About this property

Summary
Our Bainbridge Island home is a warm and welcoming destination, located on two acres of low bank waterfront, a peaceful, fun site for a family retreat. We are15 minutes from downtown Winslow and the Seattle ferry, 30 minutes from the Kingston/Edmunds ferry. You and your family can enjoy boating and swimming in the Bay, a sandbox, swings and playhouse for the kids. fresh eggs to gather daily from our beautiful and generous :) hens, as well as blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, huckleberries, and apples, pears, peaches and Asian pears when in season. In season, you can dig for little neck or Manila clams off the dock. We have woods for exploring, a campfire for roasting hot-dogs and s'mores. Overlooking Fletcher Bay is our deck with both a Traeger pellet BBQ and charcoal BBQ for your use, along with a picnic table and fun hammock close by. Inside find a comfortable family room, fully equipped kitchen and extra large dining room table, all with views of the Bay.

The space
Our kitchen is fully equipped for preparing family style dinners or simple snacks. Guests are welcome to use any condiments and spices in the well stocked cupboards and drawers. Pantry items are available as well. Coffee set up and fixings will be provided for your first morning. Comfortable family room connects to the dining area. the large, hand made table accommodates 8-10 diners easily.
Two bedrooms have queen beds, the third room is a charming children's room, with three twin beds. Both upstairs bedrooms have lofts big enough for added sleeping space, or just a place to play. Brand new mattresses on all the beds.
We have a small, black dog, Humong. During the warm summer months, he can often be found laying on the sidewalk soaking up the sun. He is very gentle and doesn't bite, but when not basking, he will be with the owners. Young children can play on the swings, sand box, tree house. Everyone might enjoy exploring in the woods, or using the rope swing.

The owners live in adjacent but separate quarters. We will be available to assist or answer questions, but otherwise will not be involved.

We want to go back!

Our family of four with two little ones absolutely loved our stay! Firstly, the house has everything you need and then some. If you are traveling with kids, trust me when I say they’ll be entertained both inside and outside the house. The side is good. Lots of tv options (Netflix , prime etc) The outside is stunning and the tide river provides hours of excitement for the kids. It’s an east drive to local towns, and the grand forest. It’s a fast ferry into Seattle. But the piece de resistence are the hosts. Mary and Bill think of every detail and go out of their way to go above and beyond. The truly are wonderful people. We look forward to going back and hopefully making it a annual visit.

Beautiful Bainbridge Island

Once I communicated the reason for our trip, what a special surprise to realize that our host had family ties! This resulted in an extra special time for us! The home was perfectly located for our stay, and it was exceptionally adequate for our accommodation needs. Mary and Bill were also exceptional in supporting us during this time—our most gracious and helpful hosts.

Peaceful family retreat

A much loved, very homely family home where you can just kick off your shoes and relax and enjoy the beauty of nature and the views of the creek. Mary and Bill were great hosts and made us feel so welcome. They live in a separate part of the house and, although very discreet, they are conveniently available to assist with any queries as the need may arise. Bainbridge is a gorgeous island but you do need a car to get around.

Great location, very nice owners.

This home has a trail down to the water with a dock and boats that we all enjoyed. Mary and Bill are great hosts who live in a separate part of the house, but are aware of their guests privacy. Our grandkids loved all the toys and activities made available.

The Greatest VRBO

Our stay at Mary & Bill's was the nicest of any VRBO's we've rented. The house was wonderful. Clean, spacious, well stocked and totally comfortable. Our hosts were fantastic. They supplied us with fresh eggs from their own chickens, baked us pastries and bread, lent my son in law a belt (he forgot his). Everything about our stay was way beyond any expectations we could have had. Hope to visit again. This experience was a stand out.

About the host

Hosted by Mary

My husband designed and built this home for our family of 8 children.
It was finished and we moved in on January 1, 1988. . Our kids have now all flown the coop, and rather than have this wonderful home fall into a deep sleep , we realized we could keep the party going by offering it as a rental through VRBO, and invite other families to share the magic and joy our family has enjoyed through these last 30 years..
