Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Sudden Valley

Carol once again showed why she is the host we compare ALL others to. Her attention to detail and comfort for all her guests keeps us coming back time and again. Thank you, Carol, for always ensuring we have the most wonderful experience each and every time we are there! You are by far and away the best host out there! Brian and Kimberly Charest

Emma's place was perfect for our needs. There was plenty of room for all of us - including our 2 big dogs! The decor is lovely, just like the pictures, but free from clutter, which I appreciated. The kitchen had every item we needed to make our meals. The sauna and cold soak tub were a very appreciated bonus! The neighborhood is very peaceful, and felt safe for walking our dogs. Most importantly was how kind, gracious, and communicative Emma was. She allowed us to check in early, which helped us immensely, and answered any questions we had quickly. I would definitely recommend this rental to others.

Fantastic stay! The property was better than described. Immaculately clean, well appointed. Will definitely stay here again.

Loved it! Great location, place is so adorable and love the neighborhood.

We had a great time at Anna's house and immediately felt right at home. It had everything we needed. It felt perfectly secluded and private in spite of the neighborhood being relatively dense. The view of the lake was beautiful. We appreciated the house's proximity to Bellingham and the area's sprawling mountain bike trails. Grateful for our time there!

We loved the location. I stayed here with my three kids and they loved playing in the backyard, and the home was spacious enough for them to play. There were also enough beds to comfortably accommodate all of us.

A comfortable spot in a great location. Bright, spacious, clean. Host is responsive and helpful. Would definitely come back!

Serene. We spent 3 nights. Lake front boardwalk was a hit with our family as we spent most time there. Place felt even better than how photos looked.

The place is small, but it is really comfortable for a few nights. It was very clean and organized. We really like the common shared area where they have the pool table, a fireplace, and some nice and cozy sofas. We went there both nights, and it was mostly empty with the whole place for us. We didn’t cook, so we cannot evaluate the kitchen.

David was a great host! His communication was prompt and helpful throughout my stay. The location truly can’t be beat — right in the heart of Fairhaven, where you can easily walk to shops, restaurants, and the waterfront. It’s the perfect spot for anyone wanting to explore the charm of Fairhaven, and it’s only a short drive to downtown Bellingham. David’s apartment is beautiful, clean, and well-equipped, making it a comfortable and relaxing home base. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to take advantage of all that this area has to offer! Thank you kindly, David, for the stay!

I can’t recommend Emma’s beautiful stay enough! The studio is beautiful and had everything I needed for my stay. The property is peaceful and even though there were other guests staying on the property, my apartment felt private and I didn’t hear a peep. The bed is super cozy, too! I’ll definitely stay here the next time I’m in the area.

We had good time staying here. The location is perfect for enjoying Birch Bay and just a a few minutes walk to the state park. Thanks Alison!

Thank you for a great stay! I was very comfortable and close to everything I needed!

We enjoyed our five night stay. Nice neighborhood and close to downtown Bellingham & Fairhaven (10-15 min drive). We loved the private location, big shower/ bathtub, and the hot tub! Very nice stay!

This place was an absolute dream. Impeccably clean, perfectly designed, and incredibly well laid out—it felt like stepping into a magazine spread. We spent our evenings on the deck watching the sun set over the San Juans, staying cozy with the outdoor fireplace going. Truly stunning. The space had everything we needed and more—thoughtfully stocked, comfortable, and quiet. We also loved exploring the tiny town of Edison—don’t miss the local bakery (we went back twice!) and the brewery/distillery next door made for a perfect low-key night out. No notes—just a beautiful, memorable getaway. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Wife and I have stayed multiple times and enjoyed each stay. Excellent all around, especially thoughtful in the kitchen. Parking the only minor drawback, and that is really quite minor. Our go to place twice a year in Bellingham.

This place lives up to its name, Hidden Gem. With the shrubs and bushes around the property and the terrace give total privacy as well as the beautiful sounds of birds and the odd passing squirrels and deer. Even being above quite a busy street, it is peaceful and relaxing. The apartment is really comfortable and has everything we needed for the 10 days we stayed. The proximity to town as well as some lovely nature walks and easy access to the walk along the Boulevard is wonderful.

Kristy’s place was great! Perfect place to crash after a day of hiking around Mt. Baker. There wasn’t many food options in the actual town of Glacier but there was a grocery store! Just something to keep in mind, but it was great stay!!

The Inn on the Harbor was a perfect weekend getaway spot. Super clean and comfortable with great water views. Check in was made really easy and Tracey gave great directions ahead of time. Downtown Blaine is very walkable from this spot. We will be back!

This place is truly a gem. We were so blessed to find it. And then to have such amazing hosts was just the cherry on the sundae. We kept finding more sweet surprises around every corner. I loved how Duncan and Sarah didn't overcomplicate anything but were readily available. Our expectations were exceeded.

The only complaint I have is the bed in the bedroom. Could not sleep on it very squeaky, wiggly, mattress very lumpy.. needs a foam mattress and new frame. It was so uncomfortable. Thank god the couch was comfortable. Hopefully he will replace the bed by the next time I stay.

This was a really, really great find and stay. Dawn, the property manager, was incredibly responsive and helpful - our only issue was someone who parked in our designated spot, which Dawn sorted out within minutes. Lars' condo is beautiful and well appointed, with many thoughtful touches including coffee and toiletries. One downside on hot days in the absence of air conditioning, however the unit has plenty of high powered fans to help. I would absolutely stay at Lars' place again. Thanks Dawn and Lars!

Matt's place was perfect for my group to spend an easy weekend skiing at baker. Very close to the glacier ski shop and wake n bakery, 30 mins from the slopes, and within walking distance of chair 9. There were games and a few dvd's to choose from in the condo, as well as a community building with a pool table, hot tub + pool, and much more. Matt supplied helpful instructions and was very responsive. I would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay! Loved that from one balcony we had a river view and the other a view of the bay. The home was comfortable and cozy for our family. Beds had nice, soft (and clean!) sheets, comfortable mattresses as well. Short walk to beach access and coffee shop which was a plus as well.
