Celebrate the holidays at Geneva Retreat: Bungalow w/ Trails, Near Lake Whatcom

Welcome to Geneva Retreat by Gather, a tranquil two-bedroom, two-bathroom home situated in the serene neighborhood of Bellingham, Washington. With easy access to the majestic Lake Whatcom at the end of the street, this homely bungalow marries convenience, comfort, and the charm of the Pacific Northwest.

Step into a world of warmth as you enter this home. With high ceilings, original wood flooring, and large windows that allow for an abundance of natural light, Geneva Retreat creates an atmosphere of comfort. The house is tastefully furnished with everything you need to feel at home. The two bedrooms, located at each end of the house, offer privacy and ample storage, ensuring your stay is as comfortable as it is peaceful.

At the heart of the home is the fully updated kitchen, complete with a gas stove, solid surface countertops, and all the cooking supplies you need. Whether you're preparing a quick breakfast or a gourmet dinner, the well-stocked kitchen is your culinary canvas.

Relaxation comes easy in the living room, where a large sectional invites you to lounge around the wood-burning stove. For a breath of fresh air, step outside to the beautiful fully fenced backyard that basks in the sun all day, or enjoy a quiet moment on the front porch, outfitted with comfortable seating.

Location is a key aspect of Geneva Retreat. Just a quick pedal away is the Galbraith Trailhead, while a leisurely stroll will take you to the mesmerizing Lake Whatcom. A brief drive can see you in the heart of downtown Bellingham or shopping at Whole Foods. And for further adventures, Mt. Baker Ski Area and Vancouver are just 1.25 hours away.

We consider pets with approval, so feel free to inquire if you wish to bring your furry friend along. Whether you're seeking adventure or tranquility, Geneva Retreat serves as your perfect home base to enjoy the best of Bellingham. Welcome home.

Well equipped and cozy home from home
Really well equipped delightfully cozy home in stunning lakeside and woodland neighborhood. Quiet location but only a short distance from downtown Bellingham and Whatcom Falls Park. Thoroughly recommended.

3 day visit to Bellingham
Was in town for Son’s graduation from Western and wanted a place to gather for meals and relax/hang out. Lovely house on quiet street near Lake Whatcom. Backyard is charming and a great spot to sit outside for a meal when the weather cooperates. Kitchen is the best equipped of any house rental I have experienced.

Great Home in a Safe, Beautiful Neighborhood
This house was perfect for what our group needed over the weekend. The kitchen had any utensil we would ever need for cooking or baking. It was in a quiet, safe neighborhood as well. The property management group was prompt in responding to my questions. Would stay here again!

Cozy Home
The home was very cozy and in the perfect location for our family as our relatives live near by. The front garden was enchanting and peaceful. The home was lovely inside, it is the perfect place to snuggle down with a good book. The 2nd bedroom was pretty tight but worked for us. We enjoyed our stay.

Quiet Retreat
Perfect blend of Bellingham cottage and modern amenities – kitchen and bathrooms are nicely upgraded. Lest than 15 minutes from Western Washington University and downtown Bellingham. The ideal retreat to brew some tea, read a book, take a walk near the lake, then drive into town for local beers and dining. Thank you!
