About this property

Modern Cottage Compound With Decks And Outdoor Fire Pit

3 Structures surrounded by decks and landscaping

Designed around families and flexibility, the modern structures are ideal for sharing time with the kids in the yard or enjoying food with friends around the large table on the deck.

It is located next to an farm in the geographical center of Port Townsend. (Up at the top of the hill from the golf course). There is a great green belt to the north that has lots of trails. A 5 min drive and you are either in Victorian downtown Port Townsend or at the nearby Worden St Park which has great beaches and an old light house. You can read about lots of the great restaurants there and the French bakery (Pane D'Amore).

Perfect quiet stay in Port Townsend
The cottage compound was a perfect place for me to stay while exploring Port Townsend. I felt comfortable and safe, and surrounded by nature’s beauty.

Don't stay here, you won't want to leave!
Great property in a great location! Well stocked with everything you might need. Bonus - momma deer and two babies spent almost our whole vacation frolicking or napping on and around the property. We will be back.

Family vacation.
Great place for a large family to stay. Three on site buildings, so everyone can have a place of their own. Landscaping provides lots of privacy.

Very pleasant!
The property is just as described. Proximity to trails was wonderful! The outdoor space was amazing, like having another room. Everything was quite private. We stayed with our two 12 year old sons and there was plenty of space.

A delightful home away from home stay
This VRBO compound has really nicely arranged primary and guest quarters – we utilized both throughout our entire stay and it would work well as a connected basecamp that also allows several groups their own privacy. It’s located in a neighborhood community with shared central green space for the 7-8 small houses in the circle; a small farm is across the street. We found the design and layout to be extremely thoughtful in maximizing the relatively small lot; everything in both the house and garden feels like they fit the lot like a glove. The VRBO has really good visual privacy, but noise travels throughout the neighborhood community, and conversations in backyards carry easily across the central green space. The guest quarters, in particular, are located in very close proximity (perhaps only 10-20 feet) from a neighbor; this was largely a non-issue for us and likely would be a non-issue for many, but if noise privacy is highly important, or if you want to have loud parties, please keep the close proximity in mind. The immediate 7-8 house community backs up to a dead-end street with hiking trail access almost immediately behind the property – these trails connect all through the PT area, and are such a nice resource for runs and walks. The house is also a fantastic base camp for exploring local, state, and national parks (5-minute drive to Fort Worden; hiking trail in back yard leads to ocean bluff ~20 minute walk). In terms of provisions, the primary quarters have a king bedroom with desk workspace, bathroom, laundry, full kitchen and living space; the guest quarters have a queen bedroom with mini fridge/microwave, bathroom, and bunkbeds tucked in near the entryway. The full kitchen includes apartment-sized refrigerator and dishwasher, stove/oven, and complement of pots, pans, utensils, and dishes. We didn’t meet Ryan in person but he was very communicative via text and made us feel at home throughout the stay.

About the host

Hosted by Ryan Smith

Host profile image
My wife and I started a company called Modern-Shed. We are based in Seattle and use this location as a way to show the possibilities of living efficiently and with a smaller square footage. This project was a way to build a large prototype of the prefab structures we do and to show how great the spaces can feel.

Why they chose this property

I was born in Washington State and my family's history dates back a long time here, with my great grandfather who was the City Clerk in Port Townsend for 10 years. The town is a great place to visit and being so close to everything made the site a very attractive location to showcase a Modern-Shed project.

What makes this property unique

The decks and yard are great. With a sunken fire pit to roast hot-dogs on, or a BBQ to enjoy a great dinner on the outdoor dinning table, the outdoors are almost as important as the indoors. Being at the dead end of the street, the kids can run freely through the yard and you feel very safe that everyone can enjoy a good time.
