Charming and Peaceful

It is so spacious! Don't let the inviting exterior fool you. large rooms throughout. Farmhouse decorations so warm and welcoming. It had everything we needed. If there is one downfall it's that it only has one bathroom. Could use a bigger sign for all the addresses. We came in at night and it was a challenge to find the driveway. I would rent this property again. All the animals were a plus too!

Very nice property and a great place to stay and then explore the County, Cascades and Vancouver BC. Only comment would be to clean the patio area in the back so it was clean to use.

We arrived on a Sunday to this beautiful little cottage with lots of open space and lots and lots of animals to visit. The people that work on the farm and the owners of the farm were so delightful and kind, letting us wander the property and feed all the animals. There were two donkeys, a Llama, two adorable goats, geese, ducks and chickens!! It was incredibly quiet and peaceful at night. The beds were soft and cozy. The house had everything we needed that made our stay memorable. We were also very close (1.5 hrs) to Vancouver, BC for a day trip. 10/10 Would Recommend!!

Cute home!

Absolutely loved this little home on the farm. Had plenty of privacy, the owners weren’t in our bubble at all. The beds were so comfortable, everything was clean, plenty of towels. I think an upgraded coffee pot would be nice, it was a slooow trickle. Keurig would be even better. And a way to store leftovers - foil, saran wrap, tupperware, etc. There was none and that’s a pain to deal with on vacation. But highly recommend this place. The ducks and chickens were a funny little bonus for non-farm people. :)

The cottage is conveniently located and quiet. The farm animals are fun. It’s large enough to spread out but still cozy.

Christmas Family Celebration

We loved the cottage. Our son lives down the road from the place and their apartment is very tiny. It was great for our granddaughters to come and run about feeding all the animals and enjoying the snow. Their favorite room was the dressing room, which became their private playroom. The place was perfect for all of us. Thank you so much to Bev & Joe for their hospitality!

Heaven on Earth

From the second I turned into the driveway I was where I wanted to be. Beautiful rolling hills lush greenery everywhere I could hear the creek that runs through the property and it lead me down through some beautiful trees. The cottage is amazing and I fell in love with it as well as the gracious hosts They are quite wonderful people they stopped mid planting and gave us a tour of the property which is spectacular I can not wait to get back there to see them again.

Can’t Wait to Come Back!

I read a few other reviews before booking the Orchard House and all I have to say is some of y’all are silly! One post mentioned the comfort of the beds. Comfort is subjective. Everyone in my party found the cottage to be cozy and comfy. The beds were so welcoming and the pillows were like clouds for my head. If I could live in the cottage I would happily move in. There was always hot water, plenty of clean towels were provided. Having use of a well stocked kitchen made cooking easy and being able to wash my clothes before returning home was a huge plus! Hearing the geese in the mornings, watching the chickens and roosters peck around the grass and seeing the alpacas graze was a real treat. Wonderful and gracious hosts. I hope that anyone reading this comment decides to book and has just as much of a wonderful experience as we did.

Nice comfortable home. Clean and quiet, and my family enjoyed our stay. Joe and Bev were gracious hosts, and we are grateful for their help when we unexpectedly needed it. I recommend this house to anyone wanting a quiet getaway in close proximity to Bellingham and Canada.

Great winter stay for our family

We had a great time. Owners even promptly and graciously got us out of a snow drift we went into on the way up their driveway. Kids had a great time sledding near the house and feeding the geese and ducks. There was plenty of space for 7 people. The house feels bigger than it looks online. Thank you!

Lovely farm, no complaints. Everything you need including lots of hot water :) Could hear the geese every so often but they were a distance away and not at all bothersome - didn't get woken up by them or the roosters. The gas fireplace made it all so warm and cozy on rainy days. Would definitely recommend!

Ferndale fun.

This was a wonderful place for three generations of our family to spend some fun time with my son and his family who live in Ferndale. We were so busy enjoying the beauty and kayaking, and hiking and going to the casino, fireworks, toward Mt Baker for a big hike and sailing, going on a ferry ride to visit an island, movies, shopping, I was exhausted and spent a few mornings staying home and enjoying the peace and quiet! Bev was super-nice.

The Best Ever!

This was the most amazing place we stayed at. We went to Washington to visit our grand kids and this seemed to be the right place. We were extremely surprised the minute we arrived. Found ourselves in the middle of a beautiful farm and a charming cottage with all modern amenities one would need. The owners are extremely welcoming and kind. Had a great time with the grand kids visiting us feeding the geese and saying hello to the alpaca and goats. There was no need to go anywhere. We spent most of our time there. We very much recommend this place to anyone who is looking for peace and quiet. Even though you are minutes away from downtown you find yourself far away from the crowd of the city.
