Beautiful artful comfortable home

I loved everything about the house. We were visiting our son at western. It was walking distance (about .8 miles away) from campus. We loved all the beautiful artisan details in the house. The rain shower with the skylight was amazing. The neighbors was quiet. I would definitely stay again.

Unique fun house to stay!

We loved staying at this house over the weekend for the Bellingham Run the Bay! The house is gorgeous, with many small details that were delightful to discover. About a .75 mi. walk from the downtown area, and a 4 min. drive to grocery stores. This was a quiet place to stay, which suited our group. The kitchen was well sticked with equipment to host a nice dinner for folks before the run as well. Nick was very responsive, and respectful of our stay.

Great family getaway

We had several family members who traveled from all over the country for a wedding. The house was well-appointed & beautifully decorated! There isn't a ton of privacy, so staying with people you know well is recommended. ;) Would stay again. I loved the close walk/hike to the arboretum & our fall stay allowed us to pick apples from the backyard! Great walking area & easy to get around B-ham.

Incredibly unique!

This is not your average property, it's an experience! Our stay was a daily treasure hunt, from discovering the owner's craftsmanship utilizing reclaimed materials throughout the entire home to the home decor to the strategically placed surprises to the comfortable deck and back yard. Our family very much enjoyed our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Nick Hartrich

I've lived in Bellingham 25 years, and have been hosting friends and family for all occasions. I treat every guest like a family member and welcome you to reach out for any local tips on how to explore this wonderful community.

Why they chose this property

This home is in a historic neighborhood in Bellingham, located between the University, adjacent to a 200-acre arboretum, and walking distance to downtown. There is an adorable park at the end of our block. The Whole Foods Market and our Community Food Co-Op are both under 1 mile away.

What makes this property unique

This home was handbuilt by me and is a very unique type of stay. Most guests fall in love as soon as they walk through the door but you'll have to see for yourself!
