Francis Creek Retreat in the Heart of Ferndale

Francis Creek Retreat, built in 1881, is one of the earliest homes in the Historic Victorian Village of Ferndale. Besides being comfortable, clean, and well appointed, our sunny, two bedroom home is in the heart of Ferndale. It is a minute's walk to the town's fantastic restaurants, bars, grocery store, shops, the park, and even bocce courts! Beautiful and wild Centerville Beach is a scenic five mile drive away. We love this house and are confident you will enjoy your stay in Ferndale. The space Francis Creek Retreat is in the heart of downtown Ferndale and is a comfortable two bedroom, one bathroom (shower only) home with a large kitchen, living room, and dining room. There is one bedroom with a queen bed and one with a California King bed. The bistro table and propane barbecue on the large back deck are great for enjoying a sunny day and the quiet ambiance of Francis Creek, which runs behind the house. This home is one of the oldest in our town, and we love how you can see the original hand-hewn cedar beams in the kitchen. The house has Wi-Fi throughout and a smart TV in the living room. We have on-demand hot water and forced-air heating. There's a laundry room with a washer and dryer for your use. Enjoy coffee from the Keurig in the morning. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is a grocery store, butcher, liquor store, one block away if you’d like to stay in and cook, or head out to the great local cafes and restaurants down the street. Francis Creek Retreat is just a few doors down from the largest living lighted Christmas tree, and a cozy place to watch the Ferndale Lighted Tractor Parade, which passes by the front door of the house each December! Ferndale is lovely in summer and deer often visit the side yard of the house. Guest access The entire home, yard, deck and barbecue are for guests' use. Other things to note This is a NO SMOKING or VAPING property. If you smoke, this is not the place for you, as the smoke odor lingers on clothing and then is tracked into the house. Thanks for respecting our request.
