Newer, dog-friendly home at the forest's edge with patio & WiFi - near downtown

Port Townsend Kala Point

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Beautifully situated at the edge of old-growth woods within earshot of Chimacum Creek, this two-bedroom home just outside Port Townsend is a picturesque home base for your adventures on the Olympic Peninsula.

This tree-lined property is quiet and relaxing, with an abundance of birds and the occasional deer known to frequent the neighboring forest. Yet it's also wonderfully close to the Victorian downtown of Port Townsend, the ferry to Whidbey Island, and state parks in every direction. Olympic National Park is also well within day-tripping distance, just 49 miles west.

Built in 2016, this single-story home offers the polish and ease of new construction with windows that frame the old-growth forest outside. Come home from your daily excursions to recline by the TV in the light-filled living room, prepare snacks and appetizers in the spacious kitchen, or head outside to the covered back patio for a barbecue dinner on the gas grill.

Other special features of this home include a dedicated office with its own TV and sofa, complimentary WiFi, and a private washer/dryer.

Trailside Home South of Port Townsend
This property could easily accommodate a couple couples and a couple of kids, if the kids slept on couches, or an air mattress in the office. The trail next to the property was fun to go on. It takes about 15 minutes to get from the house to downtown Port Townsend. The only thing that was dirty is the shower curtain in the bathroom connected to the bedroom with the king bed had a lot of mold at the bottom of it. The lights in the house are cool not warm temperature. And it was a little annoying that check our time is 10am when it is 11am at most other properties.

Lovely place.
So much nicer than staying in a hotel. Only suggestion is to put a floor lamp in the living room so you don't have the overhead lights on all the time. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Very comfortable
It was perfect for what we needed. Very quiet, all the amenities and the bed was comfortable. We enjoyed the trail walk down the hill to the creek. The only problem at check in was the code didn’t work on the door lock and we had to make a phone call.

Wildlife Experience
Home is situated at the end of a quiet road, situated next to a forested area. We were visited by a doe and her fawn every morning, along with lots of birds, attracted by the multiple feeders on the property. The property is a lot closer to town than it seems. The home is very comfortable and contains all the amenities for that comfort. We will definitely visit again!

Lovely property and location, but not the bargain it appears to be at first
Lovely, spacious, well-appointed (including binoculars and a bird guide!) home in a lovely quiet setting. The property is the last home on a quiet street with one side tucked against a forested area. We enjoyed spending some time on the back porch, listening to birds. There’s local access to Port Townsend Bay at Kala Point where you can walk along the shoreline. It’s only ~15 minutes to drive to the Port Townsend waterfront. An added bonus: San Juan Taqueria is only a 1.5 miles away (we ate there twice). One flaw in an otherwise pleasant stay was that access to the property was very confusing as two different keypad entry codes (plus an additional entry option through the garage) were provided in the check-in instructions. The main code that was sent in the welcome e-mail was an incorrect one! The correct code was 10 digits long and was difficult to get punched in properly. Don’t be misled by what appears to be a bargain nightly price, as you end up paying twice as much for the rental because of the many fees charged (two of which I have never been charged for by any other host). We were even charged a damage fee, which the host said was “nonrefundable, regardless of whether there are no damages at check out”. We’ve never before experienced having to pay for NOT damaging the property!

Very comfortable and clean house! It was relaxing and things were modern and high end. It would be helpful to have instructions on the dishwasher and the bigger television. But we are older people! Loved being next to the forest!

Great location
The house was very clean; however, many of the dishes and silverware pieces were dirty. We had to wash enough dishes for our use while we were there. A very quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed seeing deer in the yard almost everyday. We couldn’t get the front door code to work which wasn’t too much of a problem as we could come and go via the garage. We had to leave the front door unlocked as we could not lock it either.

Adequate
The Google maps gets a little confused but we found it eventually. The house is obviously rented by a company, very little charm and sparse furnishings. You get a lot of automatic emails and texts but when there was a problem with the lock code, it was hard to get a response. The Mexican restaurant down the street is delicious. The house is spacious but sheets are thin, almost threadbare and furniture isn't comfy. Nice path to a creek and nice tree view. I will be avoiding this compnay in the future as the price isn't worth the lack of care and personality. Nothing terrible, just not great. Mediocre.

Good but not good
If you want peace and quiet this is the place for you but if you want a working refrigerator don't stay here. We reached out to Vacasa several times and NO one addressed the issue. Thank goodness for Amazon!! We were able to order a portable refrigerator that got delivered in a day. We will not be using Vacasa again. They don't really care about their customers. Our stay was pretty much ruined. Spending over $1,300.00 you would think if there's a problem someone from Vacasa would reach out to you. Very disappointed!!!

Could use some work
This is in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of wildlife coming through the property. The yard has been neglected with weeds and thistle reclaiming the land. The home is in good condition and surfaces of kitchen and bath appearing clean. Spider webs and dust is found throughout the home. Nothing that a deep spring cleaning couldn't take care of.

Very clean, comfortable house near Port Townsend
We just had a short stay here, unfortunately, as we all enjoyed the house and location and would have gladly stayed longer. The level of cleanliness was spectacular, and the amenities were all there - full line of kitchen gear, comfortable beds, nice sitting areas & outdoor covered deck & propane grill - all of which we used and enjoyed. There is an unofficial trail from the side yard down to the creek that runs into a salt water inlet, which is fun to explore. In addition, it is a short drive to several state parks and to Port Townsend and it's cute shopping district. Our only complaint was that the front door lock seemed not to be working correctly, so we used the garage to enter & exit the house, but that was a minor issue. There is also a back patio door onto the deck for accessing the back yard / grill area. Our dogs were welcome, but there was no pet odor or debris that we could see. The yard is not fenced but is quite large, so that we were able to let our dogs out under supervision. We would happily stay here again, and hope to do so in future.
