Nancy and her husband were so nice. They gave us a little tour of this historic house when we checked in. The house was clean and it is very spacious! Two families of four had plenty of room to sleep, hang out and play games. We used the fire pit, ping pong table and borrowed the kayaks (single person) to paddle around the bay, launching from Semiahmoo Resort beach. So, make sure you have a car that can tote them if you plan to use them. We had some trouble with the BBQ, but Nancy was very responsive and they showed up within 15 minutes to fix it. There is plenty of seating inside and outside for eating or just enjoying the view. The town is 3 blocks away with a few restaurants and an ice creamery. Our favorite walk was up to Peace Arch Park (~20min), where you can straddle the line between the U.S. and Canada for a bit.
We rented the house for the minimum of three nights and four couples signed up to stay there. On the first night we had a good group and stayed mostly out on the deck because it was a beautiful evening. Lots of room for people to sit and a refrigerator for cold beverages. The next day we brought tables and chairs and set up down below the deck behind the house. We ate and had a great time from 11a.m. until around 9:00. Another beautiful day with a stunning sunset! Sunday morning we came in and cleaned up and a few people stayed on to play Mexican Train, a domino game. The house had games as well for those interested. Monday morning was checkout. The owners were available at all times to answer questions, lovely people. It’s a very large house with lots of room. The kitchen could use some work, but has everything you need. Fun time!!
Good value for the cost. Perfect location.
Our immediate family came to visit our extended family and enjoy the July 4th holiday. The house and host met all our needs. House location great and within walking distance for the town of Blaine. Our host, Nancy was very attentive and available to meet our needs.
The owner was very friendly in providing information about the rental before I arrived. The only concern I had was she forgot to tell me there was a tenant who rented a space in the basement. He had access to the house via a door that we blocked with a heavy table. This part was a little uncomfortable. The house has antique furniture although very pretty not comfortable and I was afraid to damage. The oven fan made a noise when I used it but it worked well. I also appreciated all the kitchen tools and barbecues that were available for use. The property is great for large family gatherings with plenty of indoor and outdoor space. I would return to this home if the basement did not have main house access. I do have to say the tenant was only seen once during our stay. Overall I had a great stay in this rental.
When we arrived, our hosts greeted us with a very warm welcome! They showed us around the house and property with great joy. The house is magnificent peice of Blaine history. There is a view of Drayton Harbor from almost everyroom of the house and the sunsets were beautiful. It is a nice gentle stoll or bike ride to down town Blaine. The bedrooms are of a grand size, leaving us all to wonder how magnificent the house was when built 1890. The kitchen got a work out while we were there and and was adequately stocked with everything to serve many people. The outside deck area was fun to sit and visit on. We enjoyed ourselves and plan on booking again.
The house was bigger than I expected with all the features I expected and more. The owners were very nice and treated us practically like family, providing food in the refrigerator and helping us with the bikes and kayaks. We loved the location, just a short walk to downtown and restaurants and a great view of the harbor.
Our multi-generational family thoroughly enjoyed staying here during a family wedding. Great spaces to relax and cook, walking distance to downtown restaurants and shops, including Edaleen Dairy for delicious ice cream cones! The sunset over the bay from the deck was stunning! Nancy was a great host and thought of everything, even encouraging us to pick fresh figs from the tree at the front of the house. Highly recommended!
