651 Lund LN, Cle Elum, WA, 98922

Nestled in the eastern foothills where the Central Cascades soften and the Yakima and Cle Elum rivers converge, you'll find an abundance of adventure, sun, fun, and relaxation—perfectly tailored to your desires. Welcome to the Lake Sena Campground.





  • Our campground greets you with open grass pastures, majestic mature trees, and picturesque campsites along a sparkling freshwater lake. Although just 77 miles from Seattle, it feels like a remote wilderness escape. As you drive down our gravel path into 70 lush acres, you'll discover a haven with minimal development, abundant wildlife, and a rejuvenating retreat immersed in nature.
  • Our offerings include RV and tent sites, group sites, and day passes for the lake and picnic area. With various beautiful, wooded spots and premier water-view sites along the lake, each campsite provides a unique experience. Sites typically accommodate one vehicle and a picnic table, with available hookups for water and power (30 or 50 AMP) or primitive options. We also have a dump station at the campground entrance. Most RV and tent sites are optimally situated to be free from visible structures, allowing you to enjoy silent nights, dark starry skies, dirt paths, wildlife, and natural beauty.
  • Our property offers an expansive and imaginative range of recreational activities. The lake, crafted decades ago by the Army Corps of Engineers, receives fresh, clean, and refreshing water from a local creek, flowing out underground to the next neighbor. Enjoy the sandy swimming area or bring your own non-motorized water toys. 
  • Safety is paramount; there is no lifeguard on duty at the lake, so please ensure everyone wears life preservers and stays mindful of water risks, especially children. Children under 12 must be supervised near the water.
  • With shade speckled trails through the woods, grassy areas for gatherings and games, and acres of pristine land to explore, we encourage you to stay for a night or more. We look forward to hosting your stay.

Join us for a serene and unforgettable getaway at the Lake Sena Campground!

Tent Sites

Our tents sites offer two ends of the spectrum, camp in the grass pasture among the pine trees and near the lake or delve deep into the wooded areas and find seclusion amongst the trees and vine maples. Located at the opposite end of the lake (to the West) of the pasture tent sites, you can also access the lake via a short walk. Up to your preference.

They both offer a rich experience, although slightly different. Watching the vast number of stars at night is easier from the pasture, but the solitude and immersion of the wooded sites bring their own fulfillment.

Campground Location Click to open the map

Welcome to the Lake Sena Campground. Our RV sites are concentrated in a central area near the Office and along the south side of the late. The area is filled with towering mature Pine, Fir, Larch and Maple trees and surrounded by grassy open areas for games and group gatherings. Most tent sites are situated in a gorgeous section of our grassy pasture among a grouping of Ponderosa Pine trees and steps away from a footbridge heading up a short incline to the lake. The evening skies are filled with stars and the placement of the tent sites provides your own little slice of beauty. They are away from the RV section, yet still near facilities.

As you arrive, feel free to stop by the office or proceed directly to your site. Our office hours at 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. If you need anything, contact us through the RoverPass registration tool located on our website.

We want your stay with us to be wonderful. Visit our online Guest Book to learn about local drink and food places as well as activities and places to visit. Please let us know if you need anything.
