Map & Owner's Profile
"Emerald Lake Chalet" - Lakefront Retreat
Year Purchased: 1979
Why the Owner Chose Bellingham
This property is one of a kind. Swimming and fishing at the door. A great place for children of all ages. There's a cabin for the children to do their own thing, but still close to family.
The Unique Benefits at this House
My family has had property on Emerald Lake since 1960. It's been a great retreat for my six children and grandchildren as well as our friends. Bellingham is minutes away where many activities, shopping and gourmet restaurants add to the wonderful lake setting apart from city life.

I'm passionate in what I'm doing with the Emerald Lake Chalet.
When I read guest comments that they have enjoyed their stay and want to come back,
that's very rewarding.

Hello Rosetta, Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home with us. We appreciate your kindness, allowing us to check in earlier. I especially loved the fireplace and how we enjoyed each others' company around it. It was surreal. It was also the first time the kids saw a squirrel and it greeted us every morning. The twins were born here nine years ago and we moved away when they were just two years old. But they will remember your home, as well as their birthplace, as a special place always. Thank you, V.G. Aiea, Hawaii

We wanted to thank you for the wonderful time we had at your house on Toad Lake. We spent a great deal of time swimming, kayaking, and enjoying the lake. We saw a bald eagle during the day and the Milky Way at night. The house was so well prepared. It had everything one could possibly need (such as life preservers for kids). We didn't get an opportunity to leave a note in the guest book, but wanted to let you know we enjoyed it.

Beautiful cabin. We truly enjoyed staying here for the week. Amazing view and landscape. A perfect getaway from the big cities of California. As the days went on we got better and better at making a fire. Another week and we would have had it down! Thank you very much for your hospitality. We went "home" each night because it truly felt like a home and not a temporary stay. Tthe banada bread was delicious! We appreciate all you have done!! Thank you very much! Jenn and Denise

My husband and I stayed for 15 nights in the apartment in October 2010. We loved Emerald Lake and Bellingham in general. The views are much more impressive than in the photos. And we enjoyed doing business with the owner. The apartment is comfy and cozy, secluded yet close to all conveniences. Highly recommend Chuckanut drive, scenic drive to Mt. Baker, Stanley Park in Vancouver, BC, Lake Padden, ferry to San Juan Islands, Boulevard Park, Bellingham Farmer's Market, Whatcom Falls Park and relaxing at this apartment. Autumn is a great time to visit! Thanks Rosetta!
Owner response:Hello Lori Thank you for your wonderful comments pertaining to your stay at Emerald Lake. Our wish for you and your family in the coming year and for the holidays is health, joy and peace. Blessings Rosetta

This was a beautiful property. The location was as described and the photos reflect the appearance and amenities, although a photo can't do justice to the real beauty of the surroundings! The property was clean and well-maintaned. There were lots of "extras" that really made us feel at home. The owner was extremely gracious, knowledgeable, and helpful. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we would recommend this property!
Owner response:It's my pleasure to go the extra mile for my guests. I want them to have a memorable retreat from the busy life styles so many have and to be able to enjoy their families surrounded by nature, the conveniences of home, the fun and quiet Emerald Lake has to offer.
Recommended for:Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with young children, romantic getaway.

"We had a wonderful vacation at your lake house, enjoying the house itself, the lake, and our family. We had everything we needed and also enjoyed cooking meals together there. It was so nice to be just 10 minutes from our family and be in such a beautiful setting. We barbequed on the deck, watched bald eagles hunting, enjoyed fishermen catching trout, and were a few feet away from the tamest deer we have ever experienced, including a mother deer and her fawn. We will definitely be back for a visit later this year." Best regards, Wayne
