Top Four Washington Cities Filled With Christmas Cheer
Let’s be honest: we’re all looking forward to a little holiday magic this year. You know what we mean - the snow, the bright lights, the Christmas trees glittering in every window. As we head into winter and the new year, you may find yourself looking for a Christmas getaway that feels especially full of magic. (After 2020, you deserve it!)
Here are four cities in Washington that have absolutely nailed the magic of the holiday season! These locations would be a fun winter vacation getaway for your family, or a cozy, wintry place to settle down.
Leavenworth
This list would not be complete without a Leavenworth Christmas - Washington’s own Bavarian town in the Cascade Mountains, near Wenatchee. Every winter, they host a plethora of incredible holiday events and vendor markets; and their picture perfect Hallmark decor makes for a charming winter wonderland.
Spokane
Just a few minutes away from the Idaho border and Coeur d’Alene, Spokane is a northeast Washington city that turns delightfully snowy during the winter months. The historic downtown Spokane and beautiful architecture makes for a wonderful Christmas stroll - and you can even catch a carriage ride during the month of December!
Port Townsend
Port Townsend is the kind city that encourages you to think small this holiday season. An artistic city with a historic “uptown” that overlooks the water, Port Townsend hosts several holiday markets and craft fairs each year. This is a perfect event for people looking for those unique, local gifts!
Walla Walla
In southern Washington, Walla Walla is the holiday destination you’re looking for. Just a short drive from Pendleton, Oregon, Walla Walla is best known for its vineyards; so this little town is a marvelous winter getaway for wine lovers everywhere. Their local selection also makes for some great Christmas gift ideas!
Wherever you end up this winter, we hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy. And if you’re interested in purchasing a house in any of Washington’s winter wonderland cities, give us a call! We’d love to help you find the perfect place to snuggle up this holiday season.
