About this apartment rental

Cozy guest home by Lake Whatcom. Adjacent to home, back yard for you. You can use zip line & big swing AT YOUR OWN RISK... This is a Studio Guest Home, but I don't have an option to put 0 bedrooms. I also have internet, cable, etc. Close to town, Mt. Baker, new outdoor hot tub, in nice neighborhood but tucked into an acre of woods. Parking, and outdoor fire to enjoy. All smoking outside. You can come as late as you want & check for last minute pricing deals if coming after 8:00 p.m. We are always available. We always give you the back yard when you come so you have the utmost privacy - easy check in/out. We really want you to feel like you are home!

Someone will always be available 24 hours a day to help you with anything you need. Turn on the hot tub, find a place to order in, or suggest where to go out. Wash your clothes if you need, whatever happens, we are here to serve you. We have a chair that turns into a bed if you want to bring your kids or have some friends visiting. I have a check in time of 3 and a check out time of noon, but I really like to be flexible. Please communicate on your times you prefer and if it is possible I will work with you to choose different times. It's also great to know if you are leaving early or checking in late so I can give the other guests flexibility immediately too. Thank you! Don't hesitate to ask about any other accommodations. We love our guests and meeting new folks!

Cottage was very clean and well equipped. The neighborhood is lovely and good for walking a dog. Heather was very helpful with restaurant suggestions ; Dragon River had excellent food!

It was a great place to stay but the owner was out of town and Sean was helping. Our AC window unit wouldn’t work but he was very helpful. The listing needs updated photos. Everything was different than the photos.

Luckily we only booked one night. The pictures are very deceiving! It looks like there are different spaces and the house is secluded...no! It is all one room. The only water is in the bathroom. There was no hot water for showers. The hot tub was between the rental and their house so we didn't feel comfortable to use it. We had to walk past all their house windows to go to the rental because it is so close to their house. Prior to our check in, I had sent three messages to the owner that were never responded to (I wasn't asking questions or anything, but there was no acknowledgment). The mattress was falling through the broken slats in the bed frame and it was so wiggly and uncomfortable. We always try to avoid sleezy cheap hotels and so we started doing vrbos instead.... should have just found a cheap hotel.

We loved our stay at Heather’s place. It was perfect for myself my husband and our two dogs. Great shower and comfortable bed. We walked our dogs all around the neighborhood and nearby lake and park. The best part was how quiet it was at night! We will definitely be back, as our son lives close by.

Heather was quick to respond to me with all my questions. Though the place is next to her house she gave us privacy and it felt like it was just us. The place is surrounded by trees, it feels like you’re staying in the forest; it’s so quiet. When we got there Heather showed us how to use the zip-line and had kind words for I was feeling old due to my birthday. It was relaxing wooded get away yet close to restaurants. PS the heated bathroom floor rocks!

Great stay in a pacific northwest gem. Heather was a lovely and very attentive host. We loved the space and our daughter was in heaven in the wooded space. The zipline and big swing were huge hits. Appreciated the location and country setting. The suite had everything we needed. Heather had thought of everything. Thank you for a wonderful weekend.

This was a perfect little spot for my husband and I to getaway and mountain bike for a few days! Super spacious little guest home with pretty much everything you need and close to all the things to enjoy in Bellingham and lake whatcom. The hot tub was superb and that bed was SO SO comfortable! Definitely reccomend for couples or small families :)

We felt right at home in this guest house that backs up to beautiful forest. We enjoyed the hot tub in the evening, fire pit and quiet location.

Lovely setting with easy access into town

The place was lovely - with pretty view of the woods out back. We were too busy visiting our children in town so we didn’t get a chance to enjoy the fire pit but it looked like a nice set up. The owners were friendly and their dog was so sweet that my dog had a wonderful time having play dates with him. She thought we were going there just for her to play. We will be back again!

Wonderful getaway

Wonderful getaway

We were given a phone call that the VRBO was ready early which was a great surprise. The directions for checking in were very simple. Owners are very nice and sweet people. The place is a mother in law style suite complete with fridge, microwave, and toaster oven. Surrounded by beautiful woods, and when it's time to relax you can dip in the pre heated hot tub or make yourself a nice fire! This was the perfect weekend getaway for me and my fiance's anniversary. It's walking distance from the beautiful lake and 10 minutes to downtown Bellingham! 5 stars for this lovely place !

Best vrbo stay yet!

Best vrbo stay yet!

Bf and I agree this is the best rental we have experienced even without getting to take advantage of all the amenities. We only stayed one night and can't wait to stay again for much longer. The space was the perfect size for the two of us and our two small dogs. There was ample room so as to not feel cramped at all, but still cozy. The bed was comfy and the area quiet for a good night's sleep. The little house is located on a lovely patio behind the main house and away from the road with lush landscaping surrounded by trees and a large forested hill. It feels much more like a retreat than a residential neighborhood! The outside amenities are beyond what I would ever expect. On the patio just steps outside the door is the fire pit (host will even start the fire for you!) under the gazebo with ample seating with a bbq grill and picnic table nearby perfect for summer dinners, s'mores and wine. The hot tub is tucked away next to the house for a more secluded relaxing soak. Up the forested hill on the other side of the house is a chiminea with seating for more of a rustic camping type fireside experience, a wooden swing in the trees to bring back the delight of childhood and a zipline through the woods. Heather was excited to show me how to use the zipline and it was a blast! Heather and her husband were perfect hosts. Friendly and eager to make your stay wonderful without being intrusive. I truly cannot recommend this place enough.

We had a wonderful time staying here. We were in Bellingham visiting our daughter. She and her friends joined us in the evenings. We had a great time sitting around the fire visiting. The girls loved the big swing & zip line. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub. The place has lots of windows and the yard is beautiful. It is also very quiet. We will be back.
