Whatcom County vacation rentals

WOW! Like many have written, this is a jewel of a place. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to experience it (as I can imagine it's going to become harder to book as more people find out about it :) This is one of the most magical places I've been. And it's thanks to the creativity and passion Christopher and his wife have poured into it. Every detail inside and out you can feel is a labor of love, and from the moment I arrived I felt so welcomed into this healing sanctuary. Christopher went above and beyond, walking me through the property so that I would know how everything worked before giving me privacy to enjoy it to the fullest. I could go on and on about how beautiful it is: the cozy cabin, the bathroom through whose ceiling you look up into the big trees, the handcrafted sauna and the hot tub overlooking a pond lit up with twinkling lights. Being there felt like visiting another world that invited me to deeply rest, slow down, and dream again. It rejuvenated my soul.

This was the perfect destination for our Vancouver Island exploration. We went directly to the house from the Port Angeles to Vancouver ferry. There were zero issues with us arriving late from the ferry, and we were able to find the and get inside without any problem. The home put us right at the doorstep of all the adventures and beauty the island had to offer. The host offered enticing local destinations based on my travel goals. The home was spotless and peaceful. There was a nice open space with the living and large kitchen, allowing me to enjoy the social time with my adult daughter and nephew. You do have to go up a set of stairs to access the location, so be aware if you have mobility issues. There was a lovely deck as well to enjoy and checkout was very easy. Overall, just a wonderful experience with the location and hospitality, and I fully recommend for island travel.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Marc’s place! The house exceeded all of our expectations and is even more beautiful in person than in the photos. The location is incredibly peaceful and private, while still being very convenient and close to the main road (2 minutes). The house has everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. We really enjoyed the hot tub and grill, and the kitchen was fully equipped with plenty of cookware, a large refrigerator, dishwasher, coffee maker, and a spacious dining table. Everything was exceptionally clean, cozy, and comfortable, from the bathroom to the sofas and beds. You can tell that a lot of thought and care went into making this home a place where guests can simply arrive, relax, and enjoy themselves. We would absolutely love to stay here again. Our experience at Marc’s place exceeded every expectation. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful getaway in Washington State!

My sister and I were fortunate enough to stumble across this little gem when looking for a place to stay near the areas we planned to explore and hike. The entire cabin was very new looking and extremely clean. The kitchen was fully stocked, the bathrooms were equipped with shampoo, conditioner, soap, makeup remover and soft towels. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms had plenty of closet space and storage for our clothing. There is a fireplace and heated floors although we didn’t use either. There were a couple very plush blankets to wrap up in in the evenings which we really enjoyed. There is a washer and dryer available and also a hot tub out back. We saw there were roasting sticks to be used at the firepit, when fires are allowed, and also a grill. There are also some outdoor games available. Some snacks, drinks and a bottle of wine were in the fridge when we arrived as well. There were so many thoughtful touches, it would be hard to list them all. Kate was very pleasant to communicate with and very quick with replies. This cabin is a gem and one we are already making plans to return to. We highly recommend it!

Very spacious house in a super quiet area. The location is awesome—it’s right on the main bike trail that goes straight into town, and just a short drive to a bunch of great trailheads. Check-in was easy and the host was great to deal with. Would definitely stay again!

Great hosts, really nice and helpful, very quick with communication. The location is far from downtown but not that far (12 min. drive most days), and it's close enough to other places to go with restaurants and stores, etc. The space is clean and a good size. Quiet neighborhood, which is great. The walls are supposed to be sound-proofed, but you still very clearly hear talking and laughing through them. But not very often and never late. Also, this is only noticed in the living room, not in the bedroom at all. I have a lot of sensitivity to noise in the many places where I stay but I would stay here again for sure.

I spent a lovely week at Lesley's. The location was perfect for me and the tiny home had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. Lesley was a great host.
