The Natural Swimming Hole At Lowell Johnson Park In Washington Will Take You Back To The Good Ole Days
Summer is almost here again. And while this year’s summer won’t be quite the same, you can still enjoy the beautiful season from your own backyard. The Pacific Northwest has arguably the best summers in the country, often reaching temperatures just high enough to warrant a swim. This year, head out to Anderson Island and check out the swimming hole at Lowell Johnson Park.

Lowell Johnson Park is one of the most popular spots on the island, especially when the weather is pleasant.
One is meant to be more of a place for young children to play, while the older kids and adults are encouraged to enjoy the other.
This park doesn't have lifeguards, so if you go, make sure everyone is accounted for at all times.
This has been a gathering place for years, and it actually might have been used for bathing before electric power was introduced to the island in the 1960s.
If you'd rather avoid a potential crowd, come on a weekday and go for a swim before lunch.
And since the ferry ride to this little island is such a beautiful one, it's a pleasure to travel to Anderson Island.
When you visit Lowell Johnson Park, please remember to leave your dogs at home and keep your physical distance from other families. Enjoy this little piece of Pacific Northwest paradise.
