Fantastic views from nearly every window! We appreciated the peaceful, quiet neighborhood. The home had all the amenities we needed and we had a very relaxing time away.

Beautiful, clean, comfortable! The main bed was a bit soft for our liking, but that's just a preference - others may love the softness! This was perfect for us! We even have a child with allergies, and he had no issues here, so we know the cleaning was good, too! Thank you for a great stay!

Cozy stay in Bellingham area with a peek of Whatcom Lake and the sunset.

Great location in Bellingham and close to a day trip to the sound or Cascade National Park.

This was a beautiful treehouse property for our family with six adults, but needs some TLC. The price was right, the host a good communicator and we had a wonderful time! Things to be aware of if renting: *The driveway is extremely steep and there is a two-level, poorly lit wooden staircase leading to the home. * Bedrooms: 1) the beds in two out of the 3 bedrooms are on a platform on the floor, a potential problem for older folks or anyone with bad knees 2) there are no dressers in any bedroom, you will be living out of a suitcase. 3) Hangers were available in only one bedroom and the third bedroom doesn't have a hanging rod at all 4) the door to the smaller bedroom upstairs doesn't close 5) bring a reading lamp if you want to read in bed at night upstairs * Upstairs half bath has a non-functional sink. There is inadequate space to wash your hands. Water quickly fills sink and is slow to drain. *Dining table seats four, no additional chairs were available to pull into the dining room. * Entry way: 1) there is nowhere to hang jackets. In lieu of one they are strewn on the entry way floor. 2) Removing shoes is required upon entering. It would be nice if there was a rubber mat to put shoes on. Otherwise the shoes are heaped with the jackets. * Suggestion is to add a Welcome Packet with notes: favorite places to dine, hiking trails, golf course phone number, etc.

Boho Treehouse

This is my/our second time at this beautiful BnB and it truly feels like a home away from home, on a cloud. This place has everything you need. It’s a cozy retreat for 2, with room for the whole family should you choose to invite them. Great kitchen and beds!

Ideal getaway location

Lovely well appointed home with a warm and inviting feel in a quiet neighborhood. Perfect for a small family or perhaps a few friends. We found the beds comfortable too! To make it extra special our host left us welcome gift basket. Very thoughtful.

Wonderful place

We so enjoyed our time with family in this lovely home nestled in nature. The space was comfortable and it was great to build a fire in the wood stove and play games. The stairs up to the front door were no problem. Checking in and out was a breeze and we felt welcomed by Camila. Access to downtown Bellingham was easy and we loved the view of Whatcom lake on the way. We would recommend this place and would definitely stay here again.

Blissful Getaway

You will find this wonderful home nestled in the mountains with foliage all around, a giant cedar right out the back door and deer roaming the neighborhood. You can even hear the frogs at night. The couch was the perfect level of comfort for relaxing while writing a paper or watching TV. There's a little store at the entrance to the subdivision that has fresh produce if you need it. I found the beds to be very comfortable, and you have extra blankets that are very cozy if you need them. This home requires walking up a bunch of stairs - so book accordingly. I would not book this for my grandma to stay at. The property owners do a good job of describing this, but I wanted to mention it in case it was missed.If you are looking for some nearby outdoor adventures, I recommend the Stimpson Nature Preserve or the hike along the Shores of Lake Whatcom. The Agave restaurant is fantastic, their Mai Tais are delicious!

Really nice place though livability of house lacked a bit

We had a wonderful long weekend in Bellingham and really enjoyed staying in this house. We found that on the surface, this house fit all our needs but when it came down to livability, it lacked in a few amenities, such as a functional coffee maker (there was a piece missing that made the coffee not taste so great), a comfortable couch and papasan chairs, and a tv that worked (or at least instructions on how to use it).

Perfect base to explore the area

The location was perfect as we wanted a base to explore Vancouver for a few days. Sudden Valley has a lot to offer and it’s just short drive from Fair Haven and Bellingham. The house had a fantastic view. The only thing we encountered was that the master bed wasn’t as large as we are used to. We really enjoyed the beaches and the short treks in the forest on the doorstep. The deers kept us entertained. Also The pizza / pasta restaurant down the hill is very good. Anthony’s in Bellingham was also a reasonably priced restaurant to eat in late afternoons.

Hilltop Haven

I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this BnB. The feeling you get when walking in for the first time is worth repeating. You know you have stepped into a peaceful place that just as easily hosts family game night in style. I loved the mattress and slept like a log. Camila, the host, was friendly and quick to respond with any question I had. Really went above and beyond. Wifi worked great! Thank you Camila!

Perfect weekend with friends

This house was everything we needed it to be. I’m on the road frequently and stay at a lot of rental properties, and most of the time the decor is cheap and bland. Not the case here! The interior is very comfortable. Beautiful location with amazing views. About 15 mins from town. There are a few quirks such as doors not closing all the way and not having a place to hang clothes in the closets, but those were easy to deal with. Overall, would recommend.

Pros and suggestions

This home was bright, airy and very clean. The couch was comfortable. The home is in a neighborhood surrounded by trees and a bit of a lake view. It's very quiet. There were lots of towels, and the bed linens were very comfortable. They weren't kidding when they said the bed is low to the ground. Our bed in the first floor bedroom was almost like having the mattress on the floor. We used the woodstove to keep the house at a comfortable temperature. As stated, there are a lot of stairs to get to the front door. The host was easy to reach and replied quickly to our messages. We appreciated that we weren't expected to do a hard cleaning prior to departure. Some suggestions /things to know: There aren't any instructions for the house, like how to turn on the living room heated floors, how to use their woodstove, or how the TV works. There are several coffee makers and something that I think was a milk frother but not sure since there weren't any instructions. I think it would be helpful to have a list of these instructions as well as some practical information like the nearest hospital, the local market, etc. The kitchen has a good assortment of pots and pans but has no aluminum foil, plastic wrap or salt and pepper.

MTB Vacation

Nice location, not the best for mountain biking but you can access trails without a car - loved the grill - lots of space outside on the deck to store bikes out of view, did lock them up just incase. Was a perfect spot for 4 of us to hang out and crash before and after riding all day! Listing is slightly off, there are 3 beds - not 4. But the owner made that clear when I booked so it wasn't a surprise.

Perfect cabin on the lake

This cabin was perfect. The location was easy to find and checkin process was easy. Right when we walked in everything looked exactly like the pictures. The house was clean and spacious. All the windows let in so much natural light. The owners left us firewood to burn in the wood burning fire stove. We couldn’t have asked for a better cabin to stay while visiting Washington. Bellingham is a very cute town with lots of things to do. We went whale watching and hiking in North Cascades during our trip and the cabin was perfect distance in between both. We will definitely be renting this cabin next time we stay.

Quirky House

1. Didn't realize there were 2 flights of decking stairs to reach the front door. Since it was raining, we found the stairs to be a bit mossy and slick. We really had to watch our step. 2. The upstairs half bath sink was interesting. The faucet was so low and close to the sink, you could only wash your fingertips. That sink had an airlock while draining. Very slow to drain then would give a big glug/burb and then drain. 3. We found things that were broken i.e. the main floor bedroom, the window latches were broken off. Unable to secure those windows. Little things were loose on the walls. Shower door would not close properly, leaked water onto floor every time someone showered. Just need someone to come in and pay attention to fix things. 4. Cleaning crew needs to look behind curtains and clean the cobwebs from the corner of many of the windows. 5. The expresso machine is missing the basket. Unable to use it. On the plus side, beautiful view, especially the sunsets. It is a quiet neighborhood and very relaxing. The house was charming and nicely decorated. Everyone said all the beds were comfortable.

Quiet treehouse in Sudden Valley

Camila's treehouse in Sudden Valley is perfect if you want to hunker down with family, make a fire and enjoy the beautiful views. It's a good 20 minutes from downtown so plan your outings accordingly. My only complaint is that the house was FREEZing cold when we arrived (heat was not on) and took some time to warm. Also, there was no binder explaining how to find/run anything in the house (TV, remote, heaters, etc.). Camila was VERY responsive, however, and our time there was magical.
