Beautiful Stay!
We were coming together as a family for a wedding. This was a beautiful place to stay and quiet. The place was absolutely perfect and hope to visit again someday! The management was great to communicate with!

Wonderful
This property is so welcoming and family friendly. There is a lot of room for kiddos to run around and neat paces for them to explore. The huge sliding doors and windows made it so easy to watch the kids play on the play set and enjoy the huge yard. We would recommend it to anyone and hope to stay there again in the future.

Cozy and great
We thoroughly enjoyed having a warm fire in the fire place, relaxing in the hot tub, and having plenty of kitchen space for preparing meals! Our family gathered here for the holidays and were all comfortable and relaxed during our stay. It's so challenging to find a spacious rental in/near Bellingham, much less one that was well with our dog coming along and had a hot tub!

Thanksgiving Bliss
Our family of 8 absolutely loved our stay at the Blackbird Lodge! The lodge was stunning with thoughtful design details. We slept well and were close to nature and amenities. Would highly recommend.
