Nestled in the Mount Baker Rim community, Arch House is a beautifully designed two-bedroom, one-bathroom, arched frame cabin. The home was first purchased in 2021 by Erica and Alex Egner, who hoped to create a mountain getaway that could also serve as a vacation rental. They spent the next year and a half designing, renovating, and tailoring the home to their vision.

“We’re both designers,” says Erica. “The desire to create and make beautiful things is something we naturally share.”

If your scalp is haunted by half-hearted hair care, there’s a place in Bellingham where you can go to revive it. Moondog Head Spa & Haunt is the private studio of hairstylist Deirdre Miller. It may share space with the ghosts of the Herald Building, but that’s not why Miller called it a haunt. đŸ‘»âœ‚ïž

The Dark ‘n Stormy is a classic, and the perfect drink to make at home! With only three steps and ingredients including the garnish, it’s also one of the more accessible cocktails to make on a budget. While the exact origin of this cocktail is unknown, it’s likely that sailors were the original enjoyers: the rum combined with the ginger can help to settle queasiness, a perfect refreshing remedy for upset stomachs at sea.

After facing some challenging years, an iconic Skagit County staple is making a comeback as a go-to spot for locals and visitors. Under new ownership, Conway’s Pub and Eatery is being refreshed with a focus on revitalizing the neighborhood atmosphere while preserving the pub’s roots. Long known for its oysters, burgers, and dive bar charm, Conway’s is once again the lively gathering place that patrons enjoyed for decades.

“We wanted to restore the pub to its glory days and create a community feel again,” says Owner Nate Sheridan. “So many locals have come in here and thanked us; they wanted this back so badly.”
