Fall asleep lulled by the sounds of the sea. Four of our rooms have an amazing ocean view. Watch as cruise ships, cargo tankers, wooden sailboats, and military ships cruise by. Look for Orcas and sea lions. Binoculars are provided!

Would you like to fall asleep lulled by the sound of the waves? The Commander's Beach House is located right on a sandy beach near the Point Hudson Marina and within three blocks of the shops and restaurants in downtown Port Townsend. Hike our beach to Fort Worden and explore the Marine Science Center or visit the Point Wilson Lighthouse. A short stroll will bring you to the beautiful rose and seasonal gardens of Chetzemoka Park or the marina, filled with classic wooden boats. If you prefer, explore the tidepools on our beach at low tide, hunt for agates and wishing rocks or launch your kayak and paddle in to town. The Commander's Beach House is a Cape Cod style home built in 1934. Until 1955 it housed several commanding officers and their families that were stationed at the nearby medical facility. The Commander's Beach House has been an operational bed and breakfast for seven years and provides a relaxing escape for those who truly want to experience a home on the beach.

Terrific days spent at the Commanders: great room with fine bed and linens, super-friendly gracious & generous innkeepers, easy to walk to all stores and restaurants, wonderful gardens, grounds, and beach walks ... definitely want to go back and enjoy the [only (?)] hottub in Port Townsend b&b's.
