What’s Nearby
Easy access to the Chamber’s Bay Park - open field with picnic tables and the Playground by the Sound - Fenced-in playground helps keep the kiddos from roaming. The equipment is nicely maintained and varied; swings, tunnels, slides, and monkey bars. There's a shaded picnic area on a concrete slab. One table is completely covered and the other is open, plus a few more tables out in the grassy areas. The bathroom is across the field, but is close.
The Curran Apple Orchard, a community delight, is a mile away and has become a local hobby for many. There are over 200 apple trees with more than 15 varieties. Every summer, locals look forward to the Cider Squeeze, celebrating the year's growth. Enjoy a local band, refreshments and pie!
The Titlow Beach Marine Preserve - home to Titlow Park which is perfect for the most incredible views of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, evening walks along the 1.3 mile beach front and forest route and some splendid sunsets. This is also a haven for kayakers for an easy launch and if you’re lucky, you’ll get to see some playful seals and occasional orca pods. The newly installed Titlow Park Sprayground is a summertime favorite to splash, play or cool off and is free to use!
Feel the fresh breeze on your face at Boathouse 19, one of the best places to grab a bite on the water! Take the boat out on the sound, take in the sights and then come back in for some steamed clams or crispy calamari during happy hour or stay for dinner and enjoy the cedar planked salmon or octopus tacos. They have a rotating selection of 14 craft beers and delectable banana split. Right by is Narrows Brewing Co., a local brewery selling craft beer. They have an evolving, experimental line of one-offs alongside taproom offerings. They have options for canned and bottled beer takeout too!
