Log Boom Park

this is agood place for relax. beautiful view and lot of wild duck arroud you. better take some bread~

My Plein Air painting group tried out Log Boom Park and were pleasantly surprised by everything it had to offer. Painters have lakescapes, boats, float planes (Kenmore Air is right next door, with planes taking off and landing frequently), and swampy areas along the shoreline (think ducks, turtles, and kayakers). In addition, the park is very wheelchair accessible, with paved walkways and wooden docks allowing you to go almost everywhere anyone else does. People were seen fishing out on the docks… with success! A cutting edge playground made me wish my grandkids lived closer! We’ll definitely visit next they come to see us! The city of Kenmore has done a terrific job turning this little park into a jewel. They have even added historical/​nature signs to educate you about the location! In my opinion, Log Boom Park is a perfect location for the entire family.

Great 4^th of July setup put on by the city. Food trucks, ice cream, stuff for the kids, etc. Nice park otherwise with ‘clean enough for a park’ bathrooms, water fountain to fill your bottle, and a play area for kids. I really enjoy the long dock and the views with the Kenmore Air planes taking off and landing.

Easily our favorite new park! Nice modern playground, paved walking/​biking paths, close proximity to a huge lake pier you can walk out on, close to the air field (so if you have kids that love sea planes this place is awesome) and clean restroom facilities next to the playground which is a must with little ones. Just a perfect little spot!

I love parking here and heading in the Burke Gilman. The park provides a great end if ride encouragement to the kiddos. It has those really cool euro style playground equipments. They are cool but sometimes I think just some slides, swingsets and heaven forbid a merry go round would be fine.

Met a friend here yesterday for a picnic & a walk. I arrived early so I explored the area & used the clean facilities. We enjoyed sitting on one of the nice tables out near the boat marina. Unfortunately there were lots of yellow jackets flying around everywhere. Our lunch would have been much nicer had they not been there. Parks workers should spray for them.
We then set out on a little stroll to the South along the Burke. The repaving that was done recently made me itch to go home & get my Rollerblades & come back for a skate. Soon!!!
The playground is for little kids. No big swings. :(The dock is amazing! Can’t believe how long it is.
Look forward to my next visit. :)

Nice place to relax after a long bike ride on the burke-​gilman trail.
They have tables scattered around to enjoy a quick bite, as well as some historical signs and a playground. There is also a restroom that fairly clean nearby. Parking is alright, though it was almost full and stayed that way on a weekend afternoon.

This small park is very cute and well kept. It has bathrooms and a nice playground for kids 12 and under. It is also close to the docks and the Burke Gillman trail which is nice.

I absolutely adore this park.
They have a fair amount of parking, a neat dock to walk out on, lots of places to sit and eat and a fairly nice toy set up. I recommend going past the park toys and the bathrooms and heading down to one of the little areas along the water if you’re just looking for a nice area to sit in. Besides all of this, it’s on the trail, which makes it convenient and fun.
I’ve been going here my entire life and I’m going to keep on going to it!

We went to this park not expecting much, but was surprised that we had fun chillin’ by the dock and feeding the ducks. Its not much but its a nice go to park, away form the stresses of the daily grind.

Small yes but if you are losing your mind over summer break, there is a neat little play area to set your house monsters loose. Not your typical swings and teeter totters, the toys will likely lure you to play as well. It is good therapy until school starts again!
Fair warning: those upside down spinny plunger things might not let go of your adult-​sized bum. Weeeee!
I’d give it five stars if the park were bigger.

A great little spot to have lunch or just sit on the dock and read a book.
Good For: watching planes take-​off and land, picnics

This is a great birding spot. Walk out on the docks and let your worries melt away as you look at probably a half a dozen different species in the large rafts of ducks. Goldfinch flit in the trees. I also stop buy in the summer and take a break while riding my bike home from work on the Burke-​Gillman/​Lake Sammash trail.

This used to be the beginning of the Burke Gilman trail. It’s a simple park, nothing too fancy, but it has everything one would need before they head out along the trail — decent parking, cleanish bathrooms, a water fountain that works most of the time.
I’ll let you in on a little secret — if you are brave enough to go in the water and you head just a bit north, little minnows live there! They dart all over and you can get them to nibble at things. Although, one time, in Jr. High some guy ate one of them and I was scarred for life! Poor little minnow :(

A pleasant place to relax during a long ride from Bothell to Gasworks Park on the Burke-​Gilman Trail. This park perches on the edge of the northwest corner of Lake Washington and has great places to lay in the grass or wet the toes at the waters edge. Bathrooms (clean ones!) are available and water fountains quench the thirsty. During the 4^th of July it gives great views of all the private fireworks parties along the lake.

Logboom is the place where, in the middle of the day, you’ll find junior high school kids skipping school, smoking, and pushing each other in the water. While it’s not a very spacious park, it definitely has it’s upsides — beautiful view, bathrooms, and grass. What more do you need? I mean, really?

This park is an excellent entry point for the Burke-​Gilman trail. There is plenty of parking, bathroom facilities, and a small picnic area. The mile marker point is 13.5 miles from the start of the trail in Redmond at Marymoor Park.
