Nelson Farm Pool (Seasonal, Club Member-Only Amenity) — Local services in Cle Elum

Do not sign up for axe throwing if you have a larger group! Completely unfair pricing for groups with more people. Axe throwing was $30 per person for 45 minutes. For that price, you'd think each person would have their own axe and target, get more than 45 minutes, or some included beers/drinks. We showed up with a group of 6 people (and paid $180 + tax) for 45 minutes of throwing two axes in a single stall (2 targets). After taking turns between all 6 of us over the course of the 45 minutes, we were promptly told to turn in the axes.

Meanwhile, the stall next to us has only two people and paid $60 for the same two axes and stall just for the two of them all 45 minutes long. Not sure we received anything for the additional $120 + tax. It was fun, but totally not worth the price paid for a...

It was disappointing from what we had heard. When we booked at Suncadia we thought we'd have access to the pool at Nelsons Farm but found out when we arrived that you have to be a member. The only restaurant at the farm is member only too. The playground is nice and the kids liked it. You could buy a $10 pass for a bouncy house but it was only one and had a lot of water inside so the kids didn't want to go in and get soaked. They have free plastic axe throwing, archery with foam arrows, and corn hole for free. You can pay extra for real archery and axe throwing and BB guns. The only restrooms are porta potties. The lodge shuttle dropped us off and then picked us up an hour late so we felt trapped there and wished we hadn't gone or at least driven so we could leave...

We visited in mid-February and there was about 12" of snow on the ground - beautiful. There were some cross-country skiers and snow-shoers. We had made reservations for axe throwing with friends. It was SO FUN, even though I have little eye-hand coordination. Masks are required except while eating/drinking. They do serve drinks (alcoholic and non)! The open air and very few people made it feel safe/clean. The two guys who were working there went above and beyond. Excellent staff. Even though the novelty of the activity wore off after about 20 minutes, I recommend it for the experience! Can't wait to visit the property in the summer to check out this pool and any summer activities...
