A quiet community in a Stillaguamish River Valley setting
Sunday Lake is a small community in the Stillaguamish River Valley in northern Snohomish County. There's suburban-style flavor in the home types, quiet streets and some gated communities. A rural feel comes with large lots, rustic backroads and forested surroundings. Views of the Olympic and Cascade mountains add to the ambiance. "Sunday Lake is in the sweet spot. It's not in the city of Stanwood, but it's close. It's just location, location, location," says Sid Roberts, the Mayor of Stanwood, a small city about 7 miles west of the lake. Arlington, which has more than double the population, is about 9 miles to the southeast, and Seattle is about 50 miles south.
Sunday Lake sits just a few miles east of Stanwood and 45 miles north of Seattle.
The types of homes found in Sunday Lake range from smaller ramblers to larger estates.

Interstate 5 access and buses from the Stanwood Park & Ride
Access to Interstate 5 is a significant perk for people living in Sunday Lake: "You get off I-5, and Sunday Lake is right there," says Mayor Roberts, who has also worked in real estate through his business, the Roberts Realty Group LLC. He says some homebuyers initially want to move to Camano Island, which is west of Stanwood, but may choose Sunday Lake when they realize how convenient it is. Stanwood I-5 Park & Ride is a spot to catch a Community Transit bus, which travels to the Seaway Transit Center in Everett, past Arlington, via Smokey Point and Marysville. Another route extends farther south to Lynnwood, where commuters can catch the light rail to Seattle. "You can take an express bus from right there at the Park & Ride to light rail, and on to Sea-Tac airport and on from there to Singapore," Mayor Roberts says, referencing Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, which has service to more than two dozen destinations outside of the U.S.
