Great Parks & Great People 5 rating By Real Estate Erin ( Mar 13, 2014) I have lived and worked in the High Point Neighborhood for the past 7 years. It is wonderful! Camp Long, one of my most favorite little parks (often overlooked by others) is a great place to bring friends, kids, and dogs. There are cabins you can rent in the summer time, a rock w ...Read More all to climb and nice curvy/hilly trails through the woods. Another great aspect of the High Point neighborhood is the community. We are a diverse group of people with a lot of neighborhood pride. If you are looking for a city home with a small town feel this is the spot. Our neighborhood block parties bring out everyone. We are a community where kids still trick or treat and if someone's dog goes missing everyone is on the look out.
Perhaps our only negative is walkability to all of West Seattle's great neighborhood restaurant's and bars. It's not so far but with our rainy days most of us drive to the Junction. Read Less
