Baker Creek Place

Baker Creek Place is an event venue in Bellingham, Washington, operated by the Building Industry Association of Whatcom County. Its 3,000-square-foot banquet hall and meeting rooms are flooded with natural light, with windows overlooking the wooded surroundings of Baker Creek, and an outdoor patio extends the celebration creekside. With seating for 15 to 200 guests, the venue hosts weddings, receptions, graduation parties, family reunions, conferences, and corporate events and retreats. Baker Creek Place positions itself as a blank canvas for self-catering couples and budget-conscious planners: a flat rental rate with no hidden fees or required services, a high-end catering kitchen, a built-in sound system, and tables and chairs for up to 200 included with rental. Setup the night before is permitted when the room is available. Two conference rooms round out the offerings — a light-filled main-floor room seating up to 45 in boardroom, classroom, or theater style, and an upstairs classroom-style room for 24 — making the venue a fit for corporate meetings and trainings as well as celebrations.
