We had a very enjoyable week at this property. Beds are very comfortable and area is quiet at night. It’s 25-30 minutes from town so you need to stock up on your way there. There is one small pizza/Italian restaurant close by and the food is good. The property is a bit unusual in that the main entrance opens directly into the bedroom. There is another way in and out but you do need to enter through the bedroom if the house is locked. Hot tub is a great feature and there is plenty of outdoor seating.

Wonderful family retreat location and gorgeous property! We recently stayed here for our daughter's WWU graduation. Worth every penny! All of the extra's you could ever want or need. We regularly enjoyed the hot tub, and family visits around the outdoor fire pit. The environment was so peaceful (while also being a short drive away from town). To see deer walking up the driveway in the morning as I had my coffee out on the front deck while listening to the birds chirp was priceless. Plenty of room, games, fun popcorn popper, bbq, etc. etc.! Host was very responsive anytime I had a question both before our trip and during our stay. Highly recommend and we hope to stay here in the future the next time we visit BHAM.

Lovely Short Stay, Could Easily Use for Longer Stays

We really enjoyed our stay at the home, and I'd happily book it again.The location was lovely, comfortable, and worked for what we were seeking, with easy access to both town and a variety of dog-friendly hikes. We were particularly impressed with how well supplied the kitchen was, and with the enclosed dog run. The was also a generous welcoming basket.The hillside construction allows for a lovely view of the lake, and a layout that allows people to find their own space in the house. It also means lots of stairs, which may not be suitable for people with very young children or other mobility limitations.

Great house in beautiful location

We loved staying here! It is so peaceful and lovely. The house is cute and well-appointed, we had everything we needed. My partner loved playing the guitar the owners kindly provide and we enjoyed sitting outside on the deck at dusk and watching the lake. The master bed and living room couch were both comfy.

Great Family Getaway

My husband and I rented the house to spend a week with our adult daughter, son, and daughter-in-law. The neighborhood is great, we loved the relaxing feel of the house, and the hot tub was a hit. Perfect location for all of the day trips we made. The owners were wonderful and very helpful when our daughter left something in the house after checking out. One for the memory books!

Exactly what I needed

The pictures do not do this house justice. It is a perfect modern cozy cabin. I had zero issues with internet, temperature adjustment, cleanliness, appliances, checking in, etc. I never had to contact the owners to ask questions or complain. I stayed by myself, but I would definitely come back with friends or family. The three bedrooms are nice and spacious. The view of the lake is serene. The hot tub was so relaxing. I brought my dog and he loved the fenced in gravel area on the back of the house where he could do his business. I live in Bellingham, but staying in this luxurious house looking out over Lake Whatcom really felt like I had gotten away from city life and was on a lake house vacation. Can't recommend this property enough. Anybody would have a great time staying here.

This was a gorgeous home. The pictures do not do it justice. The Christmas tree was the icing on the cake. We have a small dog so the outside fenced area was great.

Perfect spot in Sudden Valley

This is the fourth time we've stayed in this house, and I can't think of a reason we'd look elsewhere in Sudden Valley. The house is comfortable and well maintained. The view from the front deck of Lake Whatcom is wonderful. The people in the neighborhood are friendly. It's a great place for dogs. We did have one very small issue with a kitchen appliance while we were there, and Owen dealt with it very quickly. We will be using this house as our base of operations until our own house in Sudden Valley is finished!

Great Lake House on Lake Whatcom!

Wonderful visit to Lake Whatcom using the property as a base camp to exploring the PNW. About 2 hours to North Cascades National Park and 1 1/2 to Mount Baker, home was fully apportioned for all our needs. Excellent stocked kitchen with more than enough appliances and utensils to have many home cooked dinners. Kayaks (2) were great to use during the day and the hot tub after three long days of hiking was just perfect. Patti and Owen were superb hosts and kept us informed about the property and things to do in neighboring Bellingham. It was a perfect stay and definitely recommend others interested in this area to consider staying at the “Grand View”! Thanks Owen and Patti and best wishes.

Cozy treehouse like home with gorgeous views!

This home was so cozy, with an amazing view of the lake. It felt like we were in a treehouse as it is surrounded by mature trees and luscious native green landscape. We loved the open living space. It made it really easy to visit with family even when in the kitchen cooking. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The master bed was very comfortable! I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. We loved waking up in the morning to the view of the lake. We also really enjoyed the hot tub. It was clean and very hot which I love! The neighborhood is very lovely. Although it is very hilly, we enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and walking down to the lake. It is very near a park with lake access. It would be a great place to put in a SUP or kyak. Unfortunately we didn't have the best weather so we didn't get to play in the lake but I bet it's very fun in the summer. We would definitely recommend this rental to friends and family!
