There is a lot of construction around this area including power plant construction all along the Snoqualmie River and observation deck construction in Snoqualmie Falls Park itself. It's a little disappointing since there is only one access point to the falls. However, the falls are huge and magnificent this time of year and they are always a treat no matter... More

My fondest childhood memories were walking down to the bottom of Snoqualmie Falls, especially since I was born in the little hospital in Snoqualmie in the 70's. So imagine my disappointment when the Snoqualmie Falls is all fenced off due to construction this May visit. They are still beautiful, but the construction took away from my experience by not being... More

They are beautiful! There are nice hiking/biking trails nearby as well. I HIGHLY recommend staying at the Salish Lodge right by the Falls. More

Approximately one hour drive northeast of Tacoma, easy to find and no hiking required. The true observation spot is closed until 2013 for improvement, but still several areas you can see the falls. The Samish Lodge sits at the top an off to the side of the fall. Thirty minutes tops is plenty of time. You can eat at the... More

I was glad that it was a nice day and a relatively short drive as it was a relatively short visit. The falls themselves are amazing but the amount of construction they have going on reduces the available viewing area and the chance to really sit and appreciate the falls. More

This place is beautiful - truly a natural wonder. What an amazing view...this is a place everyone should see. There are also plenty of stores & restaurants nearby. It's perfect to take a break to eat lunch & then head back for a little more time at the falls. More

The area all around the falls is beautiful as well as the falls. The mist over the falls creates rainbows, if you are lucky to get a little bit of sun to shine when you are there. There are old trains all along the road up to the falls. My daughter has taken her son, who is 4 and a... More

A must-see area if possible when visiting the Seattle Area. A great and powerful waterfall that is accessible even to those with limited mobility as you can drive right to it, with ramps, etc. to overlooks. More
