Hideaway Amongst the Trees in Bellingham
Adventure in Bellingham, North Cascades, WA, US
Arriving at the hideaway felt like entering our own private treehouse. Situated at the top of a large hill, the entire property is surrounded by pine trees, and with ample windows, you felt truly immersed in the woods.
After enjoying some cocktails on the deck we built a fire in the wood-burning stove and relaxed for the night. The next day we did some exploring and hiking at the nearby trailheads, only minutes away from the door of The Hideaway. From pouring waterfalls, lakes, and endless hiking trails the Bellingham area has so much to offer for an outdoor lover. After hiking all day we returned to The Hideaway for some additional relaxation.
The whole weekend provided a much-needed getaway into the tranquil woods, we returned home feeling refreshed by our time outdoors.
