This condo was just as shown in pics and on line. Beds were super comfortable and condo was very homey, they had everything we needed. It's a little haven retreat in the woods but close to so many things. Whatcomb lake was walking distance but didn't spend much time there. Jessa and Kevin were great and provided really good information on the area and fun things to do. I would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again if we get up to Bellingham again.

A friend and I came to Bellingham to visit another friend. This 2nd floor unit in a 3-unit "house" was only ten minutes away, but felt like it was in the forest. The street is very quiet and the house is surrounded by trees. The owners were incredibly thoughtful, with great communication and offering fun suggestions of local activities. I would definitely stay here again.

This is the second time we have stayed at the Galbraith Mountain Retreat, and both times it has been perfect for us since our daughter and her family live nearby. Our stays were both very comfortable, and although we didn’t mountain bike, the Galbraith Mountain entrance is nearby. Whatcom Falls Park is also not far and has pretty falls, nice hiking trails, and a couple of playgrounds. The location is convenient and the apartment is well equipped and quite comfortable.

Kevin and Jessa were easy to work with. When we first got there, Kevin walked with us to show where the trails were. The chocolates on the bed were a nice plus. And then the cake for our daughter's graduation was a special plus. Great beds, quiet neighborhood, and easy access to WWU and downtown Bellingham. A great place to stay.

A great place to stay! The owners are super helpful and go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. The place is very comfortable and tastefully furnished. Lots of nice touches. It's a peaceful, quiet spot and we would definitely book it again.

We had a great time staying at Jessa and Kevin’s retreat. They are great, considerate hosts. We were very comfortable in the apartment, appreciated all the local insight and suggestions, were impressed with the gift basket and generosity of supplies. There was plenty of space for the two of us and we could easily access all the area highlights from Fairhaven to Mt. Baker. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here and would stay here again if back in the area.

This location was ideal for us since our daughter lives a few blocks away. She and her 3-year old daughter visited us every day because it was so kid-friendly a spot with more space for play than where they live. We were there during mostly rainy wintry weather, so there was a lot of indoor time. Galbraith Mountain Retreat was an incredibly comfortable place to stay (luxurious beds a major plus!) In more temperate weather we would check out nearby trails for hiking.
