There are 475 picnic tables, 75 barbeque grills and two volleyball courts that are available first come, first serve.

Contrary to Google search: as of April 2026, there are NOT any indoor, heated showers at Sunset Beach. The only public showers are outside.

Lake Sammamish is a wonderful lake with incredibly beautiful scenery, perfect for unwinding after a busy day. It's not too crowded, and the park feels like a private garden where you can enjoy time with your family. We enjoyed playing badminton there.
