The largest lot in Wildwood, and it lives like it. Mature trees, real breathing room, and direct access to open green space give this cottage a park-like setting you can't recreate anywhere else in the community. A summer BBQ with a dozen friends or a quiet weekend with nobody around: the lot handles both. Inside, the layout lives bigger than the footprint suggests. A king-sized primary sleeping area, a split loft that gives guests their own space, and windows pulling light in from every angle. The 12x20 covered deck is the real living room here: morning coffee, long dinners, game nights that run past sunset, all under cover when the weather turns. Step outside and Wildwood takes over. Swim from the private beach, launch the boat from the marina, spend the afternoon at the pool or hot tub, play pickle ball or basketball, gather at the fire pits as the light goes. Trails and green space run through the whole community. Odds are you won't want to leave. If you do, Galbraith Mountain is a quick drive, the hiking around the lake is endless, and Bellingham is close by for dinner, coffee, or a day in town. This is also the only lot in Wildwood with two parking spots, one of which can be used for a boat. Add generous storage and low-maintenance ownership and the things that usually eat a weekend are already handled, which leaves you the part you came for: bigger summers at Lake Whatcom and the traditions that come with them.
