Eagle signs in Kirkland
We lost our nesting pair that resided in Heritage Park three and a half years ago. A young eaglet fell and died there and the parents abandoned the nest and left the area. Since then, we've only had occasional visitors to the park.
Today, maybe a good sign. I spotted a female which was joined shortly by a male. Then about 200 yards away was a young eagle, less than 5 years old, that had not gotten its white feathers yet. The male then attacked the youngster and chased it away. Hopefully, this was territorial behavior, and a sign of future nesting.

This is my favorite park in Kirkland.

There isn't much to it, but I love that its usually quiet and less populated, which makes for a great place to read and lay out in the sun since no one is around. It's walking distance to the downtown area, and parking can be found around the nearby neighborhood or along the street. I also like that this park is by the water, for the scenic view.
There is a large grass area where I go to read and lay out, and a few benches that overlook to Seattle along the path. There's also a small garden area with a walking trail and benches there too. It seems to serve more for the nearby neighborhood than the downtown crowd. Just know that there aren't any public restrooms here, but fortunately the location isn't far from the business centre. It's a nice, neighborhood park that is often quiet and peaceful.

Heritage Park is a lovely place to go for a leisurely walk.

It gives you a great view of the water, there's plenty of places to sit and take in the beauty of Lake Washington, and it's a great spot to watch the fireworks come 4th of July. It's very well kept and has multiple paths to interchange with, so you're not stuck walking the same trip each time (unless that's what you're going for!) It's a great spot to get your exercise in, without feeling like you're overdoing it.

My favorite park in Kirkland!

Just an expanse of wonderfully soft, green grass with a walking path around the perimeter and views of Lake Washington through the pines that border the western edge. It's the perfect spot for lazily reading in the grass, picnicking, playing croquet, or just relaxing. Never crowded and less frequented than the waterfront parks along Lake Street, you can always find some solitude here. I've stopped by almost every day this summer to stroll, daydream, or polish off a novel.

Heritage Park is a beautiful recreational addition to the city.

The other day my boyfriend and I decided to drive down to Kirkland and just explore the city for the day. Kirkland is one of the quiet places you can go to get away from the usual busyness eye sores of Seattle.
Heritage Park is a beautiful recreational addition to the city. It offers amazing views of the water, along with glittering forests of trees and nice clear walkways. Its a great place to bring the dog for a walk, play some tennis, let the kids run around or just go for a stroll. The Heritage Building is a lovely white historical building with giant pillars guarding the front entrance. Its surrounded by a little opening as well as a beautiful garden. Its filled with glorious flowers in bounty of all different colors. Its really a glorious park to adventure through. I had a lovely evening spent there and would most definitely return again, this time with a picnic packed!

This is defiantly a great little park in Kirkland.

It's wide open with a big grassy field to throw a frisbie or football around or just to sit and relax. On the outer perimeter there are plenty of benches and picnic tables if you want to sit and enjoy a nice lunch, or even read a book. On the western edge of the park it is lined with trees and you can get some views of Lake Washington throught the trees.
The few times I have been here, it's been very quiet and there hasn't been a lot of people out enjoying it. There has always been plenty of open parking and the parking lot is a desent size for the size of the park. Downtown Kirkland and the waterfront are just a short little walk from the park. Next to the park is Heritage Hall, which is a beautiful old looking hall that you can rent out for events. There are no restrooms located in the park, so if you have to you will either have to walk to Starbucks or one of the local shops or walk to the waterfront, there is one located there.

Nice view of Seattle. Life is short and days like this seem like a good way to spend my lazy Monday afternoon. Baby friendly park, plenty of parking. Date visited was 3-25-13 and it was nothing short of Amazing..

Pure, unadulterated open space.

The single best thing about this park is the pure, unadulterated open space.
That it is hardly ever in any way crowded, has ample parking access, picnic tables spread out enough from each other, and gorgeous views out onto the water are all on it's plus side.
There are not public bathrooms at this particular park, though, FYI.
There are however at the Marina and at Waverly, which as the crow walks, Heritage falls in between.

I will be back with a good book.

In one of my walks and picture taking adventures, I was on my way to the Kirkland Marina and stopped by Heritage park. Beautiful Park! Wide open spaces for laying in the sun, reading a book, having a picnic. Dogs of all kinds walk with their owners along a nice path. Views of Lake Washington are beautiful with shots of the seattle skyline visable in the distance.
Things to know:
-Lots of parking available
-no public bathrooms available
-picnic tables scattered all over the park allows for a nice secluded lunch with a view of the lake
-good path leads down to marina
I will be back with a good book, a lunch and some ice tea to enjoy an afternoon.

Good location.
Posted by Katie O. on 06/30/2011
This past weekend I had some free time, so I decided to get off my butt and head out to bask in the warm rays of the June sun.
Heritage has plenty of parking for both cars and trailers (for the boat launch at the marina), and plenty of lawn for kids to run around like crazy.
I chose to sit quietly on a bench overlooking a trail and the shimmering waters of Lake Washington. It was peaceful and beautiful and I could probably have stayed there for hours on end.
This would be a great location for a picnic, or a place to bring your rugrats when you're tired of them sitting inside watching TV.
When I first read “Reprogram your mind for success training", I was going through a difficult time in my life in numerous ways. After reading this training and practicing the techniques, I gained a new perspective and consequently was able to lessen the impact of the tragedy and become more optimistic.
They did a super job. Honestly - my kitchen was a mess, but it was sparkling when they were finished! They were on time, efficient, and thorough. Would use their services again. Good expreience. I really liked the fact I got a reminder call the day before as I have a tendency to forget things.
Its crazy to see how dirty a house can get even when we are barely home, specially the windows. I tried cleaning on the weekends but i just simply couldn't, not because I'm lazy, but just because i also have many other things to do. So, last year, i gave Crystal Bright a call and they've been cleaning my house and windows weekly since then. They are professional, quick, respectful and they have ninja like skills. I really recommend them.
I called Crystal Bright Cleaning Service for a quote and they gave me an approximate price over the phone. It was easy and there was no pressure. When the cleaners came to my home they did an excellent job! They really paid attention to detail and cleaned and dusted places that I had been neglecting. We did a walk through and the house looked amazing. When it came to the bill, they only charged for the time that they were there which was lower than the original estimate! How often does that happen? This company does an excellent job, is reasonably priced and the cleaners are friendly and efficient. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a break from cleaning!
