Beautiful stay over the holiday.

We came to Gig Harbor to visit family and we always love a view. This particular view was spectacular, the property was absolutely clean (one of my high priority criteria), and there was everything you needed. We were there for 11 nights, and I hosted my family on more than one occasion. We arrived at night and that was probably the only time we questioned anything because it was quite dark and we were quite tired. But we were triumphant, the directions were appropriate and I would recommend this property to anyone. The host Steve was absolutely delightful. Not that we had lots of contact with him but when we did it was completely professional. A few people mentioned that the bathrooms were small. But it was not a problem for us. The heating was excellent and it was quite cold.

Fantastic stay on Henderson Bay!

We absolutely loved our week stay here! From the moment we walked through the front door and saw the wall of windows, we knew we made the right choice. Stunning views! We saw wildlife throughout the week (bald eagle, blue heron, ducks, deer, raccoons, kingfisher, bats and of course a ton of seagulls). It was such a relaxing time away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The cabin was very clean. The linens were a nice quality. The kitchen was well-equipped. The sleep number bed in the master bedroom was so comfortable, we're seriously considering buying one for ourselves! The bathrooms are pretty small, but we love having two bathrooms while on vacation. We ended up just using the tub/shower for showering because the master shower was the size of a motorhome shower, and too small for comfort. The other one was totally doable. The outside deck is huge, and partially covered, making it great for taking the dogs out to potty. We appreciated the dog potty area right off the deck. It was so easy to access for our older dogs that don't climb stairs as easily as they used to. Steve, the owner, was so easy to work with. He is very responsive, friendly and accommodating. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay here in the future. Highly recommend!

Even more than expected

Pictures didn't do justice...even more beautiful in person. Whether sunshine or rain, a lovely place to be. The whole house was perfect....everything was there. Enjoyed the artwork and quality of everything (pots, pans, couch, and amazing bed). Clearly owner cares about providing the best possible experience. Communication with Steve fantastic. Planning our next trip.
