Golf in Cle Elum

Cle Elum is a Kittitas County community at the gateway to the Cascades on Interstate 90, a former coal mining town that has reinvented itself as a four-season outdoor recreation destination. The Suncadia Resort's development has transformed the Cle Elum area into a significant recreational destination for the Seattle metropolitan area, with ski access at Snoqualmie Pass, summer hiking, and year-round golf. The Cle Elum River valley and the Cascade Mountains' eastern slopes create the mountain community setting. The Pacific Northwest's outdoor recreation culture gives golf a natural place in community life alongside the hiking, kayaking, skiing, and water sports that define the Washington lifestyle, and the local course serves as a year-round anchor for the recreational community.
