While I was here I was already thinking about when I could be back. Beautiful location and an excellent property I would recommend this spot to anyone!
Accomodations and location worked great for all of us. The trips to the beach were enjoyed by all. Saw seals daily but no whales.
Would recommend this stay to anyone.
Beautiful location and great space to enjoy with family
We enjoyed our time at Driftwood beach. The house accommodated 6 adults and 5 kids easily! Beautiful view’s from the house! Both Annie and her husband were very responsive to the propane issue and got it resolved quickly! We loved our stay and would recommend this place to anyone going to the Gig Harbor area!!
We had a lovely long ladies weekend! Everything about the accommodations was perfect for our stay. Breathtaking views and lots of privacy. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!
Sherri and Friends
The pictures truly don’t do this home justice. Absolutely stunning. The home was clean and spacious. Communication with Annie was prompt and she went above and beyond, even sourcing extra pack n plays for our infants. Couldn’t recommend more highly!
It was a beautiful place to stay with 10 family members. We saw seals, otter, eagles and an Orca, which was just magical. The 2 upstairs rooms with king beds do not have window coverings, so although its a great view, you may want bring some eye masks. We bought all our food before we arrived, and later realized that there is a Coscto about 15 min away. We went to the Olalla Winery which was so lovely and a must see. Then we ventured into Gig Harbor, which was very fun also. A few members did use the kayak and we had brought a paddle board that they used on a calm day. The 2 decks were good hang out spaces. Overall, a wonderful trip and would recommend!
Annie was spot on when she said our grandchildren would love her beautiful home and beach! Endless entertainment for the whole family steps from the kitchen - beachcombing for crabs, walking to the Olalla Market for treats at low tide, splashing in the community sand beach, and successful kayak fishing. We saw the eagle daily that nests close by, seals with their seal pups and a porpoise pod in the distance. Way cool. Thanks, Annie!
This home is the absolute best for a large family gathering. Great living and outdoor space, incredibly well equipped kitchen, super comfy beds and the most peaceful views and location I’ve ever been in add up to a week to remember. The three 6-12 year olds spent hours finding crabs under rocks and wading in the water. Nature hikes are close by and Gig Harbor is available for eating out. The museum in Gig Harbor was a hit too. The adults sat on the deck, cooked great meals, and slept so well in the comfy beds . All in all, perfect.
Driftwood Beach was a fantastic home. Very peaceful and relaxing. We stayed here with our family of 12 for 6 nights. The house has great indoor and outdoor spaces. The bedrooms are wonderful. Most with their own bathroom. The kitchen had everything that you would need. The views were gorgeous and we saw lots of seals, eagles, and other wildlife. We had fun playing on the beach and exploring. This truly is a great home to get away. Annie Jolie was great to answer any questions and quick to respond to any issues. It is a trip our family will remember.
We were a group of 4 couples and it was the perfect layout. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. The common space had amazing views and had many areas for indoor and outdoor relaxation. This home is right on the water and from the upper bedrooms, at times it feels like you are literally floating on the water. This is a very comfortable space. You will love it. Once you get there, you will want to settle in and not go anywhere. But, there is also so much to see in the area. Wish we could have stayed longer. Our stay was four nights. We will be back!
We had the perfect stay at Driftwood Beach. It truly is a slice of paradise. We rent beachfront homes all over the world and this place was truly special. You feel like you have your own beach and feel like you are sitting on a boat from any room and deck. We had a multigenerational group from little kids to elderly and it worked well(had to navigate a couple of steps but it was doable). The views were just spectacular. We all had some of the best sleep EVER- it was beyond peaceful and quiet. It was super easy to get to from Seattle/Bellevue- by car and even have the option to take the ferry if you want. We did both and the kiddos were thrilled! The kids loved watching for seals(no whales) and searching for little crabs on the beach. The water is super calm so you can easily watch the little ones from the deck while enjoying adult time. The owner was incredibly responsive and was eager to make our stay perfect.
We will definitely be back!
This property was perfect for a get together location for a group of families with small kids. Tons of space and amazing finishes. The beach and water access are awesome.
We did an early family holiday weekend here in December. We loved it! Well appointed and thoughtfully decorated (they had even put up Christmas decorations!), we would return for sure.
The house is beautiful, and the location is unbeatable. We all had an amazing time while the kids explored the beach all day. When the tide was high, it felt as if we were actually on a boat because the deck was situated just right. I would definitely stay there again.
This property is amazing and managed very professionally. It was a perfect fit for our needs. We really enjoyed cooking and eating in the beautiful kitchen while keeping an eye out for the wildlife right outside the windows (dolphins, seals, otters, deer, and bald eagle!). We plan on returning in the future.
