Gaylord House

Gaylord House

Circa 1908. A shaded front porch surrounded by lush greenery is an inviting way to enjoy the serenity of this two-story Craftsman home, recently added to the city's historic overlay register. Find a secluded spot amid the 4,000-square-foot house, or listen to Gaylord play the clarinet in the parlor. Guest bedrooms offer different decor that match a variety of tastes, from nautical to floral, Mediterranean or old-fashioned English royalty. Select a teacup from the collection gathered by three generations, then enjoy a gourmet breakfast that may include cheese blintzes, baked apple, pork-apple sausage and fresh raspberries. This historic region is known as the gateway to all the wonders of the Pacific Northwest, between the Cascade Mountains and Puget Sound.
