With its crystal clear waters, stunning landscapes, and endless recreational activities, Lake Chelan is the perfect destination for your next vacation. Whether you’re planning a family trip, a romantic getaway, or a solo adventure, this guide will help you make the most of your time in Lake Chelan. A beautiful and serene destination located in the heart of Washington State awaits you.
Choose the Right Time of Year
The first step in planning your Lake Chelan vacation is to choose the right time of year to visit. The peak tourist season is during the summer months, from late June to early September, when the weather is warm and sunny and a dip in the lake is a must-do. However, if you prefer a quieter and more relaxed vacation, consider visiting during the shoulder season, from May to June or September to October, when the pace slows down.
Book Your Accommodations
Next, you’ll need to book your accommodations. Windermere Vacation Rentals offers a wide range of lodging options, from cozy cabins and condos to luxurious lakefront properties. Be sure to book well in advance, especially during the peak season, to secure the best deals and availability. We are confident we have a place to stay that will meet your needs and wants!
Plan Your Activities
Once you’ve booked your accommodations, it’s time to plan your activities. Lake Chelan offers an endless array of outdoor recreational opportunities, from hiking and biking to swimming and boating. Whether you take the Lady of the Lake ferry 50.5 miles to the top of the lake to visit the quaint village of Stehekin, or spend the afternoon sampling wine from one of our 30+ local wineries, there is plenty to keep you busy and entertained.
