The home was perfect for our family stay in Bellingham. The kitchen was well stock with cooking utensils and pans. There was 2 living rooms so the 2 children could have there own tv. 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Beautiful balconys with nice comfortable furniture. The home was very clean. I would highly recommend this home for families.

Excellent home near Lake Whatcom

We moved our daughter into an apartment near WWU and this was the perfect place just outside town for us. House is well equipped and as listed, located in a quiet neighborhood very near Lake Whatcom and the golf course, owner’s communication was great, and is just 20 min from WWU and downtown Bellingham. Highly recommend and we look forward to staying here again when we come up visit.

Perfect house for a family weekend

We rented the house for my daughter’s graduation weekend at WWU. It is even better than the pictures. With the decks and the downstairs, there’s plenty of room for people to mingle. The kitchen was well-equipped. There were deer everywhere. It’s a short walk to the shore. Very happy with our experience!

Bellingham home

We were in town for just a few days for a family wedding. There were two couples and two singles in our group, so the four bedroom, three bath home was perfect. The neighborhood is a very nice lakeside property about 15 minutes from downtown Bellingham and had all the amenities we wanted and then some. The deer roaming the neighborhood was an added bonus. The home was well designed, and the furnishings were great. We couldn't have been more pleased with the accommodations.

Fantastic stay! The house was perfect for our family of 7. Bedroom, bath, living area downstairs and large living/dining area, well equipped kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 2 large decks upstairs, complete with plentiful beautiful deck furniture and 2 fire pits. Property is extremely well maintained and very clean. Owners were particularly responsive to questions and very helpful. It didn't hurt that the weather was Fantastic, too. This was The Nicest VRBO we've ever stayed in and would Definitely stay here again when back in Bellingham !

Whatcom Lake Wonder

Beautiful and very clean house! Well appointed with nice little touches such as coffee beans ready to ground, decaf tea, toiletries in case something was forgotten. Sharon the owner was very attentive to make sure we had everything we needed. We didn’t have time to enjoy all the amenities such as hot tub or deck fireplace but the beds and rooms were comfortable. Would stay here again! Thanks for sharing your house!

Beautiful home away from home!

From the moment we stepped into the bright and welcoming foyer, we knew our stay would be exceptional. The spacious bathrooms, living rooms, and balcony patio offered plenty of room for quiet moments of solitude as well as family gatherings. All areas of the home provided picturesque views of the lake and golf course. The kitchen supplied everything we needed to create a beautiful Thanksgiving dinner. In addition to the great features of the home, its location is only fifteen minutes away from major grocery stores. Thank you Sharon for the use of the rental and communication. I recommend this property for families.

Just as described :)

This place is absolutely gorgeous. Super clean, very spacious, everything available to make your stay a good one. Location is in a beautiful neighborhood and neighbor to the right was extremely nosy and intrusive, but the VRBO host could not have been nicer to work with. Responded quickly and was very accommodating in every way. Will definitely return, just beautiful and every so comfy.

Wonderful time at this property on Whatcom Lake

This property is absolutely beautiful and even more beautiful than the photos can illustrate. My three teenaged children and I stayed here for a week and it was perfect for us. It is clean, really nicely decorated and everything we needed was here. The owners are friendly and responsive and the location is gorgeous. We spent days at the lake, but also hiked in the Chukanut Mountains and spent time at Whatcom Waterfalls park, where we hiked and swam. We will definitely come back!
