Amazing property! I almost don’t want to tell so I can keep it a secret… The guesthouse is great value for money, two separate bedrooms - beautifully decorated, comfy beds, gorgeous bath. And you have access the pool, hot tub, kayaks, fire pit and grounds - can’t wait to come back!

Gorgeous property with high-end finishes inside and out and a beautiful location on Lake Whatcom. For just the two of us, a little sitting room instead of a second bedroom would have been a plus, but not a deal-breaker. We'd stay there again in a heartbeat.

Wonderful stay on the lake

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in these wonderful rooms! The coffee maker, microwave, and frig allowed me to have some meals, the beds and bathroom are wonderful, clean and spacious! I enjoyed my coffee on the dock every morning - watching the sunrise and the fish jump! And we took the kayaks out a couple times! And an easy drive into town!
