Welcome to Lake Forest Park
For those who love the great outdoors without being too far from premium city amenities, Lake Forest Park is a dream come true! Nestled among the trees on the shores of Lake Washington and north of Seattle and Bellevue, Lake Forest Park offers the opportunity to truly have it all. Whether you need to commute into the city for work or want to spend a day on the beach, it's all wonderfully within reach.
Lake Forest Park boasts two private beach clubs, the largest remaining mature forest in the area, and the Burke-Gilman Trail (which spans 20 miles and goes right into Seattle) runs along the water through the city. While you won’t find a traditional downtown hub, the Lake Forest Park Town Center is home to city hall, the police station, restaurants, grocery, and Third Place Commons, a large, flexible community space that encourages both spontaneous and organized activities.
