The Beekeeper s Cottage is a short term/vacation rental. Located beside the main home the beekeeper s cottage has friendly, happy bees to right of driveway that provide fresh honey. We have 2 sweet white small ducks that enjoy the back-yard pond/water-fall area. We also have a 12-year old black manx kitty names Gideon, and a small indoor dog named Daisy plus a sweet bunny named Newman.
In summer we have a beautiful garden and a wonderful back-yard and relaxing hammock.
The cottage is decorated in a beekeepers style, with an antique white iron bed with a new mattress. A small kitchenette and a bathroom with a shower.
This property is also ideal for traveling professionals on an out of state project, locals needing a residence while their home is under construction, traveling nurses, graduate college students, people moving into the state and looking for a place to stay while they house shop.

This beekeeper s cottage is an easy drive to Tacoma, Bremerton, Seattle, Bellevue, Mt. Rainier and the rainforests of the Olympic Mountain range.
But first make sure you partake in everything Gig Harbor and nearby areas have to offer. After you've strolled through the quaint downtown and shopped the boutiques and antique stores take your pick from any of the great restaurants and cafes. Seafood is always on the menu.
From the ever popular Tides Tavern for casual waterfront dining to Anthony s where the views are as fabulous as the food. You won t be disappointed by the wide variety of culinary choices.
Gig Harbor is surrounded by water so you can take your pick of activities. Go whale watching with Destiny Tours, check out the History Museum to learn about Gig Harbor s nautical past, pack a picnic and head to one of the many great state parks for a day of sun and sand.
Paddle boarding, kayaking, boating, shopping, restaurants and coffee shops abound within blocks.
Double check the address we are on 64th Ave but Google maps sometimes send people to 86th for some unknown reason.

- "very pleasant atmostphere" - "We were looking for a place to decompress after some hectic work weeks and this cottage was perfect. It's a little off-the-beaten track in a residential area about 12-15 minutes drive from Gig Harbor but the second you walk through the back gate you feel the stress drain from your shoulders. The grounds are kept immaculately and we loved sitting on the porch of the cottage with a glass of wine taking in the surroundings. The cottage is tiny but adorable and kept spotlessly clean. If you're looking for a place to clear your head and get out of the rat-race for a while this cottage is for you."

We were blessed with great weather and spent a good amount of time on the deck when we weren't exploring Gig Harbor and vicinity."

This is a priceless experience." - "This was my second stay here, I love this place, it's right on the water, the Olympic range is your background view, the host is the best. We will definitely be back." - "Very pleasant experience, no issues whatsoever." - "So many good things to say about this sweet waterfront cabin. We stayed for six weeks in the fall while the weather turned from warm and sunny to cold and rainy - it was gorgeous every moment. Steve obviously puts a lot of love into his place - it is well-built, cozy, cute, abundantly-supplied, and in general, extremely comfortable. Steve was very helpful and accommodating; he made sure we had what we needed and that everything worked, and he was pleasant and friendly but unobtrusive while taking care of routine maintenance issues. Grocery shops, restaurants and the cute town of Gig Harbor are just 15 minutes away. We loved coming "home" to our place on Raft Island."

Description

Perfect for families and business travelers. Just over the Tacoma Narrows, a private, large (1,300+ sq. ft. / 121 sq. m.), two-bedroom, one-bath in-law apartment in an amazing midcentury modern house with a full kitchen, large washer/dryer, two desks, high-speed wi-fi (150mbps), two bedrooms with king beds, a living room with a 4K 55" Smart TV, queen sofa bed, and a dining table. Private entrance and plenty of off-street parking. Sleeps a maximum of six people.

The space
My home is a custom midcentury modern house designed by Pacific Northwest architect Alan Liddle—a Frank Lloyd Wright associate. It sits on almost an acre of wooded land in a residential neighborhood adjacent to WA Highway 16 and steps from the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. The suite is over 1,300 sq. ft. in a sunny daylight basement.

The house has central air-conditioning and heat with vents in the suite though there is no thermostat in the suite. I keep the house on the cool side. There are built-in wall heaters in the living room and each bedroom plus extra blankets for chilly nights.

Coffee, tea, and bottled water are available in the kitchen, along with cooking basics—spices and oils.

Guest access
There are steps down from the parking area to the suite.

The guest suite is a large, private, sunny daylight basement apartment consisting of a spacious living/dining room, full kitchen, one bathroom, en-suite oversized washer/dryer, and two bedrooms. The rest of the house is where I live. Feel free to walk around the property. On a clear day, you'll catch an amazing bridge, water and mountain view from the southeast corner of the property.

Guest interaction
The guest suite has a keypad lock so you're able to self check-in. I'll send you an access code a few days before you check in. The code is changed for each guest.

If I'm home when you arrive I'll be happy to meet you, show you the space, and answer any questions. If, while you're here, you need anything at all please don't hesitate to ask.

Neighborhood overview
The neighborhood has easy access to Washington Highway 16 yet is off the beaten path. As you walk around the property and the neighborhood you'll glimpse bridge, Mount Rainier, and water views through towering trees. There's a beautiful waterfront park with beach access at the end of the street and a hidden, wooded park around the corner. Also, we're just minutes by car from downtown Gig Harbor, restaurants, and shops.

About a block away is the pedestrian/bike trail that crosses the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. From the house to the middle of the bridge is a 20-minute walk. It's definitely a must-see with spectacular views.

Getting around
We're not accessible by public transportation so you'll need a car (or taxi, Uber, Lyft).

There's plenty of on-property parking. There is a toll to cross the Tacoma Narrows Bridge leaving Gig Harbor (no toll entering Gig Harbor). It's $6 cash or $7 pay-by-mail. If you're in a rental car, check with the rental company before using pay-by-mail as they might have additional fees. Alternatively, you can buy a Good-To-Go pass, which costs $5 and reduces the toll to $5.

Other things to note

You'll probably hear us move about during the day. Most nights we're in bed and sound asleep before 11 pm and these days whenever I entertain it's usually during afternoon hours.

We are very close to the bridge so you can hear highway traffic when outside, especially during the morning rush hour. Inside the suite is very quiet, almost completely silent.

- "Fantastic 2 bedroom apartment style place. Host was very accommodating. Incredible location for many different activities." - "We loved our stay here.

The amenities were well beyond my expectations, and the location was beautiful and convenient."

- "Lovely location and accommodation to relax and enjoy the beauty and boat action of the Sound while still being close to downtown" - "An unparalleled view, inside and out. The host is truly gracious. Our daughter loved her stay!!!" - "Wonderful, cozy condo with a beautiful view. Kara is a great & caring host. Highly recommended." - "The view is spectacular and the neighborhood is quiet. Location close to downtown is great too. The host was easy to work with and did an excellent job. This unit is well equipped and the pictures accurately depict the space. The range might qualify as an antique, but it worked great, adding to the charm of the unit. It's hard to find anything to say that's critical about the place, but here goes. The steps down to the unit are easy to manage, but not wheelchair friendly so a person with a disability might want to reconsider."

The location was fantastic: an easy to walk to the harbor and several near-by restaurants and you even had some views of the water.

Our secluded cabin is located directly on the water with panoramic views of the Port of Tacoma, Vashon Island, Point Defiance, and the breathtaking Mount Rainier. This is the ideal spot for nature lovers or anyone who enjoys a nice view while enjoying a cozy day inside.

This cozy one-bed, one-bath cabin includes a full kitchen as well as a small dining and living area and it's hooked up to wifi. There is a TV with a connected Blu-Ray player for a nice night in, or a lovely outdoor space that features plenty of seating and a fire pit a mere few feet away from high tide.

The cabin is only a short walk from our designated guest parking area. Note that the grass is a little uneven and the main access is down a decent-sized hill with stairs, so unfortunately it is not wheelchair accessible or great for people who are unsteady on their feet. You have access to the cabin and the grass area outside. Beach access is a short walk away via the park up the street. Unfortunately, the boat house is not accessible to guests, nor the stairs to the beach alongside it for safety concerns. While the upper property is not part of the listing, we understand you will need to pass through the yard to access the cabin or your car. We only ask that you do not loiter or hang out in the yard to be respectful of the property owners as well as the neighbors who share the open yard.

As mentioned above, nearby is a public park with beach access! Downtown Gig Harbor is also only 10 minutes away and it offers a variety of dining, shopping, and activities for people wanting to get out and explore the town!

My dad and I live on the property above should a problem arise. While we are close by, this is a very private space and we respect your privacy and hope you enjoy the tranquility and beauty of our cabin.

We have a dog that runs around the property. She is a very friendly Australian Shepard who will probably stop to say hi! If you have issues with dogs please be aware of this.

- "The views are stunning and we felt like we were on a boat so close to the water. We enjoyed watching the sea life and a nice walk down the beach.
