About this property

Entire place

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

Heron's Perch Efficiency Studio

Heron's Perch has a spacious bedroom with a large picture window that overlooks a garden. A palatial bathroom features a separate shower and soaking tub, and enclosed commode. A foldout desk, lovely settee, small dining table, flat screen TV make this a nice little home away from home. There's also a fridge, microwave oven and Keurig coffee maker. Dish-ware, linens and other essentials needed for longer-term stays are included.

The space
Robin’s Nest is expressly designed to be casually relaxed and personable. It is infused with sprightly color and eclectically furnished with family heirlooms to blend a touch of nostalgia with contemporary comfort and convenience. The home was built in 2006 and renovated in 2017 to ensure our guests have a completely enjoyable experience.

Guest access
Two guest studios are all located on the second floor. Common areas open to all are the front gardens where guests are invited to relax and enjoy tumultuous flowering blooms. The main floor is my private residence.

Other things to note
Amenities include individual room temperature control, bedside reading lamps, sound buffering shades, black out curtains, USB outlet for additional electronics, emergency flashlight, extra pillows and blankets.
Late-night owls and early birds staying at the Nest should all be able to get the rest they need. Quiet hours are from 9:30 pm to 7:00 am.
We are an eco-friendly business. We renovated the building using bamboo flooring and low VOC paints. Old appliances were replaced with new energy-efficient models. We use compact fluorescent bulbs in most light fixtures. Thermal insulated shades and blackout curtains are on all bedroom windows. We try, with our guests’ assistance, to keep laundry to a minimum and we use biodegradable cleaners. We do not use pesticides in our gardens or anywhere on the property. Our goal is to set a high standard of service, while impacting the earth as little as possible.

Great Getaway!
We had a wonderful stay in Port Townsend at Robin's Nest. The rooms were comfortably appointed and we felt cozy, safe, and well-rested to take in the charms and wonders of this Victorian harbor town. Thanks to Robin and her delightful place for a most refreshing vacation!

Spacious clean unit in safe neighborhood
We were in Port Townsend for an weekend event and chose to stay here. Check-in was smooth. The unit was very large. As a note, its layout was unconventional: two washing sinks, a very small dining area, a bath room (which has its own door of course), a shower space, and a separate, large bathtub were in the same section of the unit. Although it was listed to have a kitchenette, it only had a microwave and a coffee maker (the one that uses pods); it didn't have a stove, a toaster or an electric kettle. It turned the description was outdated and I believe it has been corrected. There were an ample supply of towels. Everything was clean. When we needed something or had questions, Robin responded quickly. We would consider staying here again next time.

Good stay; convenient location.
Had our elderly folks stay here and they enjoyed themselves. Only comments were that they didn’t realize that there were two second floor units adjacent to one another (although no complaints), and it would have been beneficial for them to have had a handrail for the exterior porch stairs.

Well appointed stay in Port Townsend
We enjoyed all the little things our host had done to make our stay comfortable and welcoming. The breakfast area was nice to have; we were able to play games there as well as eat. The host provided what was stated in the description. The bed room was spacious and the bed comfortable. The Keurig was stocked with coffee and tea choices. The front garden was a lovely place to eat our lunch.

Port Townsend neighborhood retreat
We enjoyed our stay in this nicely furnished, cozy studio. It’s pleasant to be located a little ways out of the hubbub of the town center. The private entry is charming and efficient. The bed is of good quality, quite firm. We especially liked the ability to prepare our simple snacks and enjoy them in the small dining nook. The soaking tub is great! Towels and napkins, etc. were quite scented, sheets less so. We would have preferred no added scents.

We truly enjoyed our stay. The Dove's Perch Suite was exactly as pictured, in fact even better. It is spotlessly clean and well appointed, with quality furniture, some family heirlooms, beautiful photographs on the walls, and more. Robin is a gracious and informative host.

Great location, beautiful property, attentive host.
We stayed about 10 days at Robin’s Nest in the Heron Cove. The suite was spacious with plenty of amenities. The location was close to all the main attractions, restaurants and stores. Robin is a gracious and attentive host. She’s always around to answer questions and to make sure we had everything we need. We plan to return to PT soon and will certainly book a room at Robin’s Nest. I highly recommend her place.
