Bainbridge Island-“Seattle’s secret outdoor paradise.”
There are so many things to love about living on Bainbridge Island, but two that stand out for us at “Loving Island Life” are the abundant opportunities to be outdoors in a spectacular natural setting, and the casual and familiar feel of living in a small town. It appears that we aren’t the only ones who think this island is a pretty special place. Bainbridge Island was recently named in Men’s Journal as one of the 10 best places to live in 2016. They referred to us as “Seattle’s secret outdoor paradise.” Judging by the number of people who are looking to buy property on the island right now, we aren’t too sure about the “secret” part, but we heartily agree that we do, indeed, live in paradise.
You can read the article here to see more of what they loved about our island and to see which other places made the top 10 list.
