Some of the best views in Washington real estate are found at Birch Bay. Birch Bay addresses are part of the small city of Blaine, and it is north of Bellingham near the border. I remember back 35 years ago and recall that Canadians have always had a strong presence at Birch Bay. The young people would come down to party at Birch Bay State Park and the adults would establish second homes for summers and weekends. People were smart enough, even back then when I was a kid, to know the beach was a good place to be. Today there are a number of residences and condos at Birch Bay, available in different price ranges. The property is highly desirable, especially for those people who can afford the water view. But, sometimes just being nearby is good enough. The area has campgrounds, restaurants and great walking, hiking or beachcombing. And, please don’t forget the beautiful sunsets. Every time I do a home inspection in Birch Bay, or Semiahmoo (a beautiful and exclusive part of Whatcom County that is part of the Birch Bay area) I am amazed by all of the walkers (solo and in groups) obviously happy as can be and out to start the morning by exploring the seashore and the sights so prevalent in this unique locale. By the way, you know you are getting close to Birch Bay when you see the waterslide, which operates during the summer months to entertain the children when they are out of school.
