This was exactly the getaway location we were looking for. Close to Bellingham and good hiking. It was fun to explore the lake and we even saw a beaver one night. The house is very comfy and relaxing...all the things you would ever need in the kitchen are there. Gorgeous sunsets and the fire pit was great to gather the crew each night. Cleanliness could use a bit of work...a lot of the bowls and serving dishes were sticky when we arrived. Also, there are downstairs caretakers which has plusses and minuses...just something to be aware of. Overall I would stay here again for a family get away because of the location.

Incredible view and great yard. Great location and cozy house were excellent for a calm weekend. Easy to find and smooth check-in.

Enjoyed our stay at the house; we had a long weekend workshop that went late each day, so we were only able to partially take in the lovely location and house; it would be nice to return for pure leisure and enjoy just being on the lake.
