Cozy & lots of amenities
The kitchen had everything we needed including spices, cleaning supplies, and plenty of coffee! Comfy bed and soft linens. Great location on the water. We saw many birds and even an otter. Nice, efficient washer & dryer. Would stay again!

Navy
My son is stationed there in the navy and he was able to take leave and stay at the house with us, we had a great stay and would definitely stay again! So nice to sit out on the deck by the water watching the tide come in or go out and the ferries and sea lions and blue herons and so on… only thing that was wrong was the coffee pot was not emptied and washed other than that everything was nice and clean and we were able to check in an hour early which was nice and we were thankful for the owner letting us do so!

Cute Place - Could Be Cleaner
This was a cute place in a great location. There were lots of ants inside and the shower didn’t seem to be deep cleaned. There was hair on the wall and the shelf’s have hair and product build up.

Wonderful stay!
We loved our stay in this house! We enjoyed walking to the Boatshed for lunch and Larry and Kristi’s for donuts for breakfast! We loved relaxing on the deck one lovely afternoon and then one rainy night we logged into our account and binged Deadpool! We’d love to come back!

Perfect!
My husband and I loved the cottage! Bremerton is a charming little town, everything within walking distance including the ferry’s into Seattle(which I highly recommend vs driving) . We even got a visit from a Harbor Seal, lots of birds and Mountain View. House was super clean and well stocked. Would love to come back!

Cute Beach Cottage
Adorable clean, quiet cottage on the water. Harbor seals and river otters did a little "people watching" as we sat on the deck with a glass of wine at sunset. Great location, easy walk to village of Manette restaurants and bakery. Strolled over the bridge to ferries to Seattle and walk-on ferry to Port Orchard farmers' market. We'll definitely be back!

Dead lawn
This old hut, converted into a "cabin", is merely OK as a building. The lawn, right up against the beautiful Puget Sound, is dead and dry, full of bugs and unpleasant. It should be green and cared for, a place to lounge in the sun and enjoy the view. The deck is nice, but too hot on a sunny afternoon... when you want to be in the cool grass. Quite a lot of money for a hot hut on the rocks.

Perfect size for two.
The home was very clean and had just about everything needed for a week's stay. The views from the deck are spectacular and there are plenty of local eating places nearby. We will stay there again.

Beautiful place, cheap flimsy furniture. The paddleboards and kayaks listed don't exist.
The property manager does not promptly address your problem. He knew there were no kayaks or paddleboards but left them on the listing. Very disappointed about that. That is one of the reasons we chose this property.

Bremerton cottage
The location was nice and convenient for what we needed, and our kids really enjoyed the small beach along the back of the property. I contacted the property manager to see if we could check in early because we were already in town, they said fine and we ended up having a delay from our original plans and didn’t actually get to the property much later than anticipated. We had to ask for the access code to the property, nothing was provided. Also, We had trouble logging into the wifi according to the pamphlet thing on the fridge. I texted the property manager about this, he said it was the exact same as on the pamphlet. Still wasn’t working and I showed him this and no response so we called him. He didn’t pick up at first, then when he did was very rude. The wifi provided on the pamphlet was not correct, he ended up claiming it was a typo but the one on the pamphlet was the one he texted to me before we had to call… Very strange. He also complained that we didn’t get there the time we asked for, 1 pm and why were we calling so late. Really unprofessional exchange, for that reason I’m not sure I’d recommend this property to anyone unless they don’t care about hospitality or accessing information that should be correct and readily available anyway. The cottage itself was clean but basic.

Very beautiful view.
It was a lovely view of the water. We loved sitting on the deck at night and watching the boat and ferry go by. Wish we would have remembered paddle boards or something to go out on because the beach wasn’t very nice to go on or swim. But overall we loved it!

Easily and thoroughly entertained
My kids LOVED hunting for little tiny crabs on the rocky beach and I loved that we could sit and watch them from the deck. They did this for hours and likely would have stayed out longer had we let them/had we not had other plans for them. Cute decor, great location. Plenty of linens, what I would expect for dish ware and spices to cook present in kitchen.

The property is amazing. Sitting on the deck having coffee or a cocktail is so relaxing. It’s so quiet and the view is just beautiful. The place was very clean and well decorated. There’s a great fire pit for those chilly evenings Outside. The electric fireplace in the house is very cozy. The furniture and bed were very comfortable.
