The 10 Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Chelan, Washington (WA)

Yogachelan in located in the beautiful resort town of Chelan, Washington. The Studio is in the Historic Whaleys Building build in 1914, previously the home to the F.O.E and later Chelan's record store. It went several years unoccupied until 2012 when owner Jean Ashby was ready to bring it back to life. Lynda had been looking for a new space for the studio and though the space was in need of lots of repair she knew this was it. The space is about 900 square feet, has original hard wood floors, 11 foot ceiling, and that amazing brick wall with all its character.

Those rare places that can grow grapes, that can produce world class wines, have much in common. A certain look, a certain feel, and the right soils, permeate these lands. Many are graced by the moderating influences of a great body of water. It was only a matter of time before vineyards came to the banks of Lake Chelan and indeed grapes have been grown here for decades.We started a small experimental vineyard in the early 1990’s. The results were mixed. But the critical lessons were learned. The grapes would survive the winters. The influence of the lake in both moderating winter cold and summer heat was clear. The growing season is warm but shorter in days. Selection of grape varieties would need to match those conditions leading some to believe that Lake Chelan would become exclusively a white wine region, hardly the case. It is true, Lake Chelan will never be noted for the late ripening reds like Cabernet Sauvignon but, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Syrah and many other reds will flourish here.Armed with the results of the test vineyard, we purchased nearly eight acres on the cooler South Shore. In the spring of 2000 we planted Pinot Noir, Merlot, Chardonnay and Viognier. The assumptions we made have proven correct. The vineyard thrives and we welcome you taste our wines and to judge for yourself if we made the right choices. We invite you to bring your picnic and embrace our gorgeous lake and mountain views.

Situated on Lake Chelan's south shore, the Neff family produces award-winning red and white wines.

Since 2001, we have been patiently transforming former farm land to vineyards and a simple stone cottage into our current tasting and production facilities. For four generations, the Evans family has farmed the deep soils of the Chelan Valley, growing world-class apples in the unique lake-tempered climate.

Faces may change, different hands may perform the labor, but the message is the same: we are family, come join us. We think of enjoying wine at Tunnel Hill as a bit of a homecoming. A chance to settle down. Calm the mind. Quiet those feet. Friendly faces, dog and kid friendly spaces. Come! Pay us a visit. You will enjoy yourself.
