Bonney Lake

Set in picturesque Pierce County on the western edge of the Cascades, Bonney Lake isn’t far from busy cities like Seattle and Tacoma, but it feels worlds away! With plenty of parks—over 142 acres in total—trails, and opportunity for outdoor recreation, this is the kind of quiet, small-town where you really get to know your neighbors, and where gorgeous glimpses of the natural surroundings—including Lake Tapps, the town’s namesake Lake Bonney, and nearby Mount Rainier—can still surprise you with their beauty, even after years living in the area. The area also boasts highly ranked public schools and a booming population—it’s estimated the population has risen about 20% during the last decade—making it a fast-growing and highly desirable place to call home, with ample opportunities for new residential development.
