Captain's Quarters

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Spend a cozy, quiet getaway in Gig Harbor, the 'Gateway to the Olympic Peninsula' at this updated, downtown cottage. Boasting central walking access one block from the downtown waterfront, this home offers a prime position for exploring Olympic National Park, Seattle, and the vibrant island communities of Puget Sound. At home, enjoy the yard and peek-a-boo sound view from the dining room, furnished deck, or sunroom to sip your coffee while enjoying the all-season splendor of the Pacific Northwest! Make the most of the longer summer days and fire up the gas grill for some alfresco dining or walk to and dine in one of the many downtown restaurants. Rent kayaks and explore the charming harbor and paddle among the seals, fishing boats, and the historic net sheds. Stroll down to Skansie Brothers Park to visit the weekly local farmers market and tune in to a live summer concert series performance.

Modern design and updated amenities accent the bright, single-level interior of this fisherman’s home. You'll find everything you need for family mealtimes in the well-equipped, full kitchen, including a five-burner range and dishwasher. Grab a seat on the plush sectional in the living room for a classic game night or stream shows and movies on the wall-mounted smart 70-inch TV before turning in for a good night's sleep in one of the comfortable beds.

Captain’s Quarters was in a great location, easy walking to Susanne’s Bakery and Millville Pizza, as well as other Gig Harbor landmarks. It was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. We would stay there again.

Wonderful stay in Comfortable Home.
Beautiful home inside. Everything modern, comfortable and nicely decorated. Kitchen was great, nice bathroom, comfortable beds. Nice view across hill and homes above the harbor with view of harbor from beautiful living room, glassed in porch and deck. Short walk down to the harbor, the shops and walkway along the water with little parks and view points. Had some great seafood in close-by restaurants.

Gig Harbor Stay, to check out new property, in Squim.
It's a nice place, very roomy with lots of windows. The view is of the neighboring houses and a bit of the harbor, the architecture and calm waters has a very calming effect. It's very 'walkable'. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather all week and we enjoyed being right there.

Location is the positive
This property looked great on the listing and is in a great walkable location however it is clearly is pet friendly home which was not shared. The home immediately smelled like a wet dog when we walked in and the smell never went away. It works great for people who have animals but we do not and would have liked to have known prior to booking as we would not have selected this home for both allergy and smell reasons. Also, the beds are all memory foam which we find to be very uncomfortable and I ended up sleeping on the sofa (which wreaked of dog) in order to be able to sleep. Outside of location, it is an average home but definitely not something we would select again based on the details shared.

We loved the location, walking distance to all of the restaurants. The linens on the beds need to be improved, the couch and dishes need to be better. Also, the curb appeal was poor with dead grass and the property marketed air conditioning and there was not any air conditioning, it was hot. Other than that, it was a charming place.

Gig Harbor July 2023
Nice location. Very clean home, with simple layout. Two ‘King’ beds was definitely a plus. More than ample towels, sheets and bath amenities to get started and for short stays would cover all your needs. Very large TV with streaming options. The bottle of wine was a nice courtesy/complement to the rental. Draw back was the home is sparsely furnished in a number of ways; small well used couch in the living room, and that was the only piece of furniture in there to sit on other than four small stools. Dining room has an older overly large wooden table and six heavy chairs. The enclosed porch has only one very small window that opens to bring in fresh air, has no ceiling fan to move air or window shades to help block the sun that can heat the room to the point you don’t want to use it. The porch would be a great addition to the home, but appears neglected. Similar issues with the deck; sparsely furnished with low end metal chairs and small tables but no umbrella or other means of shade, and wooden railing is unstable in places. Again the home is in a nice area, very convenient to the Harbor and Millville historic district. Definitely would rent it again if improvements were made.

Gig Harbor Stay
This was my absolute favorite ever VRBO! It was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. It appears that it has recently been totally renovated. The sunroom is very impressive, but it was too warm to use during my visit. The location is great and you can walk to all the activities. Kitchen is well stocked and we cooked all meals at the house. I met my sister and her family there for the weekend. My sister is in a wheel chair and the house was very accommodating. I would recommend this house to everyone!
