Walk-Everywhere King-Bed Patio Hideaway with Fenced Parking

Walk-Everywhere 1-Bed Patio Suite + Fenced Parking
▪ Permit USE2025-0021

Tucked behind the iconic yellow 1897 cottage, your own private 1-bedroom apartment with separate entrance, dedicated fenced parking, and a sunny patio that feels like a secret garden. Perfect for couples, solo travelers, or WWU parents who want the best location without the fuss.

PRIVATE PATIO – YOUR OUTDOOR LIVING ROOM
Step straight from the living room onto a fenced patio with bistro table and two chairs. Morning coffee tastes better when the bay breeze drifts in and the only sound is birds arguing over breakfast.

ONE PLUSH KING BED – NO COMPROMISES
King bed dressed in hotel-crisp linens, black-out curtains. Sleeps two like they paid for the penthouse.

LIVING / KITCHEN – COMPACT BUT MIGHTY
Open-plan living with a full-size fridge, gas stove, microwave, Keurig + hot chocolate stash, Graza olive oil, and all the pots/pans you need for late-night quesadillas. 55” Fire Smart TV with every streaming app. 300 Mbps Wi-Fi that actually works on the patio.

BATHROOM
Shower, fluffy towels, hair dryer, and necessary toiletries included.

DEDICATED PARKING – THE BELLINGHAM MIRACLE
Your own gravel spot inside the fenced gate. Back in, unload 10 feet from your door, and forget street hunting exists.

THE VIBE
Quiet enough to hear the bay lap at night, close enough to stumble home from Aslan with tacos in hand. Neighbors wave, kids bike past, and the patio feels like your own private cafe.

Perfect for
WWU parents who want to be “close but not too close”
Couples who believe date night starts on the patio
Solo travelers who want the best parking spot in town
Remote workers who need 300 Mbps and zero distractions
Anyone who thinks vacation should include morning buns and sunset wine

RULES (because the cottage is 128 years old and prefers chill vibes)
No parties
No smoking inside (patio is fine)
Max 2 guests
