Lake Chelan Parks

Lake Chelan and the surrounding area has a wide variety of parks spread across Chelan, Chelan Falls, and Manson, ranging from large waterfront destinations to small neighborhood pocket parks. Don Morse Memorial Park sits right on the shores of Lake Chelan in downtown Chelan with over 2,000 feet of waterfront, while Lake Chelan State Park and Twenty-Five Mile Creek State Park offer more developed camping and recreation along the south shore. Chelan Falls Park and Beebe Bridge Park provide Columbia River access just outside of town, and several smaller parks throughout Chelan and Manson round out the options for picnicking, recreation, and scenic views.
