Bonney lake has a suburban feel, but still within close proximity to the city of Tacoma. It has grown over the past decade, with large communities of newly constructed homes. For skiers and snowboarders, Bonney Lake is only about an hours drive from Crystal Mountain Resort. In the summer, you get gorgeous views of Mt. Rainier and many residents spend their sunny days relaxing at nearby Lake Tapps. With good schools and parks, Bonney Lake is a great place to live!
