Waterview Chalet in the Woods (#34882)

Write a review My husband and I spent 4 nights at the Chalet and had one of the most relaxing vacations ever. What a beautiful spot to watch the water from. Enjoyed the hot tub, both decks, the outdoor fireplace, and to my delight there is also a claw foot tub in the second floor bath! Grant the owner is very accomadating and what a gem of a home for the price. We will definitely be back! We were first attracted to this vacation listing as we have several (right now six Chihuahua's) and the Waterview Chalet in the Woods is listed as pet friendly. Grant, the owner is extremely co-operative. We found everything as listed. This chalet is not modern. It is rustic, but in my opinion, that bring a great appeal. It was our first opportunity to holiday with our Chi's and that we could do in a very relaxed and wonderful environment. Scenery is magnificent. Jeff This beautifully conceived, constructed and finished all wood chalet is a place for experiencing peace. It is a perfect retreat site with quiet, bountiful views of beauty for meditation yet with all the amenities that allow a variety of lifestyles to be fully expressed in comfort. The fully equipped kitchen and all the overall details of this more-than-any-rental pleasure is a fine bargain and a meaningful investment in thoughtful leisure. There's even excellent high speed wireless internet for emergencies and fine cell phone reception. This pet friendly perfection was also enjoyed as much by our pampered pets as by us! I needed a place to escape NYC and this is the perfect place. The house is beautiful and was everything I needed it to be. The view is fantastic and the hot tub was great plus Grant was excellent to work with. This home is well kept, and very relaxing and cozy. We spent three quiet days -- the views from all the windows are wonderful, whether it's sunny or snowy. The island is quiet but lovely, with lots of deer, bird varieties and very nice people. Thanks for a great stay! We enjoyed every minute of it! Thanks Grant Bowery (owner), VacationHomeRentals (website) and Washington Financial (transaction) for a perfectissimo First-Time-Visit to the Pacific Northwest!!!! Lummi Island Loveliness.... Karen & Ted My husband and I enjoyed our seclusion and privacy...already planning to come back in January. This cabin provided us everything that we hoped for; plenty of rooms, nice big kitchen, bathrooms and a firewood hot tub etc...Thank you so much Grant, we are looking forward next month. The cabin is beautiful, with charming attention to detail. Perfect if you're looking for a secluded, comfortable weekend to sit in front of the fire and relax in the woods.Definitely keeping this place in mind for the next weekend trip. This lovely cabin is a Lummi Island gem. We stayed for 5 nights and had a lovely time in this cozy cabin. The views are lovely, from in the cabin or from the deck or patio or woodsey picnic area. Sitting in the rocking chairs by the wood stove is nice. The place is well set up inside and out. A full kitchen, 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths. All of the comforts of home and more. Did I mention the fenced yard for the dog. The place is private and a wood fired hot tub makes for a romantic evening. Grant the owner is so helpful and is a great resource for things to do in the area. My husband and I had a four day retreat here and loved the seclusion, the beautiful view of Mt. Baker and the cozy cottage. I spent most of the time snuggled on the day bed by the wood stove. We enjoyed the wood heated hot tub, but if you want instant gratification, it's probably not for you. For us it was an adventure. I wrote a more detailed review on my blog. You can email me if you want the link. Only stayed for two nights, but absolutely loved it. Charming location, comfortable cottage. We hope to come back for a longer stay soon. We spent 3 relaxing weeks here and loved it. The view of the water and Mt. Baker from the deck accompanied by the sound of the fountain can't be beat. On warmer days, my 10 year old and I enjoyed swimming in the lake at the top of the hill. It gave her a great chance to meet and play with other kids. Lots of nooks, crannies, and warmth here. Although there is a lovely fenced area for dogs, our 8 lb. Doggie could find ways under the fence when he set his mind to it.
