Rained most days but it didn’t slow us down. Took the Bremerton ferry to Seattle, enjoyed Point Defiance, the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, Snoqualmie Falls and the Museum of Flight. So much to do relatively close to Gig Harbor. Would love to come back in the summer but it was a perfect getaway in March too. Thank you for sharing your beautiful hideaway. ##### diane g.

How did we love our stay? Let me count the ways... We shared our time here with friends who are world travelers and have stayed at more than a few places. They confirmed this was THE BEST. It was stocked better than my own home - you will want for nothing in this gorgeous home with a wonderful, quiet relaxing atmosphere. Loved enjoying the view both while relaxing either cozied up inside or on the big deck, and boarding around the island and seeing all the wildlife close up. Extra bonus to be able to paddle right up to the private beach while doing a lap around the island. Just so many extra nice touches - you can't help but feel spoiled. Everything about the stay was literally picture perfect. Not only is the property first rate, but the locals are great too - so friendly. And some really great pubs, dining, and fun food stores. The one bad thing - too hard to leave! Thanks so much Steven - you're a rock star! ##### Cindy H. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CVH S. Dec 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful stay over the holiday. We came to Gig Harbor to visit family and we always love a view. This particular view was spectacular, the property was absolutely clean (one of my high priority criteria), and there was everything you needed. We were there for 11 nights, and I hosted my family on more than one occasion. We arrived at night and that was probably the only time we questioned anything because it was quite dark and we were quite tired. But we were triumphant, the directions were appropriate and I would recommend this property to anyone. The host Steve was absolutely delightful. Not that we had lots of contact with him but when we did it was completely professional. A few people mentioned that the bathrooms were small. But it was not a problem for us. The heating was excellent and it was quite cold. ##### CVH S. Stayed 11 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori H. Oct 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic stay on Henderson Bay! We absolutely loved our week stay here! From the moment we walked through the front door and saw the wall of windows, we knew we made the right choice. Stunning views! We saw wildlife throughout the week (bald eagle, blue heron, ducks, deer, raccoons, kingfisher, bats and of course a ton of seagulls). It was such a relaxing time away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The cabin was very clean. The linens were a nice quality. The kitchen was well-equipped. The sleep number bed in the master bedroom was so comfortable, we're seriously considering buying one for ourselves! The bathrooms are pretty small, but we love having two bathrooms while on vacation. We ended up just using the tub/shower for showering because the master shower was the size of a motorhome shower, and too small for comfort. The other one was totally doable. The outside deck is huge, and partially covered, making it great for taking the dogs out to potty. We appreciated the dog potty area right off the deck. It was so easy to access for our older dogs that don't climb stairs as easily as they used to. Steve, the owner, was so easy to work with. He is very responsive, friendly and accommodating. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay here in the future. Highly recommend! ##### Lori H. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John A.

We stayed for six weeks in the fall while the weather turned from warm and sunny to cold and rainy - it was gorgeous every moment. Steve obviously puts a lot of love into his place - it is well-built, cozy, cute, abundantly-supplied, and in general, extremely comfortable. Steve was very helpful and accommodating; he made sure we had what we needed and that everything worked, and he was pleasant and friendly but unobtrusive while taking care of routine maintenance issues. Grocery shops, restaurants and the cute town of Gig Harbor are just 15 minutes away. We loved coming "home" to our place on Raft Island. ##### nancy w.
