Paradise Heights B&B

Hard to believe, but our little "retirement" gig is three years old today!!! We would love to thank everyone that has been involved in Paradise Heights' success, but of course there are way too many people to list (and FB doesn't give you that much space!). And of course we want to thank all of our loyal guests, without whom this would literally not be possible. Here's to many more!

- Adrian and Tracy

Let us take some of the stress away from finding the perfect gift for that hard-to-buy-for recipient - give them an experience instead!

p.s. Our gift certificates are transferable and never expire.

New blog post! A little later this month so that we could wish everyone a very happy Thanksgiving!

Of course, our newsletter subscribers had this in their inboxes before the holiday... would you like to join them? We promise no spam, and we would never sell your information (we hate spam too!!!). We just send our newsletter about once a month with updates, some recipes, and whatever else we think might tickle your fancy... and of course you get it before it's posted here. Interested?

Tired of the same old shopping routines after Thanksgiving? This year, why not try keeping it local and check out the 32nd Annual Arts and Crafts Fair in Port Townsend? Brought to you by the Port Townsend Arts Guild, this juried show brings you some of the finest of PT's artisans, showcasing their skills in jewelry, pottery, paintings, photographs, leatherwork, and so much more! Three floors to shop! Plus, 5% of all sales are donated to Jefferson County Food Banks! Shop local this season!

Another "new to us" venue to check out this weekend - Timber Forest Artist Market! They have a great lineup of artisans for this weekend, and will be setting up shop every two weeks with what appears to be a rotating cast of vendors. Address is 294952 US 101, Quilcene. See you there!

If you follow Pacific Northwest weather, you know that we were hit with a record-breaking "bomb cyclone" last night (for the weather lovers out there, this storm's central pressure crashed from 29.53 inches to 27.82 inches in 24 hours, which is more than double the criteria for a bomb cyclone). We were incredibly fortunate, and suffered only downed limbs on the property. The winds from this storm came up from the south from us - an odd direction that blew our patio furniture to the end of the main deck - we just went with Mother Nature and tied it all down there! Our guests were gracious throughout and are ready to continue on their travels today, ferries permitting!

We want to send our thoughts out to those dedicated linemen who were out in the wind and rain last night battling to keep everyone's power on - Jefferson County is restored this morning, while many others around us are not so lucky - and to all of those who experience much more damage than we did. Usually the Olympic Peninsula gets the brunt of these storms, but this morning it looks like the mainland took this one on the chin.

Sometimes we get so caught up in chasing that next goal or looking for that next possibility that we forget to pause and remember just how lucky we are... Take a minute today to be grateful for the world you have built around you.

And no, we'll never be tired of this view - or of sharing it with our guests!

Sunday, Sunday, SUNDAY!!! Take a little bit of time out of your weekend to check out the Navy Band Northwest Brass Band at the U.S. Naval Undersea Museum (next to Naval Undersea Warfare Center Keyport)! Access to the museum does NOT require base access - and bonus, you can go early or stay late and check out a very cool museum!

More museum info here: https://www.history.navy.mil/content/history/museums/undersea/about-us/mission-and-vision.html

If you're not familiar with the Navy Band, these Sailors are top-notch musicians and competition to be selected is quite rigorous. Check them out and enjoy their talent!

Each year, we take a few days to attend the Washington Independent Inns Network conference to learn more about our industry, see innkeeper friends, mentor newer innkeepers, and keep up with best practices so that we can provide the best guest experience possible. This year we're at Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort, which has added a whole new (and welcome!) level of learning about interacting with our Native American neighbors and potential guests. It's time well spent and we're looking forward to putting our new knowledge to work!

Sending all veterans a hearty "THANK YOU" on this Veteran's Day!
