Just as described :)

This place is absolutely gorgeous. Super clean, very spacious, everything available to make your stay a good one. Location is in a beautiful neighborhood and neighbor to the right was extremely nosy and intrusive, but the VRBO host could not have been nicer to work with. Responded quickly and was very accommodating in every way. Will definitely return, just beautiful and every so comfy.

Beautiful Lake Home on Whatcom lake

The home was perfect for our family stay in Bellingham. The kitchen was well stock with cooking utensils and pans. There was 2 living rooms so the 2 children could have there own tv. 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Beautiful balconys with nice comfortable furniture. The home was very clean. I would highly recommend this home for families.

Excellent home near Lake Whatcom

We moved our daughter into an apartment near WWU and this was the perfect place just outside town for us. House is well equipped and as listed, located in a quiet neighborhood very near Lake Whatcom and the golf course, owner’s communication was great, and is just 20 min from WWU and downtown Bellingham. Highly recommend and we look forward to staying here again when we come up visit.

Perfect house for a family weekend

We rented the house for my daughter’s graduation weekend at WWU. It is even better than the pictures. With the decks and the downstairs, there’s plenty of room for people to mingle. The kitchen was well-equipped. There were deer everywhere. It’s a short walk to the shore. Very happy with our experience!

Wonderful time at this property on Whatcom Lake

This property is absolutely beautiful and even more beautiful than the photos can illustrate. My three teenaged children and I stayed here for a week and it was perfect for us. It is clean, really nicely decorated and everything we needed was here. The owners are friendly and responsive and the location is gorgeous. We spent days at the lake, but also hiked in the Chukanut Mountains and spent time at Whatcom Waterfalls park, where we hiked and swam. We will definitely come back!

Great house on the lake

We had a great stay on the lake. Sharon was very helpful through all stages from booking until we checked-out. It is a lovely house with great outdoor space on two decks. We had our family with ages 22 to 80, and we all enjoyed it. The marina is just a short walk as well as a pretty park on the shore. The swim beach is a short drive away. We would definitely try to return to this house for future trips.

Wonderfully appointed home in Sudden Valley

This was a wonderful property! From 4 bedrooms, to a fully stocked kitchen, to a great location just down the street from Sofield Park in Gate 1; I can't wait to stay here again! Sharon was very communicative, and even left a hand-written note for check-in. Very easy to access the home via keyless entry. Highly recommend for your next stay in Sudden Valley!

Bellingham home

We were in town for just a few days for a family wedding. There were two couples and two singles in our group, so the four bedroom, three bath home was perfect. The neighborhood is a very nice lakeside property about 15 minutes from downtown Bellingham and had all the amenities we wanted and then some. The deer roaming the neighborhood was an added bonus. The home was well designed, and the furnishings were great. We couldn't have been more pleased with the accommodations.

Fantastic stay! The house was perfect for our family of 7. Bedroom, bath, living area downstairs and large living/dining area, well equipped kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 2 large decks upstairs, complete with plentiful beautiful deck furniture and 2 fire pits. Property is extremely well maintained and very clean. Owners were particularly responsive to questions and very helpful. It didn't hurt that the weather was Fantastic, too. This was The Nicest VRBO we've ever stayed in and would Definitely stay here again when back in Bellingham !

About the host

Hosted by Sharon and Shelly

Host profile image
This is our family's beautiful vacation home that we unfortunately don't find enough time to enjoy. This year we decided to selectively rent out our cottage so other family's can hopefully appreciate our warm and comfortable summer home and beautiful Lake Whatcom. We live a short distance away so we always keep our home and yard clean and very well maintained. If you think this might be your next Spring, Summer, or Fall vacation rental we'd be happy to tell you more about our home, the great amenities around Sudden Valley and beautiful Lake Whatcom.

Why they chose this property

If you like cottage life, a great beach, a beautiful golf course, or boating around Lake Whatcom, then our home is right for you! Since we bought the property in 2009 we have completely renovated our summer house, inside and out, along with landscaping the property. You'll love the huge front and back decks, so you can chase the sun, or avoid it, depending on your preference. Our front deck is the ideal place to be late afternoons and evenings with a gas-burning fire pit and tons of comfy seating. On the back deck you'll find two propane bbq's and a patio area that seats 8 or more, a great place to enjoy a summer meal!

What makes this property unique

Fantastic lake country living with two huge front and back decks, our summer home gives you the best of Lake Whatcom. We are just across the street from the lake and a great public beach and a short drive or walk to the clubhouse at the Sudden Valley golf course. The marina is only a block away so our home is perfect if you plan to do some boating. Drop us a line and we'd be happy to tell you more!
