Snow days in Lake Cascade
In summer, Lake Cascade steals the spotlight. From fishing and boating to kayaking and windsurfing, it's easy to make a splash. The lake is also surrounded by national forests and state parks, which lure a constant stream of hikers, mountain bikers and trail riders. Things don't slow down in the winter, when Cascade transforms into a snowy wonderland. There are still plenty of opportunities to enjoy the mountain air, from ice fishing to cross-country skiing. After a long day exploring the trails, there's nothing better than wine, cheese and board games by the fireplace of your Cascade vacation rentals cabin.
A 4-season playground
From sun-drenched days on the lake to cross-country skiing in the forest, Cascade is a true year-round destination. Summers are always busy, with crowds peaking from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Spring brings crisp temperatures and clear skies, while fall sees the forest explode in a sea of reds, yellows and golds. Winter can be a magical time to visit, when your Cascade vacation rental is very likely to be dusted in snow. Nearby Tamarack Resort usually opens in December, with 6 lifts, 45 runs and over 1000 acres of terrain to carve up.
