Awesome Weekend Getaway!

Really comfortable cabin on the lake. All the amenities you could need, surrounded by a picturesque Lake Whatcom. Such a great place to spend a weekend with family and friends. Close enough to town, a round of golf or two or to hit the local Mtb trails, but far enough away to get some peace and quiet and to chill out. Could not have been an easier check in and check out process as well. Will definitely be back!

What a lovely, cozy spot to enjoy the holidays. The home was decorated for the holidays, sparkling clean, toasty warm and the beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed dipping in the lake with the hot tub at the ready. Would definitely recommend to friends and family or stay again!

Wonderful lakefront family cabin

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 stay

I feel we went at the perfect time of the year. It was warm enough during the day to enjoy the lake and cool in the evenings and mornings to enjoy the hot tub. Kitchen was well-equipped, and gorgeous views from the windows. It was great to have the barbeque and a full kitchen, so we could make all our own meals. As another review mentioned, perfect getaway for a couple as the upstairs beds were all in open space. There was a downstairs bedroom that was private. Lovely place and would stay again.
