We loved our time at the gingerbread cottage. The property was secluded (perfect for a getaway from the hustle and bustle) and close to trails that take you to the beach. The cottage was well designed and we especially loved the claw foot tub and loft master with a rooftop deck. Oh, and our 7 month old ridgeback puppy loved it as well!

We enjoyed our short stay in the Point Roberts Gingerbread House. The proximity to the forest trails can’t be beat and the forest was amazing. Salt Water cafe had great breakfasts! We’ll be back.

Had a great stay. Pat the owner was very hospitable. We were only slightly disappointed that the cabin wasn’t as private and secluded as we’d imagined it would be. Other cabins are in very close proximity. All in all, lily point was beautiful. Peaceful and amazing scenery and viewpoints just beyond your back yard.

This tiny-house cabin is super cute. Living in such a small footprint has its quirks such as limited counter, storage and cooking space, however the owner has done a very nice job with it and we enjoyed our stay. Point Roberts has a semi-wild and remote feel, yet entertainment and high rise buildings are minutes away. While convenient, the contrast between these two worlds can be simultaneously fascinating and a bit jarring. We appreciated the quiet forest oasis so close to the city. Plenty of hot water, and I slept like a log on the very comfortable bed. Recommended!

Pat's cottage provides superb access to a magical place, the Lily Point Marine Reserve. After hiking all through the said Reserve, a hot shower feels great and Pat's cottage has that in abundance. We enjoyed our stay there, even though we ended up staying in the wrong cottage- our mistake by not paying close attention to Pat's instructions. Luckily, Pat managed our mistake and we enjoyed our four days.

Wonderful place to just relax and decompress. Love the place and are already planning our next visit.

My wife and I stayed for our anniversary with our dog and it was super relaxing! The hiking trails were close by and the town of Pt Roberts is cute and quaint! I would highly recommend if you want some quite time in a naturally beautiful place!

We used this cottage as overflow sleeping for a wedding on Point Roberts and it was perfect! We also used it as a get-away for the Bride & Groom from the hustle and bustle. Thanks again!

This is a second time we stayed at Lily Point and loved every minute of it! The place is majestic and the owner is very supportive in any possible matters. Looking forward to return again!

We stayed for three nights in Gingerbread cottage which was absolutely charming and very comfortable. We had just completed a seven week Motorhome trip from San Francisco in a quite small vehicle. The stay at the cottage was our treat to ourselves before we flew home to the UK. And what a treat to stay in such beautiful surroundings with a lovely big comfortable bed. The bedroom in particular was amazing with big skylights and windows. Lying in bed at night gazing at the tree tops and the occasional glimpse of sky and stars was, as I think Americans often say, truly awesome There was even a double patio door to an upstairs terrace. Whilst sitting on the patio on our first evening a bald eagle flew within about ten feet of us to settle in a branch alongside the cottage. That was a wonderful moment for us and We felt privileged to have seen it. We walked several of the trails, one day taking the one to the beach which was quite challenging for two pensioners but well worth the effort. Another day we walked the 2.5 miles to the restaurant at the marina and enjoyed a great meal. All in all our stay at Gingerbread Cottage finished off our trip perfectly. May even come back again for a longer stay. Thank you to all that make this a special place.

I really enjoyed my stay at Lily Point. The only thing lacking was some linens. There were no washcloths or bathmat in the bathroom. I will definitely make this trip again and will stay again.

Nice place. Cozy cottage. Worth a visit!

Great location. Super cute house with enough space for 2 people. Very peaceful in amongst the trees. There was a great trail that backed the property, leading down to the Lily Point Park. We enjoyed the electric fireplace and the coziness of the cabin. The cabin was as expected, and it was tidy. It could have used a bit of a deeper clean however, that would be our only feedback; We felt like we needed to wash the dishes prior to using them, and the bathroom could have used a clean. The clawfoot tub was neat. Pat checked in with us while we were onsite, and he was friendly. The cabin was easy to find, and we appreciated the "user manual" that was waiting for us when we arrived. Thanks for the surprise chocolates on our bed! We enjoyed living in a cozy space for a weekend, checking out the sights in Point Roberts, aka "Little America".

I arrived a little after dark to the fire going ... got the dogs and car unpacked... very comfy bed — I had my own pillow... trails were easily accessible from the cottage and we were out and about on them and the park beaches everyday... unfortunately not much open in the area — off season, but this looks like it would be great in the summer! Saw lots of birds, a bald eagle feasting by the water, and a sea lion swimming about... a very quiet and restful time.. cottage had everything we needed..

This stay was incredible. We had two people and a dog for a 3-night stay. The property is beautiful and unique. It was a fantastic experience to sit in front of the fireplace indoors and read. This was the closest you can get to being in the woods while still having a fantastic bathroom, heated floors, a kitchen with a propane stove, and the most comfortable bed you can imagine. There are windows over the bed that show the trees. Each morning we woke up to rain and saw maginificent cedar trees, and we heard eagles chatting above us. Over the course of a 3 day stay, we saw over 8 bald eagles. Absolutely incredible experience. We also took our dog down to the beach each day, which was a lovely short hike. We took a short drive up to Vancouver, BC and had a delicious dinner. I would come back or recommend this place to anyone.

Great location a short walk away from a beautiful beach. The cabin heats up quickly and is the perfect size for a weekend getaway for two.

I don't think I'm picky, just have two requirements really, clean and secure, it was neither. I was pretty disappointed, but I didn't want to write a negative review until I read the previous reviews about the same issues I had, and it's been going on along time. Now I am convinced the homeowner's are lazy and don't care about the guests. The cobwebs and dirt that is everywhere have been there along time. The front door handle that falls off when you open the door has been in need of repair for along time. How about a deadbolt? The bathroom toilet and behind were disgusting. The place in a shabin (shed/cabin), in need of a deep clean and some tlc.

Beautiful setting in the woods. Charming cottage and quiet ! Great to be able to do our own cooking onsite. Enjoyed having the hiking trail to the beach right behind the cabins. Friendly folks and great weather. We hope to return very soon. Loved the bathtub and the sinks, and of course the stained glass windows. We came for one night but ended up staying for two.

We booked the Serenity cottage for our trip to Point Roberts. The design of the cottage is great, proximity to Lily Point Marine Park wonderful--and Pat was very helpful thru the reservation process. That is where the praises end. We had read about cobwebs and cleanliness issues--so came with cleaning wipes "just in case". We were greeted by a large black ant in the BR--and one crawling along the clawfoot tub. Then began really looking around--and things were downright dirty. Stove had dust and food spills--microwave covered with fingerprints and food crumbs and spills inside. Oven had burned on food inside. Bath sink had toothpaste stuck to the tile surround. Tub was "greasy" and had debris in it. And no cleaning supplies anywhere--so used the cleaning wipes we brought and my bath salts as scrub to go over the place. As we cleaned we continued to kill more and more ants--EVERYWHERE--even one crawling our of the French press when we went to make coffee!! By morning--when we awoke to find an ant crawling along the top of the bed--and 2 more heading down the wall toward our pillows--we'd had enough. Packed up and left--even though we had booked for 3 nights. Pat has some major issues regarding the ant problem--but using the excuse of "living in the forest" has nothing to do with the condition we found the cabin in. It's just laziness. Cleaning takes effort--that's all. The cottage is very nice--and it's sad that more attention to guests comfort is not addressed. Anyone reserving would be smart to ask about these issues in advance.

Great location. Pet friendly. Quaint.

Pat graciously accommodated us with no notice. We were welcomed by a lit fireplace and a warm handshake. The cottage met all of our needs, even if the shower/toilet was a little different...the water was warm. For those grumps who complained about a few cobwebs: I guess they just don't realise the challenge of living in the forest. They add to the charm and trap the mozzies! We enjoyed the chimnea whilst playing backgammon, and Pat even entertained us with his colorful outbursts of joyful emotion whilst he built his other cabin. Made us feel normal. Great price point. Fabulous trail to Lily Point. Great bird life. We will be back. Next time, Lesley...we challenge you to a game of backgammon! Bring Pat, if he aint still workin' on Gingerbread 2.

Having grown up in a 3rd world country I was shocked that this was worse than any place we ever stayed at in said country. I didn't expect 5 star hotel clean but I didn't expect cobwebs on the ceilings or a bathroom that barely fit my shoulders in a (estimated) 2.5 foot by 5 foot shower/toilet. I also didn't expect to have to brush my teeth in the kitchen sink or to have to shave blindly in said sink without a mirror. No toilet paper was just the finishing touch. I chose not to shower and just left to stay at a hotel in Canada. I really don't expect much in a cottage on Point Roberts but this didn't even meet my much reduced expectation.

Everything is as described, and the owner thoughtfully includes things like towels for showers, and a French press for making coffee. The best part of our stay was the amazing hiking trails to the beach that left from our front door. So many eagles! The restaurant at the marina is delicious if you don't want to cook. I wish the water had been a bit hotter, but there was plenty of it. Comfy and cozy. We brought our three small dogs and the little cabin fit us just fine. That couch in the living room could be replaced with a sturdier sofa bed as it wasn't so comfy for reading while sitting. I am sure the place is glorious in the summer, but it was perfectly peaceful and wonderful for us in December.

My boyfriend and I went to teh Gingerbread Cottage for a Pre-Christmas getaway as we wern't going to be able to spend the Holidays together. This adorable cozy little cottage was the perfect quiet time alone together cuddled up on the couch and making meals together. We probably went on the coldest weekend so far this winter season so my only suggestion is if you tend to get cold like me be sure to bring warm socks or slippers! Great trails and seclusion from the hustle bustle of every day life, other reviews mentioned christmas decorations which would have been nice but didn't deter us from making a gingerbread house and having some rum and egg nog. Overall had a really nice time, thank you for allowing others to enjoy Point Roberts.

Thanks for a wonderful stay in your cottage. We enjoyed the Lily Point Trails and beach and were greeted by six bald eagles!. I was a perfect start to our vacation.. I think we managed to explore every nook and cranny of Pt. Roberts and hope to be back again.
