With an expansive dock and boat slip, 2 SUPs + needed accessories, 4 kayaks + needed accessories, 6 bicycles + helmets and a spacious sandy beach, Lake Samish is just beyond the front door.

About Sarah Hall
The property has been in the family since the early 1960's, it was one of the first homes built on the lake.
Sarah Hall purchased this House in 2015
Why Sarah Hall chose Bellingham
Peace and tranquility describes what I find most appealing about the setting. Looking out over the shimmering lake simply can't be beat. There is a vast array of birds including resident Eagles and cranes as well a beaver or two just down Friday Creek. A silky quiet kayak ride down the creek or bike round around the lake are special events we do most every time up in early summer. Take the SUPs for an evening paddle is a favorite among all.
What makes this House unique
We offer amenities for all ages both for both inside and outside: games, cards, toys, train sets, books, puzzles, horseshoes, beach toys, and the lawn game Kubb.

Beautiful and relaxing
I would recommend this property to anyone. Very relaxing and many things to do. We had a memorable family vacation and plan to do this again. The house is clean and has all items you may want and many activities: kayaks, paddle boards, horse shoe pits, dock, kids closet, and many other activities.
Amazing Lake House!
I was part of a group of 6 people that went to enjoy the lake and this house was perfect! Plenty of space for all of us and we really enjoyed being able to use the house kayaks and paddle boards. Definitely would come back in the future.
Spacious home with beautiful lake front view
We enjoyed staying at Seven Cedars. The house is very clean and well stocked with everything one might need. It is obvious the owners are very thoughtful and take pride in their home.
We would not hesitate to rent this house again.
Beautiful spot on Sammish Lake
The location was ideal and the house was cozy and well-stocked. Bikes, kayaks, and paddle boards available for use, as well as everything you'd need for a comfortable stay. The house is older but clean, and the owner was extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back!
Great property!
Awesome place, house is fully equipped, lanscape is beatiful. Ideal for family with children, a lot of fun and details for getting kids entertained. Views of the lake are fantastic, we really enjoyed our easter weekend at Seven Cedars, I’d love to be back soon!
