    Great views. We went at sunset and took lots of pictures at various pull outs. If you are looking for something to do at sunset, I would recommend this drive.

    Great selection of spirits with even greater service! We were greeted with a very warm and genuine smile and offered everything from tasting flights to mixed cocktails. We wanted to try everything Chuckanut Distillery had to offer so we opted for two tastings.

    We headed outside as it was such a gorgeous day and our server brought us the super cool rustic display of their spirits! The tasting started with the least sweet to the most sweet to help the palate cleanse in between. Our server explained everything to us, she was definitely very knowledgeable of the spirits and processes.

    Our favorites were Krampus and Green Man but the potato vodka was also a cut above any other we've tasted! The gin is super smooth without a heavy juniper base and the rye whiskey is sweet and shippable.

    I highly recommend stopping in for a tasting or some cocktails!

    Unexpected gem of a place. Staff were excellent and exuded passion for teaching and discovery. I speculate they were mostly retired teachers! The demonstrations were great for our 8 and 10 year old. Highly recommend for families of school age kids, or for anyone with a curious mind.

    Fairhaven is a cool district in Bellingham, with lots of fun stores to visit, and eateries and bars. Nice to be able to park and walk around and explore. Always fun to visit when we are in Bellingham.

    Great Lake! It’s a small but beautiful lake. I paddle board here a lot and it’s always very relaxing. The park is awesome and the hike is easy but fun.

    Boulevard park is a must see if you are visiting Bellingham, especially at sunset! Sweet coffe house along a picturesque view on the bay.

    Unfortunately we went on a day when the fog was quiet low so couldn't fully see all the views but what we could see was quite stunning. Was desperate to do this hike whilst visiting from UK as our surname is Baker! Only downside was the trail wasn't very well signposted but used AllTrails app so this was great.

    What a lovely, beautiful theatre! Seating was incredibly comfortable. Acoustics are just a bit brash with all the concrete. Floor seating provides good views at any row or side. Ushers are awesome! Concessions are a bit pricey.
    Our overall impression is that Bellingham actively supports the arts well.

    Excellent stop after visiting Artist Point. The water was chilled and beautiful, the falls were spectacular with some nice views from the bridge.
