About this house rental

Not available for weddings, large events or one-night bookings.
This house does have air conditioning to cool off on those hot days.

Because of the tight knit neighborhood, a maximum of six (6) people are allowed at this property at any given time, this includes overnight and daytime guests/visitors.

The Cottage:
Del Mar Cottage is the charming 1920's Air Conditioned cottage by the sea you've been dreaming about. The character of this cottage, from traditional architectural details like crystal door knobs and elegant crown molding with beautiful easy open windows to let the cool sea breeze in, make this get a way a 'must stay'.

The Garden:
Relax on the garden's porch swing while reading and sipping your favorite lemonaid. Later enjoy some stargazing from your luxurious outdoor spa while planning the next day's ferry ride, antiquing or golf game.

The Neighborhood:
Just 15 minutes north of Gig harbor is Del Mar Cottage's tiny neighborhood of South Colby, nestled between Port Orchard, just 5 minutes to the West, or the Southworth ferry dock to Seattle, just 4 minutes the East. This charming cottage seems to have guarded the bay for many, many decades. Make Del Mar Cottage part of your next get away. You'll want to come back every year!

Walks & Dog Lovers: There are several wonderful walks to take your dog on for an adventure. By the way, the house allows a maximum of two dogs, and each dog is a separate pet fee. Del Mar Cottage is one house back from the beach, but there is a quiet, single lane frontage road that is directly on the beach, great for walks and viewing all that the beach has to offer. The frontage road (SE Cornell) is just west of the Del Mar Cottage gate.

Then, just 1/8 of a mile east from the cottage is Harper Pier, overlooking Puget Sound. Continue your walk another 1/8 of a mile to the park just past SE Scatterwood Lane; great for letting the dog run in the fenced little league base ball area.

Across from the park is a natural boat and kayak launch, great for letting the dog play in the water!

I stayed here for the weekend of my wedding, as it was right down the road from the venue. It was more than I expected. Extremely clean and cozy, the hot tub was kept at the perfect temp, jazz playing when I checked in. I think the checkout list is a little excessive, but I would absolutely stay here again.

The cottage is equipped with everything you need. It is 8 minutes from the ferry. The hot tub was a wonderful bonus. We would happily rent it again.

This cottage was just what we needed--even cuter than the pictures and so charming. We arrived to music playing and a bottle of wine and delighted in the mix of modern and vintage furniture (especially the piano!). The hot tub, garden, deck, and yard were all lovely and felt like a classic English country garden. Although it was rainy some of the time, we still enjoyed sitting out and watching the sunset. We were also visited by some deer grazing in the open meadow next door. Our dog had a blast, too. We slept wonderfully and loved relaxing in the sun room bedroom to the front. It was also fun taking walks along the waterfront and it took no more than 15 minutes to drive anywhere else we wanted to explore in Port Orchard or Manchester State Park. The cottage was perfect for our birthday weekend of reading, writing, and relaxing, and we hope to be back!

This property has some quirks (as it should for a 1920s home). It was a great stay with a wonderful view!
