Romantic water view cabin up in the trees Relax by the real wood fire, after soaking in the Enclosed Redwood Hot Tub with a view. Pet Friendly. Only a ten-minute ferry crossing ($22 RT) with your car, and not part of the reservation. The wood fire in the pot belly wood stove heats the entire cabin . Firewood & 12 hour burn compressed fire logs provided that made from waste ! Enjoy entertaining heat that is very eco friendly with no fossil fuels the wood sourced ecologically releasing natural occurring carbon
Soak in the natural wood hot tub , taking in the water and mountain view in absolute privacy while enclosed from the rain and cold The outside hot shower provides an amazing rare experience
Three story handcrafted cedar cabin top of the hill facing east with sunrise over the mountains across the water . Knotty pine interior, rock and hardwood flooring
Cathedral ceilings bedrooms Beach log beds with down comforter and flannel sheets Fully furnished kitchen with restaurant stainless countertops , gas stove, cast iron skillets and a Great View of the water and mountains from the kitchen makes food prep a pleasant experience . Kitchen has built in seating area so you can have many people in the kitchen enjoying meal prep The dining room has restaurant booth seating with a view and power plugs so you can have hours long comfortable seating at the table with your laptop There is only one restaurant on the island and only open part time, so bring your groceries from the mainland and enjoy the chefs kitchen
Once you park your car and walk through the privacy gate on the lower level you will enter an enclosed private setting a natural rock patio and rose garden with Japanese maples and mature bamboo making a total private setting .

Listen to the birds, and take in the magnificent towering trees The steps then take you up to the next levels for the house and large upper-level deck in the trees which is the private location of the hot tub Fenced yard for your dog and a walking trail WIFI provided, privacy 500 ft fenced in patio and Large 700 sq ft deck on second level for privacy! A totally awesome couples' getaway. There have been many honeymooners and anniversary guests. NO SHARED AREAS; you have the whole house, deck, patio where view the night star-filled sky without city light pollution.

Since you are in a cabin in the woods and on an island, the only noises at night are the hoot of an owl or the wind in the trees. During the day, you can hear the flapping of the eagles' wings as they soar overhead. Hike the woods on a nearby trail close by to the top of the island mountain at 1,200 ft, with incredible views of all the islands The antique character of this rustic getaway includes 150-year-old reclaimed tin ceilings and 100-year-old wood flooring. Upstairs bathroom has antique fixtures, with a charming antique claw-foot tub! Please be aware that dealing with firewood does create some dust which might not be comfortable for sensitive guests. . WIFI provided Netflix movies on the smart TV with Roku . Great cell reception . Rate is for 2 adults , slightly higher for additional guests.
There is a fee for pets so check the box when booking
There are lots of narrow steps, which some might find it a challenge, and a steep driveway. Pet friendly: fenced yard backs up to the woods,
If you want the weekend and wish to arrive on Thursday or stay over Sunday (our normal cleaning days )just ask and we can make them available for you

Area information: Lummi Island is the easiest of the San Juan islands to get to, just a ten minute ferry ride leaving 17 miles NW of Bellingham takes your car yet a world away from the hustle and noise of the mainland. A very quiet setting where the only sounds are the birds and the wind in the trees.

Skies are without city light pollution. Lummi Island is a true island surrounded by water, with sunrise views of snow-capped Mt. Baker (10,781 feet) from the bedroom .
Very little car traffic, watch for the deer on the roads Things to do on the island Lummi island is nature lover's delight, a quiet and peaceful place to reconnect with nature, and your partner. Not a busy tourist area , only a small grocery store and restaurant open part time There are NO OTHER restaurants this site has out of date restaurant information So bring your grocery and supplies with you from mainland
Things to do (1) Hiking trail Inati bay easy former road trail goes into old forest ravine and has views from the cliffs great short dog walk half mile from cabin
(2)The Otto Nature preserve has a nice trail in to old forest great to walk your dog when you first arrive at the island about a mile hike very easy flat trail
(3)There is a hiking trail Mt Baker preserve to the top of the island with an incredible view facing west to all the San Juan islands and the surrounding Salish sea.
(4) Frank's beach is an afternoon sun beach on the west side of the island, and is a good place to view sunsets over Vancouver island. Bring your dog for a walk: Franks' beach is off-leash. You can also walk your dog off-leash in the woods close to the cabin
DISCLAIMER This very unique wooden cabin is NOT suitable for everyone !
This natural wood themed cabin is NOT your modern white painted drywall with fake wood flooring and fake fireplace with gas which you find in new mass produced housing rented out by corporate ownership . This cabin was made in another era with natural materials locally sourced ! Making an experience in getting away before the age of internet when people read books by the fire with a cup of warm brew and taking in the quietness You do NOT use your phone to turn on the so called smart appliances or codes to open the door you feed the wood fire , Gas oven controls manually ceiling fans manually
This cabin recommended for artsy nature lovers that easily handle >keeping a fire going and can appreciate nature instead of being glued to a TV VERY DOG FRIENDLY go for a hike !
Property recommended for persons who want to spend quality couple time together being in a private natural setting forming lifetime memories
.Not recommended for uptight high maintenance types that cannot deal with a cabin in the woods that might have small spidesr or dust from using firewood .Definitely not for those easily bored away from city distractions
