Many of coastal Washington’s most popular parks are major tourist attractions, but located near smaller Kenmore is a hidden gem filled with surprises for the whole family. Saint Edward State Park is a secluded area that used to be home to a monastery, but today it welcomes locals and tourists alike to a sanctuary filled with kid-friendly attractions. This summer, why not get away from it all and discover what this family-friendly park has waiting for you?
Saint Edward State Park is one of the best retreats in the coastal Washington area. It's a great place for a picnic - and so much more.
The shoreline is a popular place for waterfront recreation - you'll usually find fishers reeling in the catch of the day, and boats are always sailing along the peaceful waters.
The site of this park used to be home to an old-monastery, and the mighty building still stands today - now playing host to a high-end Pacific Northwest restaurant and lodge.
Designed with the input of local kids, it's a great place for creative play, with enough slides and hidden corners that kids can easily spend half the day exploring it.
