We love this park! There is a great large open field to enjoy a sunny day picnic and a game of catch. There is a great dock for dogs and kids to jump off of and take a cool dip in the lake.

Parks & Nature

The PNW is filled with beauty and this hike is one of the most beautiful! The Staircase Rapids loop is approx 4 miles round trip and has some gorgeous views of the Skokimish River. It's a relatively easy hike and a perfect place to visit for a quick day trip.
