This is a beautiful and walkable park hides in the middle of the Kirland city. It is on the other side of the lake, facing Juanita Beach Park that most people knew. This is my favorite park with fewer people and a lot of viewpoints. In 2 viewpoints you can see water lilies, turtles with ducks sitting side by side. Of course, many birds are there too. It is such a peaceful place.

This is a wonderful park! The open beach, the roomy path; it's a great spot to sit and have ice cream. It also has lots of storefronts directly adjacent to get food for your hangout. Parking fills up quick on nice days, so be ready for that.

I have been to the Grape Choice many times and I always love to see the new wines they are highlighting by the glass. I have enjoyed all of the recommendation I have received. It is also nice that they have some light snacks available for purchase while sipping. The shop itself has a nice variety of wines from around the globe.

This short hike through the woods is nothing short of spectacular for any photographer or a simple stroll into wonderland. After you park in the trailhead lot, walk directly in front and up a short grass incline to the trailhead. The trail splits into two directions, stay to the left and go straight across the wooden foot bridges. Make sure to look in all directions. Along the trail you will see Sylvia a 600yr old over 26 feet in circumference Douglas fir tree. All photos by Louis Ruth Photography.com @2019

The was the last stop during our visit to Kirkland. This beach used to have a resort owned and operated by the Forbes family until they sold it King’s County. This fulfilled their wish to make their land public. More details were found on a market near the beach. Besides the well maintained beach, a boardwalk extended out into the lake in an L shape. A large playground was also being built and will someday entertain lots of kids. This parking lot had quite a bit of open spaces along with spots across the street so it makes it easier for many to enjoy once the weather warms up.
