A wonderful retreat from city life. Restaurant on main level is a bit upscale (reservations recommended), however climb the stairs to "The Attic" for a cozy, warm winter evening, with beautiful sunset views of the Cascade mountain range and the falls. Tasty happy hour fare and acoustic music on Fridays. The Lodge also has a luxurious spa - mmmm!

Fabulous musicals from Broadway and originals, in one of the most beautiful Theaters in the Northwest - if not the world. Intimate and elegant, great staff, and great views from all seats. Some theater-goers are dressed to the "9s" - but alas a good portion of 21st century audience members are much more casual.

This paved trail follows the Sammamish River (locals call it the Sammamish Slough) from Marymoore Park to Woodinville wine country and beyond. Connects with Burke-Gilman Trail in Bothell and provides a wonderful route to the University of Washington. The trail is mostly level and great for walking, running, skating and/or bicycling.
