A bunch of my family members and I went two days ago, and we had such a great experience at Escape Tactics. This is a must do in Leavenworth for couples, a family, or group of friends. The Das Boot room that we did really ties in the whole experience of the town. I’ve done escape rooms in a few different cities across the country, and they all feel different. The game master was very nice and they’re building a new room right now that I would love to do next time I’m in the area. Whether you’re a tourist or you’re a local with guests in town, you should definitely book an hour here!

Fun family adventure walking through the maze of beautifully manicured natural grounds exploring and finding waterfalls and pools, taking in the views and just enjoying time stretching your legs outside in a pretty area. The trails were all stone slab pieces which everyone really liked. Staff there are super nice and pleasant too!

We had nice family picnic on the water and watched the sun set; we also walked along the bike path early in the morning. There were were also the cleanest public restrooms I have ever encountered.
5. Mission Ridge Ski and Board Resort
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 159 reviews
Mission Ridge is in the heart of Washington State where the jagged peaks of the Cascade Range meet the high rugged desert of eastern Washington. A volcanic past has created a ridge where snowcapped peaks shimmer on one side and the Columbia River rolls majestically through eastern Washington on the other. But don’t let the view distract you, Mission Ridge has over 2000 acres to explore. Carve tree lined groomers, float through wide open bowls, wiggle through glades or scream down narrow chutes. Now throw in tons of sunshine, heaps of dry snow, and reams of velvety corduroy and you have Washington’s most distinctive winter playground. Make us your Mission this season.

I skiied Mission Ridge for the first time since 2002 on December 30th, 2019. Really great quantity and quality of terrain, more modern lifts, great new main lodge, and great snow quality, a hard-to-find feature lately. I am a Seattle-resident skiier who grew up skiing Mount Baker when I lived further north. As a retired "super-senior" now I have inexpensive season passes at Baker, Snoqualmie,and Stevens. I got back in shape starting with the 2017/2018 season. Warmer temperatures have delayed and degraded ski area snow quality along the west side of the Cascade Range last season and this season. Very late coverage, then too much thaw and refreeze. Very difficult to groom. Mission Ridge is the answer. Colder weather on the east side of the range. Less snow you say? Not since they invested in Sun Valley style snow making. And they have some of the best grooming around. Cheap, quality hotels in central Wenatchee are 20 minutes from the parking lot. Buying a pass there first, next year.

Wow, what a find! My wife & I happened to be visiting and drive by the Columbia River where we encountered a Pike's Place like public market (in Seattle). We almost drove on though I said "Hey, what's in there?" and glad we entered. A warehouse-like building with a myriad of small shops and restaurants in this large open building. A very cool atmosphere!

The seats are amazingly comfortable. It's great to be able to enjoy a good movie without having to squirm around trying to get comfortable.
