Officially incorporated as a city in 1903, Stanwood is a charming small town with a rich history in the farming industry. Stanwood maintains its old-fashioned, idyllic feel with stretches of scenic farmland to this day. Stanwood is also home to a close-knit community, coming together for an array of family-friendly events such as Light Up Your Holidays, the Great Northwest Glass Quest, Snow Goose and Birding Festival, and much more.
The Stanwood community enjoys a broad selection of rentals, from apartments to houses and everything in between. Stanwood offers great opportunities for outdoor recreation at Church Creek Park, Heritage Park, and nearby Kayak Point County Park. Although residents love Stanwood’s small-town atmosphere, the city is also just an hour’s drive away from both Bellingham and Seattle.
