Reviewed By Mur64 - Portland, United States
I walked around Lake Padden (2.8 miles) and had a lake view for half of walk and forest view for other part. THe day was windy which gave me nice wind in my hair on the lakeside and then calm on the forest side. The walking path is well done and I saw a few people. I walked it during the day during the middle of the week. I would walk this again on a future visit to Bellingham!

Have been to Mt Baker Theatre many times but never have taken time to review it before. It's a beautiful old theatre, with lovely carvings. Don't forget to look at the ceiling! Seats are fairly comfortable and I've never not had a good view. Small concessions in lobby. Restrooms are clean and large enough. Always kind and helpful people working.
