Wonderful host! The property is spectacular and really a special place. Incredible views, wildlife and sunrises. Again an incredibly special place to stay. We are feeling so lucky to have found this place.
We loved the sunrises, the water view, the sea life, and the pristine little cabin. All our needs were taken care of by Krissy and Callum through our stay. Driving in and out of the location can be a little scary with a big SUV but we survived!
We couldn’t have scripted a better get-away. It’s as if the wildlife appeared on cue. The weather was sunny and in the 70’s, only raining at night. The tides offered nature’s white noise for restful slumber. The view…sigh. The cozy accommodations accommodated us perfectly. And our hosts, Krissy and Cullen couldn’t have been more hospitable. Loved every minute.

Very peaceful, quiet and relaxing. Host was extremely likable, nice, easy to talk to and very welcoming. Great place to reset. Driveway was a little intimidating the first time.
This property was so amazing. We never wanted to leave. The owners were so awesome and kind and gave us privacy while also being very attentive when needed.
We will be back and are very thankful for such an amazing experience as first time Washington visitors.
Our stay here in Gig harbor was an absolute blast! The house was extremely clean, had everything we needed, and was right on the water. Krissy showed us where we would be staying, and some cool places around Gig Harbor as recommendations! All in all it was a very professional VRBO set up, and was perfect for my wife and I to start our trip in the PNW!
What an amazing experience!! Views are spectacular, owners are lovely, and the apartment is clean & cute. Be sure to check out the sunrise & sea critters from the deck. Had the best time!!
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Krissy and Cullen were both super attentive to all our needs. We hardly left our space since it was so peaceful and enjoyed kayaking right off the property! Will for sure be coming back!
We stayed for a few nights on an anniversary trip. The cabin reminded me of an over water villa on a tropical island, but with much different but equally beautiful scenery! We enjoyed watching a harbor seal, deer, crabs, and other wildlife. The unit was well organized, clean, and tastefully decorated with everything we needed. We used the new gas grill as well as the kitchen. The location was perfect to travel to Seattle as well as checking out nearby hiking and spending time shopping and dining in Gig Harbor. Finally, our hosts were amazing. Krissy and Cullen were able to answer questions and give suggestions, but also wanted to ensure they gave us our privacy. They were so friendly and truly wanted us to have the best time possible!
1stly CLEAN! Great use of small space. Very thoughtfully designed and furnished. Loved watching the wildlife- birds(eagles, ospreys, loons, resident geese, and shore birds), sealions, seals, otters, and harbor porpoises. Bird identification book and a great pair of binoculars provided. This is the space to get away. Tranquil, relaxing and away from the hustle and bustle of the city. THE HOSTS, Krissy and Cullen, not only hospitable, but absolutely amazing people. It was an honor to be their guests and share their EPIC place. We will be back.
We enjoyed being so close to the ocean and falling asleep with the sound of the waves splashing against the rocks. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to prepare light meals. The hostess was friendly and accommodated us with feather free pillows.
We thouroughly enjoyed the wonderful accomodations. It was such a treat to wake up to the sunset and harbor seals popping their heads up. We had everything we needed to escape from reality and settle into a relaxing weekend.
Great view, right on the water. Nights were pleasant with the wave sounds rocking you to sleep. Very comfortable. Everything worked perfectly. Wanted to stay for a month! Hosts where I joy to talk to. I made new friends. Highly recommend this place!
We loved our time at this thoughtfully designed and appointed water spot. Krissy and Kellan were kind and helpful; we appreciated the thorough communication throughout our booking/stay. Beautiful spot to sit on the private deck and pop into the kayaks. We saw seals and a bald eagle!
Very welcoming and kind hosts!
The unit is tastefully decorated, and is as waterfront as it gets - it's literally ON the water in high tide. Very peaceful. Ducks swim by in high tide, deers walk past in low tide ...
Thank you Krissy & Cullen!
Couldn't have asked for more. Great location, great host, wonderful atmosphere. Host was extremely nice and inviting, and was also very helpful with recommendations for the area. Wish i would have stay longer.

The hosts are super friendly and eager to help make the stay comfortable and the view is a dream! Would definitely stay here again!
My husband and I stayed at Krissy and Cullen beautiful studio on the water for our 23rd anniversary. And all I can say is wow! Krissy from the time we checked in to the time we left was nothing short of stellar. She was so made our stay so welcoming and comfortable. Gave us a wonderful walkthrough of the studio with excellent restaurant recommendations. The road that I have seen other made comments about in other reviews, driveway has been recently paved gives no problem at all. The views are so serene and beautiful we laid for hours in the morning just staring and the calm waters. You will not be disappointed staying here. We will definitely be back. Thank for such a lovely weekend!
Everything was amazing! The location was perfect and had everything we needed for our stay. Had a great time sitting on the deck and listening to the water at night and exploring the beach right below the deck when the tide went out! Saw a lot of sea life each morning. Will be staying here again!!

The property was well kept and very peaceful. Sitting on the deck listening to the sounds of nature was wonderful. Krissy was a great host. The only negative was the road to the property - it’s a steep, deeply rutted dirt road with some gravel. We barely got out with our touring car. I would definitely recommend this studio but only if you have an AWD or 4 wheel drive vehicle.
I just returned from a weekend stay with my best friend - we could not have enjoyed ourselves more! The studio is compact but so well thought out that it lacked for nothing. And the deck overlooking the Sound doubles the living space with enough room to share a meal or enjoy morning yoga. The owners live on site and are absolutely lovely, gracious, helpful folks. We cannot wait to return!!
