A dacha is a traditional Russian dwelling where people go to rest, grow gardens, play balalaikas and drink vodka with their pet bears. No garden surrounds this one, bears are not domesticated, and you may need to bring your own beverage of choice. Although, you still will have tons of fun exploring the great locations in the area. Leavenworth's scenic valleys and mountains offer every kind of recreation – from hiking to mountain biking, river tubing, rafting, snowmobiling, windsurfing/kiting, alpine and cross country skiing, snowshoeing, fishing, rock climbing, paddle boarding, horseback riding and many, many more. Or choose to explore the more sophisticated side of this amazing place, with wine tasting, restaurants, shops and breathtakingly beautiful drives. As crazy as it sounds, we’ve done it all and will be happy to share best kept local secrets with our guests.
