The Entire Lake
On a map, Lake Chelan looks more like a snake then a proper lake. From the town of Chelan, where you stayed last night, you cannot see the other end. So today, you'll fix that problem by taking a boat to the far side. Once there, you'll explore a very small town that is only accessible by boat or foot.

Mellisoni Vineyards
Sights
Open Details
To wrap up your boat ride day, do the other thing that Chelan is known for: go wine tasting at a vineyard. There are plenty of wineries to choose from, and Mellisoni Vineyards is a good one. It's founded on the premise of agritourism, or sharing the production experience with the customer. Their hours are variable depending on the day, so book your tasting in advance. If any of the wines taste familiar, it could be because you had some last night at Andante!
