Lake Cassidy is a rural and residential area covered in forests and farmland, with hundreds of residential properties throughout. Lake Cassidy’s namesake is semi-secluded, yet open to the public and offers multiple forms of recreation. “You have a lot of privacy because you’re out in the country, but you’re also minutes from amenities,” says Sheila Lair, a real estate agent with Keller Williams, who has about 20 years of experience. Marysville is about 5 miles west of the area, and Lake Stevens is around 7 miles south, providing easy access to commerce.

Diverse single-family housing options
Homes in Lake Cassidy are either lined along residential streets within a subdivision, found along country roads or sit along the perimeter of the neighborhood’s namesake. Thick trees surround most properties and provide a sense of seclusion. Ranch-style homes with simple vinyl exteriors are common, built between the 1970s and 2000s. These cost around $550,000 to $825,000. There are also custom-built single and multistory homes from the 2000s to 2020s. These properties have a New Traditional design with Craftsman features such as pointed roofs and stone accents. Some of the new construction houses also have tucked-in garages. Prices range from $770,000 to $1.1 million, depending on property size.
Craftsman estates from the 1990s and 2000s are found on large lots within a gated community. Most have front gables, pointed roofs and picture windows. These properties go for $1 million to $1.3 million.

Exploring Lake Cassidy’s waterfront and nearby city parks
Lake Cassidy’s namesake offers multiple opportunities for outdoor recreation. A public boat launch allows motorized watercraft on the lake, and fishing is a popular pastime. The Centennial Trail is a paved, multi-use trail for hiking and biking that has an access point to Lake Cassidy. The trail stretches 30 miles and has two additional trailheads in the area. A soft-surface equestrian path follows alongside the paved one. “There’s also a river nearby that you can always go fishing and floating along, using innertubes and rafts. Though, it runs fast in the spring,” Lair says, regarding Catherine Creek.
The surrounding cities have more recreation a short drive away. Jennings Park is about 4 miles west in Marysville and has two playgrounds, one of which is dinosaur-themed, baseball fields and courts for basketball and pickleball. A large red barn is found on the grounds, most notable for the bronze rooster statue out front. The Cedarcrest Golf Course is nearby and open to the public. Lake Stevens’ Lundeen Park is around 5 miles south of Lake Cassidy and provides its own lakeside amenities, including a public dock and swimming area. There’s also a playground and picnic shelter. North Cove Park is 7 miles away along Lake Stevens and has a boat launch and boardwalk that reaches a public fishing pier.
Residents can enjoy a walk along the water with their dog at Lundeen Park.
