BOTANICAL GARDEN @ BELLEVUE…read more Parking is available right out front, which makes this place super accessible. There are also designated handicap parking spots. My friend and I visited on a Friday around 2 PM, and there were a few spots open, so getting in was really easy. I loved how simple everything was to navigate, there's even a map available when you enter. Entry and parking are both completely free, which is a huge plus. We walked along the trail and I'd recommend spending about 2-3 hours here if you want to take your time and fully enjoy it. We had to speed-run our visit because we had another errand afterward, but it was still incredibly beautiful. I highly recommend stopping by the bridge, it was very therapeutic and relaxing to walk across. There are plenty of benches and seating areas along the way, perfect for taking breaks or just soaking in nature. The quality of the space is amazing, with a wide variety of rocks, trees, and scenery that make the whole experience feel peaceful. There are also bathrooms located at the front, and you're never too far from other people, which made it feel comfortable and safe. Overall, I definitely recommend stopping by this place.

Geese were laying in the field, the lake was quiet, kids and their parents were playing in the playground, and people were sitting out in the pergola with picnic benches, enjoying the last days of summer. We walked the loop and the dogs go to sniff and pee to their hearts' content. The only reason why they lost a star ws because of the large amount of goose poop and the kids screaming in the playground kinda got to me, which is not the park's fault, but it's also part of my experience, so know that if you want to visit.

Public Park??? Not really!…read more I'm not prone to giving bad reviews but after a year of trying to go to this park, I think they deserve what I'm about to say . The good news is that it is small, quiet and great place to go walking or walk your dog or have a nice meal at one of the benches.... but only when you can get in. The bad news is that it's closed to the public almost 80% of the year unless you go to one of the paid events that they hold there. While I understand that they have events for 4-H and the yearly fair they hold there. They have a bunch of other events that they shut the entire park down to the general public for. Don't get me wrong .... I'm all about having events for the public. But when it's one of the only parks within about 20 miles of where we live and we like to go there, but the gates are usually shut because they're setting up for some event 80%+ times of the year, we just have gotten used to not even going there anymore. It would be really nice if the county would make a park where citizens could go to relax, walk and play regularly. Simply not fair to the taxpayers who pay for this park and cannot use it regularly.

When I managed to put some spider cracks in the gel coat of my kayak, I asked on a local Facebook…read moregroup for repair recommendations and was barraged by people saying great things about Rhonda at Kayakers Go Coastal. They were right. My lime green kayak from a less-common manufacturer was a hard shade to match, but Rhonda re-did the work around 5 times to get as close as possible. She was friendly and great to deal with, and the price was more than fair in my opinion. When picking up the repaired boat, I asked about helmets and she was super helpful, showing me several helmets and caps, finding a good fit, and having my choice shipped to me a couple of days later since she didn't have the color I wanted in stock. She was also helpful with a problem with my backband. (And she took Apple Pay, which was convenient for me.)

Something I've always wanted to try & I am sure glad we did. Due to the CrowdStrike/Microsoft…read moresoftware debacle, our flight from Chicago to Seattle was canceled less than 12 hours before takeoff. That made our original reservations impossible for us to make. I sent an email & Steve was very quick to respond (within 15 minutes on a Saturday night) and move our reservations to the next day (all within 25 minutes). Thank you so much, Steve! We are a family of 4 and all first-time rafters from Illinois. We ran the Skagit River of Class 2's & 3's. Eric was our guide. Carl was the guide for our partner rafting family from Georgia. Eric was awesome and made us all feel very comfortable. His knowledge & easy to follow instructions kept us all in the raft. This was a very thrilling ride for beginners with some slower floating time to just take in the pure beauty. Now my 14yo son & I have the itch to tackle some 4's & 5's - my wife & daughter said they'll pass (though they truly loved this Skagit run). If you are on the fence of going - stop thinking about it and GO! You will not regret it!!! Thanks, Eric, for a wonderful trip!!!

This entire experience was terrible. I bought a groupon (who actually has great customer service…read morebtw) for class 3 and 4 white water rafting. We booked the rafting trip one month in advance through email communication with Captain Dave. The day before our rafting trip, I emailed him to confirm the meeting location. He emailed back saying the trip was cancelled. Well, gee, thanks for telling us before we drove an hour to Index, WA. That should have been a red flag right there that this was not a reliable company. But I really wanted to go white water rafting as I have never been before. So I scheduled out another trip for a date a month in the future. I again emailed the day before to confirm the meeting location. I received an email back saying the meeting location had changed, to a location that was two and a half hours from where I lived. Well, once again, thanks for letting me know in advance! I'm just glad I had the common sense to email and check both times. I should have taken that as the second red flag. But again, I really wanted to go white water rafting. So we get to the meeting site today, and are told that there is no white water left anywhere in the state of Washington. Well, okay. But then five minutes later, another tour guide told us it's because they don't have the permits to go up the river where there might be white water. Why are you running a company for white water rafting if you don't have the right permits?? I was told through email that the trip would be 3-4 hours long, which is good because I had a meeting I had to get back to in Seattle at 3:30pm and the trip should end at 1:30pm at the latest. We ended up floating on a river for 6 hours in the hot sun. I missed my meeting, was starving since no warning was given it would be 6 hours and no food or water was provided, and my boyfriend was very sunburnt since, once again, didn't expect to be floating on a river for 6 hours in direct sunlight. tldr; stay away from this company because they will cancel trips the day before, lie to you because they don't actually have white water rafting when they say they do, and float you an extended amount of time without warning or food or water. The tour guides are really great though and I'm sorry they have to work for this kind of company
