Perfect Family Retreat
The house was a perfect home base for our family vacation to Seattle. The beach and included kayaks and paddle board were a fun activity for our down times. We visited Mt. Rainier and Olympic National Parks, both were about 2 hour drives from the house. We also visited the towns of Poulsbo (20 min) and Bainbridge (40 min), but close drives and fun little towns. The views from all of the big windows was beautiful and we were lucky enough to have clear skies for our trip making Rainier visible from the back porch window. There wasn't ton to do in Bremerton, but we did enjoy the Boat Shed restaurant and had a couple of dinners there during our stay.

Incredible Stay
The BayView Rendezvous was an excellent choice for our family vacation. A wonderful home that was well appointed, the kitchen well stocked and the home very clean. The scenery and path to the water were picture perfect on a sunny day.
The listing is accurate down to the well stocked kitchen and pantry to the laundry room. We loved the dining area for family meals.
The loft floor does not have a door but it is private.

Pure Bliss
This home was a dream, beautiful, bright, airy, comfortable, clean, and modern beach house decor was spot on perfect. Gorgeous views of the inlet, we found treasures of clam and oyster shells at low tide. We watched seals frolic in the water. Watched sailboats glide by. The house was well stocked with everything that you would want to cook or play games. We spent most of our time as a family just enjoying being together in this stunning place. We will definitely recommend and book again in the future.

Awesome
The weather was rough so we didn't get to enjoy the beach much. However the house was awesome. It was definitely a older home. With that comes somethings like room size and single pain windows. But the charm of this house is off the hook... Loved it.
Overall it was a great stay.. Thank you

Beautiful home with a beautiful view!
Such a beautiful home with so many windows!! The house was cozy and the beds were super comfortable. We all slept so good! It was just as described in the listing. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed…and the drawer full of Keurig coffee pods was a nice surprise. So nicely decorated, and there was even a Christmas tree.
The loft stairs aren’t for little ones, and the walk back from the beach is a tiny bit of a climb for anyone who isn’t super mobile…but those things were clearly described beforehand, so no surprises….just good to keep in mind.
It was cold and snowing some when we were there so we didn’t spend much time by the water, but the rocky beach was covered with shells when we did and fun for the kids!
Would definitely recommend and would stay again!

Wonderful stay!
Perfect spot for our needs. We were visiting our son and the house had everything we needed. Fully stocked kitchen to cook meals and plenty of space to play games. Beds were very comfortable! Host was responsive and great to work with. She does a fabulous job making sure the house has all the necessities! The walk to the water is a bit of a hike but worth the trip. Beautiful views!
