Lake view, amazing sunsets, home sweet home The space This unique mother-in-law apartment was renovated with a brand new bathroom and kitchen in the Winter of 2013. The original space was constructed in 1998 and used as a bonus room for friends and family. At the base of the stairs to the apartment is our Desert King fig tree, planted in 2000. Feast on the figs (when they are in season). The Fig Tree Suite lake view apartment has roughly 600 sq ft with an open studio layout and sits above a garage looking southwest towards Clear Lake and the Olympic Mountains. You may wake to the sound of a crowing rooster. Ravens, hawks and eagles are common sights from the view off of the balcony. Our resident dog and master of affection is Buddy, and he will certainly do his best to get a belly rub from you. Wifi is available. Our laundry room is on our back porch where you can wash your clothes. Our location is semi-rural, just 4 miles from Mount Vernon. For traveling nurses and professionals we are close to Skagit Valley Hospital in Mount Vernon and Peacehealth in Sedro Woolley. This is an ideal location for the outdoor enthusiast with hiking trails and mountain biking trails close by (one even starts right from the backyard!). The location has easy access to the foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range, Mount Baker, and Skagit River, as well as La Conner, Deception Pass and the San Juan Islands. Located just 70 miles north of Seattle and 50 miles south of the US/Canadian border in Skagit Valley. There is plenty of shopping and dining to be enjoyed, numerous art galleries and museums, and local festivals throughout the year, such as the Bald Eagle Festival, Skagit Valley Tulip Festival, the Anacortes Arts and Crafts Festival. Bellingham is just a 30 minute drive, or you can take your time via the scenic route (45 minutes to an hour) up Chuckanut Drive and take in amazing views of the San Juan Islands. After a day of activity, come back to the Fig Tree suite, relax, have a sip and enjoy the view. Guest access Guests will use of the entire apartment, and feel free to roam the property.
