Suncadia’s Tumble Creek is sold

Escalante Golf – a boutique owner and operator of luxury golf properties nationwide – has acquired its 27th property, Tumble Creek, in Cle Elum, Washington.

Adjacent to the renowned Suncadia resort, Tumble Creek is a private, gated residential golf community situated approximately 80 miles from Seattle via Interstate 90. Given its location on the eastern side of the Cascade Mountains, the Cle Elum region is sunnier and drier than the Seattle metro area, making it a sought-after recreational retreat. Outdoor activities like golf, skiing, fishing, kayaking, hiking and wine tasting are noteworthy attractions.

As part of the acquisition, Escalante Golf assumes ownership of the club, golf course and remaining real estate within the community; this includes approximately 330 homesites still available for development. Current Tumble Creek members will continue to enjoy access to the club and Suncadia’s resort amenities, including its two 18-hole championship courses.

Designed by acclaimed architect Tom Doak, the Tumble Creek golf course opened in 2006 and features many of the characteristics that have made Doak one of the most respected designers in the game. Its player-friendly experience appeals to a wide range of golfers, with well-placed bunkers and penalty areas presenting a greater challenge for more skilled players from the championship tees. Golf Digest ranked Tumble Creek No. 5 in its 2025-26 list of the Best Courses in Washington, while Golfweek named it the state’s No. 3 private golf course. Oriented amenities – including bowling lanes, a golf simulator, casual recreation areas and spaces for year-round programming – reinforce its role as a central hub for members and residents.
