About this property

NEW- Amazing Lighthouse Beach Waterfront Homes sleeps 14

Surround yourself with beachfront luxury in two of the most amazing homes in Gig Harbor. These homes were once owned by a very affluent family and used as their summer retreat. Featured in Sunset Magazine for their design and location in 1962 and updated by us in 2019 these homes are beyond amazing. Located on the lighthouse point, these two homes have everything you can imagine to vacation with your friends and family. Low bank waterfront on three sides means you are literally surrounded by water and sand beaches. Relax by the fire pit or sit and sip wine from the beach or one of the 3 decks while watching, seals, otters and the occasional whale play in the water. Watch the sun come up while gazing out over the water at Mt Rainer from your back deck and watch it set over the yachts in the harbor from your front deck. Wander over to the Gig Harbor Lighthouse, kayak to Tides Tavern or be picked up on your private dock by the Gondola for a romantic ride through the harbor. Fall asleep at night to the sound of the waves lapping on the beach and awake to water views while still tucked snuggly in your comfortable bed. Private deep water moorage means you can even bring your boat along.

7 Bedrooms, 2 kitchens, sauna, large living areas, fireplace, kayaks, 2 laundry rooms, deep water moorage, fire pit, horseshoes, swing, hammock, beach toys, family games, private beaches, and water water every where. Come play on the beach at Lighthouse Point and you will never want to leave. Please note, you must sign rental agreement be 25 years of age or older and provide picture ID upon request.

We had a wonderful stay at Lighthouse beach with our family of 12 adults and one child. The location was absolutely stunning. The two houses provided everything you could want for private and gathering spaces. We were able to gather together in chairs on the beach overlooking Puget Sound, sitting on the deck overlooking Gig harbor and in the large open air living area of one of the houses. Our young adults thoroughly enjoyed the provision of water craft. The sunrises and sunsets were gorgeous.We found Gig Harbor to be very charming with plenty of restaurants and shops to browse.We can't say enough about how helpful and accommodating Annie was during our stay.Thank you, Annie for sharing your wonderful paradise with us.Paula and Larry

Great family home

We had 3 families with young kids here for a weekend trip—this home was so superbly located and an idyllic spot for the kids. They had hours of fun on the beach, watching the geese and sea otters, canoeing to the restaurant across the harbor, swinging in the hammock, and exploring the nearby lighthouse. Annie was also extremely responsive to all my questions during the weekend!

This property was terrific! Plenty of personal space, living space and outdoor space for our group of 11 friends and family members. Communication with Annie was easy from start to finish. Once we were checked in, we had everything we needed to settle in for a week of fun and relaxation. None of us were familiar with harbor life and location of Annie’s houses gave us an experience of a lifetime. We spotted lots of wildlife including seals and bald eagles, and at low tide we were entertained by clams that spouted streams of water into the air like a fountain. We were awe struck each time we walked onto the decks to clearly see Mt. Ranier in all its majesty in the distance. What a gift! There were stunning views in all directionsfrom the abundance of glass used in the design of the houses. There was plenty of room for socializing as a group and ample space for private moments. Our group especially enjoyed the fire pit at night and I loved the sauna! Wish I was still there. Hope to return.

Washington wedding location for our extended family

Great check in process as navigating the entry in the dark would have been tough. Both houses were well stocked with kitchen and bath needs. The property was quiet and the natural sights were everywhere. Harbor seals, eagles, starfish…. Also our hosts were very attentive. We had a problem and they immediately addressed it in hours so that our wedding party weekend wouldn’t be impacted. Had a nice cookout on our last day and a few locals from our new family joined us by boat. A very special stay for us and a location that we’ll likely get back too.

Perfect Extended Family Getaway

Everyone loved this location for our family vacation. With 13 of us ranging in age from 10-80, there was always something to do. We enjoyed sitting on the decks, making smokes by the campfire, kayaking and paddle boarding, and using the well stocked kitchen. We also went on excursions to Seattle and Mt. Rainier from this location. Annie was very welcoming and helpful.

Perfect Getaway Location

Our trip including 3 adults 7 younger adults, ages 25 - 35 and was a combo 70th Bday celebration and family reunion. The setting could not be more beautiful! From inside the house and outside is a panoramic view of the harbor, hillsides, Mount Rainier, with an active harbor of wildlife and boating! Amazing sunsets and sunrises make for a spectacular experience! All that while being in close proximity to restaurants, grocery stores, shopping etc.

Our stay could not have been better Annie and her husband were easily reachable for check in and any other needs. The place was exactly as shown on the website but even more spectacular in person. We played with kayaks and SUPs with the friendly seals. The kids spent lots of time playing on the beach by the lighthouse and felt like the entire area was ours.great to have all sized life vests. Our kids are already asking to return! Thank you :)

Wonderful stay. House is well stocked with everything you would need. Beds were super comfy. Outstanding location with great views. Host was super helpful and responsive. They decorated for the holiday for us so we could have our family holiday celebration. There was 13 in total and we had a great time. Looking forward to returning in spring/summer. Definitely recommended for large groups or families. Such a relaxing weekend. It was great to have such a large space for the toddlers to run around in. Can’t say enough good things. Thank you

Luxurious waterfront property!

This location was perfect for our group. There are 2 buildings which allowed for the night owls to stay up without disturbing the others. The beds and rooms were all comfortable and clean. There is a very large table in one of the buildings which allowed us all to sit together for a meal we prepared at the property. Kitchens were very well stocked and had everything we needed. We were able to get out on the water with kayaks that were provided with the property. We also enjoyed sitting by the water with a fire at night. Communication with Annie was easy and there were no issues with our stay. Thank you!

Awesome Views

My family came from all over the country for a postponed 2020 wedding celebration for my daughter and her wife at the Historic 1625 Tacoma Place (highly recommend). We wanted to spend a few days by the water and this was just awesome. The owners were so friendly and helpful. Everything was comfortable and inviting. We ordered out and picked up food which worked well for us and was fairly close. Lots of places to eat out but we decided to stay in. Rain held off to give us one sunny day with a view of Mt Rainier and a beach bonfire in the evening. Saw one whale breech, seals every day, an osprey, falcon and bald eagle. Would love to return in the summer!

Just look at this place!

Both houses were clean, in good repair, well equipped. Annie is a fabulous host and offered extensive support and flexibility for us. We had a family reunion here and the two homes made it absolutely perfect as we had two places to reunite in smaller groups and with different activities. We also had a caterer come one night who prepared our dinner in one house while we played games and visited in the other house with appetizers. Aside from that, I think the pictures tell the rest of the story better than I can write. This is a special place that will imprint on anyone. A+ and five stars. Thank You, Annie.

Unmatched, one-of-a-kind waterfront experience

A huge thank you to our wonderful host, Annie, for making such an incredible stay possible. This stay simply cannot be beat. With beaches just feet away on BOTH sides of the property, the adjacent lighthouse park, firepit, viewing decks, there is no need to go back to your car. With a couple of paddleboards, several kayaks, and a canoe, we were able to easily cross the harbor, visit a brewery, and walk the town. We encountered seals, otters, jellyfish, and crabs. The views were breathtaking. The houses themselves were clean, spacious, and well-equipped. Beach toys, board games, ping pong, were all made available. It was truly special to be in a place where young children and even my 90 year old grandma could all find something to enjoy. It all made for a truly unforgettable vacation for my family and I. You can feel confident this place has all you need and that Annie goes above and beyond with providing any information, resources, or recommendations to make your stay the best it can be.

Wow - what a magical stay

Just much gratitude for the owners for sharing these amazing properties. We gathered for a reunion around our Mother's Birthday on Easter weekend. The owners were very helpful to us throughout the process. The location is magical. We enjoyed the seals, the kayaks, the night fires inside and out, and the unique varied beauty of each of the houses. The little town of Gig harbor offered some activities too. We had our local family visit us, created meals together, had multiple couples within our family constellation of three generations, many around the age of 30. Everyone had a good time. We ranged it age from 16 to 83. Only thing that was a bit challenging was getting the fire wood. We had to buy multiple bundles of wood wrapped in plastic which was a bit against the grain. Maybe there is a local source who would deliver us a bit of unwrapped wood rather? But it all worked out. Thank-you again and we would do it again.

About the host

Hosted by Ann Jolie

Host profile image
My husband and I live in Gig Harbor. We saw this property when it went up for sale and could not pass it up.

Why they chose this property

These two homes are at the end of the sand spit, next to the Light House in Gig Harbor. The sandy point separates the Harbor and Commencement Bay which gives you water and sandy beaches on three sides. It is amazing to be just steps from the water in both the backyard and frontward. There is so much sea life that you get caught up watching the seals play or the otters, eagles and geese make their way around. Commencement Bay is also a popular whale passage so do not be surprised if you catch sight of them breaching or hunting right in front one you. You can kayak or paddle board to Tides Tavern or many other waterfront restaurants and shopping from your front yard. This property was a family vacation compound for a very prestigious family. One of the homes was featured in a 1962 issue of Sunset magazine.We decided to invest our money in legacy properties that would stay in the family for years to come. Having a deep water boat dock and being in this prime location was a deal we could not let pass us by.

What makes this property unique

Watch Mt Rainer appear as the sun rises over the water in the front yard and watch it set over the water in the backyard. You can't beat that.
