The house is very appropriately situated to enjoy and walk to many activities in Bellingham. I would hugely recommend it if visiting WWU. It's also very well laid out for a family, very clean and has all of the amenities you need for your stay.

Loved this pet friendly, comfortable and convenient spot steps from co-op and walking distance from many restaurants and music venues. And Mallard's ice cream! Short drives took us to fun parks, and our dog had one of her best vacations ever, including making new friends at the farmer's market a couple of blocks from the house!

Thank you so much for the lovely review, Erica! Really hope to have you back again, soon.
Loved staying here! So close to everything in downtown Bellingham and a great rooftop deck to soak in the sunset. The house was very clean, you wouldn’t think it was pet friendly. Owner was responsive and helpful throughout the stay. Highly recommend.

Great location, great upstairs balcony, off street parking. The house was fully stocked with dishes, cleaning supplies, towels. Host was responsive and gave us a list of local recommendations. We are looking forward to a return trip.

Clean, comfortable, spacious, well-appointed, amazing location, and great communication from the host. It is a lively neighborhood with some street noise, but no louder than I'd expect for downtown in a college town. Definitely didn't disrupt our sleep (only mentioning because another review called out street noise). We liked watching the neighbor's cat sunning on a windowsill We were only there for one night, but hope to return for more time in the future. Thank you!

Disliked: Listing accuracy
Ouse was just okay. Listed hairdryer as available but none there so had to go purchase one. Bathtub didn't drain when using and difficult to use. Parking explanation is inadequate..is parking out back? Fence in front is not unit parking but public.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 March 2026
I’m sorry to hear your stay fell short of expectations.
To clarify: the hairdryer was in fact there and available in the upstairs bathroom when I checked immediately after your departure. I still issued the $50 refund right away as a courtesy for the inconvenience you experienced.
The bathtub drains properly once the diverter lever is pushed all the way down into full “drain” mode. I’ve added a clear label and updated instructions to prevent any future confusion.
Parking for the unit is clearly described in the welcome message and check-in instructions as “off the alley” behind the house, with a dedicated sign marking the exact spot (separate from the public parking in front).
I also wish the shower questions had been sent through the VRBO app or text first, as your calls came through at 1 AM my time while I was on the East Coast.
Thank you for the feedback. I’ve made the above improvements based on it to help future guests have a smoother stay.

Host and owner of The Sunshine Cottage
The cottage is on a busier street than we expected, and parking instructions were unclear (host will be correcting this). Parking is in the alley behind the property. Bedrooms on the Forest St. side were too loud with traffic at night, but those on the alley side were much quieter. House is generally clean and pleasant, with a distant view out over the bay, but it is minimalist. Furniture is comfy and good quality, but there were no games/puzzles/toys/books when we stayed, and the kitchen lacked some basic items. That said, the hosts were VERY open to feedback and I'm certain they will addressing these issues. The place was spacious for entertaining, centrally located (close to the food co-op!), and we would definitely stay there again.

Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed review! We really appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear you enjoyed the cottage’s comfort, spacious layout, and convenient central location.
One of the benefits of being so close to downtown is easy access to shops and restaurants, though the tradeoff can be a bit more street noise than some guests expect. While no previous guests have mentioned this as a concern, we understand that sensitivity to noise can vary, and we’re happy the alley-side bedroom worked better for you.
Regarding parking, we do outline in our welcome message that parking is located behind the house off the alley, with a sign marked “Unit A Parking.” That said, we want to ensure it’s crystal clear for all guests, so we’re reviewing our instructions to make them even easier to follow.
We’ve also taken your suggestions to heart: additional kitchen items like a peeler have already been ordered, and we’ve added some games for future guests to enjoy. While games and toys weren’t listed in our amenities, we hope they’ll be a fun bonus for others.
Thank you again for staying with us and for sharing your experience. We’re so glad you’d return, and we look forward to hosting you again!
This home was clean and had plenty of space for 6 adults. It is also in an amazing location with restaurants, bars, breweries, and entertainment all a short walk away. We would love to stay here again!
