Mallard Cove

Mallard Cove is a narrow, quiet inlet of water tucked against the western edge of Lake Washington. While much of the shoreline features massive estates and private docks, this strip remains a rare public access point where the cattails grow thick and the water stays still. Local kayakers favor the spot as a calm launch point, away from the heavy motorboat traffic of the main lake. It serves as a persistent reminder of the marshy, untouched landscape that defined this entire waterfront before development.
