The Taylor River is a river in King County in Washington.

Course The river starts at the outlet of Bear Lake.

The river drops over a small waterfall before entering Deer Lake. After exiting Deer Lake, the river drops over another waterfall, this one much larger than the first, before entering the largest and best of the three lakes on the Taylor River, Snoqualmie Lake.

After exiting Snoqualmie Lake, the river drops over another good sized waterfall as it drops over the headwall below the lake. Near the bottom, the river receives the creek that drains Nordrum, Judy and Carole Lakes.

The river then turns from west to northwest before soon turning west again. The river receives three large tributaries, Big Creek, Otter Creek and Marten Creek, all of which drop over large waterfalls before entering the river.

After receiving Marten Creek, the river turns south towards its confluence with the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River.

Shortly before entering the river, it receives one more major tributary, Quartz Creek.
