About this property

Intimately Charming on Gig Harbor's Historical Waters

Romantically situated on the water directly across from downtown Gig Harbor, lovely 2 bedroom, 2 bath home. Covered deck off the kitchen with gas barbeque and sitting area.
Sit on the deck and enjoy the sunset and a glass of wine and watch the sail boat races on Thursdays, listen to music in the park on Tuesdays or enjoy the movies in the park on Saturdays.
Gig Harbor was listed as one of the top 20 Best Small Towns in America of 2012.

Home has a large deck with panoramic views of the harbor, a hot tub to relax in and a shared dock to kayak from. Two kayaks are available for your use. Just a 1.5 mile walk to many restaurants, Morso Wine Bar, Market Grill, Anthony's and Devoted Kiss. A 2 mile walk to the main area of down town and a 3 mile walk to The Tides Tavern.
Take the Trolley to Uptown, visit Gig Harbors new spirits distillery, Heritage Distillery. Back on the harbor enjoy a Destiny Harbor boat tour.
You can paint your own pottery at Java and Clay cafe in downtown or sit and relax as boat traffic moves in and out of the harbor at Skansie Brothers Park in downtown. The Maritime Gig Festival is the first full weekend in June beginning with a parade on Saturday morning and ending with the Blessing of the Fleet in Skansie Brothers park on Sunday.
Your stay will end with lasting memories of the many activities you enjoyed or the relaxing moments sitting over the harbor.

Beautiful view. Comfortable house. Great host.
This waterfront home was a great spot for hosting out of town family members, and we thoroughly enjoyed this house and it’s sensational harbor view. Our host, Dianne, is helpful and gracious and welcomed us with wine, fresh bread and a stocked pantry. The layout encourages relaxing with friends/family, perhaps after a few hours of exploration, and activity in the harbor is never-ending entertainment. The kitchen is beyond well-equipped, reading material and games aplenty are at hand, the furnishings are all comfortable and Dianne seems to have thought of just about everything. Highly recommended. (Just please don't book it when we want to come back.)

Can’t wait to go back
This was the nicest VRBO property we’ve ever rented. The location is wonderful, the view stunning, the house warm and inviting. Spotlessly clean with thoughtful touches like fresh flowers in the bathroom, homemade pumpkin bread, coffee and wine to welcome us. The house is equipped with everything we could have ever needed. We visited with another couple to attend a small reunion of dear friends. Our homebase was a friend’s home in Gig Harbor. We would like to go back and spend a lot more time enjoying all the activities available at the house and in Gig Harbor. Thank you!

Peaceful retreat!
The location and view was perfect enjoyed the deck and all the beautiful flowers. Dianne was great to work with and we had everything we needed for a great escape from the heat of AZ. Enjoyed the pumpkin bread as an added treat. Would highly recommend if looking for a place on the harbor.
