Beachfront holiday rentals in Pierce County

Relaxed and beautiful location for our family of 3 plus dog. The trek from the house to the beach was, fast and easy with the paddleboards - even the dog enjoyed being out on the water! Lots of room to hangout and have fun. The karaoke battle was pretty epic! Thanks Mike & Eva!

Our stay at the Ostrich nest was great! Right on the water, with plenty of amenities and a fantastic outdoor space to take advantage of. We kayaked around the island in about 95 leisurely minutes using the provided kayaks and paddles. A/C was available but not needed - yet good to know it was there. The kitchen had everything you'd expect from a short term rental as well. All in all, it was a good weekend.

We placed a reservation months prior to our stay, so it goes without saying we’d been anticipating it - but I’m serious when I say the ONLY disappointment of staying at Nikki’s place was having to leave! From check in to check out - we had a wonderful time. The view is unparalleled - with substantial changes of tide and filled with wildlife, either swooping in from above (bald eagles) or popping up from below (otters, seals and even an orca whale). The home itself has everything you’d need - it’s literally jaw dropping how stunning it is. When a storm rolls in, It makes it easy to deal with (you could spend all day inside and be thankful for the view)…. And when the weather clears? It’s hard to describe, you just need to see it. The stairs are real - but my own mom (who’s in her 70s) had no problems with it - well lit and maintained - just pack smartly, else get a workout. This has been our top stay and we’ve had some GREAT ones. Nikki made everything easy. We hope to return!

We had such a lovely stay here over the Easter weekend – it was everything we hoped for and more! The house is clean, beautifully kept, and the views? Absolutely breathtaking. It’s one of those rare places that feels even better in person than in the pictures. It had everything we could possibly need – and then some. The hosts were simply wonderful – super friendly, accommodating, and just really easy to talk to. They made the whole experience feel warm and personal, not distant or transactional in any way. They even let us check in early and check out late, which made a huge difference for us with kids. Our days were filled with beach walks, seafood harvesting adventures, backyard chill time, and gorgeous sunsets. It felt like a perfect little reset from our busy lives. We were also celebrating our daughter’s 4th birthday during the stay, and she had an absolute blast. Can’t wait to come back. Thank you Dale & Carol.

Beautiful cottage on the water! The surroundings are very peaceful. Nice to watch the tides. the kitchen was well outfitted includingna gas range and teapot! Loved it, thanks, Erin!

This place was so beautiful. Lots of activity on the boardwalk. Cute little area to walk to. Lots of wildlife to watch. Beautiful mountains in the background. Shauna was responsive and the space was great.

Kenny & Kelly’s place was absolutely lovely. We stopped there as a place to rest and relax for a few days during our cross country road trip from Massachusetts with our dog, Fox. The water right outside our door was a dream. We did find some small pieces of glass and there are sharp rocks on the beach/yard. Not the fault of the owners, just the nature of a WA beach. But definitely recommend watching out for children’s feet, wear water shoes as well as dog paws. Our dog did cut his paw pretty bad on some glass while swimming, unfortunately. But again, this just comes with beach play. We brought our paddleboard and went out one day and that was absolutely perfect. We saw so much wildlife. The sun room was where we spent most of our time. Our dog, and we, loved watching the wildlife and the tide go in and out through the big glass windows. We would definitely stay here again if in the area!

Beautiful house on the water with Mountain View’s from the deck, wonderful fire pit with chairs right on the water, only regret not being able to stay longer as all the flowers were almost ready to bloom!

This place was great! Kids were fully entertained the entire time! We played on the beach, swam in the pool, made smores, and read ghost stories. It was perfect!

What a beautiful property! The listing looked exactly as described with the pool heated to the perfect temperature. Hot tub was also ready for us when we arrived. The views of Puget sound, Mt. Rainier, and chambers bay golf course were stunning. We saw a few deers in the neighborhood 2 days in a row. It’s the perfect spot for a PNW summer getaway! (And love that it’s dog friendly as well)

We stayed just for a couple of days, but enjoyed every minute here - the view from the deck is breathtaking, the house is super clean and has everything we needed. Our kids spent hours watching all kind of crabs and fish at the beach during the low tide and could not stop talking about all the creatures they saw even after we left :)

Easy place to crash before departing to the airport the next day

This was such a lovely weekend. Our weather surprised to the upside so we spent so much time outdoors stand up paddle boarding and kayaking on this small, lovely, and very calm lake. The cabin is next to a wetland so birds were plentiful and we listened to them while we enjoyed the lake and sun all weekend. Once the sun went down we were able to enjoy the outdoor heaters and the fire table with a glass of wine. Jenn provided the most thorough instruction booklet I have ever seen at a rental and the cabin was full of informative signage and instructions. Plenty of hot water, towels and supplies. Very comfortable and easy to watch a movie, cook dinner, and rest easy. There are other cabins on the lake but it’s very quiet. Everyone we interacted with was friendly. This cute little 1950s cabin has been renovated and is light, bright and very comfortable. Check in was easy and the cabin felt very secure. We would 100% stay again and recommend the hosts.

The waterfront cabin is wonderful and Bill and Sue are fantastic hosts! Two of us stayed there with my 85-year-old mother who is not very mobile. We parked right next to the front door so it was easy to move her inside. Mom was also able to venture out onto the spectacular water and mountain view deck using her walker. She has a hard time speaking but at one point she threw up her hands and came out with a complete sentence, “I love this place!” We did too. We enjoyed walking on the beach, watching boats, birds, and seals. Thank you again Bill, hope to stay there again someday.

It’s a must if you are looking for a peaceful family getaway! Our family really enjoyed the beautiful views, open windows, spacious patio, kayaks and wildlife. The property was very clean, with clear and detailed instructions. Definitely returning for a longer stay!

Stayed here for a hiking trip with friends and loved it! The house is cute, cozy, and perfectly located—secluded with beautiful water views, but still just 15-20 mins from Gig Harbor’s shops and restaurants. After long hikes, soaking in the hot tub was amazing. The host was also incredibly responsive and shared lots of helpful info. Only thing missing was a washer/dryer, but it wasn’t a big deal. Great stay overall.

by far one of the best air b&b's I've ever stayed at. koshstra was very communicative and prompt with any questions. feel in love with herron island and Koshtra's super cute home, with impeccable views of the water. book with absolute confidence!

We enjoyed our stay at the groovy lagoon very much! The hosts thought of everything from spices to having a big bottle or olive oil on hand, umbrellas, lots of beach towels. The kayaks were great but one doesn’t have a back rest which makes for a tougher time relaxing on it. The deck is lovely and we spent a lot of time out there, it could use an outdoor sofa but I understand it rains and might get moldy. The living room was a little smaller than the pictures and just has a small seat and the couch. If our whole family was there we wouldn’t all fit in the couch. Overall we loved our stay here and even when it was windy out the deck is super protected and calm. The heated floor in the bathroom was nice as well. The bedding was nice. It’s actually a 10 min drive to gig harbor but we liked being away from the hustle of the harbor to be honest.

We had a nice stay at Michael’s place, we enjoyed the river and garden and how much he put into his outdoor space. The home was clean and well kept. He had lots of recommendations for the river area and we appreciated that.

A stunning location with beautiful windows and an expansive deck to take it all in. We enjoyed the views from the hot tub, and lingering over meals. The beds were cozy and everything was clean and well appointed. Each room having it's own bathroom was a nice bonus. Such a sweet spot I would certainly return.
