About this property

Waterfront Beach House close to everything!

*PLEASE NOTE* ***This years’ annual dry dock has been announced and it will be APRIL 26th-MAY11th. This means we will have a pedestrian only ferry during this time. Our cottage is a short walk to the ferry so you’re welcome to park on the mainland and walk across, but it inhibits your ability to drive on for your stay. ***This charming, historic, and beautifully appointed beachfront house features two bedrooms (one room with an attached bath has a Queen bed and another room with a single bed) and sleeps three. The cottage is stocked with everything you will need for an easy getaway. Enjoy the large deck overlooking the breathtaking views of Mt. Baker and the Sisters, watch the ferry, the Whatcom Chief, sail back and forth, take a soak in the deep tub, read by the fireplace, put your kayak in the water, and adventure, or go for a bike ride or hike. You will find yourself within walking distance of the local Beach Store Cafe (just across the street but please check the website to see hours of operation as they are limited), and the local grocery store. Conveniently located only a five-minute walk to the ferry and on the picturesque 7-mile loop which is great for walking and bike riding. Despite the proximity to Vancouver BC and Seattle, Lummi Island feels like it is a 'world away'. The Beach House was built in 1933 and has a long history on Lummi Island, and at one time served as the local library. With a complete Sunset Magazine-worthy remodel couldn't be sweeter.

A perfect place to stay! We loved the coziness and the views, and it was ideal for lazy mornings and recuperating after hiking. Also great that it was so close to the ferry. It was our first visit to Lummi and we'll definitely be back. Communication was terrific!

This cottage gives you a real cottage experience with beautiful views from the back porch. Watching the ferry go back and forth and listening to the seagulls as you enjoy the backdrop of snow covered Mt Baker. Very relaxing few days.

Peaceful, quiet, tranquil, charming and great view! Would definitely stay again. A few light bulbs need to be replaced and some dusting needs to be done, but I’m a little ocd when it comes to cleaning!

About the host

Hosted by Angie Dixon

Colleen McCrory and Angie Dixon, long-term residents of Lummi Island, and friends, became the proud new owners of the Beach House in December of 2014. This delightful home with its up-close water views, location, place in the island's history and unique style was a particular joy and opportunity for them, as well as their families. They look forward to sharing the Beach House and this wonderful community and island with you. The peace, abundance of nature and outdoor adventures here on Lummi Island are unbeatable.

Why they chose this property

We both love living here and being a part of the island and were excited to be able to invest in such a beautiful property.

What makes this property unique

This property has the best of both convenience to island locations like the Beach Store Cafe, the library, store, school and ferry and privacy and stunning views, and waterfront.
