The house was great! Plenty of room for our group, the dogs loved the yard/deck and we enjoyed cooking, puzzling and watching the games, all in the same space! Thank you for a lovely getaway!

Thank you for your kind words. We’re so glad you enjoyed the cozy, clean home and the lakefront setting—there’s nothing better than morning coffee on the patio. We’d love to welcome you back with Gather for another relaxing stay whenever you’re ready.
Glad we had the opportunity to stay in this beautiful home. The area surrounding is so peaceful and there are deer walking around which is lovely to see.The home is very well equiped with everything we needed in the kitchen. Beds are really comfortable, as is the sofa which we spend watching movies on the big TV in the evenings. I had to work while I stayed and the internet speed is very fast. Thankyou for hosting us :D

Beautiful lake home that was clean and comfy. Anything we could have needed was provided. Would absolutely stay here again. All of the pictures in the listing accurately represent this lovely home. It was a little hard to find arriving at night but once we found it there were no issues.

The hosts communicated before and during our stay to ensure we had everything we needed. The view of the lake is beautiful, and the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. The local pizza place, Tino’s, was outstanding and is just a 5 minute drive from the house. We truly enjoyed our time.

Thank you, Brandi! We're so glad you enjoyed the peaceful setting, beautiful lake views, and helpful communication throughout your stay. It’s great to hear you found a local favorite like Tino’s, too! We’d love to welcome you back with Gather for another relaxing getaway.
The house was perfect! My son, his wife, children (ages 6 and 4) and myself stayed at this home. The beds were amazingly comfortable. The house itself was the perfect size for our family. I highly recommend this property as the view is amazing and the home is very comfortable.

My wife, two daughters, and I stayed here while in the area for a wedding. House was perfect for our needs. Comfortable, clean, modern, and spacious. Great kitchen and comfortable beds. Lovely neighborhood, quiet and scenic. We would definitely rent this house again or another property by the owner.

Thank you, Mike, for your kind review! We're delighted to hear that our home was perfect for your family's stay during the wedding. Glad that you enjoyed the quiet and scenic neighborhood. We look forward to welcoming you back and appreciate your interest in staying with us again!
There is a lot to be said about walking into a space that was set up by someone who has thought of things you did not. Beach towels for that beach down the way - check. Big pot for that big pot of soup you hadn't planned on making- check. Minimal tchotchkes to be moved and moved back, silly but a pet peeve - check. In the end this space is a pleasure to walk into and get on with the business of being with family, friends, whoever because after all that is the real reason we gather.

Thank you, Beth! We love how beautifully you captured the feeling of arriving at a space that truly supports connection and ease. It’s wonderful to hear the thoughtful touches made your stay seamless and allowed you to focus on what matters most. We’d be honored to welcome you back with Gather for more meaningful moments together.
We loved the location and view of this property! The photos online of the view of the lake don’t do it justice. It has a large patio that has a great view of the lake. The house is just down the block from the entrance alley down to the lake. By the lake is a stone picnic table and a small little entrance into the water, which has a shallow portion with round rocks and sand and clear water. The kids loved wading in it and collecting pretty rocks. The house itself is a bit on the small side. The main floor has kitchen, living, and small dining area, and 2 bedrooms with queen beds and a bathroom with tub, then there is the downstairs area that has a very large bedroom with the king bed, an extremely small bathroom with shower, and the laundry room. The downstairs bedroom opens up to the outside, under the main part of the patio. Closet space was adequate except for one bedroom upstairs that was occupied by hot water heater and HVAC vent. Everyone just used their suitcases as closets anyway. The house has a heater but no AC. The neighborhood is quiet and gorgeous. We saw deer every day. The kitchen was well equipped. Despite the listing mentioning only sample size toiletries, there was actually plenty of large Costco size shampoo and conditioner, enough toilet paper for a 4 day stay. Only the paper towels were short supply, one roll. We were able to get groceries delivered from the Bellingham Walmart. When we return, I hope to rent this house again.
