Crystal-Clear Water & Mountain Views

The Lookout Beach Cove

You don’t have to go far to enjoy the pristine waters Lake Chelan is known for. Just a short walk or shuttle ride from your home away from home, you get to enjoy it all. The lake is clear as glass, making it the perfect spot for swimming, paddle boarding, or boating. Many of our guests love soaking up the sun and enjoying the picturesque mountain views all around while spending time on the shore. Here, it’s not just a beach; it’s an entire lakeside retreat.

A Place for Families

If you’re a parent, you know just how challenging it can be to find a beach that’s safe, convenient, and a place where you can actually relax. Our waterfront and marina checks all those boxes! The beach cove is shallow, so kids can splash around while mom and dad relax nearby, even lay out under the shade of an umbrella. Plus, we even have private cabanas you can rent out. You don’t have to worry about giant crowds, so it’s easy to keep an eye on everyone and enjoy your day. Our beach is clean and well-kept, so you get a safe, easygoing spot for all ages.

Easy Access to Water Sports

Try jet skiing or simply cruise around and take in the incredible sights. We’ve got all the gear and help you need, regardless of if you have any experience. When you’re ready to switch from sunbathing to something more active, it’s just steps away.

Sunset Magic

There’s nothing quite like a sunset here. Enjoy a front-row seat to a show of color in the sky, with pinks, oranges, and purples reflecting off the clear lake like a mirror. Witness this natural show on the shore for memories that last long after the last ray of light has disappeared behind the mountains. Whether you’re sharing the moment with a special someone, or enjoying some peace and quiet to yourself, our beach is the place to be when the sun goes down.
