Cabins near Ellensburg

·

Ellensburg’s cabin camping scene puts you right at the edge of Central Washington’s high desert—think big skies, crisp mornings, and rolling hills that catch the last light. With over 120 cabin options, you can settle in after a day spent fishing the Yakima River, riding horseback across sagebrush, or chasing snow up in the hills. Prices start at $50 a night, though most spots hover around $190. Travelling with a dog? Many cabins welcome pets. Want to soak off the dust? Look for places with a hot tub. Campfires are allowed in several spots, so you can end your day with s’mores and a view of the stars. Check out Willow Barn Ranch (309 reviews), Mountain View Glamping Cabin (18 reviews), or The Original 100 Acre Farm (11 reviews) for tried-and-true stays. Bring layers—the weather turns fast out here—and don’t forget your fishing rod or snow boots, depending on the season.

38mi from Ellensburg · 19 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Wapato, WA
This small 25-acre ranch is just in the early stages of development. We are repairing fences and watering. I just added solar power and several electrical upgrades for RV's. The property has a 2000 feet of grass runway with an airplane hangar, so you could fly it if you have a STOHL airplane. The irrigation pond/pond yard area is currently available for camping. Many wineries, brewies and outdoor activities available in the area. Children can help feed or water the pigs and perhaps the chickens. Be aware though when piglets are around at times they are very small and are amazing escaped artists so do not keep food out unless you want to try and pet one they are friendly. We are more than happy to help suggest wineries and brewies in the area or enjoy the bar area we have! We offer several campsites as well as an in-ground greenhouse as listings. Guests love staying with us: "The pond at Willow Barn Ranch was picturesque. Show us around the property. It's very quiet and peaceful, and you can tell you take good care of your land. Wide open spaces." Please be aware that we do not allow parking on grass without explicit permission which is always handled on site. Vehicles will most likely not be permitted on the grass itself with rare exceptions.
