Thanksgiving in Chelan. Great food, fresh apples, big kitchen, warm fire…. The Union Valley Lodge is a great place for a Thanksgiving week get-away and family gathering.
Christmas Holidays in Chelan The views of the mountains and lake from the Union Valley Lodge in the snow are stupendous. We’ll put out Christmas decorations. (And of course we plow the drive for you… though 4-wheel drive vehicles are recommended.) - Skiing: Echo Valley Ski Resort offers tubing, a small ski hill and outstanding nordic/cross-country skiing. They've even added skate skiing trails. Chelan is also only an hour drive from Mission Ridge Ski resort which offers a great downhill skking and snow-boarding venue with much smaller lines that you get at the ski resorts closer to Seattle.
