Family reunion
We enjoyed our stay very much at the cottage, it was perfect for our multi generational family. It was exactly as advertised and the most stocked VRBO we have ever stayed in, We got spoiled cooking on the amazing gas stove! The cottage is about 20-25 min to Fairhaven historic district/Western WA and only 15 min to whatcom falls park, gorgeous this time of year! We would highly recommend staying here and we will be back! Thank you! The Grays

Beautiful Property
This home was just perfect. Location was great, it was spotlessly clean, well appointed, 3 King size beds that were really comfortable, perfect for multiple families or a group of adult couples. No couple had to squish into a smaller bed. We will definitely rent this property again. The owner was also very helpful during the booking process when I had some difficulties with an incorrect email address aligned to the booking. Overall great experience!

Retro
We had a wonderful stay at this property. We all loved the way it was so retro decorated. Clean and comfortable, well stocked kitchen. They had toys and books for small children. My granddaughter loved the bunkbeds. We golfed and swam in the lake.
It needs a barbecue that does not need croquet's.
We would stay here again.

Coziest Cottage
My husband and I recently stayed at this amazing home whilst visiting our family in the Sudden Valley community. What a fantastic home - all the amenities one would need, beautifully decorated, extremely clean and indeed "cozy".
We hope to stay there again!

Gorgeous cottage in a woodsy, peaceful atmosphere
I loved this house! Beautifully decorated, with attention to every detail. I felt like I was staying in a luxury hotel. Delicious coffee, fireplace that turns on and off with the push of a button, tasteful and comfortable furniture, lovely touches like throw blankets - I felt so at home! The neighborhood of Sudden Valley is gorgeous, full of mature evergreen trees, quiet, and bordered by Lake Whatcom. I loved sitting on the covered front porch with my morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. Sudden Valley has little beaches on the lake and hiking trails that are fun to visit (and an outdoor pool in summer). If a gorgeous house in a beautiful natural setting is what you're looking for, this is the place for you!

Corinne’s house is just lovely. The beds and furniture are very comfortable. She provided nice amenities. We all loved the big trees in the neighborhood. Lots of nice walks to be had. The location close enough to grocery stores. There are several nature areas that are very close by and made for interesting hikes. We all appreciated this property.
