06 Nov 2025 Things to do in Montana
Tucked away in the far northwestern corner of Washington State, the town of Blaine offers a genuinely unique and tranquil seaside experience, standing in peaceful contrast to the bustling cities of the Puget Sound. Home to the iconic Peace Arch and the historic Semiahmoo Spit, Blaine is an ideal destination for renters seeking quiet luxury, maritime exploration, and world-class seafood. A private vacation rental here doesn't just offer accommodation—it provides an exclusive base camp for exploring the beautiful US-Canada borderlands.
Blaine’s allure lies in its peaceful atmosphere and historic landmarks:
The Peace Arch Historical State Park: This remarkable monument is the only one in the world dedicated to peace between two nations, situated directly on the US-Canada border. Visitors can walk freely within the park's grounds, crossing the international boundary without going through customs—a truly memorable experience and a prime spot for photography.
Semiahmoo Spit & Resort: This long, sandy peninsula is a haven for nature lovers and bird watchers. You can enjoy a flat, scenic walk along the shoreline, offering stunning views across Drayton Harbor and Boundary Bay. The resort offers dining options, but many choose to take the quaint, historic Plover Ferry (seasonal) across the water for a unique ride.
Fresh Seafood and Local Flavor: No trip to Blaine is complete without indulging in the local bounty. The Drayton Harbor Oyster Company provides a true tide-to-table experience, serving fresh oysters harvested just a mile away.
If you're searching for a serene, history-rich, and visually spectacular coastal getaway, a private Blaine vacation rental is unmatched. Stop searching for generic hotels and find a property that offers more space, more privacy, and the unique amenities you need to enjoy the Pacific Northwest borderlands to the fullest.
