About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

PORTHOLE: Peaceful with a private, locked, covered patio to relax/ store bikes.

Sorry about this, but the "SMALL PRINT" needs to come first"

PLEASE NOTE: There are NO provisions for cooking. Keurig, hot water pot, microwave - that's all. Occupants are limited to two total. Undeclared additional guests are charged at $100 per per guest per night including children of any age or any type of animal - charged through VRBO as an "additional guest", due immediately.

There is one security camera focused on the interior portion of the outside entrance door in order to ensure security integrity of the apartment.

Use of the general property is limited to the Porthole's dedicated outside patio and does not include the rest of the grounds. The Park in front of our house offers a convenient place to smoke if needed. (Smoking is not allowed in the apartment or the attached patio area. The property is not 420 friendly). This is a basement apartment. The center floor is occupied by the owners and their Bordoodle Pup. They endeavor to be quiet when the Porthole is in use.... However, you will, unavoidably, hear footsteps and limited sound and and occasionally barking from "Winnie". (If this is a concern for you, you should not rent this apartment.)

There is a construction project in the neighborhood extending through Spring of 2026. During this time, parking will occasionally be more of a challenge.

NOW FOR THE GOOD STUFF
the apartment is the best three- room "motel suite" in the county - (minus the motel..... we checked). You will love the privacy with the outside covered patio. It's perfect for storing your bicycles. PORTHOLE is great hideaway for a good nights sleep in the King sized bed. Explore the wonders of Port Angeles and the Olympic National Park. The apartment is a short walk to downtown, the Olympic Discovery Trail, two markets, a Starbucks, the Coho Ferry and the Field Performing Arts Center. Your hosts, Amy and Brent, are eager to make sure your stay is the very best. COME AND SEE.

For larger groups (up to 10) check out our other two units on our property; OAK ALLEY - vrbo.com/3625064, and Chez ZigZag - vrbo.com/375934. Both are listed through VRBO and can be reserved separately, Groups reserving all three have access to the rest of the property (not including your hosts living area)

Nice clean small basement apartment, very convenient to walk downtown Port Angeles. Two grocery stores within 5 min walk. Only real downsides are occasionally hearing the host walking above, and the many homeless in the town. Good restaurants nearby but also nothing opens before 8 am…

My Mom and I had a great stay here! The space is so cozy/private, bed was comfortable, and the outdoor patio was lovely to hang out on and drink coffee on sunny mornings and grill our dinner at night. The hosts were responsive, kind and left lots of good recommendations for the area in a binder. There’s a public park area in front of the house that has great views of Port Angeles, and a zig zag path just steps away that leads to the main downtown area. We will definitely be back soon!

Clean and updated. Keurig coffee maker. Comfortable bedroom with box fan for white noise. Loveseat and chair for watching TV. Everything you need to enjoy your stay. Private outside area to sit and sip your coffee or libations. Fyi, Shower had powerful water pressure which felt like a spa. Highly recommend this centally located VRBO for a good place to begin your adventures.

Very comfortable unit that had everything we needed. The location was perfect for us. Less than 2 miles to Olympic National Park visitor center and within walking distance of downtown. It was great to be set up high away from the traffic with spectacular views of the harbor and the mountains when you stepped outside. We enjoyed the zigzag walk down to town, but you can always easily drive if you can't manage the climb.The unit has a cute outdoor area that was completely private and functions as another room when the weather is good. The king size bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. The appliances and small frig were perfect for our breakfast and lunch food. Nice restaurants within walking distance. We even caught a free concert at the pier and had delicious ice cream at Welly's that the blend with fresh fruit.

Clean and comfortable little apartment

The Porthole had everything I needed for. 4 night stay - a comfortable clean bed, lovely little bathroom, and a little kitchenette for morning coffee. Location was ideal (just walk down the zigzag ramp for access to downtown), and parking and entry/exit was easy and private. I was even able to work on my laptop outside on the deck in complete privacy with my coffee in the mornings!Lovely stay! Would do it again!
