    Wonderful wooded green pathways filled with all sorts of different plants and wildlife is you look closely.. Taking a walk in this park is better than going to a spa..

    Great views, take a nice walk along the water. Plenty of places for a picnic or family gathering. Also has a large pool for a fee.

    Good place to walk. Waterfront is awesome; you can see sea shells on the beach and beautiful Olympic mountains behind the dark-blue water.

    We walk here for 3 reasons: the actual walk, the soul calming nature and the dog shows.....so many people walk their dogs and it's fun to meet them all.

    I was here last weekend of October and the strawberry madrone trees by the water had fruits. Very mild delicious snack.

    Sometimes there's baby seals here in the winter. Don't get closer than 100 feet, though.

    Take your dog off leash anywhere in the park and earn a $500 fine. Don't listen to "unspoken rules" that are just going to take money out of your wallet.

    The unspoken rule: north of the pool house dogs can romp off leash. Tread lightly and watch out for bikers/runners.
