Hi everyone,

My husband and I will be moving to WA this summer and plan to live in Gig Harbor because it seems to be the best equal distance location between Bremerton Naval Base and Fort Lewis (JBLM). We aren't seeing much in the way of rental homes (single family and not apartments). Does anyone have any resources that you can suggest to help us in our quest? Is there any particular location in GH that would be preferred over another? Any suggestions of any other locations that may provide the equal commute for my husband and I with the amenities of a big town (i.e. shopping, grocery stores, good schools, low traffic, many local eateries)? I really appreciate your help.

I don't have any suggestions on location per se, but when I did my search I found quite a few good options on the vacation rentals by owner website (vrbo.com) in Gig Harbor, etc. where I contacted folks and asked them about longer term rentals. Many were willing and open and would rent @ lower rates during off-peak or for longer (year-long) stay. Best wishes!

also worth mentioning that I put out a want ad on Craig's List and that's ultimately how I found my current year-long rental, which was also advertised on vrbo.com

Tashayar, hope you received the personal message I sent you when you were looking for a rental. I'm not sure I sent it correctly. Anyway, glad you found a place.
