Edmonds City Park — Attraction in Edmonds

I love getting wet at Hazel Miller spay park at Edmonds City park and having a 50 gallon bucket dousing me with water but but the park is located in approximately to the Puget Sound and the breezes makes me cold and the water in the bucket is real cold. The breezes cut through me like a knife making me extremely cold. Burr!!! The kids getting wet under the bucket get real excited and jump up and down. They sometimes count or say dump dump dump and it's tipping and scream when the water dumps them then they run in different directions screaming. Mostly the girls scream. It's amazing to see the kids running from different parts of the spray park to do it again even when they're cold. I go there to get wet only. I count how many times the bucket douse me with water. The kids and adults are amazed that I do that and ask me what number I'm at. My record is 100 times overall. I broke my 2018 summer record of 70 in the summer of 2019. The spray park stops functioning in September and won't function again until the following year in late May to early June depending on the weather. I don't visit the park when the spray park is done for the year. Overall though, the whole park is nice. Edmonds City Park is well taken care of and I wish I could live in Edmonds but it's too expensive. There are nice houses and apartments in vicinity of the park. The whole city is beautiful. I live too far away from the park to enjoy it all year round. The Hazel Miller Spray Park in the Edmonds City Park is absolutely awesome! I'm sad every year it closes for the year. It closes because the tempetures go down and it gets cold and rainy in the fall. I'll be back at Hazel Miller Spray Park until it closes for the year!! I'm going to try to endure the cold water and the breezes, which makes it hard to compete with the cold water and breezes to break my record of 100 before the...

Great outdoor park near the Edmonds downtown ferry. This park has a lower and an upper section. The upper section has a large open field with a large grassy knoll that descends to the lower park.

The lower park has a large spray park area with a bucket drop (I haven't visited this part of the park in detail, but if looks like fun). Next to this is a playground area with various contraptions to keep kids occupied.

The restrooms are spartan but appear well maintained, like any park restrooms.

This park is well shaded and is mostly dog-prohibited since people occupy the open spaces for playing games and having picnic.

Some spots are a bit marshy in the low lying areas.

It has several shelters which can be reserved with BBQ grills next to them. There is parking in the park which can be scarce and street parking outside the park.

This park is VERY popular and can accomodate many people. If you want a good spot in the summer, head out early and...
