Mill Creek Living
 Mill Creek is a community that comes together for block parties and tree plantings, for holiday caroling and parades, and the various neighborhoods remain a destination for arts and antiques enthusiasts. As a whole, the Pacific Northwest is a recreational playground with a temperate year-round climate. Outdoor adventures include camping and boating in Wallace Falls State Park, Wenberg State Park, or the 2 million acre Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest that covers the western slope of the Cascades. From whale watching at a saltwater park to bird watching, kayaking, river rafting, mountain climbing, picnicking at a lakeside park, or observing wildlife on an estuarine sanctuary, Mill Creek and the greater Seattle surrounding areas have limitless opportunities to offer.
The residents agree that Seattle’s combination of urban sophistication and easygoing charm, with access to spectacular outdoor recreation make it a great place to live. A major cultural center, its sophistication is evident in its architecture, fashion, and arts. Surrounding Seattle are the glorious mountains of the Olympic and Cascade ranges and the seafood-rich waters of the Pacific Ocean. The Cascade Mountains, an hour drive east, have trails and peaks for hikers and backpackers. Snoqualmie Pass attracts downhill skiers, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and snowboarders. To the west of the city is Puget Sound, where sailors, kayakers, scuba divers, jet skiers and anglers enjoy the water. To the west, the Olympic Mountains provide countless activities for adventure seekers. Attractions in the Seattle area are as varied as its populace. One can catch a professional sports team at a Mariners or Seahawks game, head up the Space Needle for 360-degree city views or take in one of Seattle Center's many ground-level attractions. Some of these include the Pacific Science Center, Children's Museum, Experience Music Project or Science Fiction Museum. Visit the famous Pike Place Market and wander through the fish, fruit, flower and crafts stalls, and watch the fishmongers toss their hefty catch right before your eyes. Take the steps down to the docks and visit the Odyssey Maritime Discovery Center or the Seattle Aquarium. Art galleries and antiques shops are prominent in Pioneer Square and all ages find both the Woodland Park Zoo and the Ballard Locks fascinating. If museums are more your speed, visit the Frye Art Museum, Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture, Henry Art Gallery or Museum of History & Industry. Or, head northeast to taste the home-grown wines of the Woodinville vineyards. Whether it's the cultural and recreational opportunities, the friendly people or the beautiful scenery, Mill Creek affords a quality of life second to none. Mill Creek offers the best of both worlds with the comfort and ease of quiet family living against a spectacular backdrop, blended with world-class outdoor recreation and diverse culture of Seattle. |
