About this property

Rented by owner, no added on agent fees.
Recently updated home in Whatcom County, Washington with 2 bedrooms (queen beds), 2 full bathrooms, kitchen, dining room, big screen tv, washer & dryer. Furnished with bedding, towels, cooking utensils, dishes, pots and pans, coffee pot, blender, toaster, hair dryer, shampoos, soaps, laundry supplies, etc. Large deck including propane BBQ grill, deck chairs, and table with 4 chairs overlooking the golf course and sweeping views of Mt. Baker and the San Juan Islands.

We provide the essentials for your entire stay - paper towels, laundry supplies, dish soap, cleaning supplies, toilet paper, garbage bags, etc. You should not have to go to a store for those types of items.

Located for easy access: Silver Reef Casino for entertainment, getting pampered at the spa, and dining at their many restaurants, including their award winning restaurant The Steakhouse (2 miles); Bellingham Airport (11 miles); Western Washington University (20 mins.); Mt. Baker for world class skiing, snowboarding, hiking, and more (1.25 hours); San Juan Islands for fishing, crabbing, and exploring (20 min. trip from Sandy Point Marina where you can launch your boat); and Canada (25 mins. north on I-5 corridor to the border). Also located near the refineries for short-term housing while working turnarounds.

Good location for the annual Sea to Ski race from Mt Baker to Bellingham Bay, whether participating or observing.

Close to the ferry to Lummi Island where the Willows restaurant is located, run by award winning chef, Blaine Wetzel.

The golf course is a 9 hole course open to the public with a $10 fee and access is steps away from the house. Small playground near the clubhouse. Ideal place for out-of-town guests if you do not have room for them. Save money over a hotel as you can do your own cooking.

Bring your boat and launch at the Marina minutes away and come home to relax in the evenings instead of trying to find dock space or a buoy in the busy summer months. Many good walking beaches nearby.

Eagle watching: the road from the house to the casino follows the Red River, you can often spot bald eagles in the trees next to the road. Sometimes the eagles harass the ducks that are on the golf course in front of the house. Makes for a front row seat to see bald eagles in their natural habitat.

If the timing is right, and we are not working or out of town, we would be happy to stock the house before your arrival, if you provide a grocery, beer, wine or alcohol list.

Comfortable, quiet, great view

My adult son and I needed a comfy place between Seattle and Canada to meet my cousin and his wife for a few days. One requirement was parking for a large camper and truck. Another was a well-stocked kitechen (we like to cook). This home had everything we needed, and more. The large, furnished deck overlooks a quiet golf course with water view beyond, tbe perfect spot to drink coffee in the morning and relax in the evening. The large kitchen was wonderful for group cooking. The dishwasher was most welcome. Don't be put off by the run-down homes on the route here: the homes in this rural subdivision are well-maintained. Neighbors are friendly and quiet.

Didn’t want to leave!

The house was clean, the view exceptional, and the description was accurate. The house was conveniently located - in a secluded neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle, but still close to amenities/attractions. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen amenities were plentiful. The welcome basket was an added bonus. Jakki was responsive and helpful. After our 10 day stay, we did not want to leave her house and would not hesitate to stay there again!

Beautiful place

The house is comfortable, beautiful views, in a quiet neighborhood, the easiest check in and check out requirements and not a bad drive to Mount Baker. If you are looking for a good restaurant Anthony’s is the best and only 20 minutes away.

About the host

Hosted by Jakki Kriener-Amsberry

Why they chose this property

We bought this house as a long-term rental but the last time it became vacant we decided we loved staying there even though our home is only 20 minutes away. We love the views, the golf course, and the access to the islands for fishing and crabbing for those delicious dungeness crabs. We have tried to decorate it and stock it so that you will feel at home and will have everything that you need for a relaxing vacation. It is a little slice of heaven in an area with numerous activities and adventures and a booming restaurant, distillery and brewing community.
