This was a little slice of heaven. Views from every room! There were so many wonderful touches. All the cafe lights at night added a warm touch as well. I could return here again and again. The kayaks and paddle boards were perfect for paddling will seals all around us. Can’t wait to return. Also, the communication with host was excellent which made our trip that much nicer

Relaxing getaway retreat

We booked this rental for a quick weekend getaway and couldn’t be more impressed with how cozy the house was. The views of the water cannot be missed! The check-in process was easy and simple. The host was kind enough to let us check in an hour early. The kitchen was well stocked for our party of seven with plenty of cups, wine glasses, plates, etc. We cooked our meals in the kitchen and had a great time! We will definitely return another time for a longer stay.

Mom's 75th Birthday!

My family and I stayed here to celebrate our mothers 75th birthday. Our expectations were exceeded big time. Amazing home with everything you could ever need plus more. The owners left us an amazing gift basket full of goodies and a custom made coffee mug with our mothers name on it, wow! We all had a really terrific time there and it was perfect. Between barbecuing, kayaking, sitting by the fire, listening to wildlife and enjoying each others company we stayed busy. Home was extremely clean, comfortable and the entire process was very easy. Highly recommend and would stay here again in a heart beat. Thank you so much!!

Such a peaceful and beautiful place to relax and unwind! Spent hours just sitting on the deck and porch listening to the birds and the gentle sound of the waves. Saw seals everyday, deer that walked the beach, and dolphins across on the far side! On the clear nights (which was most of them!!), the stars and moon were just amazing! We took the kayaks out a couple of times ( pay attention to the wind/current forecast) and saw bald eagles when we paddled into the lagoon by the market. The house was perfectly set up for us and allowed us to have our own space and privacy. Loved all the windows facing the water and falling asleep to the sound of the waves! Beds were super comfortable and kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to cook meals. Yes, there are two flights of stairs down to the house and the downstairs shower is a bit small, but we are in our 60s and had no problems at all! We are already talking about returning for another stay!! Definitely recommend this place for folks wanting the beauty of nature and peace and quiet!!

Beautiful location on the beach, stocked very well from games to throw blankets to kitchen ware and pantry. Spacious and open - enough beds/bedrooms for 4 adults and 2 or 3 kids. Several outdoor areas up & downstairs to enjoy the beach view, all with different seating & vibes. Easy access from the Seattle area, and easy drive to Gig Harbor for a visit or Southworth for the ferry.

We had a fantastic weekend at this oceanfront house! The view was absolutely stunning—waking up to the sound of the waves and sipping coffee on the deck was pure bliss.

Breathtaking views from a beautiful property!

What a magical place! We lucked out with a beautiful weather weekend, but we truly enjoyed the inside of this home just as much as the outside. Beautiful, modern decor, comfy beds and an awesome view from every room. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need, and eating around the fire table on the patio was the perfect way to enjoy our meals. We loved the daybed swing and the fact that we could enjoy it rain or shine. The owners were so helpful and kind, and we could not recommend this place more highly! All the stars.

LOVED IT! The views out the window from any room (except bathrooms) are incredibly relaxing. I had a different property booked that I ended up canceling due to host's lack of honesty on his property description and got this one last minute. I'm so glad that happened now or I wouldn't get to stay at this gem. It accommodated well our family of ages 0-62. There's no insane check-out chores list which is another nice stand out. I can't wait to go back and stay longer in the summer.

Perfect for a family vacation

This is a lovely home perfect for a family vacation. It is situated right on the water with easy access for kayaking and paddleboarding. We loved the decks, both up and down, with seating to view all the wildlife activity and a firepit table for entertaining. Close to Gig Harbor and the ferries to Seattle and north, we were able to explore this beautiful are area of WA.

Beach Trip 2024

The views from basically anywhere in or outside the house are phenomenal! I got one of the best sleeps I've had in a vacation home listening to the tide come in and out, along with the light patter of rain on the roof. The outdoor features of the home were the cherry on top, so to speak. Laying on the outdoor bed swing after a 4 day backpacking trip was truly amazing, along with sitting at the waters edge soaking our feet in the sound. Dinner on the deck at sunset rounded out the stay. 5* accommodation; would highly recommend to anyone.

Waterfront Gem

This property lived up to its listing and more. The house is well appointed, updated and comfortable. On our trip it was 2 couples and the 2 main bedrooms are separated and private. We enjoyed the deck with fire table and the wood burning fire pit the most. Not far is Gig Harbor and many fun things to do.

About the host

Hosted by Laurie McKenna (Crescent Valley Beach House)

John and Laurie are long time locals to the area and love to host guests to their little slice of heaven. Both have been in the customer service industry for over 30 years and truly love to show off all that Olalla Bay Getaway (OGB) and the Olalla/Gig Harbor area has to offer.

Why they chose this property

OGB is a unique waterfront property that boasts incredible views any time of year and privacy not typical to a short term rental. The home has been fully furnished with modern, comfortable furniture that aims to provide a special getaway. Our guests comment on seeing a variety of wildlife while visiting and no matter the weather you will see stunning views from every living space. Although close to Gig Harbor (10 mins) and all its great restaurants, shops and activities you will feel a million miles away at this private oasis.

What makes this property unique

2 outdoor living spaces provide all the room you and your group will need to spend quality time together including: The main level deck has a round table with a propane fire and comfortable couch that together can each seat 6 people. The real guest favorite is the covered space on the ground floor that has a couch swing and additional comfy chairs for hot summer days, cold winter nights and everything in between!
In addition, OBG has 3 kayaks that are available just steps from the water which allow you to get up and close with the amazing Colvos Passage and its stunning views and wildlife.
Finally, you will find an outdoor firepit with adirondack chairs to spend your evenings around and marveling at the night sky.
