Private Cottage by the Lake with Wrap-Around Deck

My family loved this cottage. Fun little placed, yet felt bigger than the square footage. Nicely tucked away gave it a private feel. Host were great to work with. Looking forward to coming again.

This is a cute little cottage tucked away among the landscaping and trees making it feel remote and private. Beds and pillows were very comfortable. The huge deck outside is really nice to sit and enjoy a cocktail in the evening. Loved the loft with the extra beds, but wouldn't recommend those stairs for young children. It's a small house, but the design makes it feel big. Located across the street from the lake (no view of the lake however) with lake access a short walk down the road.

Amazing spot!

We found an oasis within an oasis when we stayed at the cottage, and simply didn’t want to leave. Surrounded on all sides by trees and greenery, the landscaping sets off a wonderland of nature. We had wanted to be by a lake where we could paddle board and kayak, and in addition were able to use the pickleball court that was a part of the property each evening. Mornings were spent drinking coffee on the wraparound deck, and some yoga with a mat that was at the cottage. The cottage itself was beautiful, full of windows and space that made it seem like we were still outdoors. The kitchen and bathroom were fully stocked, and we made many of our meals there which were again spent on the deck while we listened to birds. Our hosts were always responsive and helped walk us through things that cropped up. We appreciated their quick communication. We loved it so much that we have already re-booked for the next summer when we are back up in Bellingham.

This is the perfect place for your family or friends to use as a home base for outdoor adventures in the Bellingham area. You’re 10-15 minutes from world renowned mountain bike trails in Galbraith, Chuckanut, and Sudden Valley. If hiking is your thing you’ve got that too! If water sports are what you’re into, you’re in luck! It was great to have a garage to secure your bikes/outdoor gear in, and the home was spacious and comfortable. Relaxing by the fire pit after adventuring all day was wonderful. If you want to just relax, the neighborhood is peaceful and quiet. Heated floors in the bathroom were luxurious. Our one regret was we never used the tennis court! We would definitely book here again!

We loved our stay! We were in town for a family reunion close by and this couldn’t have fit the bill more. It’s close to Bellingham and right off Lake Samish. They have toys for the lake and for the sport court on the property! Will definitely stay here again :)

Private cabin surrounded by cedars and steps away from the lake. Spacious great room with a cozy electric fireplace. Two big decks to enjoy the outdoors. My friend is recovering from surgery and this was a wonderful place to relax, cook, and just hang out. It would be even better in summer as two paddle boards and a small kayak are provided.

We stayed here for a week as we moved our daughter into the dorms at WWU. It was just a short 15 min drive to the campus. The home had everything we needed & more. The decor is very nice & comfortable. We all even watched a movie one night & just felt at home. Also the master bed is amazing… Very comfortable! We hope to stay here again on a future visit!

Cabin is creatively designed and decorated. Neighborhood is clean, safe, with recreational. Close to all you need yet located.near trees, lakes and trails.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay. It was a great size for us and the kids loved the sports court...I loved relaxing on the deck! We spent one day out on the lake with the provided paddleboard and kayak and had a wonderful day. We would definitely stay here again!

Relaxing and peaceful, this cottage has everything you need to connect with nature. Well stocked kitchen and owners very responsive. I will definitely return.

We loved this little cabin, especially the pickle ball court (shared with rental next door) and the closeness the Bellingham and local lakes. We used the paddle boards and kayak available and enjoyed chilling in the cabin too.

Our UK based family stayed at this property with other family staying at the lakeside house across the street. This made for a perfect reunion location with local family providing access to the lake and pickleball amenities. The owners were extremely responsive and accommodating to our needs. We will certainly consider this location in the future if we gather again in the Bellingham area.

This property is a gem. Its the perfect balance of tranquility and fun. We made good use of the sports court, paddle board, and kayak. The kids loved the loft. The house is well supplied with everything we need, and it so clean and updated. The hosts gave a quick check in message to make sure we had everything we needed. This shot to the top of the list of our favorite vacation rentals.
