Overlooking Sammamish Lake, Idylwood Park is a great place for picnicking, swimming or just relaxing and taking in the lovely scenery. Dogs are welcome as long as guests use the cleanup bags provided. Located close to businesses such as Microsoft, Safeco and Nintendo, Idylwood features a swimming beach that features a bathhouse and restrooms. Nautically-minded guests can launch car-top boast from the park's small ramp. Park authorities also encourage visitors to "spread out and play a game in the large open space or explore Idylwood's playground area." Picnic shelters and picnic tables encourage festive get-togethers. Parking here is plentiful, too.
