Fishing boats and pleasure craft fill a sheltered cove off Puget Sound here, with Mount Rainier looming beyond. The Best Western Wesley Inn & Suites makes a pet-friendly base for it in Gig Harbor, Washington, on the Puget Sound shore.
Docks, galleries and seafood restaurants ring the harbor a short drive off, the Narrows Bridge and the museums and parks of Tacoma sit just across the water, and the trails, beaches and state parks of the sound spread close by.
A free breakfast and a warm welcome round out the stay, with dining and the highway close by. The waterfront downtown lines a working harbor of fishing boats and yachts, the maritime museum and the summer boat festivals draw crowds, and kayak launches and shoreline parks edge the coves. Ferries cross to the islands of the sound nearby, and orca-watching boats run from the ports. Olympic National Park and its rainforests lie a ferry ride west. Mount Rainier's glaciers and meadows rise a couple of hours southeast.
