So if you’re ready to get out there, here are 10 weekend getaways near Seattle to try this fall.

Leavenworth

This town is normally everyone’s go-to for winter but we think it’s equally special in the fall. So if you want some Bavarian charm in your life be sure to head here. After all, there’s much to do in town and lots of nature to explore.

Goldmyer Hot Springs

These hot springs are regarded as some of the states best geothermal hot springs. But with that in mind, they are highly protected and as such, only a limited number of people can use them a day. So we recommend checking the website for the next available reservation dates.

Cost: $20

Edison

If you want some waterfront views along with your fall vibes then we recommend heading to Edison. This little town is home to some amazing artists and restaurants. So we think it’s a great place to spend a fall weekend while relaxing and treating yourself.

Salish Lodge & Spa

This lodge at Snoqualmie Falls is pretty iconic thanks to the series Twin Peaks and also their beloved pancake mix. So if you want a relaxing getaway with some views and spa treatment then we highly recommend you head here.

Anacortes

If you’re in the mood to head a bit further north you can always head to the town of Anacortes. This town is the access point to many of our state’s islands and overlooks Padilla Bay as well as Rosario Strait. So for some quaint waterfront vibes, you can’t go wrong with Anacortes.

Doe Bay Resort

And if you feel like actually escaping to the Islands, you can always head to Doe Bay Resort on Orcas Island. Because this beautiful and relaxing spot doubles as a resort and spa and you can’t go wrong with that. Not to mention, we always love a good ferry ride.

Olympic National Park

This is probably Washington’s most spectacular park and if you didn’t make it out there this summer we recommend doing it this fall. After all, there are multiple places to stay or camp in the park. And tons and tons of hiking to be done. But be sure to check the park’s website before making the trek out there.
