The hosts were quick to address the one major concern that came up during my extended stay. The location is pretty and quiet, easy to get to, with the minor downside of not much within walking distance. Easy short drives to anything you might need though! I enjoyed sitting on the balcony looking at the trees and the bay and overall it was perfect for a quiet getaway.

Looks even better in person! Perfect place to just relax and enjoy the beautiful area. Beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need.

We stayed at this property a few months ago for our anniversary. We loved it so much that we booked it again for Christmas. Such a relaxing and gorgeous vacation getaway. We look forward to returning again!

We had a wonderful stay with our daughter and two grandchildren for a week getaway. Large kitchen and great room were perfect for dining and gathering and spending times playing games. It’s the little things that make a five year old happy like the basket of sharpie pens that she discovered!! Since it was cold and rainy we didn’t have a chance to enjoy the beautiful veranda.

We loved our stay. Beautiful, quiet setting. Friendly owners were nearby and very helpful. We would love to come back!

I am a frequent VRBO renter and this is one of the best properties I have rented in my many years of PNW staycations. It checks off multiple boxes that makes it a memorable gem: a unique property, with cozy and spacious living spaces; a grand kitchen, master bedroom, master bath, and balcony; beauty in the details woven throughout the home; towering evergreens for seclusion; and kind, generous, gracious hosts. This property comes with an extra special bonus - it is a labor of love by the owners, Ken and Michelle, as they built it themselves. Ken poured the sparkling concrete counters that run throughout the kitchen, grace the floors of the balcony, and are the pathway that lead into the home. So much love and joy here. My husband and I had the most relaxing anniversary weekend in this luxurious home. We hope to make it our go-to Gig Harbor rental moving forward. There is no need to stay anywhere else. Thank you ever so much for a wonderful weekend, Ken and Michelle!

We had the most magical long weekend at this beautiful property. We checked in on a Thursday, eloped by the water on Friday and honeymooned until Tuesday. Michelle was an absolute gem. So excited for us and her and her husband so accommodating. We couldn’t have asked for a better time and plan to come back and celebrate the place we got married as often as we can. The guesthouse is beautiful. The views stunning and the gorgeous waterfront just steps away. We look forward to coming back soon!

The home is very comfortable, great kitchen, wonderful outdoor space, loved the decor. Highly recommend.

Beautiful property in a perfect location. You have access to the water and a short drive to downtown Gig Harbor. The check in process was easy, all questions were answered right away by the owners. Definitely would rent this again!

delightful location, beautiful landscaping and interior renovation and decorating. The lagoon is beautiful as well

Easy to find good location, great kitchen, very comfortable beds.

I rent a home every year for our vacation and this property was the perfect rental. The home was fully equipped and there wasn't any long notebook to read about the things you cannot do. Just a perfect home away from home!!!!! We couldn't have asked for anything more. Thank you for the 5 star stay. :-)

We really enjoyed our stay here. Their apartment is well appointed and decorated and very very clean. The location is excellent.

We enjoyed our stay! Excellent location and host. Located within 2 hours of Mt.Rainier and Olympic National Park. We hiked three different days of the week stay. Beds were cozy and kitchen fully stocked. House and furnishings were warm and comfortable. Felt like a beautiful tree house. Waterfront and beach were beautiful! Highly recommend to everyone. Park and ride easily accessible. Adult children flew in at different times and caught the Shuttle. Description was perfect.
