Cindy's home is wonderful! It has such a cool, unique loft-style interior, beautiful decor, and was clearly built for gathering. My husband and I and 4 adult "kids" spent a relaxing and fun-filled weekend kayaking, playing pool and board games, and cooking all of our meals there. We loved the large outdoor dining table and fireplace. The beds are very comfortable, everything was spotless, and the views are so lovely. It's about a 20-minute drive to downtown Bellingham, but it's mostly a nice drive along Lake Whatcom. Wish we could have stayed longer but we will definitely be back!

We had an amazing stay at the wonderful lakehouse on Lake Whatcom. Beautiful location. Very clean, comfortable, well stocked home where we were able to enjoy family time with our children and their spouses as well as our grandson. Lots of toys for our grandson to play with, as well as a great grill and hottub on the patio and porch. Great dock and kayaks and paddleboards. Great experience and highly recommend this vacation home and location.
