Escape the crowds. Slow down. Savor fall in the Lewis Clark Valley.

As autumn paints the hillsides in gold, crimson, and amber, the Lewis Clark Valley becomes a picture-perfect place to slow down and savor the season. Where Washington and Idaho meet, fall brings crisp days, colorful landscapes, harvest among the vines, and plenty of reasons to linger a little longer.

Sip the Harvest

Fall is a special time in the Lewis-Clark Valley AVA, home to 78+ Platinum Award-winning wines. Wander through vineyards during harvest, visit welcoming tasting rooms, and raise a glass to the season as local vintners celebrate another year among the vines. Pair your tasting with exceptional local cuisine and savor the flavors of the valley.

Golf Through the Peaks & Valleys

Trade crowded courses for scenic riverside golf, where rolling fairways follow the natural contours of a landscape shaped by the Snake and Clearwater rivers over thousands of years. Play among brilliant fall colors, dramatic canyon walls, and sweeping river views.

Chase the Fall Adventure

Take a Hells Canyon Mailboat excursion deep into the canyon surrounded by exceptional wildlife and scenery. Travel the river’s historic mail route, take in towering canyon walls and fall scenery, and experience the landscape from a perspective few visitors see.

This fall, leave the crowds behind and make room for what matters—good wine, beautiful scenery, great food, outdoor adventure, and time well spent.

A New Perspective on the Oregon Coast

A New Perspective on the Oregon Coast

Beyond the usual suspects like Astoria and Cannon Beach lie 300 miles of open road.

The Oregon Coast is a beguiling drive year-round, but autumn is when it feels most vital. The colors deepen, whales loiter in the shallows, and kites swoop against gray skies dappled with bursts of sunlight. At Tillamook Bay, Highway 101 veers inland through fifty miles of old-growth forest before re-emerging along the water. On this…

Inn at Langley: Where the Shore Meets the Sky

After a property-wide redesign, the Whidbey Island retreat reopens with a locally inspired take on vacationing in the Pacific Northwest.

Michelin-star chef Johnny Spero never planned to end up in the Pacific Northwest. A lifelong East Coaster born and raised in Baltimore, he began his culinary career at 16, working for a series of big-name chefs and restaurants before opening his own establishments in Washington, D.C., including Reverie, which earned him his Michelin star in…

Meet West Seattle’s “Freelance Beaver Detective”

A group of urban beavers helped Pamela Adams through a tough time. Now she’s returning the favor.

Pamela Adams was living in Port Townsend when her marriage fell apart. Little did she know at the time that she would soon find love again while doggedly pursuing the Five Families—not the ones of Mafia lore, but a four-legged sort living along the Longfellow Creek Watershed. Prior to moving to Washington, Adams resided in…

A Wellness Pilgrimage to the Olympic Peninsula

A Wellness Pilgrimage to the Olympic Peninsula

Two hours from Seattle, a new kind of luxury is taking root—one built on stillness, old-growth forests, and the subtle art of slowing down.

There is a school of thought among the overworked and overscheduled that the most subversive thing a person can do is stop. Put down the phone, close the laptop, and go somewhere that actively resists attempts to stay plugged in. The Olympic Peninsula has always offered this, in its blunt, mossy way. For some city…
