PICNIC SHELTERS

Many picnic shelters in King County Parks require reservations to guarantee the space. Electricity, sinks, running water, and barbeque grills are available in certain shelters. Seating and standing capacity varies. Contact King County Parks for more specific details.

Tolt-MacDonald Barn Shelter
Renovated in 1995, this charming historic Dutch Colonial barn serves as a picnic shelter popular for corporate or family events and outdoor weddings. Adjacent to parking and service drop-off areas, it is an easily accessible location for large gatherings. The open meadow next to the barn is perfect for tossing a frisbee, pick-up sports games or even additional outdoor seating. Learn more about Tolt-MacDonald Park
