Bellingham Beauty!

We have stayed at this property three times in 7 years and we all have fond memories of the sunroom, backyard, access to walking trails, peaceful setting, and even the steam shower! Erik is a great host. Plenty of towels for our group and a well supplied kitchen make this a home away from home.

Great place for our family

We needed a place with 4 bedrooms for multiple couples ranging in age from 20’s to 70’s. We loved that each bedroom had a king size comfortable bed with plenty of pillows and blankets. The bathrooms are spacious and nice. The kitchen had everything we needed. And the family enjoyed having walking trails so easy to access. I’d definitely stay here again and would recommend it. It was a nice neighborhood and close enough to anything we needed.

Great!

Plenty of room for our group of 5 friends. We loved the hot tub, and walking out the back door to hiking trails. Kitchen has everything we needed and the weather was spectacular! (Not sure that is guaranteed for future renters (-:) It was the perfect home base for us to explore the San Juan islands, Vancouver, BC and Mt. Baker.

Beautiful home, perfect stay

The home is lovely and spacious. There were 8 of us with plenty of room to spread out and sleep. From there, we day-tripped to Vancouver, Seattle, and the North Cascades. The kids went to Whatcom Falls Park every day, a 5 min walk. Other major perks: the piano and hot tub! Both were used daily. Everyone in the family would enthusiastically recommend this listing.

Great place

We enjoyed our stay and the house fit our needs well. Great location near nature and a close drive to downtown. It’s worth noting that you don’t have garage access which we had not realized in advance. There’s also an additional attached unit with someone present which we didn’t know. It wasn’t a problem, just felt it should have been in listing. Overall, a good stay.

Great Stay!

This house has everything you need. Was just there with friends from all over the country and all of us were impressed. Complete kitchen - and table seating for 8 inside or outside on the back deck area. Good outdoor grill. Roomy hot tub; lovely private back yard. A doe and her 2 fawns hung out for awhile one day. Four bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. One bathroom has a steam shower! There were 8 of us and the size of the house was appreciated. We were able to park 6 cars off-street, with room for another one. Highly recommend this house. Erik is great too - either answered my calls or called back quickly.

Lovely house, perfect for a large group

This house was perfect for our group consisting of 7 female family members (aunts/cousins/wives of cousins). Lots of room to spread out in the kitchen for card games, plenty of room in the living room to enjoy a movie on a rainy evening. The kitchen had lots of quality dishware, cutlery and glasses. The bedrooms and bathrooms were stocked with high quality linens, in generous supply. The mattresses were also very deluxe, causing a few of us to consider an upgrade on our return home. The backyard is lovely, with beautiful plantings and a nice deck to enjoy the sun and surroundings. Communication with the host was excellent. The location next to Whatcom Park was extremely enjoyable. What a treat to have such a beautiful park available out the back fence! We used it at least once each day. The house is located in a very nice neighborhood that was fun to walk. It is very close to a movie theatre, grocery stores, Costco, restaurants. I would highly recommend this property.

Great Place for Family!

It is a lovely home in a lovely and convenient neighborhood. It is surrounded by beautiful trees, and the all season room makes the inside feel part of the outdoors. My granddaughter loved seeing the deer cut through the yard to the trail in the back. The home is very well equipped. It was very nice to have everyone able to eat together at the larger table with kitchen bar. The house has some “issues” but it’s not my house to make “perfect.” Watch for broken tiles, broken cabinet doors, and yucky grout; the stained carpet is NOT a leaking roof (frightened us when walked in). The only “real” criticism—it’s cold in Bellingham winter. Arriving in the dark (4:30 pm) to a house that is 58 degrees makes the first couple of hours almost intolerable. I understand that heating is expensive but there’s got to be a way to automate! But we had a great trip and loved the house. Clean and comfy bedding, lots of towels and blankets, and space to spread out. We would definitely rent again and would love to be there in summer.

House is in a great area and the nearby parks are simply amazing. Owner is very responsive to messages and was accommodating of an early check in request. Only downsides are that ther eis an attached ADU that wasn't mentioned in the listing (not really a big deal) and several fixtures need repair and show their age a bit. Would also have loved to have had garage access (though I knew there was no garage from the listing). Overall I think this is a great place and I'd stay again.

My family has been renting houses for family vacations for 23 years. This house was the best ever as far as providing everything one could need for a month’s stay (toiletries, paper products, laundry soap etc). Very generous. And the kitchen utensils were among the best as well. Since we cook all of our meals, that was most appreciated. Erik even brought over his personal stand mixer for our use. The back deck, hot tub, yard and access to the 240 acre park right behind the house were all great and a private space surrounded by vegetation. We enjoyed almost every meal outside in Bellingham’s perfect summer weather.

Great location, comfortable home

This rental was perfectly located for exploring Bellingham—close to downtown, parks, Galbraith, and the waterfront. We loved being just minutes from coffee shops, restaurants, and scenic trails. The neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe, yet everything we needed was easily accessible. The home itself was clean, cozy, and well-stocked with thoughtful touches. We’d definitely stay here again for a convenient and comfortable Bellingham visit!

Wonderful house with beautiful park access

We stayed for a girls weekend and had a great time. The house backs up to the Whatcom Falls park and there is access via the backyard. The kitchen is nicely stocked with all the utensils you need. There is a regular drip coffee pot and a French Press, which was nice for those who drink decaf.

Low key birthday getaway

The only reason for a 4 out of 5 in cleanliness were some ants. The host was glad I brought it to his attention so that he can take care of it. I am quite positive that the next time we stay there we won’t see any. The property and house was gorgeous and just what we expected from the photos. The host was easily accessible when needed. It was the perfect spot to go downtown, yet come back to quiet, serene neighborhood. Close to parks, nature, waterfall, and the river. We will be back.
