Perfect property for our stay-- plenty of space, lots to do, and great views of Lake Samish. Communication was prompt and friendly as well. I will definitely be returning to this house and staying longer next time!
This pretty house was perfect for our family holiday! Such great lake views, fabulous walk to the lakefront park and big spaces to be together. We loved the cozy beds, well stocked kitchen and big dining table for family meals. Laundry room, multiple decks and yards, and jet tub outside were bonuses. This was the hang-out house we were looking for!
Overall happy with the home and the stunning view of the lake. Master bedroom was colder than other rooms and the shower pressure was not great and water heat could have been better.Main bathroom was perfect. We didn't use the hot tub since it needed to be filled and we we're not sure if water would be hot enough.
Wonderful stay, highly recommend this lake front property! Beautiful, quiet location, ideal for relaxation. Clean, spacious house with thoughtful extras. Will definitely stay again!
Our family of five stayed for a night at this lovely house. Plenty of space, a fantastic deck and view over the lake, and excellent communication and responsiveness from the host. Would definitely recommend!
This was the perfect place for our family to stay. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and comfortable. The bungalow is absolutely beautiful, newly renovated, and thoughtfully designed with everything we needed. The views are stunning and incredibly peaceful, and being within walking distance to Lake Samish Park was a huge bonus for our family.The host truly went above and beyond. The home was decorated for Christmas which made our stay feel extra special, and we were greeted with a lovely bottle of wine. Every small request we had was kindly and quickly accommodated, which made our experience even better.The house was clean, cozy, and relaxing, and it felt like a true home away from home. We made wonderful family memories here and would absolutely stay again. Highly recommend this beautiful lakeside bungalow.
This was our first VRBO experience and it was great. The host was very thoughtful and detailed, on arrival the rental perfectly matched the listing. The views of the lake from the home were amazing. We loved our stay and would love to rent this location again.

Weekend stay
The property was overall really nice and quite comfortable. The fire pit and the outdoor tub were both highlights for us. The check in process was easy based on the info provided
Just a quick stay for our anniversary & it was wonderful. The lake, the birds & not too far from Bellingham to enjoy some good eats & drinks. Love it here! Will be back soon!!
We had a wonderful long weekend away here. Despite the freezing cold weather we were able to stay warm and enjoy games and puzzles at the dinning room table while seeing a couple eagles catch a fish on the lake. Close to Bellingham restaurants, breweries, and our favorite bookstore.
Nice retreat, close to beaches and Bellingham. Comfortable for family..Nice coffee choices. Covered garage area for safe toddler play but yard not secure for dogs. Lots to do in the surrounding area.

The house was perfect for our family for a weekend stay. Kitchen well-equipped and labeled. Bedrooms were comfortable, bathrooms were adequate. Outdoor seating has lovely view. The lake is peaceful and the area is scenic,
although it is far to markets and dining.
I would stay here many times over. Beautiful view in a quiet neighborhood close to hiking. So much wildlife to see when sitting on the front deck with a cup of coffee. The owners were kind to provide coffee, snacks and plenty of fire wood! Excellent spot!
Great view. Very comfortable. Thot we were getting a typical hot tub but it was a jetted bathtub for two. Said it was 4 br but really only 3. Can opener was broken. Multiple trip hazards both inside and out.

Our family get together
We had a nice relaxing time with family and really enjoyed the front porch and the view. The listing said 4 bedrooms and there were only 3. My husband snores very loud so we don’t sleep in the same room but had no choice because the other 2 rooms were occupied by my SIL and my in-laws. On top of that, the bed was hard as a rock, I had to take every blanket I could find to put under us so that the bed didn’t hurt our bodies. I basically had no sleep the entire weekend :-(
This property and host were amazing. The booking process and communication were seamless. The photos of the house don’t do it justice - the house was more spacious than anticipated. After arriving in the dark, it was a pleasant surprise to wake up to such a great view of the lake.
