Forest Beach Cottage with deck near Horsehead Bay

Previous wood shop turned into a beautifully remodeled coastal cottage in 2013. Puget Sound and Olympic Mountain view’s out your kitchen windows. Sit on the front porch and BBQ. Sharpen your pickleball and basketball skills on the sport court. Walk/run the Forest Beach or Morelands loops. Horsehead Bay boat launch is 3/4 mi around the bay. Take your SUP or Kayak for a day trip to Dead man’s Island (Cutt’s Island) 3mi boat from the bay.
Too rainy for outside exercise, Peloton is available for you (bring your own shoes and peloton app subscription). Playground available for the kiddos.

Kopachuck State Park is a 4.5 mi drive away with beach access to the public. Historic Downtown Gig Harbor is a 15 minute drive. Lovely and walkable downtown with many shops and restaurants/tap rooms. Visit Tides Tavern, Seven Seas brewery, Heritage Distillery, Morso, Millville or Suzanne’s bakery downtown.
