Between Lake Tapps and the White River
Just a few miles from Lake Tapps and adjacent to the White River, Lakeland, 30 miles south of Downtown Seattle, is part of Auburn. The community offers a slowed-down pace, natural features and other attributes. "Among other reasons, you might choose Lakeland if you're a new homeowner looking for a place to raise a family," says Corey Lofton, a real estate broker with the Washington Real Estate Team with Kelly Right Real Estate. Lofton, who also has experience in the mortgage industry, says proximity to the water and great parks are two of the area's highlights.
Lake Tapps Park is the perfect place to enjoy a summers day with the family.

Homes at River Rock and Mill Pond
The area is mainly residential, with single-family homes built in the 1990s through the early 2000s, many of which have been updated. Houses with 2,000 to 3,000 square feet range from $560,000 to $790,000. "You can get an affordable home in Lakeland Hills but still be close to North Seattle," Lofton says. "$650,000 in here will run you like a million in Seattle." Another plus is the low monthly homeowners association fees — typically less than $30. "They have an umbrella HOA that covers that whole area, maintaining the parks and trails, making them look nice," Lofton says.
In the River Rock Auburn development, newly constructed houses with modern designs and river views cost $1.2 million to $1.3 million. Townhouses and condos at Mill Pond at Lakeland were built in the mid-1990s, cost $350,000 to $400,000 and have monthly HOA fees of about $500, which go toward common area maintenance and lawn service.

Auburn Riverside High has a 400-seat theatre
Kids may attend public schools like Ilalko Elementary School, which has a B grade from Niche or Lakeland Hills Elementary, with an A-minus. Over 82% of teachers at both schools have a master's degree or higher. Mount Baker Middle School has a C grade, and Auburn Riverside High School has a B-plus. In addition to athletics, music and clubs, the high school excels in its drama department and has its own 400-seat venue, the Auburn Riverside Theatre, or ART. The theatre also allows bookings for other performances, events and community group gatherings.

Roegner Park and the White River Trail
Roegner Park features two fenced-in fields for dogs and a portion of the White River Trail. The paved, multiuse trail runs from the East Valley Highway through Roegner and onto Game Farm Wilderness Park. Lakeland Hills Park has walking paths and a playground for children.
About 4 miles southeast, 80-acre Lake Tapps Park offers a beach and recreation by the water. "It's a man-made lake. People go there to relax and chill," Lofton says. There are several boat ramps, swimming areas, and a scenic view of Mount Rainier. Tapps Island Golf Course, located inside a private homeowners association, is open to the public, with tee times by reservation.

Lakeland Town Center, White River Junction
Just south of Lake Tapps Parkway, Lakeland Town Center has a well-rounded variety of businesses and restaurants. A whiskey flight and a burger at Stack 571 or a hand-tossed pie from The Rock Wood Fired Pizza make a night out memorable. Teriyaki, tacos and doughnuts are available at eateries in the area. Haggen has grocery picks like high-quality meat, sustainable seafood and an in-house bakery, plus Pacific Northwest-grown plants, a coffee bar and a pharmacy.
Heading up A Street, across the river, there are many more places to choose from around the White River Junction shopping center. "Lakeland is very central, so if you want to be more in the city for shopping, there's also the outlet mall," Lofton says. The Outlet Collection Seattle, located in Auburn along state Routes 18 and 167, includes dozens of shops and businesses, with everything from the Nike Clearance Store and Polo Ralph Lauren Factory Store to the Auburn Valley Humane Society Cat Cafe and Gotcha!, an indoor arena play space with foam dart action.
