Von den Dachlinien bis zu den originalen Scharnierfenstern ist dies ein wirklich einzigartiges Zuhause. Es wurde vor fast 100 Jahren von William Bading, dem Richter am Obersten Gerichtshof, als Zufluchtsort für die Jagd erbaut. Das Haus verfügt über viele originale Funktionen, wurde jedoch mit dem heutigen Komfort der Kreaturen aktualisiert. Das Haupthaus verfügt über 4 gemütliche und einzigartige Schlafzimmer sowie 3 schön eingerichtete Bäder. Von fast jedem Zimmer genießen Sie eine malerische Aussicht. Die Master Suite verfügt über einen eigenen Balkon. Von diesem Zimmer aus genießen Sie eine herrliche Aussicht. Es gibt ein zusätzliches Gästehaus auf der anderen Seite des Rasens, das eine voll ausgestattete Küche, ein Vollbad und ein bequemes Queensize-Bett auf dem Dachboden bietet. Dies hat auch eine eigene überdachte Terrasse und Platz zum Entkommen. Die Außenbereiche bieten viele Bereiche zum Entspannen und Genießen der Aussicht. Der kleine Hangdeckbereich mit Adirondack-Stühlen und Feuerstelle ist ein wunderbarer kleiner Ort, um den Sonnenuntergang hinter den Olympischen Spielen zu beobachten. Die Hauptterrasse hat viele Sitzgelegenheiten und ist ideal für Unterhaltung. Wir haben vor kurzem einen neuen Platz auf der Strandtreppe für zwei hinzugefügt, um eine ruhige Aussicht und ein kaltes Getränk zu genießen. Die Innenhöfe eignen sich perfekt für Badminton oder ein Einhand-Krocket-Turnier. Etablierte Gärten und Hecken sorgen für ein schönes privates Erlebnis. Wir lieben den Charme dieses Hauses sowie die wirklich aktiven Ansichten. Beobachten Sie am frühen Morgen Wasserskifahrer, Seehunde, Weißkopfseeadler und Yachten, die in der Bucht vor Anker gehen.

Perfect spot for the whole family.
Our extended family stayed for a week and this location was perfect for all ages. There were kayaks and a paddle board for water activities, badminton and bean bag toss for the yard, and plenty of games for indoors. The backyard has a great view and we enjoyed many of our meals outdoors. While it’s a bit of a drive from the airport (1 hour), the ferry makes for easy day trips to Seattle. This is a great spot to enjoy the area while having plenty of quiet space to yourself!

A Perfect Home on Puget Sound
We stayed at this wonderful home on Puget Sound for 17 glorious days. Carol Sue was an amazing host and answered all of our questions about the home and surrounding area promptly. We were sad to leave this amazing home and wished we could have stayed longer and will definitely be back again next year! Thank you so much Carol Sue for opening up your home to us.

Perfect vacation home
We had a fabulous week at this beautiful home. We had 8 adults for a family get-together. We spent at least half of our week hanging out at the home, kayaking, lounging in the very nice outdoor furniture, playing badminton and ladder golf. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was extremely well-equipped, and each couple had privacy to retreat to their own bedroom space. I am usually homesick after a week, but I felt so at home here I could have stayed indefinitely!

Wonderful amazing week in a very unique house.
We had three generations with us - children between 7 and 14 - parents, and grandparents for a total of 9 people. There was always something to do every day. We loved the house and the guest house - it was perfect for our needs. The house was very clean and we had everything we needed - included fun toys. The communication with the owner was all we had hoped for. It was a marvelous week.

Beautiful home, beautiful view!
This home was perfect for our family of 10 to celebrate our parents 80th birthday! There was enough room for the entire family, breathtaking views of the water, lots of outdoor space for lawn games, and the location to the ferry over to Seattle couldn’t have been better. We definitely recommend this home and have even talked about coming back again in the future. Carol Sue was such a wonderful host. The little special touches that she added to welcome us was to the home meant so much to us. Thank you Carol Sue!

Our second stay in this excellent, well-managed property. Our every need and desire was anticipated, the house is spotless, the grounds impeccable. Easy communication with Carol Sue. A blissful setting, plenty of room to roam and recreate, comfy beds, modern bathrooms, a boutique finish to everything. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, serving dishes, appliances, everything you need for family kitchen time if you so desire. Great indoor and outdoor seating, kayaks, life preservers for every shape and age, the owners know what it takes to host a perfect getaway. The absolute best VRBO property in our decades long experience. Bravo!

PNW Oasis
Seldom do you stay at a property that exceeds your expectations in every way. This lovely estate was perfect for our family trip with our three adult children, their spouses and kids. The grounds were as beautifully maintained as the house. We are a cooking family and the kitchen is spacious and fully equipped. Even with several young families, there was space to be together and to find a respite. Paddle boarding in the calm inlet was great and the beach was nice for small children, especially when the tide is out. Carol Sue accomodated our early check-in request and responded promptly to all inquiries during our stay. Our family hopes to return to this truly unique property many times in the future.

Absolutely magnificent property
Simply the nicest property we have ever rented. We had a mix of family and friends staying with us for our son's wedding. The property is immaculate inside and out. Beautifully manicured gardens. The house had everything we needed and more. Even the gas grill was spotless. We cooked several meals for our large group and every cooking utensil we needed was available (and more). They thought of everything. The waterfront view was amazing and we enjoyed the firepit almost every night while watching the sun set into the mountains. We took advantage of the kayaks and paddleboard to explore the inlet in front of the house. We saw seals and osprey almost every day. The bedding was super comfy and all of our guests commented on how well they were able to sleep. Carol Sue is a great host and very responsive when we had a small issue. The only bad part of our stay was leaving. We would love to come back again some time. If I could give this property 10 stars, I would.

Perfect House, Perfect Location
My family stayed here for a long weekend to visit some relatives in the area. The house was absolutely amazing. Carol Sue thought of everything. The kitchen was stocked with many extras as well as all the settings for entertaining. Loved all the glassware. The beds were luxurious with upscale bedding and very comfortable mattresses. The bathrooms were all completely new and stocked with anything you might have forgotten. The furnishings and decorations throughout the house were unique and well thought out as you can tell she loves it all. Be on the lookout for all the references to birds! I especially loved the kaleidoscope in the living room and playing cribbage in the kitchen. Also, the lighting throughout the home was amazing. Settings for any mood or occasion. We all wanted to move right in!
Since this is the first time Carol Sue has rented out this property, my family and I were trying to figure out some honest things she could improve on for the next guests. Usually, this isn't a problem. All we could think of is a coat rack by the front door. We were draping our coats in the sunroom or on the dining room chairs. Not a big deal at all. The staircase in the guest house is a little precarious--don't do it barefoot!!
This is a wonderful house with a scenic view. I want to come back in the summer to enjoy the patio and water activities. Thank you, Carol Sue for making my long weekend memorable!

Beautiful House in a Lovely Setting. Perfect for Family/ Friends Get-togethers.
This beautifully appointed home set among the trees was the perfect gathering spot for our sibs reunion. Ideal for groups that like to cook, the kitchen is the heart of the home and comes very well supplied with a wide range of cookware and utensils. (The kitchen knives, sharp and elegant, were a joy to work with.) But cooking is not the only activity available. There are kayaks and lawn games and books and puzzles galore. The house is situated between Seattle (by ferry) and the Olympic National Park and you can choose a mix of urban and outdoor activities. The house was a great spot for us and I highly recommend it.

Peaceful, luxurious, charming home!
This has been our favorite VRBO rental by far! I was giddy with excitement when we walked into this most charming home overlooking the beautiful, peaceful bay! Beds/pillows were so comfortable, bathrooms were gorgeous, and the kitchen was fabulous with lots of counter space and was VERY well stocked. We ate all of our dinners outside on the large table which was probably our favorite. Such a beautiful setting! We played badminton, sat around the fire pit at night, looked for shells during the day and played cards/board games. There may have been some wine consumed too. 😉 Truly a magical family vacation that we won’t forget!

Outstanding Waterfront Home
A lovingly restored and upgraded historic property in a serene setting. Although it is obviously also a family home, it is set up as if it were a boutique hotel but with none of the pretentiousness. Easy communication with the host. The supremely equipped cooking kitchen is organized with everything to hand (very helpful labels!). Everything you need for outside recreation on the secure grounds, plus the bonus of kayaks and stand up paddle boards if you have a hankering to meet the serene waters of Oyster Bay in the flesh. We would give this VRBO a 10 if we could. The pictures are accurate, but the reality is beyond expectation. Thanks to the individuals who shared this supreme property with us.

Amazing stay!
This property is even more lovely and perfect than it appears online! We stayed for a week and could not have been more thrilled with the impeccably decorated house, charming guest cottage, gorgeously landscaped grounds, and beautiful views. We held a small wedding and dinner for our daughter here and it was magical! The grounds were in full bloom, the sunset glowed off of Oyster Bay and the house served as a perfect venue. The host was so attentive to our every question and need. We had a small emergency with one of the bathrooms and the host had a plumber on-site immediately and came herself to make sure that everything was perfect before the day of our celebration. I’m so glad we found this gem and grateful for the memories we made!

Fantastic House with Amazing Views!
We had a great time staying here. First off the look of the house is magical with so many niches and spaces to hang out in. The outside space was perfect for our group to dine and socialize. We loved sitting around the fire pit and dining alfresco. It was so beautiful with sunset views, lush grass, and blooming flowers. The inside is just as wonderful with comfortable beds and linens and plenty of room for our group of 9. The additional cottage was perfect for our people who wanted a little more quiet for their young family, and the 2nd week a retreat for older adult children to hang out later into the night. Every need was seen to from coffee, to laundry detergent, family games, and kayaks, bathrobes and lovely soaps.
We used the house as a springboard to visit surrounding quaint towns, hiking, and longer day outings to Tacoma, Seattle and Hurricane Ridge.
Can't say enough nice things about this rental. Carol Sue, the owner, was amazing to work with and helped to make our vacation in Bremerton perfect.

The home is very cozy and we had everything we needed. Kids and adults enjoyed the kayaks on the water and we brought our own paddleboards.

Über den Gastgeber
Zu Gast bei Carol Sue Barker
Carol Sue is a northwest native and happy to help with recommendations for local attractions and sight seeing.
Darum fiel die Entscheidung auf diese Unterkunft
The Kitsap Penninsula is a wonderful jumping off point for the Pacific Northwest. We are located 10 minutes from the Seattle Ferry. A ferry ride is a must for those visiting here for the first time, the ride through Rich Passage is magical then once in Elliot Bay the Seattle skyline is in full view for your family photo opportunities. Walking around Seattle is easy , the waterfront, the market, Pioneer Square is all right there. Parking in Seattle is expensive and difficult, the ability to leave your car in Bremerton is affordable and convenient. The Olympic peninsula is less than 40 minutes from here, crossing the Hood Canal floating bridge is stunning and your gateway to the Olympic National Park. There are many scenic drives and hikes here as well as charming Port Townsend and historic Fort Warden. Driving to Mount Rainier National Park is also about a 1.5 hour drive from this location and you'll avoid most of I-5 by getting there from this direction.
Das macht diese Unterkunft einzigartig
We are native to this area. Whatever unique northwest experience you're looking for we can likely point you in the right direction. Perched above the saltwater bay, this vacation home is a relaxing way to also experience beautiful views, a sunset kayak ride, a croquet game, or just a quiet glass of wine by the fire.
