Relax & Recharge | Cozy Escape: Peace, Views

A Quiet, Comfortable Getaway Designed for Rest
Imagine waking up to the gentle sounds of birdsong, the open sky stretching wide above, and the scent of fresh country air drifting in through your window.
Welcome to your private escape at Oostema Farmstead, where peace, privacy, and comfort come first.

Set on 117 acres of rolling pastures and surrounded by Wagyu cattle and open space, this two-bedroom apartment offers adults 16 and over a quiet refuge from noise, crowds, and the busy pace of everyday life.

Not Your Typical Stay

This is more than just a place to sleep.
It’s your chance to truly unplug. Whether you’re enjoying morning coffee on the patio, strolling the quiet farm roads, or soaking in the hot tub under the stars, you’ll find a sense of calm that’s hard to come by. If you’ve been burned by “peaceful” places that weren’t actually peaceful, this is your sign to try something different.

Designed With You in Mind
We’ve welcomed over 1,000 guests and know that real relaxation starts with trust. That means clear communication, warm hospitality, and no surprises. As your hosts living right here on the farm, we’re just upstairs if you need anything. Otherwise, you’ll enjoy complete privacy and space to simply relax.

What You’ll Love About the Apartment:
• Peace and Privacy: No shared walls, no noisy neighbors, just fresh air and open views
• Spacious and Comfortable: A cozy living area, dining nook, and full kitchenette make it feel like home
• Restful Sleep: King-sized bed with premium linens, plus a second queen bedroom and another full bath
• Your Own Patio: Watch the sunrise with a warm drink or enjoy dinner as the sun sets behind the mountains
• Reserved Hot Tub: Available year-round and just for our guests; details are shared after booking

A Farm Stay That Feels Just Right
Not too rustic. Not too fancy. Just clean, thoughtfully designed, and welcoming. Whether you’re a farm-loving couple or simply craving a reset, you’ll feel at ease here. No pressure, just comfort.

Things to Know Before You Book:
• Adults Only (16+): We’re a quiet place for grown-ups to relax
• Pet-Free: To keep things fresh and allergy-friendly, we don’t allow pets
• Shared Property, Private Space: While the apartment is private, we do host others in our barn cabin, campground, and farm store. You might see a few guests or hear us tending the land, but we’ve designed this space to feel like your own

Please Message Us “FARMSTEAD”
This confirms you’ve read these details, and we’ll send the short rental agreement to finalize your booking.

You Deserve a Break That Actually Feels Like One

If you've been longing for a place where you can slow down, catch your breath, and feel truly taken care of, this is it.
We can’t wait to share our farm, our story, and this peaceful space with you.

Very great place. The surroundings are phenomenal, and Lynden itself is a great little town. The bedrooms are nice and cozy, and the beds themselves are comfortable. The bathroom have a lot of extras in them that you might not typically see. Overall a really great place to stay.

We stayed here in early December and it was very nice. The hosts were polite, the space was clean, the instructions were very clear and access was very easy. Lynden is a very charming little town and we left the farm talking about how excited we were to come back in the summer for the raspberries!

We had a great time staying on the farm. The apartment was perfect for me and my kids. The rooms were spacious and cozy and having the two bathrooms was great! It was clean and perfectly decorated for a farm apartment. The owner and his grandson were so friendly and we loved the tour of the farm. This is a great place to stay!!! We loved it!

It was so nice to stay here at the farm for our little one night stay. We came to spend time with our son for Easter weekend since he attends Western Washington University. The beds were extremely comfortable. Just the right amount of detail throughout the entire apartment. We would definitely come and stay here again. Thanks Glen and Lisa

We arrived in a sudden cloudburst, and our host came rushing to help us get our belongings in out of the rain. The apartment is charmingly furnished and every amenity is available. It was fun to see the cattle and the pig and the goat and the chickens and to walk in the raspberry fields.

We had a wonderful time at the Farmstead. We enjoyed picking berries and soaking in the hot tub. The apartment is nice and quiet for snoozing. The location was a good starting point for excursions into Bellingham and other surrounding areas. Would definitely come back. Also Lisa was super nice!

Our stay at the Homestead was fantastic. Everything was exactly as presented. Lisa was very easy to contact and answered all of our questions. She even provided an awesome welcome basket that we all enjoyed. I would highly recommend a stay at the Homestead if in Lynden or the Lynden area.

This is our second stay at the Oostema Farmstead so we are repeat customers. We walked into immaculately clean spaces, tasteful and thoughtful holiday decorations, enjoyed a good night’s sleep in comfortable beds and amazingly soft linens, and loved the fluffy thick soft towels. The Farmstead is so quiet and presented us with some spectacular sunrises that lit up the sky in brilliant pink hues due to its location. Our daughter and son-in-law and their 8 month old stayed in the master bedroom and were able to put the pack and play in the large master bathroom which allowed all three to enjoy a good nights sleep each night. The second bedroom is also good size and just down the hall from the master bedroom which provided additional privacy. Prior to our stay, Lisa was quick to provide us with the check in procedures and was also extremely responsive to any questions that I had. We were there to see our son and his family who live a short distance from the Farmstead which makes it an ideal landing place for us. We will be back!

We LOVED our stay! Pros: Super comfy beds and linens So cute Bigger space than the pictures appear Animals on the farm to see/feed Comfortable tub to soak in Very responsive host Cons: No kitchen. We did take out for dinner and brought easy breakfast/lunch options to make in the kitchenette. Very basic kitchenette (bring butter, etc) Flies (but it’s a farm, so definitely forgivable) Internet didn’t work for the 4 days were there (but this seemed to be the first time that’s happened - so I wouldn’t take too much note of this con). Definitely recommend this getaway!!

Warmly greeted and supported throughout our stay. Property grounds are beautifully manicured. The grandkids loved the farm animals (so did the adults). The hot tub was fantastic. The access to the garden for fresh veggies we barbecued on the grill and bowl full of fresh picked raspberries we’re delicious. The 2- bedroom house was quite sufficient for our family with three grand kids. It was very clean and comfortable. We will be back.

This is a quiet and beautiful place you could get lost in! Panoramic scenery was so peaceful. Great places to take a stroll and a barn full of baby calves to play with. Amazing matresses and sheets. So many amenities (breakfast and other treats). We will definitely come back!
