ForestFire Paintball

The Biggest Public Paintball Field North of Seattle

ForestFire Paintball is located on Burn Road in Arlington, Washington, in Snohomish County north of Seattle. The field calls itself the biggest public field north of Seattle, with about 30 acres of woods and more than six separate fields. It has been in business for more than twenty years, and visitors describe a friendly crew that welcomes first-timers.

Six Main Fields Named After Famous Battles

The park has six main fields, including the Alamo, LZ, Omaha, and Camper Field, along with a Castle field for attack-and-defend games and Domination for control-the-compound games. Fields are combined or separated depending on turnout, and the staff keeps changing the maps so the layouts stay fresh. Reviewers describe a diverse course design with forests, trenches, forts, and other themed structures, including inoperable vehicles. A North Field and an annex add more room for large groups.

Open Paintball and Open Airsoft on Weekends

Open paintball runs on Saturdays from 11 am to 3 pm for rental players, and on the first Saturday of each month it welcomes players with their own equipment too. Open airsoft runs on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 am to 3 pm, and self-equipped airsoft players need no reservation. The public session rental includes entry, a semi-automatic marker, a standard mask, unlimited air, and 500 paintballs. Gear is held until noon on the day, and the minimum age is 10.

Referees Who Keep Games Safe and Fair

Referees oversee every game and keep the rules clear. Reviewers describe attentive staff who care about safety and fairness, and a visitor said the owner and his crew make the field the best in Washington. Players must sign a waiver, and the field stays open to players of different experience levels. A military discount and a wheelchair-accessible entrance and parking are available.

Private Parties for Birthdays, Bachelors, and Work Groups

Private parties are built for groups of ten, with options for one, two, or three hours of private play. A ref, gear, and a field come with every package, and groups choose between paintball, airsoft, and gellyball. A deposit of ten dollars per player holds a reservation, and the deposit applies toward the total. Birthday, bachelor, and corporate groups use the same packages, and the park gives a gift certificate option for players who want to give the gift of adrenaline.
