5 Washington Retreats: Lake Chelan Condos, Whidbey Waterfront, and Quincy Acres

Along the shores of Lake Chelan at Wapato Point Resort, Yacinde Court #G2 reframes vacation-home living with a calm, contemporary sensibility. This fully renovated Yacinde full-share condo is set farther back from the waterfront activity, offering elevated privacy and enhanced seclusion while remaining part of the resort’s serene lake setting. Inside, the rebuilt Yacinde condominiums’ modern elegance carries through in refined finishes and an easy, low-effort rhythm that suits weekends away as naturally as longer stays. Days can begin with the quiet of a more tucked-away position and end with the atmosphere of Lake Chelan close by—an address that balances retreat and resort energy in a way that feels considered, not contrived.

Along the water’s edge at Yacinde at Wapato Point, modern elegance meets the calm of Lake Chelan in this ground-floor waterfront condo.

Set in Manson, this is a home designed to let the lake define the rhythm of each day.
