We like to call Ellensburg a hidden treasure for its tranquility and small town charm, but really, many have discovered this gem in Central Washington.

Sticking to its western roots and historical structures has made Ellensburg a place like no other, where awe and wonder hang around every corner. From a refreshing dip in Carey Lake to a stroll through historical downtown, visitors will find an activity that suits them.
