About this house rental

Nestled in Lummi Island, this charming house for $230 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. This waterfront home at the water's edge on Hale Passage with 180 degree views, looks at majestic Mt. Baker and at night the beautiful lights of Bellingham Bay. Views are spectacular. Watching the sun rise is a 'to be remembered' experience as are the full moons rising. As you walk into this home on the beach with hand-split cedar shakes, you see water everywhere. Bedrooms are furnished with American and English antique furnishings. There is ceramic tile throughout the main floor and radiant heat in some areas. A Jøtul stove provides a special warmth on cool nights. This private home on the beach is tucked against a hillside with easy access to boating, swimming, and beach combing. It is walking distance from the ferry landing--about 1 mile by beach and 1-1/2 miles by road. A regular sight are the seagulls, herons, kingfishers, eagles, seals, sea otter, and deer. At low tide, you have access to an inviting sandy tide flat with clams and crab, tide pools and beach-rock inhabitants. It is a haven to relax; a great place for families and friends. A short 10-minute ferry ride takes you to rural Lummi Island--a small wooded Island. Lummi has a population of about 900 which probably doubles or triples in the summer months. Day trips can be made to Vancouver BC, Seattle or Mt Baker. You are 20 minutes from shopping in Bellingham, Lynden, and the Canadian border. There are ten miles of roads for bikers--mostly following the beaches of the Island. For the beach comber there are many treasures--agates, shells, beach glass. It is a great place to relax and read as well--and to just enjoy the views. Saturdays feature a Saturday market from June through August. You can purchase fresh produce, pastries, and local artists show their wares. There is one restaurants (the Beach Store Cafe) the Island as well as a general grocery store. Two churches on the Island hold services Sunday mornings--Island Chapel meets at the Lummi Island Grange Hall across the street from the post office and about a block north of the ferry dock.

Lovely beach front home with direct access to the rocky, log strewn beach. The home was comfortable and cozy with an electric wood burning stove in the living space. The dining area accommodated 10 for Thanksgiving dinner and the kitchen was large and open. The master bedroom also provided floor to ceiling views of Mt. Baker. The master bathroom has a soaking tub and sink. The toilet is shared by the adjacent bedroom. The shower is in the first floor bathroom which is located off of the living room and must be shared by all three bedrooms. The first floor bedroom also with views of Mt. Baker has a half bath. We didn’t have kids with us so didn’t use the bunk beds on the loft. The front of the house has gorgeous red cedar trees. We parked in the garage (very steep driveway) which was helpful in unloading directly into the house. We loved Lummi Island and it’s was a special relaxing retreat for a long Thanksgiving weekend with family.

We had such a great time! Home was clean and comfortable. Everyone had a blast beach combing and we did multiple hikes in the different Reserves on the island. The views are amazing from the back decks! Only negative was that the electricity went out 2x during two wind storms. Would have been nice to have some emergency candles or flashlights. But I’m hoping this is a rare occurrence so hopefully it won’t happen again. We will definitely come back!

What a lovely place in the Pacific Northwest! We had such beautiful views of Mt Baker +. The mountain and ocean views are excellent. Sunrise spectacular! Herons, Bald Eagles, King Fishers, Loon ,occasional seal, otters, deer and so many ocean creatures to discover at low tide! The house is lovely and comfortable! Wide beautiful deck and landscape. The driveway was a little daunting😳 we brought kayaks and paddle board and Highly recommend bringing your own! We loved this place! If you like nature you’ll love it!

Views from this comfortable cabin are unparalleled. We had s'mores in the firepit, walked the beach at low tide, admired herons, eagles and deer all on the beach, and enjoyed the cottage garden flowers. Hiked Baker preserve, biked the quiet roads, and even played pickleball at the school. Hosts were very accommodating. Hope to return.
