Fall is just around the corner, and one of the most stunning places to celebrate the change of the seasons is on the Washington coast, at Seabrook. With unique events, seasonal cuisine and gorgeous autumn colors – Seabrook is just a 2.5 hour drive from Seattle and provides a perfect getaway to celebrate all that fall has to offer.
It’s the best kept secret that September in Washington is a beautiful time of year – and after Labor Day, the pace tends to slow as schools open their doors for the new year. Many find that this is the perfect time of the year to hit the beach and get the most out of your vacation. Grab your hiking shoes and camera and catch some of the best sunsets over the Pacific. Pamper yourself with a walk on the beach, followed by a visit to Spa Elizabeth. Enjoy an afternoon with a good book and happy hour at the Stowaway Wine Bar. With over a dozen shops and restaurants (and more on the way!), Seabrook’s Town Center will keep you entertained, whether it’s painting pottery at Imagine That, finding cute beach gear for the little ones at Seabrook Kids, or stocking up on your fall home décor at SeaWorthy Home.
If a social scene is more your style, Seabrook’s event calendar has you covered. From pumpkin carving to beer festivals – there is something for every child, parent and beachgoer. Kick off fall with Big Foot Brew Fest on October 7th and taste over a dozen local breweries, many with exclusive beers just for Seabrook’s beer festival! There will be food trucks and live entertainment to enjoy while you sip away the day, so best to be a responsible festivalgoer and book a cottage for the weekend to maximize your getaway. Check out the Big Foot Brew Fest event details and learn more about the breweries and entertainment coming to the Washington Coast.
On Saturday, October 14, you have the exclusive opportunity to tour some of the most beautiful and thoughtfully designed homes on the Washington Coast at Seabrook’s Fall Home Showcase. Stroll through open houses while enjoying live music and local fare.
In the Northwest, the bounty is abundant for seasonal cuisine and this is on display at the restaurants in Seabrook. Grab a local pumpkin ale at Mill109 with your razor clam sandwich or head to Frontager’s for a gourmet pizza bursting with flavor and local ingredients.

A Lighthouse Stay on Bellingham Bay
Hotel Bellwether’s refreshed waterfront stay, dapper lobby dog, and scenic route north turn the short drive from Seattle into a real getaway.
The first sign that Bellingham was going to feel farther away than it is came in Edison, over a rich, flaky pastry. Earlier this spring, I was invited to stay at Hotel Bellwether, and my friend and I headed north from Seattle, a roughly 90-mile drive that usually takes about an hour and a half…
Five Lesser-Known Washington State Parks for Spring and Summer

As the outdoor season gets going, many of us, myself included, tend to gravitate toward Washington’s national parks and a handful of the state’s most popular trails. There’s no arguing that they’re pretty spectacular. However, we also know that summer crowds are an issue and detract from the very reason we went in the first…
The Warmest Welcome: Why You Should Visit the Tri-Cities This Year
Just a few hours away from Seattle, this robust community offers great wine, a budding food scene, and more than 300 days of sun.
There is a point, when I’m traveling along Interstate 82 (I-82), somewhere around Exit 26, when I usually notice a shift in the light—especially in the wintertime. Coming out from the pass and heading south to leave the flat, cloud-shrouded gray of Western Washington behind, I feel a burst of happiness at the blue skies…
