what an amazing place to stay!
We contacted the host and asked if we might be able to get into the place a couple of hours early, and he said he would let us know. The day of arrival I got a text saying we could check in shortly. We arrived at his place and were warmly greeted and given a wonderful tour of the house and its history! We toured the grounds and were told if we had any questions to call him. The house even had a nice bowl of fresh fruit on the table! It is a wonderful location with a very private back yard and a nice waterfront beach to explore. It is quite the hidden gem in the area. Near the house are several great restaurants, grocery stores and its near the ferry. We will absolutely be coming back! Lovely place and wonderful host! Thank you for a great family trip! Scott

We were very impressed with the responsiveness and thoughtfulness of the manager and quality of the home. The home is charming with beautiful furnishings and art (nice eye candy). The kitchen is nicely stocked with spices and all the dishes/cookware you need. The views are amazing, location excellent to restaurants and shopping. We definitely recommend this property!

Lovely house on the water

Amazing view, timeless architecture.
This home was spectacular. The host met us upon arrival to explain the various features of this 1937 vintage home. Remarkable decor with lots to see. The backyard overlooks an inlet and is framed by towering pines and cedars. Great place to relax... but close to grocery shopping, Bremerton (don't miss the foot ferry to Port Orchard) and we made the easy trip to Tacoma for the Glass Museum. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home.

Beautiful and relaxing
We had a wonderful time! The home was clean, comfortable and beautiful. We had a full house so meal times were a bit tricky as the eating area is best suited for four people but there was a table on the deck so we could dine outdoors as well. The view was beautiful. We had small children in our party so the stairs and decor presented a bit of a challenge. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. I would definitely recommend this home!

Beautiful home in Bremerton!
This home was perfect for our family vacation. My husband and I took our 4 grandchildren to Seattle for our annual family vacation. The kids loved kayaking on the bay. The view of the bay was absolutely beautiful. Tammy was so kind to welcome us and give us a tour of the house. The house was very clean and quiet. The location was very convenient to grocery stores and the ferry terminal was just a few miles down the road. Ferry was easy to take to Seattle. Tony's Pizza was a great recommendation from Tammy and Rod. We would highly recommend this home! Thank you Rod and Tammy!

Very nice place. Party of six adults were very satisfied.
Stylish older home. Plenty of room. Everything worked and was in order. A flight of stairs to basement for laundry, game room, and toilet/shower. A flight upstairs to bedrooms and bath. All good just be careful. Very nice deck and lawn area. Nice view of bay. Ten minutes to ferry. Some noise from nearby traffic street, but house is private.

Week at Oyster Bay
Just as picturesque as the photos in the listing. Plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the gorgeous views. Grill was clean and in perfect working order. Kayaks to paddle around in the calm bay and fireworks reflecting off of the water on the 4th of July were unforgettable! Well-stocked kitchen and comfortable beds/bedding. Plenty of towels and other necessities were provided. The washer and dryer came in very handy as did the provided laundry soap. We wanted for nothing. Rod was communicative and super accommodating. He gave us tips on enjoying the house, finding groceries, and pointing out local restaurants and things to do in the area. The Pearl on Oyster Bay was a perfect location for our family to explore Puget Sound. We also took a day trip to Seattle as well as visited Olympic National Park and Mt. Rainier. Loved our stay!

Amazing property with immense opportunities!!!
Must stay here!!! Such an amazing property win so many opportunities for fun included! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! We went out on the paddle boats everyday and saw a mom and baby seal. We also caught our own crabs to eat one night which was incredible! There were lots of jellyfish in the water several days but that didn't detour others to water ski or play in the water. We loved collecting sea shells, watching the tide come and go, watching the hermit crabs, and enjoying the amazing view! Truly one of a kind! The view from the porch for our meals was breathtaking! We would grill up some fish (thanks to the very close grocery store) and enjoy each night! The ferry ride to Seattle was close as well and a must do! We also visited the town nearby called Pousblo (per recommendation of the home's owner) and found it super charming! Overall a 5 star experience!

Nice but...
This is a very nice house with a very comfortable living room and a pleasant view of lake-like Oyster Bay. But it is a very old house. If you are not used to the clanging and hissing of an old radiator system, you may -- like us -- find yourself waking up frequently through the night. And if you are over 5.5 feet, you will need to be on guard due to the curved dormer ceilings upstairs. The kitchen was functional but there is a quantum difference between a VRBO that is dedicated to vacation rentals and a home, like this, that has the feel that the owner vacated for a few days, not least in how the kitchen is equipped. It fronts onto a four-lane highway (though you can't hear it from the house) with an unmarked driveway, so finding it the first (or second) time is a challenge, as is getting out of the driveway onto the busy road.

Charming peaceful home in a great location
We had a great stay. The only real downsides are few. It's on a busy street and the driveway is narrow and a bit overgrown which makes it hard to find. Once you find it, the house is a wonderful place to stay. The location is great, convenient to the highway and the city center. And even though it is on a busy street, noise really wasn't an issue. I think in part because the house sits below the road. And second because the house is so old and well built, you just don't hear the road when you are inside. This is an old house, 1937 I think. And it retains all of the charm of an old house. It is in remarkable shape for a house of this age. The kitchen has been redone, but the bathrooms are old but in really good shape. It's very charming. Just don't expect everything to be up to date. The heat is by radiators. They make a little bit of noise but the house is remarkably comfortable. And the view is fantastic. It sits right on a little bay and the view is wonderful. Particularly from the living room and the kitchen. We had plenty of space. The house is nice and quiet and it was a really nice place to come back to after a day of sightseeing. We highly recommend it.

Quaint, needs some renovation, but great views and on the bay
This 1937 home has beautiful hardwood floors and a great location on the bay. The kitchen had everything we needed, but was very tight for four adults; and the little kitchen table was almost too small for us. Luckily, we only used it for breakfasts. There are three bedrooms (2 Queens and 2 twins) and one full bathroom in the upstairs hallway for everyone to share. I should have paid closer attention to the bathroom arrangements, as the second shower is in the basement. I would have preferred to have an en suite master bedroom/bathroom arrangement. There is also another toilet on the main level. My husband and adult son are both over 6 feet and could not walk upright through the upstairs hallway to and from the bathroom, because of the slanted design in the low ceilings. We visited during a cold snap (with snow!) so the heating system was constantly working. The radiators were loud and hissed, which occasionally woke us up at night. The house cleaner also asked us to drain the dirty/rusty water from the basement radiator system every other day and refill it, which I thought was odd. Something happened to the plumbing while we were there too, and water gushed from a basement wall and under the baseboards while someone was taking a shower. It was probably a burst pipe, due to the cold weather. The owner was out of town while we there, but luckily his house cleaner was able to contact him and let us make alternate hotel arrangements for the remainder of our stay. I imagine this home would be much nicer during the summer months. There was a kayak in the basement for guests, and a great deck overlooking the bay. It was just too cold outside for us to take advantage of them while we were there.

Finding my groove
Thank you Rod for greeting my upon arrival. It was so kind when you noticed I was by myself and made sure that I felt safe being alone. Took time to show me how to work everything. Toured the outside and inside. Your home was so beautiful and warming. I didn’t want to leave. I will be coming back in the future. I recommend this for everyone I was able to swim and enjoy the 90 degree weather and read my book and enjoy the view on a rainy day. The view location was breathtaking. Thank you for opening your home

The commuter ferry is considered a 'not to be missed' Seattle experience.

Article from Travel Magazine:

Title
The World's Most Scenic Ferry Rides
Washington State Ferry

Seattle's island-clogged Puget Sound makes ferry travel to and from Seattle a way of life. It’s no surprise that Washington State Ferry, part of the Washington State Department of Transportation, is the largest ferry fleet in the United States, and the third largest operator in the world, carrying more than 23 million passengers a year. For visitors, the breathtakingly gorgeous commute to the Kitsap Peninsula, where you can stroll the waterfront, dine in style, tour a vineyard, or rent a bike is a must.

The Kitsap Peninsula lies in the heart of Puget Sound, and is surrounded by over 300 miles of saltwater shoreline and located between the Olympic and Cascade Mountain ranges in Washington State. Kitsap offers miles of accessible shoreline, world-class golf courses, an eclectic collection of communities and endless recreational, cultural and scenic discoveries.

Many restaurants, amenities, and attractions are within a few minutes of the house.
