Fantastic weekend getaway in the woods!

We had a wonderful long weekend in the Fairhaven area while staying here. The guesthouse was perfectly located, spacious, clean, and lovely. Close to hiking areas and restaurants. We’ll definitely stay here again if we’re back in the Bellingham area.

Rustic getaway suite in Bellingham

Beautifully located on the south side of Bellingham, this suite is ideally located to explore the towns of Fairhaven, Bellingham, and the Chuckanut mountain area. Very wooded, quiet, and serene. The suite was well stocked with all the essentials, and the bed was super comfortable. We will stay here again on our next visit!!!

This was a wonderful place to relax- we didn't even need to drive to have a hike or explore the nearby rain forest. The place itself was thoughtfully equipped, making for a low-stress and enjoyable weekend.

Cozy Getaway in Bellingham

Quiet and Convenient

I loved this home-away-from-home during my recent trip to visit my daughter. The guest house is roomy and in a quiet neighborhood only minutes away from WWU and downtown. Everything about the rental went smoothly and I'd love to stay again next time I'm in beautiful Bellingham.

Fairhaven fun!!

We had a great stay in this super sweet private home in Fairhaven/Bellingham. It was so wonderful to be so close to some of our favorite spots; Boulevard Park, Chuckanut Drive and Larrabee—a huge highlight was walking the trail behind the rental property to Arroyo Park :-) Thanks for the wonderful hospitality!

Just what we needed!

My wife and I needed a place to stay while visiting our daughter and son in law. We found the one bedroom cabin to be very roomy and comfortable. The surroundings were close to other homes BUT was a very quiet neighborhood. Our kids visited us there a couple of times as well and there was plenty of space. We were more than pleased with the accommodations and will certainly consider a return trip! Definitely recommend this place and host!

Little hideaway in the city

Enjoyed our stay in Bellingham! We were pleasantly surprised to be so close to the city but felt like we were in the country. Beautiful property. The loft was nice, spacious and comfortable. We got to learn how an induction stove works! The owner was very responsive and helpful but not intrusive as they are close. The only negative was having no freezer for ice cubes. A minor inconvenience. We would definitely stay here again!

Great spot

We loved Steve’s place. It is very private and just what my daughter and I needed for a weekend together. It’s close to everything. The only thing it doesn’t have is a freezer, but that wasn’t an issue for us, just letting others know. We didn’t cook because we got takeout from the local Coop or ate at some of the fabulous restaurants. We hiked each day and then enjoyed the evenings playing cribbage or watching a movie snuggled on the couch. One of the nights the owls were chatting away and we loved seeing all the wildlife. It’s a magical area. We will be back for sure!
