Rural community feel in South Kitsap
Burley is a neighborhood located north of Henderson Bay between Gig Harbor and Port Orchard, encompassed by rolling green fields and pine trees. “I moved there to have that country feel and still be minutes from great schools and shopping,” says Jennifer Harder, a local Realtor with Windermere Professional Partners, with over 8 years of experience. “You get more property, so some people gravitate here, looking for a neighborhood without neighbors close.” In addition to wooded back yards , nearby parks provide the community access to enjoy Kitsap County’s natural surrounding playground.

Lake activities, 360 Park trails and puppy playtime
Horseshoe Lake County Park’s 39 acres are open from April to the second week in October each year – granted algae blooms have not affected the water. When open, the water features boats, swimmers and tubers passing by as anglers cast a line at Horseshoe Lake’s sandy shores. “Miracle Ranch is located on Horseshoe Lake, and that’s been a draw ever since I was little,” Harder says. “It’s a camp for kids, and a couple of times a year, they do cool activities like a fall festival, where they have horses and hayrides.”
Further southeast, Gateway Park also spans 39 acres and has a splash pad, zip line and playground with climbing rocks and nets. A trailhead at 360 Park sits adjacent to the county park’s playground, where over five miles of hiking and biking trails loop through the forest. In the neighborhood’s northeast section, dogs run freely within fenced play areas at Bandix Dog Park, which has five trails and provides water bowls.
Bandix Dog Park offers 30 acres of trails and open space in Burley WA.

Burley brews, shopping centers and waterfront downtown
Burley Store sells convenience store items off Bethel Burley Road SE. Yoked Farmhouse & Brewery has a rotating seasonal list of beers. “They have a playground, and families like to go there because kids can run around and parents can grab a drink,” Harder says. Since Burley has no designated shopping area, residents must travel south along Washington state Route 16 into Gig Harbor or north into Port Orchard. Five miles south, major retailers, including Albertsons, Costco and Target, are in shopping centers. Local businesses line Port Orchard’s waterfront downtown district, including The Dock Bar & Eatery, which serves American and seafood, and Brick House 714 Bar & Grill, a family owned tavern with live music.
