This gem of a park is very close to my home and quite the gem! It's a park that has a nearly 2 mile walk around the perimeter of a forested peninsula (trees on one side, the lake on the other). It's really a must-see! I highly recommend a stroll here.

City/town information

I'm a born-and-raised Seattleite and love the city! There are many things to do and plenty of great food to eat (especially Seafood).Check out the Chihuly Garden & Glass museum, Japanese Garden, Amazon Spheres, and the renowned Space Needle to name a few places to make the most out of your stay. Need any recommendations on what to do or see in the area? Feel free to contact me and share what your interests are and I'll make a catered itinerary for you! :)

Bellevue is a great city just across the lake in Seattle! It has more of the fancy restaurants and shops in the downtown area there and is cool getaway to explore. They always have wonderful lights that line their downtown streets and many nice parks in the areas as well!

Food scene

If you’re splurging, you can try the buffet ($60/person) but the best treat is their happy hour (great bang for the buck) all day Saturday & Sunday!
