Wapato Lake Campground

We loved staying here. It's small and your packed in so you're going meet your neighbors. Loved having ice on site. We had triple digit heat so it was perfect to be by the nice lake. Super quiet at night. Jesse the camp host was awesome. Our site 17 was tight to get into with our 22' trailer due to the stumps on either side of the entrance but once we got setup we liked it. 30 minutes from Echo Ridge where we were mountain biking every day. We stayed here and Beebe Bridge during our week at the Lake and preferred Wapato for the fun factor, access to the lake and no highway noise.

Small, Manson Park District run campground. Clean. $25-$35 a night+$5 admin fee.

Sites are close together, but it’s right on Wapato Lake. Cheapest place to camp in Lake Chelan area I could find. Host was friendly, but did enforce the rules: 1 tent or RV, 4 people, 1 vehicle per site; dogs on leash at all times.

No RV dump, but they sell wood and ice. I would definitely stay here again, especially during the week or before July or after Labor Day. Clean bathrooms (cleaned every day!)
