Special and amazing home. Instantly feel welcomed and relaxed
This is our 2nd time staying in this beautiful home and we will be going back again next year. Kelli's kindness and thoughtfulness makes this place very special. Much more than a pretty place with a pretty view. From the personalized welcome note, personal communications and cute decorations for the holiday. She also makes it so easy to check in and check out. She treats us like guests, not just another renter.Thank you. Grace and peace.

Grand Bay 401
This property and host are highly recommended for their unsurpassable attention to guests comfort, responsiveness, and thoughtfulness! Our stay exceeded our expectations in every way from the moment we walked in the door. We were gifted dahlias grown by the host adorned just so with a welcome card! Every detail was carefully appointed to ensure guests comfort. We appreciated the lawn chairs, tea kettle, 2 coffee pots, plush beds, books, binaculars, games and every kitchen appliance you’d need to cook in to name a few things. My sister, mom and myself gathered to celebrate a special 80th birthday and it was memory making do to the charm of this property! We will be back!

2nd time at this property
This is the second time staying at this condo and plan to stay again next summer if available. The hosts are easy to communicate with and the unit is always clean and comfortable. Great view of Birch Bay right across the street and a terrific walking path pretty much the length of the bay shoreline.

CONDO OVERLOOKING THE BEACH
This is a beautiful condo overlooking the beach. The unit is on the 4th floor which made for excellent views. It was above and beyond perfect. Working in the area for 9 weeks we wanted something clean and comfortable. This condo is both and if we are back next year, we will definitely look you up. Besides the condo being clean and comfortable, it was very pleasingly decorated and generously supplied with essentials. The new coffee maker and washer and dryer were a plus. Thank you for the picnic basket and cooler and beach chairs.

Excellent Stay!
We loved this condo & the location was exactly as described, except upscale is an understatement. The furniture and bedding was so comfortable, it would have been easy to just stay inside - except the PNW is too beautiful to miss an outdoor moment. Thank you for making out first visit to the area perfect!

Birch Bay Slow Life
We had a wonderful stay at the Birch Beach Condo and would return. We initially planned to come to Washington State for the Bellingham area and its hikes but with our young boys we needed a place that would entertain the boys when we were not hiking. Birch Bay has a large tidal surge meaning at low tide you can walk way out into the bay looking for critters in tide pools and the boys spent much of their time exploring. In addition, there is a family-owned water park just down the street that has been around for some 35 years and yes it is old but, our boys had a blast and the staff working there were some of the most helpful friendliest people we met on the trip.
Birch Bay is very relaxed and slow paced. You can walk down the street for great steamed clams, peel & eat shrimp or the like and then watch the sun set from the beach or the condo balcony that has an amazing view.
The best part of our stay was the host and her attention to my family. There was a small bouquet of fresh flowers on our arrival and her recommendations of hikes and things to do were spot on for us. Kelli really helped us get the most out of our stay and Bellingham and we are thankful.

Hosts Kelli and Mike are very gracious with every detail. Breathtaking views, very comfortable, relaxing and inviting home. It took my breath away the moment I walked in the door. They were wonderful to commincate with, thoughtfully stocked and shared everything someone would need for vacation. Beach is across the street and the complex is very quiet. Best place I have ever stayed and I look forward to spending time there again next year.
