Nature
Wenberg County Park is a 46-acre public park on Lake Goodwin in Washington, offering a swimming beach, boat launch, cabins, picnic shelters, and campgrounds. It grew from a community effort to preserve waterfront land for public use after fears the site might become a golf course. Named for East Stanwood postmaster Marie Louise Wenberg, who led fundraising to buy the first 20 acres, the park was dedicated under county ownership in 1939. It became a state park in 1947, then returned to Snohomish County in 2009 during a budget crisis to remain open. In 2018, renovations improved access to the beach and boat launch.
