We had a fantastic stay! The house had everything we needed and the kids loved all the toys and games. Great location close to great restaurants and breweries.

Great place as a base in Bellingham. 30 min walk from downtown and the best breweries. Easy place for us to hang out and talk in

Perfect place to gather!

This house was the perfect place for a few friends to gather for a nice weekend. The house was clean and fit the description perfectly. It is perfectly located in a neighborhood near a few breweries and places to eat. We all like to walk, so walking to the grocery or downtown was not a problem. We had a small issue with the door code working when we first got there and the property manager was immediately available to help us start our friend weekend easily. We are looking forward to having another visit here in the future.

Apr 12, 2024 Amazing Place This was an amazing place to stay in Bellingham. We were here with three elementary school kiddos and the house is perfect for that. Fun old-school video games. Lots of toys upstairs. The kitchen is really well equipped with all the cooking supplies you could ever need, making it a great place to stay for a longer stay. We were only there three nights so didn't cook a ton but it would have been really easy to do so. Very clean. Awesome neighborhood close to everything in town. If we visit again we'll definitely stay here. Jeff
Apr 12, 2024 Very Responsive Gather Vacation's house was great! A cozy place in an excellent location. Gather Vacations were also very responsive hosts. Bryce
Apr 12, 2024 Recommended We really enjoyed the house as it had everything we needed and was very cozy. Our group was very pleased with the comfortable beds, cozy furniture and lots of natural light. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it for any families looking for somewhere to stay in Bellingham. McGregor
Apr 12, 2024 Wonderful home for a family stay Such a cozy and comfortable home near all the conveniences. Walk to the bay, coffee shop, or pizza place! Perfect for our family to get about and see Bellingham while having ample relaxing time. Loved all the books and toys for the kids! Susan A.
Apr 12, 2024 Amazing house, fit our needs perfectly! We came for my daughter's wedding, so there was quite a group! We all enjoyed it very much, the kitchen was huge and well equipped which was very important to us! Thanks again for letting us be your first rental! 💕 Brenda V.

Jun 05, 2024 Our stay went well. The only thing I would suggest is to have a shower/personal shower in main floor bathroom. Otherwise , it was lovely and yes, very kid friendly! Thank you Nancy Holloway

Oct 22, 2024 We enjoyed our stay as college roommates from the late 80s!!! A wonderful reunion with dear friends. The place was perfect for our crew! Vanessa Paskill
Oct 08, 2024 What a wonderful home, the kitchen was fully stocked with all equipment you could need, the space was immaculate and cozy, and the location was very central within walking distance to restaurants, breweries, and coffee shops. Jessica was quick to respond and very helpful, my family and I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Mirabelle Lemieux

Apr 07, 2024 A return visit to bellingham after years of absence. The location was great with coffee and beer an easy walk. House was very clean and kitchen was one of the best stocked of our many Airbnb stays which surprised because some of the generic checkin info made us even bring extra toilet paper. Beds were super comfy and the two 3 nearly 4 year olds stayed busy for three days with the books,games and toys in the house. A bit strange for a house that sleeps 8 that there are only 4 dining chairs. We never spent any time in the backyard but imagine in the summer it is quite inviting. Not so much in early April. Would suggest instructions in binder on operating the thermostat. Julie Missal

Oct 23, 2023 This house worked perfectly for our weekend visit. The spacious kitchen was well stocked and the house had plenty of space. It was easy to get to downtown and the university from our location. Kathy Stice
Dec 07, 2024 A great place with a very well-stocked kitchen. Beds were really comfortable. A wonderful place to stay! Lynn Shemanski
Dec 08, 2024 The house was very clean, tidy and had anything that you needed in terms of cooking spices, etc. Very clean comfortable home that we enjoyed very much. Would highly recommend. Deborah Martelluzzi
Jan 04, 2025 Well-stocked kitchen, comfortable home with lots of amenities like tissues (Kleenex) and toiletries and plenty of towels. No tv downstairs if that is important to you. One main tv upstairs, although there is one setup in a closet area as a gaming area. If you have someone in your party who wants to game, that would be a plus. One shower upstairs, both upstairs and downstairs bathrooms have a tub. Loved the artwork and craftsman style. Quiet neighborhood, felt very safe. Of the three bedrooms, one is clearly setup for children with shorter twin beds and a Lego table, and isn’t suitable for most adults given the bed length. The trash cans are in the alley past the backyard, which meant tromping through a muddy yard and fighting the gate to open up to access the cans. That and the heat defaulting to the 50’s were our only negatives. We’ve stayed in a lot of VRBO’s and this was one that made the list of ones we would use again. Aesthetically (furnishings and artwork) probably the best we’ve stayed in. We were visiting our son for Christmas and made light use of the kitchen, but this house would be very high on my list if I wanted a place with a stocked kitchen to bake or cook. Melanie Jones
Jan 20, 2025 We absolutely loved our stay in Bellingham. The house was the perfect size with plenty of beds for our girls trip and 2003 WWU Alumni reunion. Our host Jessica was quick to respond to our questions and getting into the house was very easy. Great location too! Overall a wonderful stay. Jessica J
Jan 26, 2025 Incredibly clean and comfortable! Location was perfect for having access to town as well as groceries. A nice neighborhood with road side parking for our three vehicles. The house was spacious. Kitchen well stocked and the beds were so comfortable. We would have enjoyed the yard as well had we had more free time. The kids loved the stock of puzzles, legos and bathtub!! This beautiful character home was perfect for multiple families coming together to enjoy in the festivities of Bellingham. We will definitely return! Tiffany Loney

Aug 05, 2025 Wonderful house! The hosts were very quick to respond to my questions! We had our son’s wedding in Fairhaven and this was a wonderful house to relax and regroup in. They had everything we needed and more! Very enjoyable for our family. RuthAnn H
Aug 05, 2025 Loved our weekend here. Great open layout for conversation and cooking. Comfortable beds, felt right at home. Beautiful front garden and porch. Fountain district is outside of the core of Bellingham but still has food, drinks, convenience stores within 2 blocks. Gus G
Aug 31, 2025 My family and I had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The home was very clean, comfortable, and well taken care of. It had everything we needed for a relaxing visit, and the location was perfect—quiet, safe, and close to everything in Bellingham. The host made sure everything was ready for us, and we felt very welcome throughout our stay. We were truly satisfied and would happily stay here again. Highly recommended! Gladys Carlos
Oct 05, 2025 This house could not have been better We were a group of 5 good friends in town for a special occasion. This house could not have been better! Spacious; comfortable beds; really clean; and one of the best-equipped kitchens I've ever had in a vacation rental home. Add to that the lovely craftsman design and tasteful artwork, and it adds up to a wonderful home that I would gladly rent again. Marya G
Oct 08, 2025 Beautiful house. Beautiful house. Has everything you need for a great stay. Comfy beds. Walkable to downtown and coffee. Victoria H
Oct 18, 2025 Great house Great house for a weekend with friends. Lots of room in the house and a great location with several places to walk to. Brian C
Oct 20, 2025 Cool spot! Beautiful home. if you followed the Airbnb directions it takes you to the wrong spot, but put the address in Google maps and it will take you right there. Adam Keane
Nov 21, 2025 Thank you. I've now stayed here multiple times and each time the staff has been super attentive and accommodating. The house has been a great place to get together with friends for a weekend in Bellingham. We keep discovering great little places real close to the house and enjoy the walk to the main downtown area. House is always a treat to stay at. Thank you. Brian Cross
Jan 29, 2026 We absolutely love this beautiful home! It is perfect for a big family as it is kid friendly with plenty of toys to keep the little ones busy and very comfortable for all. I would choose to stay here again and again. Close to down town and all the things we needed in a lovely quiet neighborhood. I appreciated the well equipped kitchen and the open dining area. We were running late with our breakfast and the manager was so kind to not have us rush out the door.Thanks for being amazing. Tiffany Loney
Mar 15, 2026 love this place. have stayed here twice now. very well stocked kitchen although we didn't have a chance to cook much. very comfortable house. extremely clean. great sleeping setup upstairs for kids. Jeff Krivohlavek
May 11, 2026 Place is exactly as described. Very comfortable. Had everything we needed. Plenty of towels and bedding and kitchen amenities. The kids room with books and toys was a huge plus for our three year old. We were nervous to park directly in front of the house as it didn’t seem like parking was allowed, but it definitely is so make sure you park right out front! Mika Armaly
May 20, 2026 Nice place Sean Gorman
