Holiday Inn Express & Suites Everett by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Thank you for our wonderful room we had a good rest and thank you so much for our coffee my grandaughter loved the juice and also your breakfast was excellent thank you so much"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Seattle North Lynnwood

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was very good. Even had an egg station where you could make a special order (omelet). I was disappointed it was only available from 7-9 (as I typically like an earlier breakfast), but it was fine. Complimentary drinks at check in was nice, too. I really liked the layout of the suite. Having a living room separated from the bedroom was really nice. The bed was very comfortable; firm but with enough give to feel supported but without feeling like I was sleeping on a board. It was also very quiet and I appreciated that the blackout curtains worked without having to secure them somehow to prevent light from coming in through a crack between the curtains. The room was visibly cleaned, but both the couch and carpet had visible staining (appeared to have been some sort of liquid). I was hesitant to walk without at least socks, but when I accidentally did it felt clean (not sticky like I’d expected). It appears the third floor is currently under renovation, so I have a feeling improvements are coming (I was on the second floor)."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in John Sam Lake?

The best area to stay in John Sam Lake is the North Shore, particularly around the John Sam Lake Lodge and Marina.

This area is the primary hub for visitors to John Sam Lake. It offers direct access to the lake, with many properties featuring private docks or close proximity to the public marina. The main road, Lakeview Drive, runs along the North Shore, connecting various accommodations, eateries, and local shops. You'll find a range of options from cosy cabins to more expansive holiday homes, all designed to make the most of the lake views.

Families will find the North Shore particularly appealing due to the abundance of water-based activities. The John Sam Lake Lodge often hosts family-friendly events, and the nearby marina provides opportunities for boat rentals, paddleboarding, and fishing trips. There are also several picnic areas and easy walking trails suitable for all ages.

For couples seeking a relaxing getaway, the North Shore offers a pleasant setting. Many properties boast private balconies or patios overlooking the lake, great for enjoying a quiet morning or an evening sunset.

When is the best time to go to John Sam Lake?

The best time to go to John Sam Lake is during the summer months, from June to September, when the weather is warm and dry, great for outdoor activities.

During this period, you'll experience average temperatures between 20°C and 28°C, with plenty of sunshine. This makes it ideal for enjoying the lake's water sports, hiking the surrounding trails, and exploring the nearby natural beauty. The longer daylight hours also allow for more time to enjoy the area.

Families often find July and August particularly good, as school holidays align perfectly with the peak season for swimming, boating, and picnicking by the lake. Many of the lakeside resorts offer organised activities during these months, suiting all ages.

For those who prefer slightly fewer crowds but still excellent weather, June and September are superb choices. The temperatures are still very pleasant, and you can enjoy the natural beauty with a bit more tranquility.
