While visiting the Lake Chelan Valley, take time to stroll through small town America. There is something about Lake Chelan that makes you feel at home. People wave at each other, store owners greet you by name, and folks use any excuse to gather along the sidewalk just to catch up on community news. Parades still feature kids and dogs, and community events revolve around families.

Rediscover the pure pleasure of shopping as you explore our quaint shops and boutiques, galleries and gift shops. Stroll through a variety of stores where the conversation is as enjoyable as the shopping and extra services like gift wrapping aren't considered "extra." Many of the shops in Chelan, Manson, Stehekin and Holden Village feature the works of local artisans and craftsman so you can take a piece of the Lake Chelan Valley home with you. Don't worry about getting your purchases home - most shops can arrange for shipping.
