Holiday rentals with a kayak in Tacoma

It a wonderful visit! The beauty surrounding this place is amazing. We saw so much wildlife. Will definitely consider staying here again when we visit family.

This place is magical. It has a panoramic view of the lake, and wildlife galore. We watched two Canada geese families just feet from the windows, and duck parents with their ducklings shared the yard with the geese, deer, and a bunny. The home is spacious and nicely decorated. I did a lot of cooking while there, and I found all utensils I needed. Thanks, Michelle, for keeping pantry items left by previous guests! Our 4 day stay was delightful in this tranquil setting, and we would love to return.

This home is magical! The views are amazing and the beds are comfortable. Walking on the beach, kayaking and playing "name that critter in the sound" were just a few of our favorite things. I also had a couple questions for the host and he was super responsive. If this place is available for your dates, snatch it up!

Beautiful property with a really responsive host. One of my favorite places we’ve stayed at on AirBNB through and through. Would visit here many times again!

This was our family’s second time staying at this beautiful house! The house & landscaping is quite lovely!! The AC was not working & it was hot! Celia was very prompt in getting 2 portable air conditioners for the upstairs bedrooms. I would have liked a couple more bath towels & washcloths. Staying at this house has given us some fond memories!

We enjoyed our stay at the groovy lagoon very much! The hosts thought of everything from spices to having a big bottle or olive oil on hand, umbrellas, lots of beach towels. The kayaks were great but one doesn’t have a back rest which makes for a tougher time relaxing on it. The deck is lovely and we spent a lot of time out there, it could use an outdoor sofa but I understand it rains and might get moldy. The living room was a little smaller than the pictures and just has a small seat and the couch. If our whole family was there we wouldn’t all fit in the couch. Overall we loved our stay here and even when it was windy out the deck is super protected and calm. The heated floor in the bathroom was nice as well. The bedding was nice. It’s actually a 10 min drive to gig harbor but we liked being away from the hustle of the harbor to be honest.

We had such a lovely stay here over the Easter weekend – it was everything we hoped for and more! The house is clean, beautifully kept, and the views? Absolutely breathtaking. It’s one of those rare places that feels even better in person than in the pictures. It had everything we could possibly need – and then some. The hosts were simply wonderful – super friendly, accommodating, and just really easy to talk to. They made the whole experience feel warm and personal, not distant or transactional in any way. They even let us check in early and check out late, which made a huge difference for us with kids. Our days were filled with beach walks, seafood harvesting adventures, backyard chill time, and gorgeous sunsets. It felt like a perfect little reset from our busy lives. We were also celebrating our daughter’s 4th birthday during the stay, and she had an absolute blast. Can’t wait to come back. Thank you Dale & Carol.

Paradise! We truly enjoyed our stay at Shikha's place. Great views, comfortable lounging inside and out, truly a lovely place to visit! I hope to be back again some day.

A gorgeous spot on the lake - especially loved the fireplaces, hot tub, and dock w/ a view of Mount Rainier!

Amazing experience staying at Morgan’s place. Beautiful home, all the necessities available & extra including Netflix and games for a rainy day. Spent the weekend kayaking, jumping in the lake and enjoying the views from the hot tub. Truly a wonderful experience at a wonderful cabin. Thank you!

Superhost rankings are well earned (and I've found) well deserved. Shelly is a Superhost for a reason. The Lake House in the Woods is everything that you'd expect from a premium listing. Comfortable, quiet, well appointed, and yes, the star of the show is most definitely the lake view showcased by majestic Mt. Ranier on the horizon. During our stay, each night ended with a dip in the hot tub alongside cocktails. If the ultimate endorsement is time spent at an Airbnb - we asked Shelly to extend our stay - twice. We'll be back!

Beautiful and well-maintained property. Great, attentive and thoughtful hosts. Had the best lake life for the weekend!

I booked Margo‘s place for my son and his wife for their honeymoon. They wanted a quiet, beautiful place near the water in the Pacific Northwest. This place was perfect.

We celebrated a birthday here with 5 adults and a newborn, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The home is beautifully decorated with such kindness and thought—it felt incredibly cozy and welcoming from the moment we arrived. We spent our days kayaking on the water, spotting seals, birds, and even a curious raccoon who came to visit the porch during dinner! It was such a special feeling to be so close to nature, yet so comfortable at the same time. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed to cook delicious dinners together, and we really appreciated all the thoughtful touches throughout the house. My guests kept commenting on how much love clearly went into this home. And the deck… absolutely breathtaking. I couldn’t have wished for a better birthday. Truly a magical and memorable stay—we can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful place and amazing view. Enjoyed being right on the water - rooms, decks, fire pit(s), and hot tub were amazing. Really enjoyed watching the sea otters in the Sound. Well cared for place.

Jacob's place is really special! The view and outdoor seating area would make this spot worth it, but the house is also really well taken care of, cozy, and enjoyable to spend time in. We loved our time here and felt it was a great home base for exploring the area or relaxing on the water.

Though previous guest lost 2 canoe, the host informed me the situation. The place let us forget the pity and we really had great time.

We had a wonderful and peaceful vacation weekend in Allyn! Fang’s home was easy to get to and settle into. We loved watching the water and tides, and it was easy to walk to restaurant, coffee shops and more. We spent most of our days on day trips in the region (Staircase Ridge & Hama Hama Oysters, and the Tacoma Zoo). This was the perfect place to recharge. We also loved the kayaks and hot tub, and generally cozy space. Fang was proactive and easy to communicate with throughout our stay as well.

We had a wonderful stay at this adorable little cabin on the water in Olympia, Washington. The home is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully designed—cozy, charming, and just the right amount of space for a relaxing getaway. All the amenities were provided, making it incredibly easy to settle in and feel at home. From the well-equipped kitchen to the comfortable bedding, everything was just perfect. The location right on the water is stunning—peaceful, scenic, and a great place to unwind. I was also lucky to enjoy some truly beautiful weather during my stay, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a peaceful retreat with all the comforts of home. Would definitely stay again!

My wife and I spent a week at Pinecone Cottage and had the most amazing time. The lake is serene and picturesque and the cabin itself was fantastic. We ended up staying in most days instead of going into town, and loved every single second relaxing in the house. I would absolutely come back the moment I am able as this is a fantastic location for a truly relaxing and peaceful vacation.

My new wife and I spent a BEAUTIFUL couple of days at this cabin and it was more than we could have imagined. Very peaceful, got to watch the seals and even got lucky enough to spot a pod of Orcas while sitting in the hot tub!

Molly was the most helpful host, the drive way sneaks up on you but if you read all the items before check in youll know exactly what to look for. The photos Molly provided were so helpful and she was extremely understanding and responsive. The space was absolutely PEACEFUL and perfect for families. The amount of items left for guests to use made everything very simple, lifejackets in all sizes including little pups, kitchen items and plenty of towels. If you can't figure something out through pictures or the check in binder, Molly is right there friendly and ready to help.

Beautiful cottage on the water! The surroundings are very peaceful. Nice to watch the tides. the kitchen was well outfitted includingna gas range and teapot! Loved it, thanks, Erin!

The Hideaway was everything we hoped it would be and more. The hosts made sure the house was clean and inviting. They also provided so many unexpected and wonderful details…luxury bath products, a basket of snacks, a dog bed and toy for our pup…and they even setup the firewood in the main fire pit so we didn’t even have to struggle building our own fire! Plus! Don’t even get me started on the sauna…it was EVERYTHING. We have stayed at a good number of Air bnb places over the years and this was far and away our favorite place. It’s beautiful. Book it!
