This darling lake house has been completely renovated and is 10/10 clean and functional. The house is tucked back into the side of a hill and overlooks Lake Whatcom's beautiful scenery. It is quiet, it is cozy, it's a real charmer and we hope to be back soon. Communication with Xavier was nearly instantaneous and truly nothing could have been better. ##### Colleen C.
