Neighborhood Spotlight: Cornwall Park

This week’s Neighborhood Spotlight is focused on the Cornwall Park. One of the smaller neighborhoods in the area, Cornwall Park is filled with recreational areas and houses with large yards. The neighborhood is mostly residential homes, making the area a very peaceful, family-oriented place to live. The neighborhood surrounds the historic Cornwall Park (hence the name), which provides many different outdoor activities. The cost of living in the neighborhood is slightly higher than the Bellingham average, but the number of amenities and beauty of the area more than make up for the slightly higher price.

Cornwall Park: Live and Play

When it comes to activities, the main draw of the neighborhood is its namesake, Cornwall Park. The park has so many different activities available, so there is bound to be something for everyone. In addition to the standard playgrounds, trails, and barbecue area, the park has a frisbee golf course, basketball and tennis courts, and a rose garden. One very unique feature of the park is the Spray Park. It is a small area with water-shooting fountains and poles for kids and families to have some aquatic fun. It is open June 15 – September 15, so the watery fun is just about to begin! In addition to all the outdoor activities, there is plenty of indoor fun to be had as well. There are coffee shops all over the place to relax with hot drink, as well as Sunset Square shopping center less than two miles away so you can spend the day on a shopping spree.
