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.

Cozy, comfortable home in a perfect location
Wow - what a great stay for our annual vacation with our friends. We (4 in total) came to Port Townsend for the Kinetic Sculpture Race and found this gem right in the heart of the historic district. We are usually "in the woods" and "off the beaten track" vacationers so staying in town isn't our typical digs. No worries though. This spot is unique; a second-floor rental, tucked into a lush hill that offers privacy and an outdoor deck surrounded by green. And even though we were in town during a festival, the rental was quiet, making it a great place to unwind. The house offered everything we needed; comfortable beds, a well-appointed kitchen for cooking, and cozy spaces for visiting. A bonus was the separate office where I took a Zoom call without bothering others. The location is great. Everything we needed was within easy walking distance; the Wine Seller, Aldrich's Market, and more restaurants and bars than we could visit in one weekend. We especially enjoyed the Saturday Farmer's Market and strolling around town to look at all the Victorian Architecture. Initially, we were a bit concerned about the stairs to get to the unit, as one in our party was 6 weeks out from hip replacement, but the stairs are very sturdy with good handrails, so they presented no problem. On-street parking in front of the unit was also easy to obtain. We had a great time and this unit ranks as one of our favorites. Hoping to return in the future!

Fantastic
The penthouse suite was everything my friends and I had hoped it would be. The location was perfect, came out of the building and a block away from the main street. Also close to the Saturday Farmers Market. It was clean and had everything we needed. Dave, our host, was a great communicator and helpful in recommending places to eat. I look forward to the next time I can visit PT and stay there. Highly recommended it.

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

Mid Century Gem
The Suite at the Fountain is our favorite place to stay in Port Townsend, a hidden mid century gem in the heart of downtown. The fireplace is lovely on a cool night and the openness of the living room and kitchen to the deck gives the feel of being in a treehouse in the forest. Don’t be surprised to find deer nestled in the bushes off the deck. The Suite is just steps from the wonderful Starlight Theatre and delicious restaurants. Take the strenuous flight of stairs on the other side of the property to the uptown Farmers Market and gorgeous views of the Sound. Dave and Sheila are wonderful hosts and we look forward to many more trips to this delightful Suite.

Fun Stay in Port Townsend
Loved, loved, loved the location. So close to everything. We just parked the car and walked everywhere. This is a lovely older apartment that is well maintained. The kitchen was well stocked with pretty much every utensil/dish you could need. The listing does say there is a gas grill...but there wasn't. That was really okay with us. It was a no cooking weekend. There are so many great places to eat out in PT.

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!

Exceptional Port Townsend Accomodations
We are from the midwest and were touring the PNW with Port Townsend one of our stops. The Suite at the Fountains was perfect for our three days here, within short walking distance to the marina for whale watching tour and not too far from Olympic National Park. Shops and restaurants were steps away. The suite itself was very private, cozy, and comfortable for two couples. We plan on coming back to see more of the Olympic Peninsula and will book again!
