Your Ultimate Guide to Spring Adventures
As winter begins to melt into spring, Lake Chelan awakens with a charm that’s
impossible to resist. For those who know, March is a month of secret delights—a time
when the vineyards start to bud, the air is crisp, and the lake reflects the snow-dusted
peaks like a mirror. Whether you’re a seasoned visitor or discovering Chelan for the first
time, there’s something extraordinary about this time of year. Read on to discover some of our favorite things to do at Lake Chelan.
Sip and Savor: Wineries & Breweries
March is Washington Wine Month, and Lake Chelan’s vineyards and wineries are
uncorking their finest bottles. Don’t miss the Taste Chelan event, where award-winning
wines pair with gourmet bites for a sensory experience. Stop by Silver Bell Winery for
their new releases or unwind at Siren Song Wines for happy hour with stunning lake
views. Prefer hops over grapes? Explore Stormy Mountain Brewing for seasonal craft
beers that celebrate the flavors of the Pacific Northwest.
Live Music & Nightlife: Evenings to Remember
The nights come alive with music and laughter. Tipsy Canyon Winery hosts live
performances by local artists, making it the perfect spot to sip and sway. For a fun twist,
join the Think & Drink Thursdays at Campbell’s Resort—a trivia night where the
questions are challenging, and the pours are generous. If you’re up for some late-night
fun, Cosmic Bowling at Chelan Lanes turns strikes into celebrations under black lights
and lasers.
Outdoor Adventures: Embrace the Wild
The trails surrounding Lake Chelan are at their most serene in March. Lace-up for hikes
that wind through pines and open up to breathtaking views of the lake. For those who
seek a gentler pace, consider a wine hike—trails that end with a glass of red or white at
a nearby vineyard. The waters might still be cold, but a morning kayak across the glassy
surface of the lake is pure magic.
Local Flavor: Restaurants to Savor
Dining in Chelan is an experience in itself. From cozy cafes offering freshly baked
pastries to waterfront restaurants serving seafood caught that very morning, March
invites you to indulge. For a farm-to-table experience, reserve a spot at Andante or drop
by Local Myth Pizza for a slice that’s anything but ordinary.
Wellness & Relaxation: Unwind Completely
If your idea of a getaway includes rest and rejuvenation, Lake Chelan has you covered.
Join Yoga + Wine at Silver Bell Winery for a morning of movement followed by a well-
earned glass of Merlot. Afterward, soak in the private hot tub at our vacation rental or
book a massage at one of Chelan’s boutique spas.
Swing into Spring: Golf Courses Worth Playing
March is the perfect time to hit the greens at Lake Chelan. Tee off at the Chelan
Municipal Golf Course, where rolling fairways and lake views create an unforgettable
round. For those seeking more of a challenge, Bear Mountain Ranch Golf Course offers
dramatic elevation changes and jaw-dropping vistas that might just make you pause
before your next drive. With crisp spring air and fewer crowds, March is your chance to
experience Chelan’s best-kept golfing secrets.
Your Home Away from Home
After a day of exploring, come back to our six-bedroom, five-bathroom vacation
home—your sanctuary just a two-minute walk from the lake and a five-minute stroll to
downtown. With a private pool, hot tub, and a spacious backyard, it’s the perfect place
to unwind.
