Fairhaven is also the gateway to the San Juan Islands, Victoria and Alaska by ferry and hosts the Amtrack train station if one wants a quick trip to Vancouver BC or Seattle.

Summary: This place is a treasure. The bed was comfy with many pillow and blanket options. Great kitchen with anything you could need. The view was amazing and just an all-around great place to stay. Mere minutes from Fairhaven, which is a cute little part of Bellingham to explore. The hosts were warm and friendly.
