Martha Lake Airport park has so many cool things to do! There really is something for everyone.
There are trails for cyclists, and a large dog park for your furry friends. As well as 2 large fenced off sports fields that are well-maintained - one grass field for soccer, football, volleyball, etc... and one high-fence baseball & softball field.
Next to the baseball field there's a big toy, and nice playground equipment for your littles... and right next to that is the bathroom! Suffice it to this park is well-designed. Lol!
As of this writing 8/2020, the bathrooms are closed due to COVID19, but eventually they'll reopen. For now, there are a few Porta-potties near the bathrooms. I'm not sure how that makes it better 😬 as nobody can wash their hands, but that's the situation. Bring your own sanitizer.
And then you have the skate park, covered area, and glacial boulder. It's a really great space. I see bikes there, and skateboards, tons of scooters, and sometimes rollerblading. Really anything that rolls goes!
As for age-range, I see kids from about age 3 - 30 out there skating! And it's a fun time for all. Bring your helmet, and your bottled water, and get ready to have a fun time! People usually watch out for each other, and especially for the littles... but it is a majority teenage hang-out. You might hear some occasional swearing - no biggie.
Parking is free and adequate. Opens at dawn,...

The restroom is winterized and closed November-March. The big rock in the park has its own history. The history of the park is :The Ed Hauter family ran a small airport on the land from the late 1950s to the late 1990s. At one point the facility hosted about 80 aircraft at its hangars and tie-down spots. The Hauter family sold most of its property to Snohomish County in 2000 passing up higher offers from developers who could have built more than 100 homes. Park construction began...

This is IMO the best park in Lynnwood. It literally has everything: a playground, a skate park, a dog park, a baseball diamond, a bicycle-learning area, large grassy fields, woodsy trails, a pond, and even a glacial erratic (a huge freakin' rock)! No other park in the area has all that. Keep in mind, though, some of those facilities are still closed to the public.
My family's favorite thing about this park is that we can pick wild berries with relative ease all summer long. Yes, blackberry bushes run rampant everywhere in WA, but that doesn't mean the berries are easily accessible everywhere; and not all parks have salmonberry and thimbleberry bushes.
We are very grateful for Martha Lake...
