Sun Lakes-Dry Falls State Park

34875 Park Lake Road N.E.
Coulee City, WA 99115

As you enter Sun Lakes-Dry Falls, you may feel like you're on another planet. The park is surrounded by one of Washington's most striking and historically significant landscapes.Dry Falls is a geological wonder of North America. Carved by Ice Age floods more than 13,000 years ago, the former waterfall was once four times the size of Niagara Falls. Today, the 400-foot-high, 3.5-mile-wide cliff overlooks a big sky and a landscape of deep gorges and dark, reflective lakes. The park is a notable site along the National Ice Age Floods Geologic Trail.Visitors – especially history and geology geeks – will appreciate the Dry Falls Visitor Center, where interpretive displays tell the story of the floods and their effects on Washington's landscape. Call (509) 632-5214 for seasonal hours and to arrange a tour.The park also offers great recreation. Nothing beats the boat launch and social atmosphere of Park Lake, and shimmering Deep Lake presents a remote paddling and kayaking experience. The lure of Dry Falls Lake entices anglers to cast out for trout. Hiking trails wind through the scented, sage-dotted hills to table-top cliffs with panoramic views. The park even offers nine-hole and miniature golf for visitors who equate a desert vacation with a good game on the green.PARK FEATURESSun Lakes-Dry Falls State Park is a 3,774-acre camping park with 73,640 feet of freshwater shoreline at the foot of Dry Falls between Soap Lake and Coulee City.ADA AMENITIES/FACILITIESCampgroundRestroomPICNIC & DAY-USE FACILITIES There are 90 unsheltered picnic tables, available first come, first served.ACTIVITIESTRAILS15 miles of hiking trailsWATER ACTIVITIES & FEATURES680 feet of dockBoatingFishing (freshwater)Fish cleaning stationPersonal watercraft usePlaygroundSwimmingWatercraft launches (2)WaterskiingOTHER ACTIVITIES & FEATURESAmphitheaterBird watchingCommissaryFire circleGolfHorseshoe pits (2)Interpretive activitiesMountain bikingMuseumWildlife viewingBOATING FEATURESThe park provides two watercraft launches, 42 reservable moorage slips and 680 feet of dock.
