If you are looking for a local lake that is easy to get to, great for families, and you can paddle board in, then we have just the lake for you! Located in the Seven Lakes area near Lakewood, WA, Lake Ki is a great spot to stop when you need a quick dip in some cool and refreshing water. It’s great for kids because it has a shallow area that allows the kids to get in at their pace. It’s also very scenic once you take your paddle board out to the center of the lake and are surrounded by trees and quaint lake houses. Plus, it’s less than a five minute drive to grab a burger and fries at the local burger shop!
Lake Whatcom is located in the vicinity of Bellingham, WA, and is perfect for all of your boating needs! You can spend hours cruising around on your boat, in your kayak, or swimming! The versatility in water sports that this lake offers is what we love about it. There are also several parks that you can picnic at and several trails nearby to walk your dogs while taking in the views. Need food for your picnic? That’s great! There are multiple grocery stores and restaurants that offer quick food to-go that are only a 15 minute drive away!
