Great place for an overnight getaway

6 ladies stayed the night here for a birthday getaway. The kitchen/living room were great, beds comfortable. Bathroom was very nicely remodeled. It’s very close to both next door neighbors, just fyi. We enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful home!

We had a great stay at this beautiful home for my daughter's bachelorette party weekend. When we had a few questions, Bec got right back to us in short time. Quiet neighborhood - the neighbor, Cole, even assisted when we had a dead car battery! The home is decorated beautifully! The backyard was perfect for meals, relaxing and enjoying a quiet moment. The birds chirping in the morning was amazing! Close to town or anything you would need. Will definitely stay here again!

Well appointed property in a beautiful location

Beautiful home with everything you need to enjoy a lovely stay. About a 10 minute drive from downtown Bellingham and close enough to grocery and other amenities. It's a nice quiet location and a wonderful place to relax. Would revisit.
