Guest Review:
"The Bee Keeper s Cottage is simply ADORABLE, located in a beautiful backyard with private access. Has all the amenities one would need; also very comfortable for two people. Not too far to shopping center.

$2300 July/August
$1650 All other months
$35 Cleaning Fee
$250 Refundable Deposit
The Beekeeper s Cottage is a short term/vacation rental. Located beside the main home the beekeeper s cottage has friendly, happy bees to right of driveway that provide fresh honey. We have 2 sweet white small ducks that enjoy the back-yard pond/water-fall area. We also have a 12-year old black manx kitty names Gideon, and a small indoor dog named Daisy plus a sweet bunny named Newman.
In summer we have a beautiful garden and a wonderful back-yard and relaxing hammock.
The cottage is decorated in a beekeepers style, with an antique white iron bed with a new mattress. A small kitchenette and a bathroom with a shower.
This property is also ideal for traveling professionals on an out of state project, locals needing a residence while their home is under construction, traveling nurses, graduate college students, people moving into the state and looking for a place to stay while they house shop.
* Private entrance, cottage to side of main home on property
* Cottage opens to beautifully kept garden
* 1 bedroom/1 bath. 175 square feet
* Hot tub-Reserve with owner
* Kitchenette: mini fridge, microwave, coffee pot, barbecue upon request
* Wi-Fi available
* Home is part of the 2018 Garden Tour!
* W/D can be arranged as well as full size fridge for those on an extended stay
* Safe neighborhood in Gig Harbor, minutes to Tacoma
This beekeeper s cottage is an easy drive to Tacoma, Bremerton, Seattle, Bellevue, Mt. Rainier and the rainforests of the Olympic Mountain range.
But first make sure you partake in everything Gig Harbor and nearby areas have to offer. After you've strolled through the quaint downtown and shopped the boutiques and antique stores take your pick from any of the great restaurants and cafes. Seafood is always on the menu.
From the ever popular Tides Tavern for casual waterfront dining to Anthony s where the views are as fabulous as the food. You won t be disappointed by the wide variety of culinary choices.
Gig Harbor is surrounded by water so you can take your pick of activities. Go whale watching with Destiny Tours, check out the History Museum to learn about Gig Harbor s nautical past, pack a picnic and head to one of the many great state parks for a day of sun and sand.
Paddle boarding, kayaking, boating, shopping, restaurants and coffee shops abound within blocks.
Double check the address we are on 64th Ave but Google maps sometimes send people to 86th for some unknown reason.

As soon as I started to drive down their road, I became relaxed. Upon arriving, Nina greeted me, introducing herself and showing me amenities of the property. The Beehive Cottage is adorable. Professionally decorated and with all the extras of a five star room. Like cooking appliances, dishware, bottle of wine, fresh honey, toilet paper with handfolded flowers decorating every roll. Plus a week of delicious snacks. The yard had two quiet and clean ducks. Best of all was Nina and River's, her dog, mien of friendliness which greeted me every time I saw them. I travel alot, and the Beehive Cottage is the best place I have stayed at.

Cozy, private cottage with easy commute to nearby holiday family gatherings.
Mostly stayed here to rest, explore Gig Harbor, and use as a convenient launch pad for commuting to family holiday events. Perfect for all of this, and the cottage also provided a cozy space with welcoming holiday decorations. Loved strolling along the waterfront area with a gorgeous decorated tree, reading local historical signs posted here and there, plus eating delicious “from scratch” meals at quaint local diners along the historic pathways.

Nina has thought of every little detail possible to make the Beekeeper’s Cottage a perfect place to stay! We enjoyed our 2 nights so much that we have already confirmed our stay for next Thanksgiving as well. Super clean, inviting, cute Honey Bee decor, and very welcoming. We felt right at home and slept like babies. Although it is small, the space has everything you could need! The hot tub, the furry and feathered friends solidified our decision to come back. Thank you so much.

What a delightful gem!
I was in town to see family and saw this property. The pictures do not do justice. Its is beautiful in a quiet neighborhood. I loved it. The hosts were so kind. I thoroughly loved it and hope to come back again next year.

My stay at the Beekeeper’s Cottage was entirely delightful. Nina is a wonderful host and a lovely human being. She and her husband were so welcoming and thoughtful. The cottage was perfect: clean and comfortable and very pretty. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and was sorry to have to leave!

Tranquil escape
We were looking for a place to decompress after some hectic work weeks and this cottage was perfect. It's a little off-the-beaten track in a residential area about 12-15 minutes drive from Gig Harbor but the second you walk through the back gate you feel the stress drain from your shoulders. The grounds are kept immaculately and we loved sitting on the porch of the cottage with a glass of wine taking in the surroundings. The cottage is tiny but adorable and kept spotlessly clean. If you're looking for a place to clear your head and get out of the rat-race for a while this cottage is for you.
