Three Lakes in Snohomish County is a community with low-key or luxury living options, all in a nature-filled environment with forests and lakeside scenery. Snohomish and Monroe are within 8 miles. Seattle is about 40 miles southwest.
Homes dating to the early 20th century include bungalows and farmhouses. Spacious contemporary homes from the 2010s sit on large lots. Some of the newest homes combine modern features with vintage Craftsman styling. The majority are priced in the $900,000s to $1.2 million, though the range goes from the $500,000s to $1.8 million. Waterfront homes with private docks, multiacre estates and equestrian properties are among the options on the high end. Some homes are within homeowners associations. Three Lake's CAP Index crime score is 1 out of 10, compared to the national average of 4.
Flowing Lake County Park and Campground includes Leckie's Beach and an amphitheater. "Flowing Lake is popular. It's a pretty big lake and beautiful," says Robin Price, a broker with eXp Realty Seattle. Motorized boating and jet skiing are only allowed on Flowing Lake. Panther Lake and Storm Lake are smaller and on either side of Flowing Lake, which they connect to via Panther Creek. The three lakes have public boat launches and are popular for fishing.
In addition to water recreation and hiking, golf is another area pastime. The Snohomish Golf Course is a family owned, public course that opened in 1967. Dave's Dawghouse is at the course, serving breakfast and lunch.
Three Lakes is car-dependent, with rural-style roads and no sidewalks. To the south, there's access to U.S. Route 2, also known as Stevens Pass Highway. The highway extends from Everett on the west and links the region, passing mountainous areas often visited by vacationers and skiers. From Monroe, the trip east to ski resort Stevens Pass is about 50 miles.
Storm Lake Grocery is a small store on Storm Lake Road that sells a variety of items, including homemade bread, pizza, and sandwiches. People may travel to Snohomish, Monroe or Lake Stevens for other stores and restaurants.
Kids may attend public schools like Dutch Hill Elementary, which earns a B grade from Niche. Centennial Middle School receives a B-plus, and Snohomish High School has a B. Some students participate in the Snohomish Marine Corps Junior ROTC, which is affiliated with several area high schools.
