My sister and I loved it! We sat and the breakfast nook and looked at family genealogy, a perfect setting for it. It. And during our evening there, we sat up on the rooftop level deck and enjoyed the beautiful view of Birch Bay. My sister wants to rent the house now and bring her grandsons with her. Plus, I was allowed to bring my darling little doggy. What a bonus!

House is nice. Close walk to everything but far enough away that it is quiet when relaxing in the evening. Porch is great for relaxing and separated from the yard for dogs.

Great little beach house
Although we had a briefer stay than planned, our group of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this adorable home. The communications with the owner/manager were pleasant and clear.The beds were comfortable and there was coffee available in the morning! Due to the weather, we weren't able to enjoy the outdoor spaces but if we were to travel again in the area, IIwould love to stay here.herdewould c

The Maxwell House in Birch Bay was the perfect size and location for our family of 4 + our golden retriever. We enjoyed trips to the beach, the state park, outings to Bellingham and more. The kitchen is well stocked and we enjoyed cooking breakfast and dinners at home, and playing board games in the breakfast nook. Would stay again.

Great time perfect place to stay if you are into fireworks. Great house but not for people that can’t handle stairs. Quiet when the fireworks stopped. Clean and has great little touches in the kitchen and throughout the house.
