Contemporary cedar home w/.5 acres of beachfront only an hour and 20 minutes from Seattle. No ferries required, unless you'd like to boat over and drive from Bremerton, Southworth or Kingston.
Soak in the 180 degree view of the beach and Mt. Rainier from the living room with 20' tall prow fronted windows. The home has a large master suite upstairs with loft and crows nest. Downstairs hosts a large guestroom and bath. The house comfortably sleeps 6 people. We do not allow pets. We do not allow gatherings of any kind at the home without permission.

We stayed here in 2020. The kids wanted to do it again and it did not disappoint. It's a comfortable quiet place to relax and just enjoy being together.

Overall, an enjoyable stay, but not impressed with the preparation of the property in advance of our stay. Patio furniture was not at all like in the listings - not set up, cushions were all in a closet, there were no lounge chairs or coffee table, most of the furniture was plastic, and there was no umbrella to provide shade on the very sunny patio. The interior of the grill was very rusted out and the grill brush was missing all of its bristles - we had to purchase one at the store. Inside, there seems to have been an issue with the housekeeper as there were no paper towels, no dishwasher detergent, no laundry detergent, and no body wash in the showers. When I communicated this to the host the response was that the housekeeper was supposed to take care of that, but offered no solution - we ended up going to the grocery store to purchase these supplies. The smoke alarm in the master bedroom was low on battery, and was beeping incessantly so we had to remove it from the ceiling and pull the battery. Upon returning to the house one night to prepare dinner and enjoy the deck, there were landscapers performing maintenance on the property - at 5PM, which is kind of a strange time to be there and quite a nuisance. We enjoyed our time here, but for the money, we will likely look for alternative accommodations should we return to Stretch Island. Also, there were no checkout instructions on either the listing or posted in the house, so we did our best.

Nice place to stay but could have been cleaned more thoroughly. Has all the amenities for a fun getaway and the reservation / check in process was flawless.

There were a few little glitches but nothing major. one of us was a bit cold most of the time - might have had something to do with the gentle rain for 2 days. we slept well. the communication difficulty might have been a VRBO problem.
