Autumn and Winter at Lummi Stugan
As the seasons change, Lummi Stugan offers a cozy retreat where you can embrace the slower pace of island life. Built in the 1970s by Scandinavian immigrants, the cabin’s updated interior still retains its charming heritage, blending light beachy elements with whimsical Scandinavian artifacts. This single-level home is perfect for couples, small families, or anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of Lummi Island during the cooler months.

Warm and Inviting Living Spaces
Step inside and feel instantly welcomed by the cozy ambiance of the living room. The gas fireplace offers warmth and comfort at the click of a button, making it an ideal spot to curl up with a blanket and enjoy a good book or your favorite show. Large windows in the living area let in plenty of natural light, even on cloudy days, and provide stunning views of the water and surrounding islands.

The two comfortable bedrooms are designed for restful nights, and the bathroom, with its combination bathtub/shower, offers a soothing space to refresh after a day of exploring. The cabin’s vaulted ceiling and exposed beams create an open, airy feel, while the thoughtful Scandinavian touches add charm and character throughout.

Outdoor Spaces to Enjoy All Year Round
Even in the cooler months, the large front deck at Lummi Stugan remains a favorite place to relax. Enjoy your morning coffee while watching the mist roll over the water, or wrap up in a cozy scarf and enjoy a sunset drink as the sky fills with soft hues of pink and orange. The lawn offers plenty of space to enjoy the fresh air and the quiet comings and goings of island life.

A very short walk brings you to the nearby beach, where driftwood logs invite you to sit and take in the peaceful shoreline. The shallow waters make it easy to explore the beach’s natural beauty, perfect for quiet reflection and beachcombing.
