5. Come for the beach, stay for the peace in Lake Chelan. Some people rent a house on the dock. A better suggestion that I tried some years back was to find a friend with a boat, that way, you all can drive to Chelan, ride up the lake on the boat, and then camp overnight on the beach. #Bliss.

Now that I've given you some ideas, happy summer vacation planning!
