Port Washington, WI Apartments for Rent

Nestled along the shores of Lake Michigan, Port Washington combines maritime heritage with small-town character. Those looking for apartments for rent in Port Washington will discover a historic lakeside community centered around its 1871 harbor. The downtown district features well-preserved 19th-century architecture, including the restored Smith Bros. Fish Shanty building and iconic 1935 Art Deco lighthouse.

With average one-bedroom apartments renting for around $1,022 and two-bedrooms at $1,183, Port Washington offers more affordable housing options than Milwaukee, located 27 miles south. The city's 29 parks include Coal Dock Park, featuring a mile-long peninsula extending into Lake Michigan, and Upper Lake Park, offering dramatic bluff-top views of the harbor.

The downtown marina remains active from spring through fall, while the Ozaukee Interurban Trail provides 30 miles of paved paths for cycling and walking. Residents enjoy easy access to Milwaukee via Interstate 43. The annual Fish Day celebration in July, recognized as the world's largest one-day outdoor fish fry, highlights the community's continued connection to its maritime roots.
