Situated less than six miles south of the U.S.-Canada border, Lynden provides residents with a diverse mix of picturesque surroundings, great schools, and exciting entertainment options. Manicured lawns and charming Dutch architecture are abundant in Lynden, and there’s a variety of single-family home rentals and townhome communities all around the area. Lynden’s downtown area is just steps away from the Nooksack River. Grover Street offers up Dutch-style bakeries, pizzeria, boutiques, and bars where locals gather and enjoy the vibrant setting of the city.

Bender Fields-Lynden Parks and the Northwest Washington Fair and Event Center help put Lynden on the map for annual events and community gatherings, with the former providing acres of screen space, walking trails, and bicycle trails. The trails of nearby state forests and the waters of Birch Bay and the Pacific are less than an hour away, to the east and west respectively.
