Looking for a venue near Seattle that feels like a true getaway without leaving the city behind? Set along the shores of Lake Washington in Kirkland, The Woodmark Hotel & Still Spa pairs waterfront views with thoughtful service, creating a setting that works just as beautifully for weddings and corporate gatherings as it does for a relaxing overnight stay.

Just minutes from both Seattle and Bellevue, the hotel offers a rare combination of accessibility and atmosphere. It’s the kind of place where a morning meeting can be followed by an afternoon on the water, or where a wedding weekend unfolds against a backdrop of lake and sky.

Dream Weddings on Lake Washington

For couples searching for a Seattle-area wedding venue with water views,

The Woodmark offers a setting that feels both intimate and elevated.

Ceremonies on the terrace overlook the lake, while receptions are tailored to reflect each couple’s style, from smaller gatherings to larger celebrations.

The experience is designed to be seamless from start to finish. An experienced events team guides planning, and chef-driven menus highlight seasonal Pacific Northwest ingredients. The result is a celebration that feels personal, polished, and connected to its surroundings.

Corporate Retreats with a View

For companies looking to step outside the usual meeting room, The Woodmark offers a refreshing alternative. With more than 9,500 square feet of flexible meeting space, the property can accommodate everything from team offsites to multi-day leadership retreats.

Eight meeting rooms feature natural light and waterfront views, creating an environment that feels open and energizing. Seasonal menus and a dedicated event team help keep things running smoothly, whether the focus is strategy sessions, team building, or simply giving people space to think differently.

And when the workday winds down, the setting naturally encourages a shift in pace.

Experience the Lake, Your Way

One of the things that sets The Woodmark apart is how easy it is to connect with the lake itself.

Beyond the views, guests are invited to spend time on the water or along the shoreline in ways that feel both relaxed and memorable. Complimentary paddle boards offer a chance to get out on Lake Washington, while beach cruiser bikes make it easy to ride along the waterfront into downtown Kirkland. For something a bit more elevated, the hotel’s classic Chris Craft boat is available for private lake excursions, offering a different perspective of the shoreline.

It’s an experience that goes beyond simply staying near the water. Here, the lake becomes part of the stay.

Relax and Recharge at Still Spa

For those looking to slow down, Still Spa provides a quiet counterpoint to the energy of events and gatherings.

The on-site spa offers a range of treatments designed to restore and recharge, with seasonal packages that reflect the time of year.

Whether it’s a massage after a day of meetings or a moment of calm during a wedding weekend, the spa adds another layer to the overall experience.

A Stay That Feels Like an Escape

Each of The Woodmark’s guest rooms and suites is designed to feel like a retreat. Options range from well-appointed rooms with two queen beds to lakefront king rooms with private balconies. Interiors are calm and comfortable, with plush mattresses, high-end linens, and thoughtful details throughout.

Bathrooms feature rain showers and premium amenities, while in-room technology makes it easy to settle in. For a more elevated stay, suites offer additional space, with the Woodmark Suite providing a spacious layout ideal for a special occasion or extended visit.

Close to Everything, Away from It All

What makes The Woodmark especially appealing is its location. Just a short drive from downtown Seattle, it offers easy access to the city while feeling distinctly removed from it. Guests can move between meetings, celebrations, and downtime without ever feeling rushed.

With its lakeside setting, full-service amenities, and range of experiences both on and off the water, The Woodmark offers a versatile backdrop for weddings, corporate events, and weekend escapes alike.
