What a lovely, cozy spot to enjoy the holidays. The home was decorated for the holidays, sparkling clean, toasty warm and the beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed dipping in the lake with the hot tub at the ready. Would definitely recommend to friends and family or stay again!

Wonderful lakefront family cabin

Wonderful home with a welcoming cabin feel. The home was well stocked with towels, kitchen essentials, and bedding. The yard space and dock provide sun all day long and the hot tub was great to relax in at night. We can’t wait to stay again!

Great getaway

We had a lovely stay at the cabin on Lake Whatcom. The cabin was outfitted with everything we needed and then some. Even though it was very hot during our stay, it cooled off nicely at night. Road noise was minimal and didn't bother us. The dock and lake access can't be beat! We would gladly stay here again.

Family trip

This was a perfect spot for the family. A yard to play in AND the lake access was perfect. Would absolutely come back and stay. Only con was parking, but that’s no fault of the host, that’s totally normal for the area. And considering others that I saw, the property offered decent spots.

The house was just what we needed. The location on the water was spectacular. Great views and access to the water. The hut tub was great and we used it just about every day. The inside of the house was equipped with everything we needed. The place was great and we had a wonderful 6 days with our 2 children

Amazing stay

I feel we went at the perfect time of the year. It was warm enough during the day to enjoy the lake and cool in the evenings and mornings to enjoy the hot tub. Kitchen was well-equipped, and gorgeous views from the windows. It was great to have the barbeque and a full kitchen, so we could make all our own meals. As another review mentioned, perfect getaway for a couple as the upstairs beds were all in open space. There was a downstairs bedroom that was private. Lovely place and would stay again.

Wonderful lakeside house

We loved this cozy house, nestled up to Lake Whatcom. Even though the weather was grey and rainy, the gas fireplace added to the ambiance. I would love to stay again in warmer weather to fully enjoy the lovely outside deck, spa, and dock. It was a perfect location to stay while visiting relatives in Sudden Valley. It was roomy and could easily accommodate 6 adults. The hosts were very easy to work with and had kindly decorated for the holiday season. It was very clean and well equipped.

Excellent Property

Loved this lake front property for swimming off the dock, boating, kayaking. Since the property is a home with a loft, there is no privacy for the guests upstairs but would work best for a couple with young children. It is a beautiful home with excellent frontage to the lake for quiet relaxation. It has an excellent location with close proximity to Blodell Park and downtown Bellingham.

The most wonderful vacation spot

This is our second time staying here in 7 months! It is such a beautiful space and the lake access is top notch. The kayaks provided were awesome and we loved kayaking and swimming around all day. Our kids love the hot tub and playing in the lake and we loved being able to see and get to them from the grass or front porch. This has been one of the first vacations where we just weren’t ready to go home! We will be making this an annual trip and next year- longer!!
