Cozy Autumn and Winter Retreat at Bungalow by the Bay
As the vibrant colors of autumn sweep across the Pacific Northwest, and the crisp air settles in, Bungalow by the Bay becomes the perfect retreat for a peaceful getaway. Nestled in the quiet, scenic neighborhood of Gooseberry Point, this one-level bungalow offers stunning views of Lummi Bay and the San Juan Islands, providing an ideal escape to experience the tranquil beauty of fall and winter by the bay.
Breathtaking Views and Cozy Comforts
Picture yourself wrapped in a blanket on the spacious front deck, watching the sun set over the bay, casting rich, golden hues across the water. The changing seasons bring a serene beauty to the landscape, with passing fishing boats and the occasional eagle soaring overhead. The deck is still a wonderful space for outdoor meals or simply sipping hot cocoa while the Pacific Northwest sky performs its evening magic.
A Warm and Inviting Home
Inside, the bungalow offers all the comforts you need to relax and recharge. The cozy propane gas fireplace in the living area is perfect for warming up after a crisp day of exploring the region. Artwork inspired by the Pacific Northwest adds charm to the space, while large windows let in natural light and showcase the breathtaking views outside. The living and dining areas create a warm environment for family gatherings, where you can enjoy meals, play board games, or simply unwind with a good book.
Restful Retreats for Quiet Nights
The two bedrooms are designed with your comfort in mind. The primary suite, with its queen-sized bed and spacious layout, is a peaceful haven after a day of outdoor adventures. An additional queen-sized air mattress can be added to accommodate extra guests or children, making it a flexible space for families. The ensuite bathroom, complete with a shower, offers a private retreat to start or end your day.
The second bedroom, also featuring a queen bed, is conveniently located near the main bathroom with a shower/tub combination, providing comfort and privacy for all guests.
A Cozy Kitchen for Winter Feasts
The galley kitchen, equipped with an electric cooktop and retro GE wall oven, invites you to create hearty meals that will warm you from the inside out. Whether you're brewing morning coffee or preparing a cozy winter dinner, the kitchen's vintage charm adds a nostalgic touch to your culinary adventures. Enjoy your meals around the dining table or take them outside to the deck for an al fresco experience, even in the crisp autumn or winter air.
