REDMOND Who says you need a dog to enjoy the dog park?
There are 40 acres of off-leash area available for four-legged friends at Marymoor Park in Redmond, known to some as Doggy Disneyland. It’s a fitting nickname like furry cannonballs of joy zipping in every direction, tongues flapping and tails wagging, dogs bounce between their owners, their pup pals and the Sammamish Slough in search of far-flung tennis balls.

The windmill at Marymoor Park in Redmond is on property originally owned in the early 1900s by banker and developer James Clise. Cattle and horses were raised on the property, which was called Willowmoor Farm.
During a visit to the Netherlands, the Clise family fell in love with the windmills. Upon returning home, they had one built near the Sammamish Slough.
Although used mainly for aesthetics, the windmill was capable of grinding grain and pumping water.
Willowmoor was sold to King County in 1963 and became Marymoor Park. Video by David Carlos
