About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire house boat to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Spacious 46' Yacht: Luxury, kayaks, walk to town

Floating cozy and charming "Blue Goose" is located in the heart of Gig Harbor where all of the historic sites and restaurants are within a short walking distance. Rare boat at a rare historic net shed and dock. Use the provided kayaks to paddle around lovely Gig Harbor--or paddle to the Tides Tavern or Anthony's seafood for lunch! Complete with two en suite staterooms, a cozy living room, and a view of sunsets and Mount Rainier! Sit on the upper deck for coffee/cocktails, bbq, watch activity.
The space
The beds are tight! They fit two folks but it’s tight. So plan to cuddle!
Guest access
The net shed, other docks and boats are not included with this rental.
Other things to note
Occasionally there will be events/celebrations in the net shed. Please feel free to walk through to access your boat. Know that we will comply with quiet hours at 10pm too. For safety, the propane oven has been disabled.

Additionally, the harbor pump out service services the septic tank on the boat weekly - it will not interfere with your stay as they only access the outside of the boat.

Perfect quirky stay

We loved sitting on the deck watching the activity in the harbor. Location was perfect for walking to shops and restaurants. As you’d expect, a boat stay has its quirks — all part of the charm.

Blue Goose stay

Perfect Gig Harbor experience.

The Blue Goose is right next door to the most happening spot in Gig Harbor, The Tides Tavern. Designated parking was a huge advantage. The boat itself is beautiful and nicely appointed and the host was very responsive to our emails.

WOW

This place was incredible! The right size for two of us (could come with a kid but that's probably it for people) and in the best location. VERY comfortable beds and it's nice to have 1.5 bathrooms. Overall...it was a 10! We will definitely be back.

Wonderful Getaway

We had an amazing time on the beautiful Blue Goose. So many lovely details both in how the boat is designed and in how the property owners set it up for us. We were welcomed by calm music, lighting, wine, snacks, and everything was just so. Thanks for providing such a special place. Truly a dream boat.

Excellent and Comfortable

Our stay was wonderful. The boat is located in a great downtown location walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. The boat itself was comfortable and clean. There are 2 comfortable bedrooms each with a bathroom. The common spaces were nice, clean and we had everything we needed. Communication with Michelle was clear. Overall it was a wonderful and quiet stay.

OVERNIGHT STAY FOR US OLD FOLKS

A really pleasant experience. Had a little trouble locating the address as we couldn't locate the address number. All of us are in our 80's so the tight interior tested our nimbleness. The rental was accurately represented.
