The space
Timeless Charm in the Heart of Poulsbo

Located on Front Street in Historic Downtown Poulsbo, Viking House is the perfect getaway spot to experience one of Washington’s most picturesque small towns. This vintage farmhouse has been lovingly renovated, keeping its unique charm with the addition of modern comforts, including air-conditioning. It is a truly memorable place to enjoy the full Poulsbo experience. It's also a great home-base to jump off to all the fantastic adventures that surround the Kitsap/Olympic Peninsula region.

This House is Perfect For....

Viking House is a fit for wedding teams, family reunions and small creative groups (quilters, writers) looking for a downtown Poulsbo retreat locale. Walkable Front Street location means easy strolling into the dynamic Historic Downtown Poulsbo scene without having to navigate our popular town’s parking limitations. Enjoy the waterfront path through American Legion Park for an additional dose of the natural beauty which makes Poulsbo unique.

Built in 1890 by the hammers of Norwegian settlers, this special farmhouse has been welcoming people to 'Paulsbo' for 135 years. Convenient location, relaxing water views, comfortable spaces and fun Scandinavian décor offer well-appointed accommodations for 8+ guests; 4 bedrooms/2 full bathrooms (incl Primary with en-suite bath on main floor, no stairs required.) Well stocked, open floor plan kitchen with island, formal dining room that seats 8+ for gathering together, cozy conversation areas, comfy sectional sofa and 75" tv, separate kids’ play space with games, plus a large yard with propane grill, picnic table and corn hole/yard games. Grab a beverage and relax in the porch rockers as the sun sets behind the Olympic Mountains!

This is a Vintage House:

The Viking House has been fully renovated with modern conveniences, but a few quirks remain. Note: there is a pretty unique inside staircase to the second floor. It is not unusually steep (as seen in some antique houses) but it is part of the original 1890 structure, so has a turn at the top with an odd angled ceiling that can be briefly awkward for very tall people. We are unable to secure a baby gate to the old railing, so be very mindful of toddlers upstairs. (This original staircase is why we note we're not a great fit for children under 2.)

If you Bring a Car:
The house has parking for 3 small-sized or 2 SUV-sized cars. Additional parking is available on the street. Please be considerate when parking to not block the amazing neighbor's entrance access.

Quiet Time and No Smoking:
Viking House is a place for fun, but not a place for loud party events or boisterous gatherings of more than the allowed guest limit. Please respect the posted quiet time between 10pm and 8am.
Absolutely No Smoking in or near this old wooden house! Thanks.
