Beautiful property, with a sweet and (cold) pond to float. My kids will swim for short periods of time, due to the cold water, but they enjoyed themselves.. Some sites are very close/too close to one another, while others are more dispersed. Bathrooms are clean. The camp hosts are very friendly and welcoming. Walking distance into Cle Elum is a plus! This is my second time there and will definitely be returning.

Nice clean park with things for kids to do. We enjoyed it. There is some freeway noise but it’s muffled and I didn’t really notice it much.

This was a great camping spot for our family plenty of activities to do right here on the property so the kids didn’t get board. Within a reasonable driving distance to see other places if you’re an explorer like our family. Level sites for easy set up to start your adventure. Plenty of trash cans around the property as well.

Camping at Whispering Pines was great for an overnight stop on our journey. There was a burn ban during our visit, which was a bummer.
