We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The view at the home is absolutely incredible. From morning coffee outside watching the sunrise, to a glass of wine or cocktail in the evening, followed by a late night firepit, we couldn’t get enough of the beautiful view. The home is nice and had everything we needed.
Everything was really fantastic. The home, the setting, the neighborhood, all the activities on the island, the food, the managers input and advice, etc. Beautiful weather didn’t hurt either! Exactly what we were looking for for a family retreat and downtime. We’ll be back!
We had such a lovely stay in this amazing house! Lucky with the weather too as it was sunny and mild for the whole week. We sat on the back porch and around the fire pit for hours watching the many boats coming and going. House is extremely comfortable and tidy. A welcome basket of local treats was a very nice touch. Loved the area too with a delicious cafe a short walk away and great Italian market/restaurant with fresh house made pastas. We will definitely return!!
We have stayed at this property several times
and have had a wonderful experience every time.
The location is perfect to explore the island’s many
activities. The water views are spectacular for those
days when you want to just hang out and enjoy the
property. The home is as advertised in the listings
and the property owner is super responsible to any
questions you Mohave with a team in place to
respond to your every needs. This remains our go to
place on Bainbridge.

Stunning modern, stylish house with a jaw-dropping view of Puget Sound, Seattle and the Cascade Mountains from the east side of Bainbridge Island. The host has thought of everything from heated floors in the bathroom, to reading glasses, binoculars, and a fully appointed kitchen. Many books, fascinating games for all ages, warm fireplaces. The house exudes a quiet serenity. A short walk to a wonderful market with local food and wine and a top-notch, niche Italian restaurant. There are beach walks and trails nearby as well. Thank you to the lovely hosts. We will be back!
Absolutely stunning views that the listing doesn’t do justice. Great house. Very comfortable for family of four with two teenagers needing separate space. Easy walk to Rolling Bay for food, and barely ten minutes to Winslow for everything else.
Our main priority was the best view possible from Bainbridge Island, and that’s what this home features. From almost any room you have a spectacular view of the coast line and Puget Sound. The master bedroom and outside balcony were masterfully sited. The home was comfortable inside and out.
Amazing house! Incredible views. Excellent support team. Perfect place to stay while exploring Bainbridge island and nearby areas on Olympic Peninsula. We will definitely return when our travels bring us back to the area.

Outstanding rental.
The view is unreal. One of the more spectacular locations of any rental I have seen. House is simple but clean and modern. Worth the price!
One of our favorite VRBOs of all time. The house is very comfortable and the views from the indoor and outdoor spaces are spectacular, especially the upper level suite. The location is great as well. You can easily walk to an amazing Italian market/restaurant, a world class bagel shop, and a super unique market that is a combination plant store, grocery coop, and outdoor recreation store. There's also a coffee shop and we didn't even get to the winery but I'm sure it's amazing as well!
Our host is always welcoming and we appreciate this. A number of new, little comforting touches were tasteful additions. I also appreciated the improved lamps and furniture layout.Leaving this property always come with the weight of regret. I find this perch along Puget Sound to be the most healing and rejuvenating of anywhere I have traveled. I also seem to get a phenomenal amount of work done with a flood of new insights that are always welcome. I will look forward to returning again and again.
This is by far the most beautiful property we have ever rented. The views are breathtaking, the house stunning yet comfortable. We appreciated that every bedroom had its own bathroom! The house is immaculate, and the hosts went out of their way for us, including providing a beautiful welcome basket. We can’t wait to come back.
Short driving distance to most attractions on the island.
Loved the 180 degree views of the water from both floors. Loved the heated bathroom floor in the master bedroom.
Peaceful, quiet location. Well equipped house. Accessible and responsive property manager. Very nice welcome gifts.
Five minute walk to coffee shop.
We enjoyed our stay.
Gorgeous. Green, blue, flowers! Birds abound, ships sail the sound. Owner and Property Mgr were timely with their responses including recommendations on Bainbridge. Clear directions to find home, and a helpful binder to explore the island. Their thoughtful welcoming gifts got us off to a delicious start and very nicely complemented the expansive views. We were traveling with our two young adult children and all of us had both space to ourselves within the home, and plenty of room to interact inside and outside in the nicely landscaped yard too. Closet with puzzles and games; ample clean towels and basic supplies in all bathrooms and kitchen. We visited during a full moon and the already stunning views opened to tidal water changes in Puget Sound. Carly's Cafe in Rolling Bay was an enjoyable easy morning walk to fresh coffee and pastries, and Winslow had plenty to offer in food, interesting stores, art, friendly locals. It was an absolutely delightful holiday; wish we could've stayed! Highly recommend.
