• Set of premium Pickleball paddles, a few Pickleballs, a Pickleball sling bag, and a guide for the local Pickleball courts (including on Bainbridge Island - the birthplace of Pickleball) so that you can play Pickleball during your stay without needing to bring your own gear;
• Outdoor hot tub; and
• Two recreational sit-in kayaks, two paddles, and life vests for all sizes.

The Garden Patio and Spa Patio are for registered guests of the Chico Bay Inn to use and feature a gas grill, outdoor table and chairs, and a hot tub.

At the bottom of the beach stairs is a bulkhead separated into two different lounge areas. Each bulkhead lounge area features a fire pit and chairs, and is perfect for enjoying a campfire right next to the beach. There is a third lounge area with chairs on the ridge overlooking the bulkhead and beach that is is perfect for taking in the sweeping views.

We offer two recreational sit-in kayaks, two paddles, and life vests for all sizes available for your use during your stay at no extra cost. We recommend only launching during medium to high tides (see Bremerton, WA tide charts to plan your excursions).

Many beaches in the Pacific Northwest are devoid of sand and full of barnacle covered rocks. Ours is no exception… for the first 20 feet. Then, at low tide after the first 20 feet, the beach is quite muddy. Bring your mud boots for full exploration of local shellfish habitats and long quiet walks during low tides. A walk along the beach at low tide, while being quite muddy, can be a magical experience as you see tiny crabs scurrying to hide behind oysters and clams squirting water out of the mud like the Bellagio fountains.
