As one of the bigger cities in Washington, it should come as no surprise that there is a major event or festival taking place in Bellingham every month of the year. Sample the newest beers from local brewers at the April Brews Day in April, watch downtown streets become filled with artwork from kids and adults during the Chalk Art Festival in August, or attend live performances by the top blues artists in the country at the Mt. Baker Blues Festival in July.

A vacation rental is the preferred option for those staying in Bellingham. Rent a beautiful apartment with easy access to the lake, or a luxury condo downtown. There are plenty of affordable properties here that will make for a wonderful vacation home.
