A Milwaukee-Area Bed and Breakfast, The Port Washington Inn

CELEBRATION SPECIALS

Celebrating 14 years in business and keeping Port Washington Inn simply affordable………..

We’ve reduced our room rates AND are offering incentives for you to stay a little longer…..

In January of 2010 we posted specials relative to the seasons of the year and that made sense at the time.

But the reality is that keeping things simple makes it easier for everyone (us included)!

And who can’t use some EASY in their lives right now?

Here’s the deal:

14% discount on a two night stay

24% discount on a three night stay (or more)***

***PGA dates are the exception with a 10% discount

It’s warm and sunny and definitely time for gardeners to visit their favorite gardening haunts for inspiration!  We’ve been devotees of Monches Farm for many years and this weekend (May 22 & 23) is their Spring Open House which promises to inspire you not only with plants but all sorts of yard art offered by local artisans.  Check out the details on their website at www.monchesfarm.com

A recently discovered gardener’s delight is Paradise Gardens Nursery near West Bend.   They aren’t new, we just found them!  Rita ventured there and returned with enough culinary herbs to make for endless tasty fare this summer!  And she will go back again and again to take advantage of their healthy well cared for plants and to enjoy seeing mature plantings in a beautiful setting.  Landscape design is another part of their business and you will recognize their design talents the moment you drive in.  They’ve created an idyllic environment.

All things wine make your getaway more fun especially when transportation is not required!

Stay at the Port Washington Inn (just 3 blocks from Vines to Cellar) and you’ll be happy all around

as you enjoy a stay in a historic setting comforted by all the amenities and enhanced with great food

prepared for you from scratch in our beloved kitchen.   Order one of our Gourmet Picnics to enjoy

with your wine tasting!

Did your spring blooms disappear all too quickly this year?   In Port Washington  along Lake Michigan’s shore, blooms are a bit later to appear and tend to last longer      which means you can come here to enjoy them again………like turning back the clock and the calendar!  Savor the fragrance and the beauty just a little bit longer as you walk around the grounds of Port Washington Inn on Sweetcake Hill or sit on the park bench under the maple tree.

Reserve your accommodations for the Pirate Festival at the Port Washington Inn just four blocks from the festival site and enjoy 25% discount on a two night stay that includes a full breakfast and perfect viewing of the fireworks display!

The Port Washington Inn is four blocks from the marina and Port Washington’s harbor along Lake Michigan.
From our location atop Sweetcake Hill, you can enjoy views of the Art Deco lighthouse in the harbor and you can walk to restaurants and shops. You’ll love sitting outside and enjoying the birdsong and gardens in our residential neighborhood.

A Tall ship cruises Port Washington's harbor

Tall ships visit Port Washington during the Pirate Festival (June 4-6 2010) and the Maritime Festival (August 20-22 2010).   The Port Washington marina is a perfect staging area for these popular festivals. Attend one or both of these festivals and make a weekend of it with a stay at the Port Washington Inn on Sweetcake Hill.  The above picture was taken from the Top of the World Suite of the inn and depicts a zoomed in view of the art deco lighthouse in the harbor as one of the tall ships take passengers on a cruise and a fishing charter takes off in search of big fish!

As seen from the Port Washington Inn, the restored clock tower of the original Ozaukee County Courthouse is a landmark framing our views of Lake Michigan.  Lighted at night, this landmark is an exquisite example of the impact of architecture on our daily lives.

Ozaukee Interurban Trail from Port Washington Inn

Just a few blocks from our Inn, you can hop on the newly upgraded Ozaukee Interurban Trail. This stellar paved trial traverses 30 miles of beautiful countryside in and around Port Washington.
The Ozaukee Interurban Trail is ideal from a relaxing stroll, or a more vigorous bike ride. Wildlife sightings abound with deer, squirrels, rabbits, red-winged black birds, and an occasional flock of Canadian Geese.

The south end of trail begins downtown, a block from the marina, and heads north through tree-lined areas and open fields. Once across the newly completed trail bridge across I-43, the trail heads out into open pasture-lands and farms.
Pack a lunch, and relax along the trail for a picnic.
We offer specials and discounts throughout the season to allow you to spend several days enjoying Port Washington and the outdoors.

Breakfast takes on new meaning when you are served a delectable breakfast in a beautiful dining room!

First, though, you will enjoy your early morning cup of rich coffee or your choice of teas or hot chocolate in the privacy of your guestroom. That is certain to get your day off to a good start!

Then, at the time you’ve designated, you come down to the inn’s dining room to indulge……….in whatever you choose from the breakfast buffet. Eat as much as you please or as little as you want. This is your getaway and it’s all about you feeling pampered and well cared for.
