About this property

Make long-lasting vacation memories at Serenity Bay Retreat

Tucked into quiet Filucy Bay, you'll find a spectacular home where you can make long-lasting vacation memories with your family and friends. Serenity Bay Retreat may take your breath away.

ABOUT SERENITY BY RETREAT

Don't let its rather modest entry fool you.

Once inside, you'll walk into a open-concept great room with a vaulted ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the wrap-around deck and Filucy Bay, as well as the meticulously designed, Pacific Northwest landscape with stone pathways and stairs to the water.

Creature comforts abound. A comfortable sectional is perfect for curling up with a book or joining the kids for a movie on the flat screen. The newly remodeled kitchen with brand new appliances has everything the chef might need to create a masterpiece, including a Ninja blender, herbs along the garden pathways, a fun cocktail set with recipe book, and a cookie waffle maker.

The first floor bedroom, with two twins and a full bed, is perfect for the kids, while the second floor bedroom features a plush king. Two bathrooms ensure plenty of time and hot water for everyone. Of course, fresh plush towels and linens are provided for your stay.

WHAT GUESTS SAY ABOUT SERENITY BAY

"It's beautiful. From the deck or when you're sitting in the hot tub, you can see right down to the water. The owners strived to make it a special spot for guests." Nichole H.

MORE ABOUT SERENITY BY RETREAT

Outdoors, the deck is an ideal place for enjoying your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. There you will also find a new gas barbeque, plus a table and chairs for dining al fresca.

The pathways and stairs to the private waterfront are an entry point for kayaks, canoes, fishing and oysterhunting.

Along the way you'll find a stone patio with Adirondack chairs, a fire pit and a hot tub. Jump in the hot tub after an active day, kick back as the sun goes down and watch the lights across the bay come on. Or, in cooler weather, sit by the fire pit and roast s'mores with the little ones. Up to two dogs are welcome with our usual per dog, per night cleaning fee.

ABOUT GIG HARBOR

There is a ton to do in Gig Harbor, like exploring the many art galleries, boutiques and fine dining restaurants. If you feel like exploring further, take a harbor tour.

Nearby Allyn boasts a PGA golf course at Lakeland Village. Kayak and boat rentals are available in Allyn or Belfair, both about seven miles from the home. Port Orchard, just 15 minutes away, is a Mecca for those interested in antiques and treasure hunting.

The downtown waterfront not only offers a beautiful scenic view but also shopping, museums, entertainment, galleries and dining, with ferry access from Bremerton and Seattle.

Hidden Getaway
Beautiful home tucked away from others in a small town. Very quiet and the grounds are full of towering trees, providing great shade and coverage. The home layout was also nice, with a spacious kitchen, patio/deck, and fire pit. The walkway to the river/creek below was wonderful.

Cleaner there when we arrived
The house and property was wonderful. However, when we arrived at 6pm (one hour after check in) the cleaner was still there and stayed until 8pm. They also left and came back to bring paper towels. This was a little bit of a disappointing start to our stay. After this it was wonderful though.
