Another weekend trip near Seattle – Lake Chelan at the Q Landing

If you are thinking of a good place to go for a weekend near Seattle in Summer think Lake Chelan. If you have a big family like mine – we were two families 9 adults and two dogs then the normal places like the inns dont cut it.

This place is owned by a couple who don’t live here. THe care taker who came by promptly was a fantastic person.

There was a deposit of 500 $ which was promptly returned to me . The two dogs had a great time. This place is after Lake Chelan not too far. The Kitchen was clean had all the ameneties. The best attraction was tha large hot tub that the kids and adults soaked into.

Stress free few days. There is a grocery store right at the corner. Down town Chelan is just 10 minutes away. The only flaw is that opposite this place is some sort of industrial area, but dont let that fool you.

A neat camping trip in a trailer park in Portland

As promised to Dan I am writing about this fantastic camping trip ( the lazy sort of trip ) we did a couple of years ago in the summer in portland

This is called Gorge Trailer Lodging and run by Dan who I believe works at the local school district. What makes this a fun trip is that you pick a camp site in the Columbia river area and also pick a trailer.

we picked the larger trailer and had two camp sites one for the camping kind and one for the lazy ones. when we arrived the Trailer had already been brought it There was a carpet out, some wood kept for the night. The trailer was impeccably clean too. Beware if you have a pet, they are not allowed in this. That is the only flaw i guess.

Total was a couple of hundred dollars. Cant beat that. We could camp, go out for hikes and in the evenings use the trailer. A must recommended experience if you trying to have fun in portland. If you see this and use thier services, tell them Vibhu Sent you:)
