Perfect Base for a Galbraith Mountain Getaway
Our family of 4 had a fantastic stay at this apartment!! This was one of the stops on our mtb road trip from San Diego to Whistler and it did not disappoint!! It was spotless, well-maintained, and incredibly convenient to the Galbraith Mountain bike trails which was just what we were looking for! It also has all of the amenities needed; laundry, good showers, a great kitchen and bbq, bike storage, tons of comfy seating, beds and more! The location was only a few minutes from the bike trails parking lot which made it easy to go out for rides without hassle. We loved coming back to the quiet and comfortable space to relax for dinner as well. And being so close to the Transition Outpost was an extra bonus! We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area, especially mountain bikers. And we hope to stay again soon!!

Perfect Galbraith Basecamp
Very clean, comfy and stocked with everything you could possibly need. We came to Bellingham to ride mountain bikes in Galbraith mountain and Chris’s place was the perfect access point. We had storage for the bikes in his shop and access to tire pump/tools if needed. We would definitely stay here again!

All the Comforts of Home
We would absolutely book this property again. Incredibly well-stocked kitchen, workspace, and bathroom. Extremely clean, comfortable, and well maintained studio. Restful bed and sofa with cozy throws. Host responded promptly to questions. Tucked above a large shop (stairs required to access) in a peaceful wooded setting, but a quick 10-12 minute drive takes you to the restaurants and activities in Fairhaven, Bellingham, and WWU. If the weather gets icy, you may need an AWF for the sloping driveway.

Perfect spacious gem!
This place was clean, comfortable, spacious, and convenient. Think move-in-ready! If you plan on cooking, the kitchen has pretty much anything you could need. Coffee grinder, immersion blender, gas range, tupperware, cookware, you name it. We will definitely be back.
Great accommodations tucked above a shop. Quiet, very well equipped, and a few minute drive from downtown. King size bed is very comfortable. If you have a 3rd or 4th person, they’re on the couch or futon. Would definitely stay again!

Very quite, beautiful sylvan setting.
The only drawback was poor interior lighting/lack of windows.
We noticed these things: bathroom sink drains slowly, draw-down window shade next to bed seems compromised.
We enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Rustic and quiet retreat in the woods
Our stay was superb! The hosts were very accommodating. I made a booking mistake but the hosts were so helpful and flexible. The place was warm and stocked with everything we needed. It was so nice after a long day to come back to a warm suite, a huge tv and relax and watch a movie. I absolutely recommend this place and will definitely return!

Perfect Choice!
We were in Bellingham for the weekend - so some of us were mountain biking at Galbrath and in town. The place was close to trails lakes, and town, but in trees and quiet.
There was a nice pool table downstairs and the kitchen is well stocked, with every detail covered to head out for the day. The host was super helpful when we had questions. It had a nice vibe, well designed. Just pull the bed away from the wall so as not to hit your head in the morning. - basic common sense which we were too tired to catch. ;-D. Thank you Chris!

Great Place
I have been renting homes for many years. This home is a definite 5 star listing. The home was well stocked very clean and in great condition. I will definitely recommend this property to anyone I know traveling to this area. The property owner has went above and beyond to make sure your stay in this studio apartment is enjoyable. I have stayed at many property rentals that were much more expensive and not as nice as this property. I would like to thank the home owner for giving us a great place to stay.
