Perfect little getaway - so many fun little things were supplied - fresh OJ and eggs for breakfast already in our frig upon arrival - that was a special touch we haven't experienced before. Great communication with hosts. Super easy check in, felt private despite multiple guest facilities. Would stay again for sure!
My friend and I came here bc it was equidistant to a few different towns and bc of the amenities offered at the rental itself. Neither did disappoint. Tyler and Chanda were wonderful hosts and their property was not only welcoming but tranquil and beautiful. Definitely coming to stay with them again.

Thank you, Diane! We really enjoyed meeting the two of you and look forward to seeing you again!
The garden suite was everything we’d hoped! The thoughtful notes and touches anticipated our every need and I particularly enjoyed walking the property and admiring the blackberries, blueberries, apples, figs, and other goodies planted amidst the flowers while drinking my morning coffee. I highly recommend this VRBO!

Thank you, Chris and Ed! It was such a pleasure to meet you! We are glad you found the Chico Bay Inn to be perfect for you! Also, thanks for your suggestion!
The hosts are incredible and every detail was just perfection. If you're looking for a getaway to rest, relax and explore, this is the place. We had the best time enjoying the calm of the bay and taking in the surroundings, mainly the eagles and sea life.
We will absolutely be back!

Wonderful location as base from which we could explore all the area has to offer. Had breakfast every morning by the water. Unfortunately, didn't get a chance to kayak; tides and our day plans didn't allow for it. Next time!

Chandra and Tyler have provided a great home/base to the peninsula. The full kitchen was such a plus for our trip, and the entire space is thoughtfully appointed and so well decorated. They were excellent hosts, communicating quickly when we had questions, and making certain all of our needs were met. The beach access and kayaks were an added bonus. I would highly recommend this property.

Fantastic place for a relaxing getaway. The property was spotless, quiet, and comfortable with wonderful design elements and a well-equipped kitchen. Stairs lead down to the waterfront area where there are comfy Adirondack chairs and a fire pit. We spent much of our time down there enjoying the view and taking photos. The hosts were friendly and accommodating but gave us plenty of privacy. Can’t wait to return. Highly recommend.

Great experience at this property. We only stayed two nights, next time it will be longer for sure.
The suite is lovely and very comfortable. We’ll appointed kitchen and plenty of room to move around.
The waterfront is very private and a great place for a glass of wine or to read a book.
We hope to come back again next year.
Thank you to the Chens for providing such a great place to get away!

These hosts have thought of everything. We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. The shower is like something out of a sci-fi movie! The home is tucked away in a quiet location by the beach. We enjoyed building a fire on the shore (everything provided) and watching the tide roll in and out at different times of day. This was just what the doctor ordered for our relationship!

It made our day reading your review! Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We are so glad that this is just what the doctor ordered!
My husband and I wanted a getaway while our daughter was away at a local overnight camp. This property was better than we even hoped! Beautifully decorated and the hosts were available if needed (although there was nothing that they haven't thought of so we didn't need to bother them at all). We enjoyed having coffee by the water and a nice fire at night. Kitchen is stocked with anything you could need and the breakfast treats they provided were a wonderful surprise. Would definitely stay here again!

About the host
Hosted by Chanda and Tyler
In a former life, Chanda worked in the fields of International Education and Intercultural Learning and Tyler was a touring musician, designer and media producer. We dreamed of creating a life where every day felt like a vacation, even when we were hard at work. In 2018, we finally made the leap to both leave full-time jobs and work for ourselves, making our dream a reality!
We built a business out of our passion for renovating distressed properties and spend our days bringing houses back to life with fine craftsmanship and innovative design, creating warm, inviting homes packed full of modern amenities. We also love traveling, eating/cooking great food, kayaking, listening to live music, spending time outdoors and meeting new people!
Why they chose this property
We both knew from the instant that we walked in the front door that this was our waterfront dream house! Our realtor thought we were joking about putting in an offer before seeing the entire house, but it was love at first sight for both of us, and we could already visualize our home in its finished state.
What makes this property unique
- Chico Bay is home to the delicious Chico Bay Oyster - The bay view is ever changing with the tides, seasons and wildlife - From the property you often see bald eagles, otters, seals, salmon, blue heron, ducks, geese, and more - Guests have beach access and a fantastic bulkhead with fire pits and Adirondack chairs to enjoy the bay views - Guests have access to an outdoor hot tub - Guests have kayaks available to them at no additional charge to explore Dyes Inlet - The property provides quick access to the shopping in Silverdale, the Seattle/Bremerton ferry and many other local points of interest
