Hotels have their time and place, but there’s really something special about a stay at a bed and breakfast. It almost feels like you’re staying at a very wealthy friend’s home — who happens to be an amazing cook — where you’re encouraged to relax rather than be constantly on the go. If you’ve never stayed at the beautiful George Washington Inn in Port Angeles, make this the year you do.

The George Washington Inn sits nestled along the Strait of Juan de Fuca between Sequim and Port Angeles, not far from the entrance to Olympic National Park.

When Dan and Janet Abbott purchased the meadow in 2002, they wanted to share the space with others.

Of course, George Washington never enjoyed a view quite like this one.

The guest rooms are clean, comfortable, and elegant without being pretentious.

Jim L / TripAdvisor Dan and Janet wanted to make this one of the best places to stay in the Olympic Peninsula area, and they succeeded.

Each suite comes with a private bathroom with a soaking tub and a shower.

Every evening, you’ll definitely want to catch the sunset from your window or from the sprawling back porch…

…and in the morning, you’ll be treated to a freshly made breakfast.

Harrison Innkeeper / TripAdvisor The staff prepares everything from local ingredients each morning. In fact, they often use culinary lavender from the on-site lavender fields.

The George Washington Inn is truly a wonderful place to stay.
