I highly recommend this home. Marcia responded immediately to all requests. The home is just lovely - so cozy, clean and the kitchen is very stocked and great to cook in. The beds are very comfortable. The location is wonderful as you can walk to the harbor and town. The back porch is perfect for relaxing and has a great view off to the side, where you can see a bit of the harbor and the pretty lights at night. A wonderful 10 star home.

Immaculate and beautifully decorated home in the heart of Gig Harbor. We appreciated the fully stocked kitchen for when we felt like cooking in. Marcia thought of every detail .. and more! She was also very responsive to any questions I had about our stay. We relaxed by the gas fireplace in the main living area almost every night with our family..Very spacious and cozy! The giant tub and spa like bathroom in the master bedroom was glorious. We all fought over who was going to have that room. What we also liked was that the home was located so close to everything. We were able to walk to the harbor shops and most restaurants. You have got to try Brix 25 Restaurant for dinner and The Devoted Kiss Cafe (which had the most enormous and delicious biscuits I've ever had) Lots of cute gift shops along the harbor too.. my personal favorite is the Harbor Nest Gift Shop. All in all a wonderful stay. Can't wait to go back this upcoming summer!

We’ve stayed at several VRBOs in the area in our years of going to the Hanger Clinic. This is by far the best. Beautiful home up off the road with easy to spot “runway” lights when coming home at night. A seven-minute walk to the Hanger Clinic, though, if you are there for the Hanger Clinic, walking may be an issue for you. Uber had an easy time picking you up, but their map was wrong in dropping you off. So, you must tell the driver to ignore the Uber map and put the address on their phone (or just tell them where to turn). There used to be a small grocery store near the house, but it closed. Easy Uber to Safeway or Fred Myers Grocery store. Easy walk to the harbor where there are fun shops and good places to eat. Very comfortable, well-maintained home with everything you need. Better cookware and utensils than most VRBOs. If you like to cook, this is the place to stay. TV has an HDMI cable so you can set up your computer and run your own Prime and Netflix and such. Good Wi-Fi. Great yard. It’s fun to watch the squirrels run around. Relaxing eating breakfast at the kitchen table looking out over the pretty town. Highly recommend this home.

Gig Harbor getaway!

What a wonderful property! The location is perfect--about a five minute walk to the harbor--and the house is absolutely charming. It's immaculate, well-equipped, and beautifully decorated. Marcia is the definition of a "Superhost," and she responded immediately to our questions. We highly recommend this home for your next stay in Gig Harbor!

Best VRBO ever!

The home was better equipped than any we have stayed in - ever. Extraordinarily clean and well stocked. The owner was “johnny on the Spot” available. We rented the home for family from Denmark and they were so happy with this choice.

Great House!

The house was exactly as advertised. It was super clean and was one of the best equipped VRBO houses we ever stayed in. Close to downtown Gig Harbor so the location was great for walking along the harbor. Marcia was a super host and when the BBQ needed propane, she had a guy there in just a few minutes who got it up and running. Thanks Marcia for a great stay!

Great Getaway

This beautiful home is a gem in Gig Harbor. It is impeccably decorated, extremely well equipped and conveniently located to downtown Gig Harbor, which is a gem itself. This home exceeded our expectations and Marcia was very easy to work with. We highly recommend this property, especially if you need two bedrooms and baths. The large gourmet kitchen is an added bonus.

Beautiful home

The house was just like the photos shown: clean, well-stocked, beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. The location was fantastic: an easy to walk to the harbor and several near-by restaurants and you even had some views of the water. We chose to stay in and cook a couple of nights because the house was well-appointed and stocked with everything you need so it made it easy and felt like home! Communication with Marcia was also very easy. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to stay here again if and when we visit in the future.
