Also known as “Christmastown, USA” owing to it’s rich history in Christmas trees. In December the streets light up with holiday celebration and a historical mural of a 32’ tall Santa greets arrivals from the South. Shelton was once served by a fleet of steamboats. Traveling down Hammersley inlet on the tidal currents, these ships delivered supplies. Tugboats still ride these tides to deliver throughout Puget Sound. There is plenty shopping and dining in Shelton’s downtown.


Take some time to explore all the historical homes with the Shelton Walking Tour 1 & 2.
