With two lakefront beaches, surrounded by trails weaving through transitory forests and wetlands, Lake Sammamish is as unique as its name. Located just outside Seattle, guests will be able to escape the bustle of the city without spending hours in the car. Lake Sammamish State Park offers a wealth of outdoor activities on water and on land such as swimming, kayaking, paddle-boarding, and waterskiing as well as biking and hiking along 1.5 miles of trails.

For those who don’t have their own equipment, rentals are available at Tibbetts Beach. There are also two baseball/softball fields, sanded volleyball courts, a playground, and several opportunities for bird and wildlife viewing.
