Lake Tapps is small town living within minutes of big city life.
When I was a girl growing up in Seattle, Lake Tapps was a vacation destination with cabins on 2+ acre lots. Now Lake Tapps is a suburb of the Greater Seattle/Tacoma area with homes on 1/2 acre or smaller lots surrounding the lake and beyond. Most of the trees around the Lake are gone, but non homeowners can access the Lake through the Pierce county park for a small fee. http://www.piercecountywa.org/pc/services/recreate/LakeTapps.htm A map of Lake Tapps: http://www.mapquest.com/maps?city=Lake+Tapps&state=WA&country=US&latitude=47.184399&longitude=-122.170403&geocode=CITY The lake itself is a reservoir which provides water for 300,000-400,000 customers. It is owned by Cascade Water Alliance which has an agreement with homeowners to keep the water high enough for recreational activities. This is a great lake to go water skiing with a view of snow covered Mt. Rainier in the horizon. For information on Real Estate on or around the Lake: http://MariaSmith.myWindermere.com
Lake Tapps addresses will sometimes include either Bonney Lake, Sumner or even Auburn.
Along with Bonney Lake, Lake Tapps is part of the Sumner school district. http://www.sumner.wednet.edu/ Lake Tapps is beautiful, worth visiting, and a lovely place to call home. Small town living within minutes of big city life.
