We absolutely love this beautiful home! It is perfect for a big family as it is kid friendly with plenty of toys to keep the little ones busy and very comfortable for all. I would choose to stay here again and again. Close to down town and all the things we needed in a lovely quiet neighborhood. I appreciated the well equipped kitchen and the open dining area. We were running late with our breakfast and the manager was so kind to not have us rush out the door.Thanks for being amazing.

The location was in a great neighborhood and close to our family in the area. The house was clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to make some great meals. This kitchen was stocked with utensils, pots and pans, etc better than many other places that we have stayed. It worked well for us to have the TV upstairs, so that the non-TV watching group could have a conversation or do some work. This was a family vacation, but a couple of the family members were doing some work and the internet, desk in the kitchen worked great for them. We had a couple of glitches, but the local contacts were really responsive and we got things resolved pretty quickly, especially since it was Dec 22 when we arrived. The house is charming with lots of character. We really enjoyed our stay.

I've now stayed here multiple times and each time the staff has been super attentive and accommodating. The house has been a great place to get together with friends for a weekend in Bellingham. We keep discovering great little places real close to the house and enjoy the walk to the main downtown area. House is always a treat to stay at. Thank you.

We were a group of 5 good friends in town for a special occasion. This house could not have been better! Spacious; comfortable beds; really clean; and one of the best-equipped kitchens I've ever had in a vacation rental home. Add to that the lovely craftsman design and tasteful artwork, and it adds up to a wonderful home that I would gladly rent again.

Great house in a great location
This house was the perfect place for a few friends to gather for a nice weekend. The house was clean and fit the description perfectly. It is perfectly located in a neighborhood near a few breweries and places to eat. We all like to walk, so walking to the grocery or downtown was not a problem. We had a small issue with the door code working when we first got there and the property manager was immediately available to help us start our friend weekend easily. We are looking forward to having another visit here in the future.

Beautiful home with lots of amenities
Well-stocked kitchen, comfortable home with lots of amenities like tissues (Kleenex) and toiletries and plenty of towels. No tv downstairs if that is important to you. One main tv upstairs, although there is one setup in a closet area as a gaming area. If you have someone in your party who wants to game, that would be a plus. One shower upstairs, both upstairs and downstairs bathrooms have a tub. Loved the artwork and craftsman style. Quiet neighborhood, felt very safe. Of the three bedrooms, one is clearly setup for children with shorter twin beds and a Lego table, and isn’t suitable for most adults given the bed length. The trash cans are in the alley past the backyard, which meant tromping through a muddy yard and fighting the gate to open up to access the cans. That and the heat defaulting to the 50’s were our only negatives. We’ve stayed in a lot of VRBO’s and this was one that made the list of ones we would use again. Aesthetically (furnishings and artwork) probably the best we’ve stayed in. We were visiting our son for Christmas and made light use of the kitchen, but this house would be very high on my list if I wanted a place with a stocked kitchen to bake or cook.

Our stay went well. The only thing I would suggest is to have a shower/personal shower in main floor bathroom.
Otherwise , it was lovely and yes, very kid friendly!
