Relax in Nature

We had a group of 5 visiting Bellingham for mountain biking and to enjoy the other activities offered in the area. Upon arrival, we were stunned at the beautiful location of the property and were equally impressed with the interior. The house was extremely clean and prepared with attention to detail. Not only was the home ready for our stay and very comfortable, the small attention to detail with toothbrushes, soaps, ample towels, and some basic necessities for those f so e small things to have on hand before heading to the grocery store. It is a bit remote for some, but for our group it was the perfect way to relax after big days on the bikes. Unfortunately, we did not have access to the garage to store a handful of $10k bikes, but felt the location felt very safe and we had no issues storing the bikes elsewhere without concern. Jessica, our property manager was amazing! She was very responsive by both text and phone, often responding within a few short minutes. We had a small issue and she took care of it immediately. Absolutely would stay here again! enough

Wonderful Respite

House exceeded expectations. Clean, new, sophisticated and gloriously secluded. Amenities were very nice and the deck was the perfect place for a cup of coffee and a book, as well as a glass of wine. Perfectly located between Bellingham and Mt. Baker, which is exactly what we wanted. We will be back.
