Great Place for Family!
It is a lovely home in a lovely and convenient neighborhood. It is surrounded by beautiful trees, and the all season room makes the inside feel part of the outdoors. My granddaughter loved seeing the deer cut through the yard to the trail in the back. The home is very well equipped. It was very nice to have everyone able to eat together at the larger table with kitchen bar. The house has some “issues” but it’s not my house to make “perfect.” Watch for broken tiles, broken cabinet doors, and yucky grout; the stained carpet is NOT a leaking roof (frightened us when walked in). The only “real” criticism—it’s cold in Bellingham winter. Arriving in the dark (4:30 pm) to a house that is 58 degrees makes the first couple of hours almost intolerable. I understand that heating is expensive but there’s got to be a way to automate! But we had a great trip and loved the house. Clean and comfy bedding, lots of towels and blankets, and space to spread out. We would definitely rent again and would love to be there in summer.

Low key birthday getaway
The only reason for a 4 out of 5 in cleanliness were some ants. The host was glad I brought it to his attention so that he can take care of it. I am quite positive that the next time we stay there we won’t see any. The property and house was gorgeous and just what we expected from the photos. The host was easily accessible when needed. It was the perfect spot to go downtown, yet come back to quiet, serene neighborhood. Close to parks, nature, waterfall, and the river. We will be back.

Great place for our family
We needed a place with 4 bedrooms for multiple couples ranging in age from 20’s to 70’s. We loved that each bedroom had a king size comfortable bed with plenty of pillows and blankets. The bathrooms are spacious and nice. The kitchen had everything we needed. And the family enjoyed having walking trails so easy to access. I’d definitely stay here again and would recommend it. It was a nice neighborhood and close enough to anything we needed.

Beautiful Home / Great Location
My family LOVED our time in this beautiful home in Bellingham. We were visiting Bellingham to attend our son's wedding. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood, just a few minutes drive from a charming downtown (filled with great coffee shops, restaurants, and shopping opportunities). The house backs up to Whatcom Falls Park, with nice trails and a beautiful waterfall. We were able to walk through the woods to a park that had a children's playground, covered pavilions, and tennis courts. The house is very comfortable. The layout was perfect for several families (or couples) with the bedroom layed out to provide plenty of privacy. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the plates, cups, bowls, silverware, pots and pans to enable home-cooked meals. The living room is very large and was a great place to sit and chat. My daughter and her husband loved to sit in the window seats and chat each morning. The piano was a nice addition, as my son plays piano and he was able to play a few tunes on evening, The beds are very comfortable. The owner provides fans for each bedroom for the warmer summer nights. The bathrooms were nice, with plenty of hot water and good water pressure. The sunroom was very comfortable and a great place to sit and read a book. We enjoyed time on the backdeck and the private backyard. There is also a hot tub on the deck. My family enjoyed staying at his house. It was very comfortable. We found Erik to be very helpful and he responded quickly.

Prime location with loads of space
Location, backyard, space for family to spread out are the key benefits for this property. Definitely walk to the falls if you stay here! Lovely walk right on the park. We were all family in town for a wedding and stayed here. It was perfect location with loads of hang out space so we didnt feel on top of eachother and rooms for everyone. All in all it was perfect for our stay Only minor call out is that alot of the outside furniture was too dirty to sit on and we wiped a bunch of the chairs down in order to enjoy dinner at the outside table. The upstairs deck and chairs could do with a clean too.

Lovely house, perfect for a large group
This house was perfect for our group consisting of 7 female family members (aunts/cousins/wives of cousins). Lots of room to spread out in the kitchen for card games, plenty of room in the living room to enjoy a movie on a rainy evening. The kitchen had lots of quality dishware, cutlery and glasses. The bedrooms and bathrooms were stocked with high quality linens, in generous supply. The mattresses were also very deluxe, causing a few of us to consider an upgrade on our return home. The backyard is lovely, with beautiful plantings and a nice deck to enjoy the sun and surroundings. Communication with the host was excellent. The location next to Whatcom Park was extremely enjoyable. What a treat to have such a beautiful park available out the back fence! We used it at least once each day. The house is located in a very nice neighborhood that was fun to walk. It is very close to a movie theatre, grocery stores, Costco, restaurants. I would highly recommend this property.

Beautiful home, perfect stay
The home is lovely and spacious. There were 8 of us with plenty of room to spread out and sleep. From there, we day-tripped to Vancouver, Seattle, and the North Cascades. The kids went to Whatcom Falls Park every day, a 5 min walk. Other major perks: the piano and hot tub! Both were used daily. Everyone in the family would enthusiastically recommend this listing.

We enjoyed our stay and the house fit our needs well. Great location near nature and a close drive to downtown. It’s worth noting that you don’t have garage access which we had not realized in advance. There’s also an additional attached unit with someone present which we didn’t know. It wasn’t a problem, just felt it should have been in listing. Overall, a good stay.
