This house was perfect for our annual family get-away. The grandkids spent hours exploring the beach and playing in the water within sight of the patio. The layout of the bedrooms allowed all the kids to have one wing and adults the other. The kids even had their own family room to play in.

This was the perfect place for our annual family gathering - right on the water with enough different spaces for kids and adults to gather and enjoy each others' company in small groups or all together. Loved watching the ferry as well as looking for the seal that visited regularly.

Best place we've stayed.

Our family gets together every year and this was the best place we've stayed. We kayaked during the day and relaxed to sunsets across the water in the evening. We were even lucky enough to see orcas one morning. It's a great place to relax and hang out.

What a gem. This place was truly magical. The kitchen is very well stocked which is helpful since it’s a somewhat rural location and restaurants are a bit of a drive. They thought of many little details that made our stay very enjoyable. Shannon was very pleasant to communicate with and prompt. We had a fire every night with high tide and it felt like we were surrounded by the ocean. Lots of memories made. Thank you!!

The property did not disappoint. There were 10 of us 7 adults and 3 kids. Very spacious and well stocked. Absolutely amazing setting the view early morning and evening and Harron Island ferry was so charming to watch. Literally on the water during high tide. Water came up to the bulkhead. Our group did a lot of paddle boarding. Occasional sea lion sighting. We hope to be back, Shannon was super responsive and a wonderful host.

Wonderful!

The LakeBay house was perfect for our family of 12. The views are stunning! Most had a chance to kayak and walk the beach. We enjoyed the two gathering spaces and outside areas. The kitchen has everything a large group could need and Communication was great.

Excellent multi-generational stay!

Our family (7 adults, one toddler, one 5 year-old) had a delightful time at this house. Communication with Shannon was excellent. House was clean and the property was splendid! Cannot describe how lovely it was to watch the tidal change, to enjoy the wildlife and watch both the Olympic games in the TV room, and the Olympic mountains from the patio.

Family reunion

Delightful location adjacent to the water. Enjoyed the kayaking, walking along the beach exploring the big daily tidal flows. Lots of local venues to visit in nearby towns. Easy access to grocery stores in Gig Harbor. The house is spacious and well furnished and comfortable for a big group, 5 adults and 3 kids. Thank you Shannon.

Would recommend to anyone 11/10!

First of all this place has gorgeous views and great amenities like you’re staying with a family member. The house is fully stocked with everything you need to host a family holiday dinner. The host is spectacular and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. I will be coming back and booking this listing again. MAHALO!

Birthday celebration

We rented this home to celebrate my Mother’s 90th birthday. It was a beautiful home with magnificent views. The home owner responded to our needs in a timely manner and the home was well equipped with everything we needed to make our trip memorable. Thank you so much!

Annual Family Vacation

Wonderful property right on the beach. Very hot weather and had some issues sleeping. Wish there was some type of cooling system in the house where the bunks are located. Otherwise it is perfect.

We instantly marveled at the beauty and qualities of our on-line find. Could not give this home and it’s host a high enough rating. So much so that after one night we booked another stay for next year. Thank you Shannon. We all loved our stay.

Wonderful waterfront house for a large family gathering

We gathered family members from multiple states for Thanksgiving. The house has a well-landscaped outdoor deck, perched right on south Puget Sound. Very picturesque. The kitchen was nicely equipped and the bedrooms easily accommodated our group of ten. We used the two kayaks several times and also hiked on the beach. I really recommend this for a large group wanting a pretty natural setting.

On the Water Oasis

We could not have had more fun spending time with friends and family here over Easter weekend. The house is beautiful, comfortable, and has plenty of space. The kids loved the bunkroom, reading nook, and running all over the beach. The weather was not that great, but we still enjoyed walking the beach, watching the ferry, and the views of the mountain. Communication was so easy and Shannon so attentive and kind. We will definitely be back in warmer months.

Great extended family getaway

We have stayed twice at this Lakebay waterfront home with our family of four adults in our 60s, five adults in their 30s, and a baby and toddler. The space allows for everyone to be comfortable, with good areas for people to hang out together or have privacy. The baby was able to crawl around without getting into trouble. We did a lot of cooking and found all we needed. The view over the water is pretty. Short walk on the beach is nice, though you quickly get to private property. The kayaks are delightful.

Labor Day getaway

This home is a find for families and friends who want to relax by the water! The owners who we were in contact with us were so responsive and kind and their house me was perfect for our friends and family annual getaway. We used their kayaks as well as our own and got out on the water daily. We loved watching the Ferry go by (so quiet and calming to see), and just relaxing on their back deck. The home has so many places to spread out and gather and be close and also not have everyone underfoot. Thank you! Beds comfortable and clean home also! We hope to be back.

Wonderful place to host a get together

We had an absolutely wonderful time at this property! It was the perfect place to relax and spend quality time with family and friends (including toddlers and young kids). The home is beautifully maintained, with a stunning waterfront view that truly takes your breath away.The location is fantastic, with a nearby beach and state park providing plenty of opportunities for outdoor fun and exploration. The proximity to the ferry for Herron Island made it easy to enjoy a quick adventure.The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating, which added to the overall positive experience. Everything about the property exceeded our expectations, and we can’t wait to return for another memorable getaway. Highly recommended!

Perfect family getaway location

I love this home. It is 100% as advertised. We had 7 adults & 4 kids under 10 in our group & this home was the perfect fit. Plenty of indoor space with two separate living areas, a well stocked kitchen & well spaced bedrooms made the one rainy day enjoyable. The outdoor space is fabulous. On the one sunny day we had dinner outside & a bonfire. The beach holds many treasures & the watching the ferry come & go is just an added bonus. Thanks to Shannon for making our experience so smooth!

A wonderful weekend away

We had a lovely time at Shannon's place. Communication was quick and no problems at all. The house is a proper vacation/family home and very comfortable. Space for all 12 of us. Makes such a difference having plenty of crockery and cutlery and dishtowels, glasses etc. Beds were comfy. The outside area will be a real treat in the summer but we still made it count with an bonfire every night. Watching the ferry and the tide come in and out - just lovely. The lights and cosy outdoor bar area work well to give it that relaxed, home away from home vibe. Thanks again!

Shannon, i’m sure you hear this a lot, but want to say it that this was such a gift to us to stay at your place these last five nights. Thank you so much for being flexible and accommodating to us.We are looking forward to our stay next year and thank you for working with Lynn to help. Keep the price down in a range we can afford..I think the only ask that would help us is if the bedroom that has the double bed could be upgraded to a queen, but that is just an ask as we know keeping this place running must be quite a financial challenge for you.Oh, the barbecue worked great!Steve Lee425-652-1759 well look for the orcas.
