About this property

A Spacious And Unique Stay On 5 Beautiful Acres In Town

This large apartment is the lower level of the main house. It is completely separate with its own entrance and a slider that opens to the patio area. We are happy to share access to the rest of our beautiful property. Its a great place to hang out and have fun with many areas available for yard games or hanging out by a fire.

The rental is beautifully remodeled and very spacious yet cozy. Both bedrooms have queen beds, plus a third sleeping area with an IKEA couch that makes into a queen bed. The open concept kitchenette/living area is great for families and small groups. The kitchenette does not include a range/oven, but we have included appliances to make it easy to cook simple meals. These include an induction burner, a counter top convection oven/roaster, griddle, crock-pot, microwave and small toaster oven. The kitchen includes a full sink, an apartment size refrigerator, and plenty of counter space. Plus there is access to the grill. We proudly provide locally roasted coffee and locally blended teas.

Loni and I live in the upper level of the house and have our own entrances and upper deck. Most of the time we will be available for help, questions or even a chat. We understand if you like your privacy and will do our best to respect that, but if you would like to pick a locals brain we are always happy to share a beverage together.

Our neighborhood is conveniently situated to be close to many options. We are 4.5 miles to downtown Bellingham, 1 mile to Lake Whatcom and Toad Lake, and close to Mt Baker Hwy for access to mountain activities. Plus there are parks and trails nearby for walks, hikes and mountain biking. We are very lucky to have 5 acres so close in town. Its our little oasis in the middle of the neighborhood.

Easy access comfort
Comfortable bed and furniture, cool artwork, very friendly and responsive hostesses. (This vrbo works well if you have a walker, providing it folds up side to side. Otherwise you won’t have access to the kitchen area or living room seating.)

Very nice, owners very helpful
Cute cozy clean basement apartment. The grounds are very nice for walking, and quite extensive. We had a lot of rain so could not take much advantage of it. Also, we were not in the place very much because we were mostly there to visit family. But as a place to lay our heads each night it was very nice. The location was perfect for us.

Wonderful Stay!
Our stay here was incredible. The walkable trails around the property were a nice bonus to explore with my coffee in the mornings. The space is the lower floor, so if some puppy gallumphing and tiny human pitter patters will greatly irritate you, you may want to find another location, but they are very upfront about this. We had minor issues with some of the kitchen appliances, but the renters were very responsive to all issues. Was VERY close to almost everything on the list of things we wanted to see in and around Bellingham. Overall, incredible location!

Wonderful Stay in Bellingham
Highly recommend! This was one of our favorite vacation rentals by far. The property is beautiful and the rental was great, very comfy beds and sofa area! Alana was so friendly and very helpful in providing info on hiking trails and good restaurants in the area. Her complimentary hard cider was delicious and a wonderful bonus. We will definitely be back!

Just what we were looking for and more
Very accommodating to our needs. A lovely place to spend a fall weekend with our young Adult children. Carving pumpkins and utilizing the great outdoor space was just what we needed. Then we were offered the most amazing local cider and found a new favorite place to add to our collection of faves in BHam! We will be back!

Fantastic Property!
We really enjoyed our time at Bed and Brew and wished we could have stayed longer! Such a peaceful and beautiful property and Alana and Loni truly thought of everything to make our stay great. So many extra touches that we appreciated (coffee, delicious cider, a nice grill to use, washer and dryer, fabulous outdoor area). If ever back in this area, we would choose this again without hesitation!

Great property, location, and hosts!
A wonderful month-long stay! The property is well appointed and clean with a nice layout and large living area space. It is on a large, wooded lot where you were guaranteed to see deer and other wildlife daily from the back porch or on walks through adjacent neighborhoods. The location was perfect for us as a base to explore lakes, parks, restaurants, breweries, and hikes in Bellingham or neighboring towns. Proximity to Lake WhatCom and it’s large park was ideal for walks with our dogs. A big difference maker for us were the hosts, Alana and Loni. From making lists of recommendations based on our “likes” to having cider or cocktails on the back porch, they were perfect hosts! Having friendly and engaging Bellingham experts close by is an advantage we absolutely appreciated. We would highly recommend this property and hope to make it back next summer.

Highly recommend- quiet and cool in the heat of the summer. We thoroughly enjoyed the large outdoor area and firepit for dinner. Comfortable and cozy interior. Cute kitchen. Small appliances that were available worked just fine for prepping dinner and making breakfasts. Beautiful, large walk-in shower. Friendly hosts. Thank you!

Perfect for us
Alana and Loni’s property was perfect for a weekend get away with 3 adults and 2 dogs. We had a packed weekend and my only regret was not hanging out at the house more! Instructions were super clear, I loved how dog friendly the place was and we even had complimentary local cider. I needed lawn chairs for an event and Alana had them ready for us no problem since I forgot to bring ours. Note to others- the property is not fenced, is near a fairly busy road and does share another rental space so if you do bring pets, keep them on leash if they don’t have good recall. Overall, I would totally stay here again.

It’s the Details
Yes, the setting and the rental were outstanding, but it’s the details that sets any one place apart from the next: aromatherapy if desired, whole coffee beans/grinder, pet welcome basket, quality organic shower products, chilled glasses in the freezer, a Netflix sign on (no dredging up dead pet names from 2009), stellar condiment selection. All these are welcome and appreciated. Thrilled. Thank you!!!

Great family vacation
My husband and I stayed here with our three kids, ages 8-12. We had plenty of space, and it was nice to have room for the kids to have room to run and play. We felt right at home. Hosts were amazing, property was nice. We had a great stay. We’d definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Alana and Loni

Host profile image
Loni and I have always loved to travel. What we love most about traveling is being able to experience the life and culture of each area that we visit. When we are not traveling, we love to open our home to family and friends and have hosted several events. This got us thinking that our home is a perfect set up for the traveling adventurer such as ourselves.

Plus we are pet lovers and are always happiest when we can take them with us. We have 3 dachshunds (Rolo, Bella and Beans) and a beautiful cat (Cece). They have lots of personality and entertain us regularly. This is why we have decided to be pet friendly with our rental. As long as your pet is house broken, friendly and adorable they are welcome!

Why they chose this property

We purchased our property from family and it has been in the family for many years. It has 5 park like acres and there have been many celebrations and good times had on it. Our friends and family have often said we should host a B&B. It finally sunk in and got us thinking...

Our home is conveniently two separate levels. After a beautiful remodel we turned the lower half into a gorgeous and comfortable rental. You may be wondering "Why Bed n Brew?" While we weren't interested in providing breakfast, we don't do anything without our morning coffee so we decided to provide guests with locally roasted coffee and locally blended teas.

Additionally, Bellingham is quickly becoming a beer connoisseur destination. With several breweries up and running and more on the way, it makes this little town a fun location to taste craft beers. We are happy to share our knowledge of the local beer industry and direct people to experiencing the best Bellingham has to offer.
