Lovely Apartment

This lovely apartment was perfect for our stay. Excellent cleanliness, comfortable and cozy bed, spacious bathroom and living room areas with essential kitchen facilities were all we needed. A big plus was the easy walking distance to an excellent bakery and a pizza restaurant. We'll definitely keep this one on our list.

Gig Harbor

very clean and quiet. you are right across the street from the harbor with views of the water, sail boats, fishing boats and kayaks. Close walk to nice shops and dinning. We would stay here again. if you are a golfer and can get on to Canterwood Country Club in Gig Harbor we highly recommend it.

Perfect Weekend getaway!

We were in Washington to visit family and attend a seminar on Gig Harbor. The location of this property was perfect for us and was beautifully kept. Our hostess left detailed instructions and suggestions for local eateries. We had great communication before and throughout our stay. We would definitely stay again. Michelle and Robert R.

Just perfect getaway

Loved staying at Carolyns place! The place was relaxing, nicely furnished and comfortable to stay in, appreciated the AC much! and loved stepping out our door to walk the harbor or take in restaurants. She supplied extras that made our stay cozy: candy, water, coffee and creamer... Even champagne because it was our Anniversary! Reserve the Gondola! And eat at Greenhouse on tthe patio.
