LAKE CHELAN, WASHINGTON
NESTLED IN A VALLEY OF EASTERN WASHINGTON
NATURAL MAN MADE LAKE WITH CRYSTAL BLUE WATERS
Lake Chelan is a favorite summer vacation spot for local Washingtonians. To escape the rain in Seattle, people flock to Eastern Washington to see the sun shine and enjoy the heat of summer. While vacationing in Lake Chelan this past summer, I was able to snap some shots of the sunset beyond the mountain range while sitting on the dock outside our Lake Chelan Resort.
As a child, I remember the Fourth of July vacations to Lake Chelan. We were able to swim in the Lake and head downtown to enjoy ice cream and ride the bumper boats. It has been several years (more like a decade) since I have visited Eastern Washington and I was amazed at the growth Lake Chelan has encountered. Downtown Chelan was bustling with tourist visiting the local boutiques and the weekly farmers market. Stop in All Fired Up located at 109 S Emerson St Chelan, WA to create your own Lake Chelan vacation memories out of ceramics. Chelan has recently seen the big box store - Wal-Mart become part of their city. Real Estate in the local area is heavily marketed towards Seattle residents looking for a second vacation home or retirement home. Condo's are lining the water banks while across the Lake you see the beautiful lake front homes built into the side of the mountains.
If you are relocating to the Lake Chelan area or considering a second home purchase, Al Lorenz publishes local real estate information for the Lake Chelan and surrounding areas.
