Things to Do in Washington and Kettle Falls This Fall: Enjoy the Season's Best Activities

It's my favorite season! As the crisp autumn air settles in and the leaves turn vibrant shades of red, orange, and gold, the area around Gardenview Estate Bed & Breakfast offers a range of delightful fall activities. Here’s a roundup of things to do this fall to make the most of the season.


1. Fall Foliage Viewing

One of the best ways to enjoy the fall season is by taking in the stunning fall foliage. The surrounding landscape is transformed into a breathtaking mosaic of colors. Explore nearby hiking trails, such as the scenic routes around Lake Roosevelt or the picturesque paths of the Colville National Forest, to fully immerse yourself in the beauty of autumn. The vibrant leaves against the backdrop of rolling hills and tranquil lakes create a perfect setting for a fall day out.



2. Colville Pumpkin Patch & Corn Maze

For family-friendly fun, head over to the Colville Pumpkin Patch & Corn Maze which just celebrated its season opening September 21st. This local favorite features a sprawling corn maze that provides a fun challenge for all ages. Pick out the perfect pumpkin from their pumpkin patch, squash or corn from their marketplace, and snap a fun photo at their photo backdrop. It’s a great way to get into the spirit of fall and create lasting memories with loved ones.



3. Marcus CiderFest

Celebrate the season at the Marcus CiderFest, an annual event that showcases the best of local apple cider. This festival features fresh pressed cider tastings, live music, food vendors, beer garden and car show. It’s a fantastic opportunity to enjoy the flavors of fall and participate in fun activities. Whether you’re a cider fan or just looking for a fun outing, Marcus Cider Fest is a must-visit event. This' year's event will be help October 5th.



4. Cozy Up Inside

When it’s time to unwind, Gardenview Estate provides the perfect setting for a cozy fall retreat. Curl up with a good book in front of our crackling brick fireplace, or challenge yourself with a jigsaw puzzle. Our inviting common areas offer a warm and comfortable environment to relax and enjoy the fall season indoors.



5. S’mores by the Fire

For a special treat, consider adding a s’mores kit to your booking. Gather around the propane fire pit in our gazebo to enjoy a classic autumn experience. Toast marshmallows, make s’mores, and savor the flavors of fall while taking in the crisp evening air.



6. Explore Local Farmers’ Markets

Fall is a wonderful time to visit local farmers’ markets, where you can find a bounty of seasonal produce. Check out markets in nearby towns for fresh apples, squash, pumpkins, and other fall vegetables. It’s also a great chance to support local farmers and artisans. The nearby Colville Farmers Market is Wednesdays & Saturdays from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. The Chewelah Farmers Market runs Fridays from 11:00 am to 3:30 pm with the season ending October 11th. Learn more about the Farmers Markets in the greater area HERE.



7. Enjoy Outdoor Activities

Take advantage of the cooler fall weather by engaging in outdoor activities such as hiking, biking or kayaking. The area's scenic trails and lakes provide perfect opportunities for enjoying nature’s beauty and tranquility. I have a separate post all about hikes if you'd like some ideas.


Embrace the fall season with these activities and make the most of the beautiful autumn weather. From stunning foliage to cozy indoor moments, there’s plenty to see and do near Gardenview Estate. We look forward to welcoming you this fall!
