It's a nice location and park however there are two separate areas but when you Google the park it only directs you to the soccer fields and not the covered BBQ area across the street. We hosted a family engagement event and many of our parents were lost. It turned out fine after some parents shared what happened, we walked across the street and directed families to our correct location and had a great time.

Was there for seafair and it was epppppiiiicccc!!! I usually don't do anything but her annoyed by the noise of this festival but this time it was different. I came with my new friend. General parking was definitely not free which I assume you do online but you need a pass. Lots of different lots named different names but passes required for them. Lucky we found parking in the neighborhood? #nmrk!!!!

Great couple of large fields for soccer. The turf is awesome to play on but gets everywhere! The park for the kids is fine but right next to the parking lot which makes me nervous for the little littles. Parking is easy enough depending on the number of games and what not going on. The dog park is great, too. Lots to offer!

Went to the Boeing seafair event. Great to see all the airplanes buzzing around and also got to see the hydroplanes. Nice place to enjoy with family or even alone. Lot of food stalls to eat and drink. They had a shuttle service to and from Columbia station which was great.
Restrooms
Restrooms were available.

08/12/23: it is a huge park with tons of picnic areas and trails. I see many locals running and walking dogs here. It is a very friendly and clean local park and the locals are also taking care of it since it is well-maintained and clean with almost no trashs

  • AJ Garcia

It's a local park. Good running \ walking path and boat rentals. Large lake for being in the middle of a neighborhood. Tables are few and lack shade. Also were full of duck poop, expected as ducks are everywhere. Nothing special from my perspective.

  • Peter Hoy

Nicr sized urban park that borders the lake, sections inclyde two soccir/ football fields, the park to the north between Genesee and awake zwashington Boulevard is a great place fir runners, dog walkers, or kids to run around on the open grass.

  • Sean Ramsey

The people and dogs seem to be getting along. The people seem to be more attentive towards other dogs as opposed to other places I've been to like Marymoor would be nice if it were larger, but is good for what it is. Would probably come back

  • Samuel Rodriguez

This park is the closest to the Seafair event and you'll be able to have a good place to rest while you get into the event. Come prepared to a ton of fun!!

It is quite crowded during Seafair days but there’s a lot of food options and things you can check out, such as the army vehicles, hydroplane models, Air Force VR experiences and so on. Food are quite overpriced tho.

This is a pretty park, I was only in one small area taking a small hike. I was able to see Salmon in the streams or babbling Brooke, I got some good exercise and I found out I’m afraid of heights lol!
