An outdoorsy suburb surrounding Larson Lake
Lake Hills is a Bellevue suburb east of downtown Seattle near Lake Sammamish. Grade schools here are part of the award-winning Bellevue School District, ranked by Niche as the No. 1 school district in Washington State. Bellevue College is on the south side of the neighborhood, and residents can shop at Lake Hills Village or on Main Street. There are several green spaces like the trails at Larson Lake or the Samena Swim & Recreation Club. “I would say that the Lake Hills area definitely has a 'neighborhood' feel,” says Scott Polovitch-Davis, executive director of the Samena Swim & Recreation Club. “I’ve lived in the area for 30 years... when the weather’s nice the parks and sidewalks are full of friendly walkers, runners and dog-walkers, and folks often wave or say ‘hi’ if you pass while they’re strolling or working in their yards.”
Many Lake Hills residents put a lot of time and energy into manicuring their curb appeal.

Swim and play at the Samena Swim & Recreation Club
In the heart of the neighborhood is the Samena Swim & Recreation Club. “Samena Club was founded when the Lake Hills neighborhood was first being developed in the 1950’s, we’re definitely a big part of the neighborhood!” Polovitch-Davis says. “I can’t tell you how many times, when I mention where I work, that people say, ‘I grew up swimming there!’” Locals can swim laps, play outside or join one of many classes or programs that the club has to offer. Lake Hills Greenbelt is a large city park, with trails and community gardens on 16th Street. Hit the links against a backdrop of forested hills at the Glendale Country Club. Robinswood Community Park on the south side of town has sports fields and, most notably, the Robinswood House, a space for weddings and events. Locals can also take a walk on the Lake to Lake Trail to get from Larsen Lake to Phantom Lake.

During peak blueberry season in summer, families get together and pick berries at Larsen Lake Blueberry Farm.

Other events include “...our annual holiday bazaar, a health and fitness fair, our Halloween Spooktacular, a Polar Plunge and Pancake Breakfast, underwater and flashlight egg hunts at our Spring Festival, and other fun events for our members and the community.”

For running errands around town “...the I-90,520, and 405 freeways make a U-shape around Lake Hills, so it’s easy to commute and get around,” Morton says. “I can get to a high-end shopping mall at Bellevue Square or get to Trader Joes or Costco or the French Bakery or the Asian Market quickly. I’ve got the entire gamut of everything I want to do within 10 to 20 minutes from my home.” Closer to home, the Lake Hills Village is an outdoor shopping mall with restaurants, shops, and the Lake Hills Library.

Commutes to Seattle and the new East Link Rail
Downtown Bellevue, with many attractions like its botanical garden and arts museum, is about 4 miles west of town. Downtown Seattle is 11 miles west via Interstate 90. “The two downsides are that it does rain a lot in Seattle, and traffic can get congested at rush hour, but a lot of tech people work from home and only have to commute two to three days per week,” Morton says. “Sound Transit is expanding the East Link Rail on April 24th. That means it will only take 12 minutes to commute on the train from Bellevue Main Station to Microsoft in Redmond.” The Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) is 16 miles south via Interstate 405, and closer to home locals can get to the Overlake Medical Center via the Lake Hills Connector or Northeast 8th Street about 4 miles away.
Lake Hills is conveniently positioned close enough to Downtown Bellevue for easy access.
Lake Hills is positioned between Lake Sammamish and Lake Washington in Bellevue.
