Women away
Huge home on a large property. The size was perfect for six women who all want their own room. It has everything you need for your stay. If it was a little closer to town the location would have been perfect but that’s hard to get with lots of bedrooms. The house was clean except the master bath could use a deep cleaning of the shower. Overall it was a wonderful home and we really enjoyed our stay.

Large house worked for multi-generation family vacation
The "Del Mar Chateau" consisted of many very large rooms with lots of futons and couches in each room. Tons of games are in most rooms, including parts of many video game consoles (didn't get a chance to try them out), and even a box of Duplos and other kid toys, which the littles loved. The space fit our 3-generation family well. We had a broken shower head, and someone came to fix it the next day. The AC worked great on the 1st and 2nd floors in the hot summer; the 3rd story was really hot, (even with the AC running and the fan they brought for us), but if you stay in the fall or spring, you should be okay. The outdoor space was great, with the gazebo (fan didn’t work), porch, play structure, and field. We weren't able to use the hot-tub, because the breaker kept tripping so it wasn't hot whenever we wanted to use it and water smelled bad. The kitchen was stocked with tons of stuff (although disorganized, a lot of expired pantry items, and non-stick pans were in rough shape). Our family really enjoyed the outdoor spaces and having space for all our family members.

Great stay in Gig Harbor
Stayed here for the 4th of July weekend with some friends and it was an awesome stay. Plenty of space for everyone, great outdoor spaces for some grilling and lawn games, and close enough to town to go in for lunch/dinner and hang out by the water. Would absolutely stay here again!

Private retreat in the forest
Absolutely beautiful place! This is a very private location in the forest. The yard was huge and we had a blast playing outdoor games. The jacuzzi was perfect for relaxing in the evening. Every room in this home is huge and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed. We would definitely recommend this place and would love to come back!

Beautiful large house in wooded area
Large house, well furnished and maintained. 11 of us enjoyed our stay for a family reunion. One thing to be aware of: only 1 bathroom on 2nd floor, shared by 4 bedrooms; though there is an extra bathroom on main floor. Worked fine for us, but something to be aware of. Highly recommend! Thank you so much!

We stayed in this lovely property for a woman's retreat. This was perfect house and location for us. The rooms are spacious and well equipped. We loved the fireplaces and the fire pit, the super well appointed and equipped kitchen and the very comfortable beds and common areas. The house was warm even on cold evenings.
