Snoqualmie Falls is absolutely beautiful and a must-see if you’re visiting the area. The waterfall is powerful and stunning, especially after rain. The viewpoints are easy to access, and the short walking trails make it perfect for all ages. There’s plenty of parking, clean restrooms, and a small gift shop. It’s an easy stop from Seattle and doesn’t require a long hike to enjoy amazing views. Definitely worth the visit — pictures don’t do it justice!

It was so beautiful! I brought my family that was visiting and they loved it! The only thing that sucks is the paid parking! I had to pay almost $10 just to be there for maybe 15-20 minutes.

It's a beautiful place and a must visit spot if you are in Seattle. The best time to come here is 10am, when it's not crowded. It was 0°C even on a sunny day of January. The trail down to the falls is not too easy but not too hard as well. The climb back up was tough for those who don't exercise regularly.

Beautiful picturesque falls, just a couple miles from the Snoqualmie Casino and close to historic Snoqualmie town. We were there in the winter, after some significant rain so the falls were in good form. If you go when the weather is better, there are picnic tables so you can sit and eat while enjoying the beauty of the area. Parking is paid, and can be a challenge.

During the recent heavy rains, the falls received a huge volume of water, creating a lot of mist and a dramatic view. We visited this place a couple of times, and every time we went to see the bottom of the falls clearly. There are both upper and lower viewing decks, and a scenic trail leads down to the lower deck. Which you can reach by walking about 0.8 miles down the trail. During the rainy season, the water flows heavily, making the view even more impressive. Two power plants are located nearby, and from the lower deck, we can see the massive pipelines, which add to the uniqueness of the place. It is a beautiful and scenic spot. You don’t even realize how time passes while watching the view and listening to the sound.
