Whether you’re enjoying the crisp autumn air or a misty winter morning, the hot tub offers the perfect place to unwind. Later, gather around the fire pit for a cozy evening of warmth and conversation, listening to the quiet sounds of the island and enjoying the calmness that comes with the season.

Unique Accommodations
Heron’s Nest is more than just a cabin—it’s a whimsical, elevated tiny home that creates an enchanting atmosphere for your stay. The cozy living area features a convertible couch that transforms into a double bed, making it perfect for relaxing while watching birds through the windows or streaming your favorite shows on the projector screen. Climb the ladder to the loft, where you’ll find a cozy nook to rest, complete with a TV and a view of the surrounding treetops.

Rustic Shower House & Outdoor Living
The outdoor cedar shower house offers a unique experience, with an open ceiling that lets you shower under the sky, truly connecting you to nature. Whether it's a refreshing start to your day or a soothing way to wind down, this shower adds a rustic charm to your stay.

The outdoor space is perfect for al fresco meals or lounging with a cup of coffee on the deck, where you can take in the changing colors of the trees and the soft light that filters through the canopy.

Lummi Island is a special place - time seems to slow down when you cross from the mainland on the Whatcom Chief. Expect relaxation and rejuvenation.

The Heron's Nest Treehouse is in the lovely Lummi Island Scenic Estates which is a community that supports a boat dock and ramp, community building, swimming lake with a covered picnic area with restrooms, and a nearby playground, volleyball court and basketball hoop.

The North End of the island has a loop road that is open to vistas of the mainland, the Salish Sea, and the islands beyond. You can travel the loop by foot, bike or by car - take your time and enjoy every turn.

There are a number of preserves on the island which offer short nature hikes, or a hike up the side of the mountain to reach a vista point that has amazing views to the south of the San Juan Islands - a must do!

Lummi Island boasts the Beach Store Cafe, usually open Thursday through Sunday, and the Islander Store which is the hub of the island - a general store with a collection of artists items next door and the Saturday market from Memorial Day through Labor Day. There are also farm and flower stands around the island and you can usually buy fresh eggs along the roadside.

Lummi Island is home to a variety of artists who are happy to open their studios, mostly by appointment. Check out our island guide prior to your arrival.

A trip on the Whatcom Chief Ferry is required to get to the Heron's Nest Treehouse. The ferry is operated by Whatcom County, and runs at least every hour between 6.40am and midnight on weekdays, a little less on weekends. Round trip fare is $15 for the vehicle and driver and $8 per passenger or for walk-ons. Fare is collected during the run to the island by the purser who will come to your vehicle to collect - credit or debit card only, no cash is accepted.

Walk, bike or drive to the house from the ferry dock and 'downtown' Lummi Island. We are approximately 3.5 miles from this area of the island. 'Downtown Lummi Island' consists of The Islander - general store, coffee and pastries, wine, beer and alcohol. Also attached is Sisters Gallery which highlights Island Crafters and Artisans.

The Island Library has books and movies, of course but also an island history section. The Island Post Office is a full service post office with limited hours, and the Beach Store Cafe has great pizza and specials every weekend.

Remote treehouse getaway
My partner and I had a great time at the heron's nest treehouse. The listing was like the picture and we were thankful for the heads up about the fridge being very small so we brought a cooler for our food. The communication with the property manager Jackie was punctual and she let us know everything ahead of time. The treehouse overall was very remote and quiet and both of us enjoyed the property!
