Crossroads Park

A Multicultural Hub

Located in one of Bellevue's most diverse neighborhoods, Crossroads Park spans 34 acres of community-focused green space. Walking through this park is like taking a mini world tour - you'll often hear multiple languages being spoken as families and friends gather to enjoy this popular outdoor space.

Splash into Fun

The crown jewel of Crossroads Park is its water spray playground that runs from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day. Kids absolutely adore the whimsical water features: spitting frogs, spouting orcas, and squirting clams that send refreshing streams of water through the air on hot summer days.

The star attraction? A life-sized orca sculpture that remains a climbing favorite even when the water isn't flowing. The designers thoughtfully created separate zones for different ages - a gentler area for babies through 5-year-olds and a more adventurous section for the older kids.

Get Your Game On

For those wanting to stay active, Crossroads offers full-size basketball courts, tennis courts, and a skate bowl where local riders practice their skills. There's also a charming 9-hole par-3 golf course that welcomes both traditional golfers and those who prefer the newer foot golf trend.

The expansive grassy areas offer plenty of room to toss a frisbee, set up a picnic, or simply lie back and cloud-watch. Paved trails wind within the park, well-suited for your morning jog or an evening bike ride.

Kid-Friendly Spaces

Two distinct play areas keep the little ones entertained, including a themed playground with equipment that accommodates kids of all abilities. You'll find simple structures where toddlers can safely explore alongside more challenging equipment that keeps older children engaged. Both areas feature padded surfaces - a relief for parents watching active climbers!

Need to host a gathering? The park offers one large shelter that holds up to 150 people, plus two smaller shelters near the water play area. These covered spots come equipped with picnic tables, and some even offer electrical outlets - making them ideal for birthday celebrations or family reunions.

Community Connections

Crossroads Park goes beyond typical park offerings with its full-service community center, the Bellevue Youth Theatre, and seasonal community gardens where locals grow their own produce. Dog owners appreciate the recently added fully fenced off-leash dog park area with shade trees (just remember to bring water for your four-legged friend).

Year-Round Happenings

The park hosts community events throughout the year, including the Bellevue Strawberry Festival in late June, summer movie nights under the stars, and various cultural celebrations that reflect the neighborhood's diversity. A practical bonus: the park sits right next to Crossroads Shopping Mall with its food court, making it easy to grab a meal before or after your park adventures.

The park welcomes visitors 24 hours daily and maintains clean, accessible restrooms on-site. Just a heads-up - during sunny summer weekends, the parking lots can fill up quickly despite having multiple options available.
