About this property

Modern Dream Lake Samish Waterfront Home

High Ceilings and Large windows make this home a place where the weight of the world fades away.

There is one bedroom with a queen bed, one queen size sleeper sofa (with a gel mattress) in the great room as well as a blow up queen mattress. A great place for two to six for a fun weekend.

My 'Girly Industrial' house theme is expressed in the pink accents, hand painted black peonies on the grey concrete floors to the truss joist with car-decking for the ceiling creating a loft like space.

I put in 'old lady' steps to easily get into the water off the dock so more are able to enjoy the lake on a hot day.

My house is designed for accessibility no curb for the shower 36 inch wide doors and it is all on one level. I brought my friend who is in a wheel chair for a weekend and she was happy to be so independent. For further details please call.

I am not always at a computer ( I am somewhat of a luddite) so my response time is not instant. I am at my computer on Mondays. Please feel free to call if time is of the essence. that is the best way to reach me.

Stylish stay by the lake
We felt very relaxed at this stylish open-concept industrial home by the lake. We enjoyed sitting on the dock and taking in the early fall sunshine from the reclining chairs on the lawn. The kitchen is well-equipped and the bathroom felt luxurious with a rain shower and a unique ceiling faucet to go with the jacuzzi tub. We would definitely stay again.

Wonderful place
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. The house is located on a beautiful quiet spot on the lake with a great view. The house is really incredible and is beautifully and uniquely decorated. It is stocked with most everything you can think of so no worries if you forget something. Jennifer, the owner, is just lovely to deal with it. An unexpected plus for the dog owner is it is less than a 10 minute drive to the most wonderful dog park at Padden Lake. I enjoyed a 3 hour trek through the forest leash free! We cannot recommend this place highly enough. We look forward to coming back again:). Thank you Jennifer! Jeff and Harumi from White Rock B.C.

Relaxing stay
My husband and I stayed at this lake house for 3 nights and we really loved it. It was quiet and relaxing and it was exactly what we needed. View of the lake was amazing. It rained the first 2 days we were there but on our last day it was beautiful so we got our inflatable boat out and went around the lake. Thank you so much Jennifer for letting us stay at your house and be able to have such a wonderful experience.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Randall

Host profile image
I am an interior designer based in Seattle since 1975. Since 2020 I have been managing my projects from afar and working predominately from my Bellingham office.

In 2009 I designed and began building this house on Lake Samish. Fulfilling a life long dream of designing and building my own home. I tease my clients that I have had 40 years of practice on them when they see my house and like it.

I love my house and I enjoy sharing it with others..

Why they chose this property

I grew up on the lake I lived across West Lake Samish Drive (up on the hillaisw from this property) where my family still lives. They have lived at the lake since 1962.

I always dreamed of building a custom house on this slip of land that is my families access to the lake. I have been sketching for decades. So what you see is result of budget hitting dreams and shaking down into a comfortable relaxing place to be.

What makes this property unique

I grew up using the dock, swimming, skiing, and enjoying the lake however the first time as an adult I sat still and looked up the lake I felt the serenity of the view wash over me and I knew I wanted to live here.

So I have brought my precious things, my piano, art and Kitchenaid mixer (ha) to a space I can enjoy in anticipation of creating a place to retire. Until retirement I will share it with others and hope they can have a little piece of my dream for themselves.
