The property’s western exposure lets you relax on the spacious porch and private dock in the sun all day long. The lake is off limits to gas motors and is calm and lovely for kayaking, sailing, canoeing, fishing or swimming in its crystal clear water. For motorized water sports, Lake Whatcom and Lake Samish are only minutes away.
The property, conveniently located, is 70 miles north of Seattle; 20 miles north of Mt. Vernon – home of the Tulip Festival; 20 miles south of Bellingham – home of Western Washington University and offers a Farmer’s market and many cultural events; and less than 60 miles from glorious skiing, mountain biking and hiking at Mt. Baker. Right next door, Blanchard Mountain offers hiking and hang gliding along with spectacular views of the sound and farm lands below. Attend the bi-valve festival, pick up local oysters at the Taylor Shellfish Farm and savor fresh baked breads and a fine selection of cheeses and wines from local small businesses in Bow-Edison.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2006
Chris and I were looking for a retirement home and we were in the Belligham area. We love water and we love to ski. Someone suggested we look at this Lake and we fell in love with it right away. We love our home and can't wait to live up there full time but until then we hope others will love it as much as we do.
Why the Owner Chose Bellingham
We live in North Seattle and love that it only takes 1 hour to drive to a little piece of heaven.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Quiet, no motorboats, lots of swimming, hiking, sailing, fishing, skiing at Mt Baker, bicycling.
