Beautiful beach cottage

I very much enjoyed my stay. The location is an easy drive from the main part of Gig Harbor and the area is stunningly beautiful. The house sits directly on the water with nothing obstructing the view. I slept in the upstairs bed and it was very comfortable. I enjoyed waking up and looking out on the water and watching the wildlife… I miss that part already! The owner is wonderful and was super easy to work with before and during the trip.

Beautiful House with Incredible Views

This was a fantastic place to stay. The house is spotless, beautiful, and well appointed. It had everything we needed. The views were incredible. We loved the set up with the two different levels and two decks and loved being right on the water. The hosts were great and even went out of the way to notify us about a pod of orcas in the area, so we could watch for them. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful waterfront home. We had such a great time. It was very peaceful and you can’t beat the view. We all slept so good (better than at home) and loved sitting on the deck with our morning coffee enjoying the view. The host was amazing, checking in with us daily to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We definitely want to go back.

Beautiful Place

The Captain’s House was absolutely beautiful, the location is nice, views are amazing, and the home is decorated and stocked with comfort in mind! The parking is just a tad tricky but it wasn’t the worst we have ever experienced. The home is stocked well and we had everything we needed, plus more. The beds are comfortable, plenty of linens available, and we really enjoyed the views and access to the beach. We would recommend this home to anyone who is in search of a relaxing trip to this area as it is within driving distance to Seattle and surrounding areas.

Captain's weekend trip

House was very clean, great location on the water, very close to town for convenient driving , beds were comfortable, would suggest adding a dishwasher. Dishes were not as clean as they should be. Not very relaxing to handwash dishes. dishes.

Gorgeous view and home

This house was so beautiful. The view was gorgeous from every room in the home, including the shower upstairs! When the tide was in, it was like living on a boat house without the rocking. When the tide went out, my girls enjoys looking for shells and other interesting sea invertebrates. Once you get to the house, you won't want to leave, but if you do Gig Harbor is an adorable, upscale harbor town with stunning views, lovely restaurants and shops. I would highly recommend this property and love to stay again.

Incredible Getaway

We celebrated my husband's birthday here and it was the perfect spot. The location overlooking the water is mesmerizing and the house is even nicer than the photos portray. It's an extremely quiet place on the beach, which is exactly what we wanted. We spent a lot of time just marveling at the view and relaxing. We love the town of Gig Harbor and hadn't been for several years. We enjoyed walking around and basking in the beauty. Annie's the perfect host. Communication was excellent prior and during our stay. She even took the time to alert us ahead of time that an extremely low tide was expected during our stay that would enable us to experience sea life that is typically always underwater so that we could adjust our schedule if we were interested in exploring. She also provided restaurant and hiking recommendations at our request. We recommend this property highly and hope to spend more time there in the future.

We had such a wonderful stay! The host was incredibly kind and thoughtful—everything about the experience felt welcoming and easy. The house had everything we needed and more. It was the perfect balance: close enough to access Gig Harbor, but also tucked away in a peaceful and relaxing setting.One of the highlights was being able to spot whales, seals, porpoises, and even deer right from the property—absolutely magical.Thank you so much for sharing your space with us. We can’t wait to stay here again in the future!

Waterfront views

This is the third time we have stayed here and it was just as good as we remembered. Property is well stocked with everything needed for a relaxing vacation. So close to the water that at high tide it's like you are on a boat. Lots of wild life sightings including a family of seals we saw each day. Only a short drive to downtown Gig Harbor.

Great views

Great views of the water throughout the property. Easy checkin. Great proximity to multiple locations - we visited Gig Harbor, Tacoma, Seattle and Olympia. It was unseasonably warm two days which made the upstairs too warm to hang out or sleep but the downstairs was comfortable with windows open and fans.

Amazing beach home

This is an amazing rental. The owner was incredibly helpful, showed my kids different types of sea life, gave us tips on the area and even called me when there were whales in the area. The house had a great layout and everything we needed. One of the previous reviews had mentioned a concern about no washer/dryer access but there is one. Just ask. They have a designated one for the unit. We are definitely going to stay here again. Thanks again Annie

Perfection

The Captain’s House hosted by Annie and her husband was a 10/10— they thought of everything down to a guide to the rocks & shells on the beach. The view was epic from each window, and we enjoyed greetings from a seal everyday off our deck— who the kids named, of course. The Captain’s House served as a great jumping off point for visiting Olympic NP, Mount Ranier, & Colombia River Gorge + The Fruit Loop. Our days not out seeing sights were VERY peaceful & filled with canoeing, doing puzzles, & exploring the squirting geoducks, crabs, & starfish on the shore. Could not have been more pleased!! Thank you for hosting us!!

Nothing short of incredible!

Perfect place to celebrate our Anniversary. Captains House did not disappoint! The views from every room are breathtakingly stunning. The views from the bedroom upstairs at night gave off a Sleepless in Seattle vibe (beyond romantic). Ann is a wonderful host, answering every inquiry quickly and thoroughly. The rental is luxury living with comfortable beds and linens and a kitchen equipped with everything you need. We enjoyed the kayaks provided. There was a harbor seal that likes to hang out in front of the house. The 4th of July fireworks are unlike any I’ve ever seen, magical on the water. Thank you, Dave and Ann! It was a real treat!

This house does not disappoint. It has all the amenities and with the most breathtaking views. Sitting on the deck, relaxing and watching the marine life was top on our list. We saw seals and porpoises multiple times. The owner was so easy to communicate with and the whole process was very smooth. We cannot say enough about how wonderful this house was for our vacation.
