It is a new year and what better time than now to focus on your fitness goals? Staying active, fit, and flexible is more important than ever. Residents of Harbor Heights have ample opportunities to get fit using our many community amenities like our fitness room, strolling in our walkable downtown Olympia neighborhood, and through easy access to local outdoor recreation sites.

Walkable Neighborhood

Harbor Heights is located in the waterfront market district of downtown Olympia right across the street from the Percival Landing Boardwalk and just steps away from the Olympia Farmers Market. Harbor Heights boasts a 78 walk score, meaning most day-to-day errands can be accomplished on foot.  Walk to nearby restaurants, shops, museums, or grab a few items from the local grocery store while leaving your car parked in our secure parking garage. The market district is also considered to be a “biker’s paradise,” scoring 92 out of 100 for ease of biking. When not riding around downtown, store your bike in our garage bike racks or our bike storage room.

Community Fitness Room

When you don’t want to venture out, get your workout completed indoors in our Fitness Room featuring cardio equipment, free weights, a state-of-the-art mirror fitness system, and more.  Like our other community common spaces such as the Maritime Bar and Movie Theater, our Fitness Room has free high-speed internet and cable television so you can stay entertained while you work out. As the community continues to grow, we look forward to providing opportunities for residents to take part in group fitness activities both in the Fitness Room and on our Sky Terrace.

Ageless Adventures at Nearby Outdoor Recreation Sites

Harbor Heights is conveniently located near some of the Pacific Northwest’s finest outdoor recreation sites like the Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge, Crystal Mountain Resort, and Mount Rainier National Park. Opportunities to get fit via hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing, and more are just a short drive from the community. Residents can also take advantage of the community’s proximity to the waterfront by renting kayaks for springtime or summer paddling sessions.
