About this property
Family Beach House With Beautiful Views, Huge Yard, Mooring Buoy, And Kayaking
Are you looking for a serene waterfront setting on a picturesque island in the San Juan Islands that's also close to the mainland? Do you want to wake up to beautiful ocean views with a private beach to explore tidepools and watch the local wildlife? Come and stay at the “Crabbin’ Cottage” for a great romantic getaway or vacation with the family.
Our house is on a 3/4 acre waterfront lot with over 80’ of private waterfront. Lummi Island is the most accessible of the San Juans, and our house is a short bike ride away from the ferry, the Islander Store, and the Beach Store Cafe. Feel free to launch your boat a short drive down the road and use our mooring buoy in front of the house. In addition, it's a great spot for kayaking, biking, hiking, and beachcombing.
The house is set up with an open kitchen that includes stainless appliances. There are two fireplaces (firewood is NOT provided) and a large deck to watch local boats and the Alaskan Ferry as you sip a hot cup of coffee or a glass of wine. There are 2 bedrooms with queen-sized beds. In addition, we have a spacious daylight basement which includes a wet bar and allows accommodations for up to four more people with a bunk bed and couch.
This cozy house is equipped for both a short or long stay. We have a large, Smart TV with many movies to choose from, as well as games and books available for entertainment. Our hope is that our house will provide a place for you to make amazing memories with loved ones.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host
Hosted by Robb and Marea
Robb and I (Marea) have had the privilege of owning this beautiful, waterfront cottage since 2012 while we were living and working overseas. As international teachers, we came home to Whatcom County each summer, and we wanted our own place to "call home" that we could also vrbo/airbnb during the many months we were not home. This place was PERFECT for our hopes/dreams and lifestyle! In 2020, we moved back to Whatcom County to be near Marea's aging parents. Though we have the typical busy American lifestyle juggling work and family once again, we occasionally get to enjoy The Crabbin' Cottage on scenic, serene Lummi Island. We feel so blessed to still be able to own it, and we are thankful our airbnb/vrbo guests get to come enjoy it, as well.
Why they chose this property
Lummi Island is an amazing place to relax on the Puget Sound. Enjoy tidepools, campfires, and the fresh smell of the ocean. Well behaved dogs are welcome.
What makes this property unique
Mooring buoy, large back lawn/yard overlooking the ocean, stairs to private tidepools/beach
