Lake Easton R.V. Resort is a membership resort associated with Resorts of Distinction, Coast to Coast, Resort Parks International, Campclub USA and Passport America. When you become a member of Lake Easton Resort you become family. Holiday weekends are member only weekends, which means when you make a reservation you will have a site to R.V. for that weekend. All sites are on a first come basis.

We stayed for 5 nights at the Lake Easton Resort in September of this year, 2008. Lake Easton is located on the eastern ridge of the Cascade Mountain Range off I90 in the state of Washington. Coming from the east you take exit 70. It's just east of Snoqualmie Pass and is on the south side right next to the freeway.

We had a very very nice relaxing time. I recommend this park highly. There's plenty of other RVers to chat with and exchange ideas and experiences. There was a lot of conversation among them all; moving from one rig to another helping and giving advice. It's truly a friendly place.

We found the owner and employees to be exceptionally friendly and the facility very clean and neat. The park is set in a nice wooded area; which feels more like camping, and it's just a short walk to the lake. Make sure you get the lock combination so you can get to the lake through the back gate. There are showers and a laundry room, too.

There are two restaurants across the highway that has very good food and yummy desserts. One is a burger spot that I've heard rave reviews about. Wish I could remember the names but they are the only two there other than what might be in Cle Elum so you can't miss them. The burger shop has great homemade shakes, too! We even walked to Lake Easton one morning for a newspaper. It couldn't have been even 1 mile one way.

There's plenty to do right in the park; however, after Labor Day, there's no planned activities. The clubhouse is very cozy with tables for working jigsaw puzzles, playing cards and games and for plugging in your laptop so you can connect to the Internet. There are cozy sofas and a TV. You can check out movies to view on your own DVD player and there's a nice library of books and magazines. In the summer time they have Saturday and Sunday breakfasts in the clubhouse. There's an indoor hot tub, horseshoes, hiking, biking, children indoor play area, and outdoor playground area.

Winter activities in the area include cross country skiing, and snowmobiling. Four area lakes have launching facilities for fishing and water-skiing. Make sure you ask about the local Fishing Ponds.

The old mining town of Cle Elum and Roslyn appeal to history buffs. The Yakima Valley wine country and picturesque Leavenworth is a short drive away. We did the railroad self-guided tour in Cle Elum, which was fun and very informative.

This park has a swimming pool, pool tables and an air hockey table. There's a nice kitchen eating area that holds big parties and where they have their breakfasts and dinners. Pets must be on a leash and must be cleaned up after so don't worry about bringing Fido along. There's a $5 dog deposit that is nonrefundable. Go-carts and mini bikes are not allowed. Make sure you make your reservation before going. They may be made up to 60 days in advance. They have resort cabins; which require a 2-week advance reservation but they highly recommend a 30-day advance reservation. There is a 2-night minimum on weekends for rentals and a deposit is required on cabin rentals. The cabins are A-frames and sleep 4-6. The cost is $5 - $60 and are not handicapped accessible. You need to bring your own linens.

Several found their satellite dish worked great despite the trees but you have to ask when making a reservation or at check-in which sites are the best for that. There are 50 full RV sites, 100 partial RV sites and 0 dry. The maximum length of your RV is 40 ft. The electricity hook-up is 30 amps and there is water at the sites. Some sites have sewage hook-up and there is a dump station in the park.

So if you're ready for staying in a wonderful mountain resort, this is the place for you. It's on I90 so you do hear the traffic a bit but it's not worth worrying about. It's truly a lovely resort. Why not ask about membership!
