Great views at a great place

We had a lovely stay in August at this comfortable home in a nice neighborhood. The house is well equipped and the wifi was reliable and fast enough for video conference calls and for streaming videos. The windows are screened so we were able to enjoy sleeping with them open almost every night. On two unseasonably warm evenings we closed up the house and were appreciative of the central air conditioning. The blackberry vines growing on the property (and throughout the neighborhood) were a pleasant surprise - we very much enjoyed picking and eating the blackberries. But the best of all was the view. No photo can do justice to that view. Watching the boats go by on Puget Sound was delightful. And on clear days Mt Ranier was visible on the horizon and the view was even more spectacular. We hope to return some day!

Clean property, very spacious and AMAZING view!

The property was exactly what we were looking for. We were visiting family and the location of the property was close to downtown Gig Harbor but far enough away that it was very quiet. The house was set up perfectly for our family and provided enough space for everyone to spread out. The best part was the amazing view! I could have sat out on that deck and looked at the clear view of Mount Rainer all day. Carl was a very responsive host as I head a few questions before our trip. He was always very quick to respond and was very helpful. When we arrived I really appreciated Carl's phone call for an "orientation" to the property. I would definitely stay here again when I visit the area.

Great veiw!

Perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. The views are gorgeous! It was clean and kitchen was fully stocked. The owners were very responsive. There was a big snow storm the weekend of our trip and they were willing to be flexible regarding check in/out times if needed to prioritize safety.

Fantastic home! Great Xmas vacation and amazing views

Rented this home for over a week for Christmas —- it was a fantastic location; the home itself was perfect. Plenty of space for everyone; huge garage to keep the car warm; laundry room upstairs. And the views of the water and Mt Rainier were amazing. There is also a private park/beach that the kids enjoyed too. Carl was also a fantastic host and was always in contact.

Perfect for a Family Vacation

My family had a great time at this property. We were four adults and one baby and it was perfect for us. The view is awesome, and the porch is great for grilling and relaxing. The upstairs space is an ideal common area for a stay with family or friends. The property was also very clean. We’d absolutely stay here again the next time we’re in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Carl Sessions

We are Carl and Vicki. We currently live in San Diego, Ca. We love to spend time with our 5 grand children, 3 of whom live in Gig Harbor and 2 in Virginia Beach, Va. We travel frequently and are especially fond of trips to London, Iceland, Cairo, Ireland, and Wales. I am retired from Mortgage Banking and Vicki from accounting. We love Gig Harbor life and cannot get enough of the view from the Sea Cliff home. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!!!

Why they chose this property

Our daughter moved to the area in 2015 from Sacramento. We visit frequently and with her being a local realtor we were able to purchase this absolute "Diamond in the Rough". It has been a blast furnishing it with the intent of sharing with others, from the best linens, top of the line mattresses, and all the creature comforts that you would expect in your own home. For those of you that wish to "work from home" we offer Xfinity's 400 MPBS whole home Wi-Fi connection. We do count on our guests for suggestions for items that would make your stay more comfortable, and, we act on them. We do hope you will enjoy our home as much as we do!!

What makes this property unique

The view from the great room is 180 degrees of pure bliss. Directly across Colvos Passage are homes visible on Vashon Island, marine traffic on their way North to Bremerton, Pt. Ruston, Commencement Bay, and of course, on a clear day you will be awed by the enormity of Mt. Rainier with its majestic snow covered top. The home is also separated upstairs and down with entertainment on each level and each have their own entrances. The master king bed features access to the expansive deck and its own view of the water and mountain. Here you will also find a fire table that provides guests a wonderful gathering place to recount the days activities. The neighbors are all very friendly and will respond in kind to a wave or offer of a chat. Do keep an eye out for the occasional deer that graze in the area. This home is one of a kind in the Sea Cliff Estates!!
