Kirkland's waterfront - dining, boating, shopping

Kirkland is a city located on the East shoreline of Lake Washington, directly across the water from North Seattle. Kirkland's waterfront and downtown have the feel of a small town, with public parks, small restaurants, shops, and a walkable downtown core.

The lakefront park and boat launch are very popular in summer, as well as the organized downtown events in the summer. Daily boat moorage is available at Kirkland's docks, with a minimal fee for overnight moorage. Home to Costco's birthplace (Kirkland brand), there are many businesses that keep the job market healthy in this mid-sized town.

Home prices near the water are high, as to be expected, but become very reasonable as you travel further North. To the East of Kirkland is Redmond, and to the South is Bellevue.
