Private Hot Tub and Sauna on the Lake

Our home is on right on the lake so it’s the perfect place relax year round! Almost 1000 Sq ft. of decking over 2 levels provides a multitude of places to hang out and enjoy the lake and nature or take in a hot tub, sauna or both (there's even a cold shower if you’re bold enough to try contrast therapy). For those wanting to get closer to nature there is a large side yard with firepit, adirondack chairs and swing. The Inside of the house is designed with the intention of blurring the lines between outside and inside with tons of natural stone and lake themed decor. With 3 levels, our home allows for both privacy and group hanging out. The top floor is just the Master bedroom and ensuite with jacuzzi tub. The Main level is perfect for family gatherings around the fireplace, kitchen or in the games room with fuseball, air hockey or basketball. The lower level has a large family room and 2 bedrooms. Each level has full a bathroom. There are loungers, hammock and seating on the upper deck. The public beach is a short 10 minute walk or for the more adventurous, there is a steep walk down to the lake from the property to a secluded beach with more adirondack chairs, fire-pit, kayaks and paddle-boards (owner accepts no liability if guests choose to use the rustic path down or use kayaks/paddle-boards). Please remember to bring slippers/socks as our home is a "shoe free zone" indoors. No Parties or events. Residential Neighbourhood- Quiet hours outdoors after dark. 24-hour outdoor video surveillance and noise monitoring of decks and entry doors.

Highly recommend this house! Lovely lake view & very cozy house. Feels like going away to your parents or friends house rather than a Vrbo rental in the best way. Very nicely stocked & host was very responsive to questions. We will definitely come back in the Spring time!!!

This house met all of our needs for our first trip to Washington from the East Coast. The layout is family-friendly and cozy, making it perfect for a relaxing stay. We especially appreciated the electric fireplace on the main floor, which added warmth and ambiance. The hot tub and sauna were wonderful amenities that we enjoyed on multiple occasions.The trek down to the waterfront was a bit challenging due to the steep hill, and it would be much safer and more accessible with full stairs and a railing. Despite that, our family loved using the kayaks and fishing from the shore (with a license). We also enjoyed the abundant wildlife, including birds and deer, which added to the peaceful and natural setting.Overall, a great place for a family getaway!

This house is fantastic. Views in all direction. We were there in August and the house stayed cool most days. The climb down to the water is tiring and steep but my 9 and 12 year old did it multiple times. My 81 year old dad could not but that was fine. We all loved it anyway. Super well stocked place. Definitely would rent again.

Magical weekend at the lakehouse

We just happened to stay during a once-in-lifetime northern lights sighting from the deck of this incredible rental house. I can’t even tell you how wonderful that experience was! The whole place is so well cared for, clean, everything we could ever need was provided. You will fall in love with this place and never want to leave once you get here! Thank you, Anna!

Perfect peaceful escape

Couldn't have asked for a better location for a quick weekend getaway. Loved everything about the place from the house itself and the amenities, to the location and views, the mini-spa on the deck, and the games room (my son is now addicted to arcade basketball). Maybe most of all, coming from the heart of Seattle, where absolute quiet is hard to come by, I loved the silence and serenity! Absolutely perfect!

Fantastic house and location

We had a wonderful time staying in this beautiful house with incredible views of the lake. The host was extremely helpful and accommodating. Probably the most well-stocked home we have stayed in. Other reviews that talk about the steep path down to the lake are not exaggerated. While we had no problem with it but it would not be easy to navigate for someone older or with mobility problems. The house was clean and tastefully decorated. We would definitely stay here again.

Family getaway on Lake Whatcom

We loved our stay at this wonderful home. Our family (two adults, two teenage boys) appreciated all the space to spread out inside as well as outside. The kitchen had everything that we needed. The beds were incredibly comfortable. We even had a peek at the label on the mattress in the master because it was so comfortable. We loved the hot tub, the game room, and our youngest son loved playing the acoustic guitar. The house has everything that you could need or want. We loved the different decks and chairs to sit on, including a swing chair that one of our kids spent time in every morning. We ventured out several times on the kayaks and sat by the water enjoying the beautiful views. There's also a nice sandy spot to swim as well. There's a one mile trail approximately 1/2 a mile from the house. It's a packed gravel trail that loops a quiet pond. If you enjoy running this is the perfect trail to run on. We encountered deer every single day without fail. The property manager was easily available and responsive. We do not have anything negative to say about our experience and will definitely be back again!

Family Fun on Lake Whatcom

The home and property were wonderful. The kitchen is well stocked, the beddings were comfy and the view of the lake is beautiful. The kayaks, paddles and life jackets were a fun addition to the lake shore experience. We fished and caught Bass and Trout. (All fish caught went back in to the lake) No fires due to fire control but not necessary as the weather was kind to us. Grateful for our time in such a warm and inviting home.

Exceptional Lake Home

One of the best rentals we've stayed in. Well kept, stocked and decorated! We did not expect such a beautiful lake view and great areas for our family to hang out, it did not disappoint. While the stairs and outdoor path weren't too difficult for us to manage, 3 stories might be much for some.

Wow.

This property was AMAZING. Good location close to BHam - about 25 minute drive to everything, with a local store closer. But a beautiful home, with an incredible view. Loved spending time with family between outside adventures looking out over the lake. Hot tub was fantastic - sauna would be great (if you are a sauna person). Lake access is definitely steep, but pretty cool to be able to go down there, and have access to kayaks and a fire pit. Cold enough on our trip, though, that we only got in a single polar plunge for the braver members of the family. Would definitely recommend, and return as well.

Excellent location

The lakehouse was the perfect meet-up spot for a week's vacation exploring the PNW. The place sleeps 8 and that's how many we had. Plenty of room to spread out during the days, though, I would say, we could have used a little more elbow room for sleeping - but we made it work! The kitchen was excellent for large meals and well stocked. All the bathrooms were super clean with great water pressure throughout. All in all a great home base for exploring the area or just relaxing on the decks or the swing. Hot tub and sauna were a great bonus. Better than the pictures. Recommended. Matt
