Great trail lots to see and do for pics. We left Wenatchee it was 87 at the trail it was in the mid70,s. Lot of breeze and shade. It’s a thick forest with the water close by Easy hike with an occasional tree across the trail from time to time. A water fountain and a faucet to fill water bottles located at the main bridge. It’s cold well water a bathroom is also there. There’s a gravel road the last few miles, lots of cars there so you don’t need a truck.

Had a wonderful time at Beaumont Cellars Winery on Friday, 7/2/21. We did a wine tasting and loved every wine we tried, especially the new Tempranillo. Luke, the owner’s friendly chocolate lab, hung out with us while we tasted and the owners prepped for a concert later that evening. The staff was lovely, the atmosphere was incredible, and we even got to hand-pick cherries right off the trees after the tasting! 10/10 would recommend and will be returning in the future for a concert and more wine! 🎶🍇

Beautiful waterfront park! There are small trails which any age group can access and enjoy the views. There is a playground for kids and beautiful trail for a walk alongside the river with beautiful views. Restrooms are available. Parking lot has decent amount of space.

Leavenworth is a charming Bavarian-style village in the Cascades, perfect for a fun getaway. Stroll through Front Street for pretzels, sausages, and cozy shops. Hike nearby trails like Icicle Ridge or Colchuck Lake(start as early as 5 am for less crowds ) , float the Wenatchee River, or sip local brews at Icicle Brewing. Families love the reindeer farm and nutcracker museum. Visit during Oktoberfest or the magical Christmas lights for extra charm!

One of the few places open late on a Sunday night. Helpful people at the counter to order beers, cider, and food. Only a few ciders available, but possibly the best one I had all week, crisp and flavorful. Tomato soup and turkey sandwich were very good. Pretzel was pretty good. Great atmosphere inside.

Phenomenal. The Sound of Music - 7/13/24 This is my 2nd summer living in Leavenworth and this time around we have a better work/life balance and were able to go to the Leavenworth Summer Theater for The Sound of Music. I'm 32 and I've actually never seen The Sound of Music and knew nothing about it. I booked this on a whim the morning of the show because the Facebook page for the theater posted that seats were still available. Parking is adequate. There is a ~10-15 seat shuttle bus to take you up from the bottom area to the actual theater if you need or want a ride. There were probably 8+ Portapotties right by the theater, which were very clean. They even had hand-wash stations with foot pumps, handsoap, and paper towels. They have seat cushions for rent for $1. Bring 1's and get one. Seriously. Get one. For everyone in your party. Do it. Bring water bottles and bug spray. Do not spray your bug spray at or near your seat go walk out by where you came in to spray yourself. Now to the performance: Incredible! I was blown away. My wife grew up going to plays with her mom in her home country and she absolutely loved this. This is truly a professional play. World class performance. If more of the country new about this you wouldn't be able to get a seat because people would fly in for it. Every single actor and actress was phenomenal. The children actors were so good we were blown away by their talent and courage to perform in front of such a big audience! Lead actress reminds me of the girl from fallout and is no doubt gonna be on the big screen. Awesome venue and beautiful experience. Truly not to be missed if you're here in the summertime

Nice place to visit with family We tried the pizza with hot honey and the special with beef jerky - both were delicious! 🍕🔥 The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming, definitely a cozy spot to enjoy good food together.

A great experience to learn about farm life and interact with a Reindeer herd. The tour started with chicken feeding, a video about Reindeer, and a safety briefing. The group was separated into the two area, Cupid Corner for young kids and people with special needs,and the main Reindeer enclosure. I selected a branch with leaves to feed a Reindeer and walked into the enclosure. The Reindeer are gentle with people and love to feed on tree branches. I stopped at the food stand, The Blitzen Brew, for an Alaskan Reindeer sausage wrapped in a Norwegian potatoes lefse. You will also find a gift shop in the barn with reindeer merchandise including an ornament made from antlers. Located on Chumstick Hwy in Leavenworth, about a half mile from Front Street. One of most unique experiences to feed Reindeer on a family run farm with a gift shop, a nice food stand, and very friendly hosts. .

Absolutely beautiful place to walk and enjoy the fall colors along the river.. Definitely recommend checking it out for yourself sometime..

Very beautiful place. Lots of hiking all flagstone steps. Small waterfalls to look at. Flowers galore. No wheel chairs. No dogs allowed. I had a great time I got lots of exercise.

Our guide, Megan, was truly a highlight of our personal tour here at the dam. I grew up here in Wenatchee in the late 70s/early 80s and remember visiting the museum as a youngster-- to have memories rekindled by seeing the volcanoes and glacier ice mural in its same location as my 9 year old brain remembered is truly extraordinary in this time period. The Discovery Center is a wealth of information, history, art, and a multimedia reflection of something truly extraordinary: a community-owned utility district and hydroelectrical system. Megan kindly and with incredible depth of knowledge took me, my partner, my dad and stepmom around the facility. She shared so much information that was new to me as an adult about how unique the facility is. With a progressive vision implemented in the 1950s with an eye for the long-term, Megan shared how the facility is continuing to evolve and how community-first this utility really is. To return to a place that is a mix of both old and new, the retro (but my living memory!!) and the evolving perspective/learning activities that is especially great for younger kids, is such a heart-expanding experience. Thank you, Megan and all staff we interacted with while visiting on site, June 26th 2025!! My inner 4th and 5th grader was thrilled to be able to try turning that human-powered generator in a box, now at age 55. It's still there, and what a treat to integrate so many positive memories in one place. This is a gem! It's not flashy and flashy wouldn't suit. You can see fish going through the ladders and the whole experience is gloriously analog and magical. Come visit. Not only that, it's a free resource held in trust by the Wenatchee Valley community. I'd give it 10 stars if I could. ❤️‍🔥💚🙏🐠

We showed up on a Saturday, on a whim, just driving through. It was AMAZING!!!!! The curator was great, full of so much information. The rocks were my favorite, but they had so much more, make sure to go downstairs, and open the old post office box for a cool prize!!! I'm so glad we stopped. Thank you so much!!!!

Beautiful! I wanted to think it was overrated but I see why people would drive 3 hours to this lake as opposed to other nearby ones. It's large! Plenty of space for everyone, whether on the water or around the lake, so you can enjoy the serene landscape without having to hear other people's conversations and music. Plenty of parking too. There is a sandy beach but you could also walk to the quieter sides where there are spots under the trees for foldable chairs and canopies. You may have to pay at the booth coming in: $10 for day use or $30 for annual pass (Discover Pass). There is a teeny gift section in the booth, some magnets, thermal flasks, and t-shirts.

We had a blast and will definitely be back. The price was affordable, the staff was polite, and the overall vibe was laid back. It wasn’t too busy and had enough activities to keep us busy for hours.

Nice getaway! Had a relaxing trip to Stehekin and enjoyed the views from the ferry. It was long, but a beautiful ride. The guides were super friendly and funny!

Me: I am easy to please, you can't deny that. Him:... We just ate at a winery on top of a mountain overlooking a lake! Me: oh. 🤣 And to think I all started with me searching for pizza, seeing one photo from this establishment, and deciding to try it. The winery is just 15 minutes from Lake Chelan and it's a scenic drive and location, as well. What I love most about going here was that I was able to do a wine tasting while waiting for the pizzas to be done. Admiring the vineyard, the mountains and lake Chelan was very enjoyable too! A flight tasting is $15, and bottle is anywhere from $25-$35. We were told that if we purchased a bottle, they would waive the cost of the flight. It was a good experience, and what I liked most was that the server was relaxed, casual and friendly and made recommendations based on not only his favorites, but the staff's overall picks to help us narrow down our choices. It gave us an opportunity to step out of our comfort zone more confidently. I HIGHLY recommend the Cabernet Franc and Merlot !

I think this is my favorite winery in this area. It is small, but it has a cozy and very nice "home" feeling. The bartender/server will come to greet you and talk about the wines and stories of the place. The wine we had in the tasting room was very tasty, not spicy or smoky but very smooth. We loved it a lot and ended up buying a couple of bottles. It is also pet friendly. My pups got a lot of pets and love from the guests there. Will definitely visit again when we visit Lake Chelan area next time.

This campground is one of the best in the state in terms of cleanliness, staffing and facilities. Excellent scenery and back drop. Perfect for tent campers or rvers of all types. Great job. I’m not sure why some state campgrounds are more like homeless camps and others are excellent, safe campgrounds for the public. It would appear campgrounds on the west side of the state need new management. Keep up the good work Alta Lake management!!

I used to do color guard for The 49er's Day Parade and had the chance to meet and hang with the greatest folks on planet earth. One of the most beautiful places in America.

Always worth the drive to play here. The course is in great shape and very playable for all skill levels. Views are amazing. The lodging is nice. Giant putting green is fun at night with glow in the dark balls. I would bring your own versus buying at the course. Will be much cheaper. Worth making restorations at Danny Boy ahead of time just in case, as it can get busy.

What an interesting place! Very informative tour led by extremely personable members of the Smokejumpers! Eric, who is a pilot, gave us a tour of the plane and explained the procedures and equipment extremely well. Chase, one of the Smokejumpers took over the tour in the “loft”. He showed us their jump equipment and explained the jump process. There were photos to aid in understanding the perils of being a Smokejumper! Both guides were very friendly and knowledgeable! We appreciated their time and consideration. Well worth stopping to learn more about this unique and valued commodity. These people are making a difference!!

Very nice memorial. Staff was helpful; let us know about some road closures due to fire and helped us plan a different route. The displays throughout the building, while not museum quality, are nice and meaningful. Most were done & donated by locals & school kids. Reading the names outside will make you think about the price paid by others.

Wonderful attraction. Great for any age. There's so much detail you could go three times and not see everything. The interactive sensors and scenes really help keep the little ones engaged. The whole setup can go into night mode and a thunderstorm too! There's funny little scenes hidden through out. Raunchy, accidents robberies, quaint little towns and rolling landscapes.

Bring your family, bring your friends! Osoyoos lake in the summers are super warm and beautiful 😍 ... oh, and also bring sunscreen, water and a hat? We come to Osoyoos for 2 weeks every year and just love it !! The lake can be busy with boats, seadoo's, paddleboards etc, but there is lots of room for all to play! There is usually a wibit, my kids love that!

We had a lovely stay. We would have loved to stay 2 nights but time did not allow. I was pleasantly surprised that breakfast was included. Breakfast was great and the homemade bread wonderful. The cinnamon buns were difficult to resist. The staff were wonderful as well. We would go back in a heartbeat. Cawston is a beautiful area.

Such a fun place in Osoyoos! Great rides for all ages, friendly staff, and a really cheerful vibe. Perfect for a family day out or just to feel like a kid again. Definitely worth a visit if you're in town!

We had an excellent wine tasting experience at Nk'Mip Cellars! The wines were outstanding—beautifully crafted with great variety and depth. The staff were welcoming and knowledgeable, making the whole visit even more enjoyable. A must-visit for any wine lover!

Visiting the Desert Centre in Osoyoos was an incredible experience that I highly recommend to anyone exploring the area. It’s the perfect place to immerse yourself in the beauty and uniqueness of the desert environment while learning so much along the way. Walking along the boardwalk, we got an up-close look at fascinating desert wildlife, from rare plants to birds and small animals, all thriving in this unique ecosystem. It’s amazing to see how life adapts to the harsh desert conditions. The guided tour was very informative and engaging, offering deep insights into the region’s history, environment, and the traditional ways of life of the Indigenous peoples who have lived here for generations. What really stood out to me was how family-friendly the Desert Centre is. Kids will absolutely love it — between the interactive exhibits, the chance to spot wildlife, and the opportunity to learn about desert survival and culture, there’s so much to keep young visitors interested and excited. The staff and volunteers were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, answering questions and sharing stories that made the whole experience even more memorable. If you're looking for an unforgettable desert adventure that's both educational and fun, especially for families, Desert Centre Osoyoos is the perfect place. It’s a must-visit destination that offers a rare glimpse into a beautiful and often overlooked part of Canada’s natural heritage.

1000/10. Best winery I have genuinely EVER been to. Every time they said a different note or smell or taste in the wine, you could taste it very prominently. The owner was absolutely fantastic and gave so many details about the grapes and different wines. You could really tell they cared about the product they were selling and the experience you had. The property was fantastic, I felt like I was in a European Villa. Atmosphere, customer service, wine all 1000/10. The only way to get this wine is to get it shipped from them or to go to the winery directly. I highly recommend stocking up. Do yourself a favor and come here!
