Things to Do

Outdoorsy residents have plenty of options in the community. Beaver Lake Park covers 83 acres, including a large forest and many trails to explore. On the north side of the park, access to Beaver Lake, a large meadow, and open, grassy areas give rise to a peaceful atmosphere perfect for relaxation or a leisurely walk. Meanwhile, the west side is more active with an off-leash dog park, three sports fields, a picnic area, and a playground.

Surrounding Beaver Lake are many hiking trails for outdoor enthusiasts. Visitors can trek around the Beaver Lake landscape on a quiet path along the Sauk River. The trail crosses one of the small Beaver Lakes over a bridge and ends with a gorgeous view of the surrounding mountains. While this is an excellent hike all year, it is best in early spring or winter when the leafless trees allow for better views.

Every October, the Rotary Club of Sammamish, along with Scare Productions and the City of Sammamish, puts on the Nightmare at Beaver Lake, the largest indoor and outdoor haunted house in Seattle. A 100% volunteer-operated event, the haunted house raises money for grants to nonprofit organizations and youth scholarships.

Founded in 1955, the Beaver Lake Community Club is the perfect place for the neighbors to get to know each other. The organization has been active in the community and works towards environmental causes, such as limiting power boats from the lake in favor of peace and quiet. Some of their annual community events include the Easter Egg Hunt and the Holiday Party.
