Beautiful home on the water

We enjoyed just about everything in this house. The location on the water is idyllic and exploring the water line as the tides went in and out was fun. The view of Mt Rainier (when or sunny or sunny-ish) is spectacular!The house itself is in good condition, was clean and had plenty of space for our party of ten. Our kids enjoyed the amenities in the house like the pool table.The owners of the property are very nice and were exceptionally responsive when a (relatively minor) issue arose.Overall, we had a terrific time and would highly recommend staying here.

Location

Location on the Sound was wonderful! We especially loved the deck and firepit and ate most of our meals out there enjoying the amazing views. We also watched river otters, eagles, even a seal or two out in the water. Having the kayaks and paddleboards was awesome. House is so cute and quaint and it worked well for our family gathering. The upstairs bathroom could use updating as it doesn't have a shower. Noleen and the Mgmt company were flexible and so easy to work with!

Slow start, strong finish

The only complaint I have is that I had to do a significant amount of cleaning when I first arrived to get the house ready for my family guests that I was hosting. The outdoor patio was in complete disarray, I was brushing away cobwebs through my first walkthrough of the house, and the kitchen was stunningly unclean, from gross stains in the refrigerator and freezer, stains all over the cabinets, crumbs on the window seating area, and the counter tops were gross. I had to spend more than an hour cleaning and arranging, which for the amount of fees for cleaning, etc., should not have been the case. Honestly, I should be reimbursed the cleaning fees since I did more cleaning in that house than whoever has been hired to do the cleaning. But once that was done, everything went perfectly. The house was perfect for my family of ten, the views were amazing, and we had a fantastic time.

Mama's 82nd birthday

We were celebrating a special birthday and the beautiful Illahee house and its magical location were perfect for us. We so enjoyed the the tidal fluctuations and kayaks and wildlife--all so special. And so many fireworks to see across the water.

Very nice vacation home

It’s a very cozy place with a beautiful beach front view. Perfect for family gathering get away. The kayaks and boards are news and the location is very convenient it is close to Costco and Safeway etc.. very close to downtown Bremerton too. We had a great time there. Love the back deck. Good place to chill out at night with family and friends. Quiet neighbourhood too. We will definitely come back again

Nice House

House was very nice. The property manager was out of the country during our visit and no other local contact was given. I just had a few question and she did not answer her phone. I texted and one went unanswered and one was answered the next day which was too late.

Great waterfront house!

Our family had a wonderful stay at this home. It was very clean and just as advertised. There were eleven of us and we had plenty of room in the house. The kids loved the bunk bed room in the basement. Plenty of kitchen supplies, towels and blankets. We enjoyed the waterfront view. Our kids loved exploring on the shore when the tide went out. We had a whole collection of shells and other finds. There were even boots under the porch that the kids could use to wade in the water with- such fun! Only a 10 min. drive to Bremerton. The only hiccup was we received the check-in instruction email a day late, so that was a bit confusing. Though I booked through Vrbo, it actually is a Revolve property, so maybe that's the issue. We would definitely recommend this house!

Peaceful place! Great vacation for family

We stayed there for 5days with our family. We had an amazing time making unforgettable memories that the kids will cherish for a long time. The house is spacious, cozy and cute and so cleaned. There is many paddle boards, kayaks to enjoy outdoor sports. It’s nestled in a cute town, and the location couldn’t be more perfect with beautiful view of Mt Ranier. We saw Bald Eagles daily. It’s just a few minutes away from Ferry station where we would take to downtown Seattle. We can’t wait to come back next time.
