About this property

The Baywatch, a stones throw to Cottonwood Beach.

Feel right at home while you enjoy the breathtaking beauty of Birch Bay in this new 2021 built home. There are three stories with decks featuring views of the bay and San Juan Islands. Whether it’s a sunny day on the beach with your family and friends or you're reading a book next to the fireplace, this is where you’ll want to be. You’re just steps from Cottonwood Beach access and close to the new berm pedestrian trail which leads to the local restaurants. Your home away from home.
The space
Though Birch Bay is a hidden gem when the sun is shining, we added details to the home to ensure there is plenty to do on a stormy PNW day. There is a large down couch that pairs well with the 110" projector screen and board games galore.

You will be a short drive to Semiahmoo, Blaine and the Canadian border. Take a longer, but more scenic trip to Mt. Baker or to Bellingham and cruise down Chuckanut Drive.

Beautiful property, very well appointed and maintained

We rented this lovely home for a girls’ weekend, six in our party. There was plenty of room to accommodate all of us with ease, a big table for playing cards, comfy couches, appealing decor. All six of us were quite pleased with this home!!

Amazing 4th of July Show!

This home was absolutely adorable and so well equipped! We stayed for the 4th of July and through the weekend and not only did we have the best view on the deck for the entire show, we were just right across the way from the beach and we enjoyed it fully! I would highly recommend this to anyone. Anna and her husband were so great and responsive! Thank you Anna for a great stay, We will be back for sure!

relaxing

We felt comfortable from the moment we arrived. Spending time with our kids and grandkids under one roof was priceless. The layout of the house was wonderful for a large group. We may just make this the yearly getaway. Anna was always quick to reply to my questions. We were very satisfied with the home.

Beautiful Home

The Baywatch is a beautiful home with walking distance to the beach. Very clean and stocked well. The only thing that was a bit of a bummer is the air conditioning is only on the first floor and the bedrooms are upstairs. It was hot weather for our stay so that was a little uncomfortable but overall it was manageable. Anna was wonderful to communicate with and very responsive.

Somehow the pictures don’t do the house justice. The views are fantastic especially from the top deck. The beds were very comfortable, everyone was pleasantly surprised when they came in. Great house, awesome sunsets.

Clean, New, Perfect Location!

We stole two days in Birch Bay with our grown kids in this fun beach house to celebrate our Christmas. The decor is adorable and clever, space for 9 of us, a short walk to the beach. The upstairs was our favorite for games and a holiday movie (projection screen) while lounging on the amazing down couch. The large dining table was also great for meals and games. We will be back!!
