We loved the location close to the water. We were able to see a few seals, a dolphin and an eagle that lives in the area. I wish we had more time to stay.
We had a fantastic weekend at this oceanfront house! The view was absolutely stunningâwaking up to the sound of the waves and sipping coffee on the deck was pure bliss. The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Easy beach access made it perfect for kayaking and the kids playing in the water. Weâd definitely love to come back!
Beautiful property and home! Just as advertised! I booked this property for our girls group and they all loved it and canât wait to come back next year for 2 nights instead of 1.
This is a lovely home perfect for a family vacation.
It is situated right on the water with easy access for kayaking and paddleboarding. We loved the decks, both up and down, with seating to view all the wildlife activity and a firepit table for entertaining. Close to Gig Harbor and the ferries to Seattle and north, we were able to explore this beautiful are area of WA.
What a wonderful, relaxing stay in the most beautiful location. Laurie was so sweet with reaching out and nice touches and snacks for a comfortable stay. We loved using the kayaks and paddle boards and the home provided plenty of space for our family of 5. We canât wait to return again someday!
The secluded location on the water with all the wildlife around made the stay so special for us! The house felt upscale and comfy and we would definitely want to stay there again! Thank you!
One of my favorite properties Iâve ever stayed loved the set up of the house it was beautiful and the water is 10ft away from the house we got to go out on the paddle boards and kayaks and we saw sea lions! there is a hanging couch outside downstairs that is perfect to have coffee at in the morning with the sun rising on the water it was so peaceful. I would definitely stay here again!
We had a wonderful time celebrating our friends 50th birthday at your beautiful location. We saw seals and otters. We enjoyed watching the weather move through and even saw some lightning. It was absolutely perfect.
My child, mother, and two friends flew in to stay for a week. My aunt and cousins live in Olalla and Gig Harbor and they were so impressed they may even want to rent the house for a holiday weekend! Everything was wonderful. We had a great time.
What a lovely setting! We enjoyed a peaceful stay relaxing at the house, taking the kayaks and paddleboards out on the water, or taking a stroll at low tide to see what treasures we could find. There was enough space for everyone to enjoy time together or retreat to separate areas. We would stay here again!
This spot on the waterfront was perfect for spending Christmas with our family in a peaceful and beautiful spot. The kitchen was great for preparing one huge holiday feast after another, and we apppreciated Laurie supplying a larger table for our comfort, not to mention the lovely Christmas tree! Lots to watch on the water, including groups of seals and ducks swimming by! Plus, we took a lovely hike at nearby Anderson park to that beach. Look forward to a return trip!
Beautiful location and very nice accommodations. Very tricky parking for anyone and very challenging stairs down to the property for any seniors or persons with mobility issues. Owner was extremely nice in her communications, but the lock on the front door was tedious process. Wonderful location for younger people with small vehicles.
The views from basically anywhere in or outside the house are phenomenal! I got one of the best sleeps I've had in a vacation home listening to the tide come in and out, along with the light patter of rain on the roof.
The outdoor features of the home were the cherry on top, so to speak. Laying on the outdoor bed swing after a 4 day backpacking trip was truly amazing, along with sitting at the waters edge soaking our feet in the sound. Dinner on the deck at sunset rounded out the stay. 5* accommodation; would highly recommend to anyone.
LOVED IT! The views out the window from any room (except bathrooms) are incredibly relaxing. I had a different property booked that I ended up canceling due to host's lack of honesty on his property description and got this one last minute. I'm so glad that happened now or I wouldn't get to stay at this gem. It accommodated well our family of ages 0-62. There's no insane check-out chores list which is another nice stand out. I can't wait to go back and stay longer in the summer.
This was a little slice of heaven. Views from every room! There were so many wonderful touches. All the cafe lights at night added a warm touch as well. I could return here again and again. The kayaks and paddle boards were perfect for paddling will seals all around us. Canât wait to return. Also, the communication with host was excellent which made our trip that much nicer
We booked this rental for a quick weekend getaway and couldnât be more impressed with how cozy the house was. The views of the water cannot be missed!
The check-in process was easy and simple. The host was kind enough to let us check in an hour early. The kitchen was well stocked for our party of seven with plenty of cups, wine glasses, plates, etc. We cooked our meals in the kitchen and had a great time! We will definitely return another time for a longer stay.

John and Laurie are long time locals to the area and love to host guests to their little slice of heaven. Both have been in the customer service industry for over 30 years and truly love to show off all that Olalla Bay Getaway (OGB) and the Olalla/Gig Harbor area has to offer.
OGB is a unique waterfront property that boasts incredible views any time of year and privacy not typical to a short term rental. The home has been fully furnished with modern, comfortable furniture that aims to provide a special getaway. Our guests comment on seeing a variety of wildlife while visiting and no matter the weather you will see stunning views from every living space. Although close to Gig Harbor (10 mins) and all its great restaurants, shops and activities you will feel a million miles away at this private oasis.
2 outdoor living spaces provide all the room you and your group will need to spend quality time together including: The main level deck has a round table with a propane fire and comfortable couch that together can each seat 6 people. The real guest favorite is the covered space on the ground floor that has a couch swing and additional comfy chairs for hot summer days, cold winter nights and everything in between! In addition, OBG has 3 kayaks that are available just steps from the water which allow you to get up and close with the amazing Colvos Passage and its stunning views and wildlife. Finally, you will find an outdoor firepit with adirondack chairs to spend your evenings around and marveling at the night sky.
