Small waterfront park on Mercer Island with intimate shoreline, pilings and Lake Washington views toward Seattle/Bellevue. Great for sunrise reflections, cloudscapes and long exposures of ripple-free water. Easy access from 97th Ave SE with limited parking; no entry fee. Weekday mornings and golden hour provide best light and fewer visitors; windy afternoons can create dynamic waves. Paths are short and mostly flat — wheelchair access varies by spot.
