About this property

Downtown Port Townsend - Hillside Penthouse Vacation Rental

A Suite at the Fountain is your own private getaway--a penthouse apartment in the trees--but in the middle of the downtown.

Please visit our website for details, reviews, and local events and attractions.

Located in the heart of Port Townsend’s National Landmark Historic Downtown.
Park your car and say goodbye to it. You are steps away from the award winning Rose Theatre, intimate pubs and clubs, and restaurants that specialize in Northwest cuisine as well as exotic fare from around the world. The most eclectic assortment of shops you can imagine. Gorgeous antiques and local arts and crafts. Historic buildings, parks, beaches and hidden places to discover. The very best of Port Townsend's downtown accommodations.

Quiet, spacious, modern, comfortable—with all of Port Townsend's amenities within walking distance.

Our penthouse apartment looks out at a view of the Haller fountain from one bedroom, the other looks across to the historic Terry Building and Silverwater Cafe. Both bedrooms offer queen size beds and handsome antique furnishings. The bathroom is commodious and features a shower and soaking tub (bubbles provided).

The kitchen is glorious at first sight, and you will find it convenient for preparing the simplest to the most complex meal. Fully appointed, including Fiestaware for six and crystal wine glasses. The living and dining areas provide comfortable modern furniture, fabulous Port Townsend art, an entertainment center and cozy wood fireplace.

Enjoy a large deck nestled against the verdant hillside, outdoor furniture and Weber BBQ in total privacy. You won’t believe you are downtown Port Townsend.

High speed wireless Internet is available throughout the suite and, if you find that you must accomplish some work during your stay, step into the quiet, detached office, complete with computer and library.

Best Getaway

Staying here was terrific. You’re tucked away in a private world then walk down to the center of the Historic District with so much to see and some many great restaurants. We had a great time and love everything about the apartment. 5 STARS!!

Holiday Bliss

Our Thanksgiving holiday was better than we hoped for. The location was perfect, for spontaneous trips walking around town. We love being so close to the waterfront. We could spend time with our family on Thanksgiving and then have space to enjoy time with just my husband, daughter, and I. We especially love having a 2nd bedroom for our 9 year old daughter. The apartment was spacious and well appointed for all our needs.This was our best visit. an forhappy

My favorite place to stay in Port Townsend

I love everything about this place. The location is great, it's clean and comfortable. The kitchen is set up for actually cooking (salad spinner, usable knives, veggie peeler, two kinds of ways to make coffee and everything else you need!) We hope to come back again next year

amazing stay in PT

I couldn't imagine a better spot to stay in Port Townsend - location is perfect yet somehow hidden away. The suite itself is cozy, lots of light and quiet. Steps away from everything you'd want to do in town.

Excellent Location in Downtown Port Townsend

We enjoyed our stay very much as it was extremely convenient to walk to all of the shops downtown. Was fun to be able to look out the windows and see the activity on the street below. Bedrooms are a nice size with comfortable beds and apartment was very clean and well organized. Our hosts were communicative and provided easy to follow check in instructions with some flexibility on the check in/out times. The kitchen is well stocked and has fun colors of Fiestaware for meals. Note that if it's raining, the wood deck can be very slippery and though the description states hot tub, there was not a hot tub there. They do have a bathtub in a spacious bathroom. All in all would recommend for a lovely getaway! You are right in the heart of downtown and uptown is a quick walk up the fountain stairs, which the apartment overlooks.

A lovely stay as always

My teen daughter and I love to visit Port Townsend as a little getaway every summer. We have been staying at this lovely property for a few years, and it is our go-to place. It's in the perfect spot for walking to shopping and restaurants and always feels like a home away from home. We love it here and it will always be where we try to book first. The hosts are lovely and communicative if needed and I never have any issues. Thanks again for a lovely stay!

About the host

Hosted by Sheila and Dave

Host profile image
We are an active and adventurous couple who love to travel and explore. Part of our enjoyment comes from creating our own “home away from home” wherever we go. We love to take part in the communities that we visit. But, we also enjoy returning to our “hidden refuge” for special moments that reconnect us. So…we like being in the thick of it, but we also like our privacy. If you find, as we have, that this experience is sometimes enhanced by having another couple as travel companions, we provide that opportunity…or bring your children and make yourself at home.
