Sunnyside Hill

Named for its southern exposure and micro-climate, Sunnyside features award-winning schools, the city's best sledding park, and faster snow melt in winter.

The Brightest Spot in Pullman

True to its name, Sunnyside Hill enjoys a southern exposure that creates a unique micro-climate in Pullman. Residents here often see their driveways melt off days before other parts of the city during winter, making it a favorite for gardeners and those who prefer a little extra light.

Neighborhood Highlights

  • Sunnyside Park: The crown jewel of the neighborhood. This massive park features duck ponds, tennis courts, and the legendary "Kite Hill"—the city's premier spot for winter sledding and summer picnics.
  • Schools First: Many homes here are within walking distance of Sunnyside Elementary, making morning drop-offs a breeze.
  • Housing Mix: You will find a blend of modest mid-century homes and newer developments with sweeping views of the Moscow Mountain range.

Local Insight: Sunnyside Hill is geographically central, offering a balanced commute to both Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories (SEL) and the WSU Campus.
