Slides, wines, and ski slopes in Chelan

Chelan is a real chameleon of a getaway. In the summertime, folk flock to splash in the cool mountain waters of Lake Chelan State Park, or to whizz down the whirling water rides of Slidewaters _ the largest waterpark in North Central Washington. Fall is high time for tasting trips through the local wineries, with popping corks heard from the Tsillan Cellars to the Fielding Hills. And when the snows come, it's all about waxing down the skis, hitting the pistes, and leaving behind your cozy Chelan vacation rentals for the alpine slopes of Echo Ridge.

Chelan promises plenty for the budding outdoors adventurer. Book a Chelan vacation rental in the woods that line the Wenatchee National Forest if you came here for hiking or overnight camping excursions into bear country.

Or, consider coming between May and August for the drier days and the sun. That's high time for hiking in the Wenatchee National Forest, for wild swimming, or hitting the attractions of Slidewaters.
