Travellers describe Waterfront Home, Solarium & Hot Tub, Kayaks, Close to Seattle and Olympic Mtns as a spacious waterfront retreat with beautiful views and abundant gathering areas, popular amenities like the solarium, kayaks and hot tub, and a responsive host.
Guests often highlight its suitability for large groups, noting plenty of sleeping options, multiple tables, and a well-equipped kitchen, plus a separate guesthouse. Many describe an old, rustic property with sloping floors and quirky layouts, and some areas feel dated. Recurring issues include intermittent hot tub problems and occasional maintenance or cleanliness concerns such as loose fixtures, tricky lighting or breakers, septic limitations, and the need for deeper cleaning in spots. Expect a scenic, activity-rich, group-friendly stay in a characterful older home.

The lovely traditional log house and it's additional guesthouse served as a perfect hub for our annual family reunion. Dining tables and plentiful seating arrangements indoors and out were comfy for relaxing conversations. The kayaks and paddleboard kept the adventurers happy while others played pool or croquet back on shore. Or visit was delightful and we hope to return again soon.Judy and Mike

We enjoyed saying at Dave's cabins, which very comfortably hosted a group of 14 people between the two cabins. The solarium is lovely, especially in the morning, and we enjoyed kayaking. There is lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and it's a very comfortable property to gather on. The neighbors were great and gave us tips for local activities and events! With a larger group, we made sure to spread out showers due to the septic system. The lights were tricky for us to figure out - Dave let us know a breaker was out but is now fixed. There are clear notes with rules, safety procedures, and contact info in convenient places, so it was easy to remember and follow them!

We had so much fun staying here! We spent a lot of time looking at wildlife out on the water. The hot tub was broken for most of our stay which sucked because sitting in the tub looking out at the view was incredible! If you are planning on doing any cooking maybe think about bringing things you REALLY need like a sharp knife or a spatula. They had almost everything but have just seen a lot of love (: Kayaks and paddle board were great! Sitting in the solarium was so peaceful! We would def come back

Stunning views of the bay watching bald eagles, harbor seals, otters, canada geese and other sea life enjoying beautiful spring weather. So fun to kayak and enjoy the inlet. The large depression era home with solarium easily accommodated 6 adults and 5 children when all together. We fully utilized the cottage house for a family of five. The home is old and thus a bit quirky with the 2nd floor sloping at angles. Everything about the house added to it's coziness. Cooking utensils in abundance. We utilized the bbq and spa Needed to perform additional cleaning before use, and all burners were not firing up or jets working properly but issues were annoying not game changing. I would not hesitate to return to the home again for a very comfortable vacation stay.

This rustic log home was a charming delight! Plenty of room for everyone with the added guest quarters. Multiple dining tables and meeting options. The grounds were beautiful with freshly mowed grass and easy access to the waterfront. Kayaks and paddle board at the ready. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and would rent again, with one condition. One of the draws to this home was the hot tub. It’s beautiful! You can sit in it and enjoy the open view of Puget Sound. Except that it was sandy and hadn’t had the appropriate chemical treatment. It was so musty and mildew smelling! Only one of our members got in, immediately got out and needed to shower. All of us could smell the mildew on her wet body in the house. If the owners would keep it treated and free from sand, this would be 5 starts all around!!

Great stay and everything was as advertised. We have stayed here with our family once in the past and everyone agrees that this a great space to keep coming back to. Looking forward to next year and hoping to book an extra night so there is more time to enjoy the great amenities. Thanks again for having us!

This was an awesome spot for my wedding weekend. With kayaks, paddle boards, hot tub and games there was little time for boredom. We used the solarium for getting ready the morning of the wedding and it set a perfect vibe for my day. We had a small water leak the first day under the sink and Dave was quick to head our way and get it fixed. The floors and walls do slope and the doors slam if you let them close on their own but that added character.

Had a great reunion with friends at this group friendly property. Lots of great gathering places in the main house, the game room, and the sunroom. Plenty of spaces for quiet reflection, reading, or a cup of coffee as you watched the wildlife all about. Our group enjoyed the outdoor fire pit the most as we re connected each night over a beverage. Excellent and responsive owner/host who replied to inquiries promptly and gave us good advice for catching the ferry into Seattle. Nice stay for us!

Cleanliness
Cleanliness and upkeep are mixed: several note areas needing deeper cleaning and maintenance (e.g., sandy or musty hot tub, loose toilet, tricky lighting/breakers, and septic limitations), while others found the home clean and orderly. Expect an older property where occasional fixes may be required.

Overall the houses and property are nice. The main house is quite old and has some quirks. Door latches don't latch well. Difficult figuring out the light switches etc. Only shower in main house is downstairs, and takes at least 3 minutes to get hot water. Also desperatly needs a good cleaning. Also the toilet rocks back when you sit on it. Great view of the bay, and access to the water. Plenty of parking. Some bushes on one side of the driveway have grown about a third of the way out into the driveway, so you can't avoid having then hit the side of your vehicle as you drive past.

First impression is the spacious inside where there was room to accommodate everyone comfortably. The house was clean, well stocked, great attention to detail, fabulous views and perfect in every way. It was a perfect place to sit back and relax. We did all our own cooking and found all we needed was provided. It was also easy access to the ferry and Seattle for out of owners who wanted to do a bit of sightseeing. Thank you for helping us make lots of memories.

Four families (14 total adults and teens) stayed here Labor Day weekend 2024. The older main house is large and comfortable. The electrical system is a mix of ages though. I think the kitchen only had one outlet for a 3-prong plug. The main house has three big tables plus a fourth small table. We had a jigsaw puzzle on the small table and board games running on the other tables. It's unusual to have that much space in a vacation rental. The guest house is a converted garage. You'll need to walk through the first bedroom to get to the second bedroom. The inlet on Puget Sound is quiet. Watching the morning wildlife (otters, seals, and birds) and paddling around in the kayaks was fun.

The property and general house was great! Not sure what you have going with the septic. That is definitely a problem that should be addressed. However the extra house and beach properties were a great fit for our family. Brought back many wonderful memories of living on the beach in Gig Harbor

My family spent Christmas here and it was ny nephews first Christmas! We had a wonderful time and there was enough space for everyone (8 adults, 1 baby, 1 dog) wothoutit feeling cramped. There were 3 tables which made doing a puzzle easy without having to clean up/move and the hot tub was wonderful! A few cleanliness issue (rat traps, ants) but the pros outweighed the cons. Unfortunately the hdmi ports had been damaged by previous guests so we were cautious about plugging in our items but gave us more family time to play board games. The host was wonderful and everyone loved their stay a remarkable view. Thanks Dave for making this possible!

It was a nice property and good stay, however all beds need new mattresses, hot tub only half jets work, toilet in main floor is very loose, sumo alarm goes off a lot even though only dishwasher was running, never had showers while there. Guest house has no dishes and can’t use dishwasher there. Air conditioner is only available in two rooms in main house. Lots of signs and rules all over, was kind of funny! Probably wouldn’t stay here again.

We stayed here for 3 nights for a "first cousin" reunion. There were 13 of us from around the country. It ended up being the perfect spot! Beautiful setting on the water, lots of spaces to gather in large and small groups, big kitchen, kayaks, and room for outdoor games. There was a second fridge in the guest house which was very helpful. Most guests found the beds acceptable, with the exception of one couple who felt strongly that the mattress needed to be replaced. We hope to stay here again sometime!

We had a wonderful time with our adult children and their girlfriends/spouses. The place was clean and the kitchen well stocked! The house is "rustic" and we would joke that it was a step up from Boy Scout camp. We loved the old house and appreciated the newer building too! This is a great place for a laid back family gathering. Not fancy or new but definitely charming and quirky. The solarium was great for dinner and games. We would definitely come back again!

We enjoyed our family get together. The waterfront home met our expectations. While the accommodations and layout of bedrooms and bathrooms are perhaps a bit quirky and needs updating, the kitchen is well stocked for cooking, seating and dinning areas plentiful, and lots of beds to choose from. Certainly the views of the sound are excellent and time spent chatting around the fire pit was amazing....

Easy access to the beach made our stay exactly what we were hoping for. The beach exists even at high tide so there was always an opportunity to be beachfront. We had kids in our group and their favorite part was simply beach combing. The house met all our needs and had plenty of towels available, which our group appreciated!

We had a wonderful stay! The beach is so fun and the house worked well for us! It was in the mid-high 80s and with the owner's guidance on keeping it cool, it stayed comfortable. The owner is very quick to respond to any questions and concerns. The little welcoming touches were appreciated (sugar in the sugar bowl, plenty of dishes, lots of fans, etc).

We stayed here for our big family vacation. Two parents in their 50s, a bunch of 20 somethings, and two small children. The house is very old and funky, but we liked its character. The view out the back and the ability to do different things (kayak, paddleboard, firepit, hot tub,walk around) was great. We chose this area because it was reasonably close to Seattle by ferry, Mount Rainier, and Olympic National Park. Owner Dave is top-notch. Timely communication all throughout the trip and even came to the property to help with an issue. Highly recommend.

Dave was easy to communicate with, even at the last minute. A huge thanks to Dave for accommodating a last minute ask for friends who had lost power after a recent severe storm in the PNW. Space is perfect for large group of friends and family. Great location not far from Seattle, making travel easy for all. We loved the water views and kayaks!

We loved our stay and Dave was very responsive and helpful when needed! Yes, it is a very old house, and there are some things that you can tell, but we still had a fantastic time and a great space to gather with family or friends!

My husband and I and our adult aged kids enjoyed a wonderful time ringing in the new year at this spacious, well equipped home. We all enjoyed spending time in the beautiful solarium watching the eagles and seals and curling up with a good book. The instructions for the property were clear and concise and answered all of our questions. Dave was a clear and very responsive communicator as well. If you have a large group , this is an ideal place to stay with both buildings available. We loved the character of the house and enjoyed our time immensely. It certainly would be fun to go back in the summer time ! I would definitely recommend this property!

This charming log home and bonus huge bedroom and playroom accommodated our three kids & grandkids comfortably. We wisely hedged our weather bet by ensuring indoor options, but happily had two good days that satisfied our hopes for hot tubbing, beachcombing and kayaking (3 and a rowboat came with the property). Seals, bald eagles and shifting tides balanced convenient urban entertainment. Appliances and mattresses were all new, TV and internet were excellent when we weren't kayaking or enjoying the atrium, playing pool, ping pong, playing cards or enjoying an evening before an outdoor fire. The owners were responsive and flexible, and everything was kept up and well signed. One of our best for a large family!

A great out of the way location. Great view of Dyes Inlet with seas and herons. Beautiful sunsets. Good kayaking ar hi tide. Easy access to local parks, Bremerton, Poulsbo, Silverdale and Port Orchard. Worked out great for 8 adults and three dogs with the additional guest house. Lovedi being able to pick pears and plums just feet from the house. Dave the host was readily available.

This was an awesome spot for my wedding weekend. With kayaks, paddle boards, hot tub and games there was little time for boredom. We used the solarium for getting ready the morning of the wedding and it set a perfect vibe for my day. We had a small water leak the first day under the sink and Dave was quick to head our way and get it fixed. The floors and walls do slope and the doors slam if you let them close on their own but that added character.

Had a great reunion with friends at this group friendly property. Lots of great gathering places in the main house, the game room, and the sunroom. Plenty of spaces for quiet reflection, reading, or a cup of coffee as you watched the wildlife all about. Our group enjoyed the outdoor fire pit the most as we re connected each night over a beverage. Excellent and responsive owner/host who replied to inquiries promptly and gave us good advice for catching the ferry into Seattle. Nice stay for us!

This house is right on the bay with salmon jumping and eagles standing on the beach right outside of the house. Great place to watch the wildlife.

First impression is the spacious inside where there was room to accommodate everyone comfortably. The house was clean, well stocked, great attention to detail, fabulous views and perfect in every way. It was a perfect place to sit back and relax. We did all our own cooking and found all we needed was provided. It was also easy access to the ferry and Seattle for out of owners who wanted to do a bit of sightseeing. Thank you for helping us make lots of memories.

Four families (14 total adults and teens) stayed here Labor Day weekend 2024. The older main house is large and comfortable. The electrical system is a mix of ages though. I think the kitchen only had one outlet for a 3-prong plug. The main house has three big tables plus a fourth small table. We had a jigsaw puzzle on the small table and board games running on the other tables. It's unusual to have that much space in a vacation rental. The guest house is a converted garage. You'll need to walk through the first bedroom to get to the second bedroom. The inlet on Puget Sound is quiet. Watching the morning wildlife (otters, seals, and birds) and paddling around in the kayaks was fun.

Quiet, waterfront property with lots of outdoor stuff to do if weather is cooperating. Loved the game room and the sun room, comfy couches when weather was a little rainy. Close to all kinds of nightlife, walking trails etc. House was rustic but very comfortable.

This place was exactly as advertised and met all expectations. It is centrally located to Olympic National Park, Seattle and Mount Rainier. We only scratched the surface of the things to do in this area. The evening sunsets are great and just hanging around the house was a vacation experience in itself. We had a group of seven adults and everyone said that this was the best trip we've had together yet.

We enjoyed our family get together. The waterfront home met our expectations. While the accommodations and layout of bedrooms and bathrooms are perhaps a bit quirky and needs updating, the kitchen is well stocked for cooking, seating and dinning areas plentiful, and lots of beds to choose from. Certainly the views of the sound are excellent and time spent chatting around the fire pit was amazing....
