Wonderful home with a welcoming cabin feel. The home was well stocked with towels, kitchen essentials, and bedding. The yard space and dock provide sun all day long and the hot tub was great to relax in at night. We can’t wait to stay again!

Great getaway

We had a lovely stay at the cabin on Lake Whatcom. The cabin was outfitted with everything we needed and then some. Even though it was very hot during our stay, it cooled off nicely at night. Road noise was minimal and didn't bother us. The dock and lake access can't be beat! We would gladly stay here again.

Family trip

This was a perfect spot for the family. A yard to play in AND the lake access was perfect. Would absolutely come back and stay. Only con was parking, but that’s no fault of the host, that’s totally normal for the area. And considering others that I saw, the property offered decent spots.

Amazing property

We loved our stay. This cabin is the best equipped vacation rental we've seen. We cooked almost every meal and had everything we needed. We took the kayaks out on the lake a few times and enjoyed the hot tub every day. The views and privacy are unmatched. We can't wait to come back!
