Experience Leavenworth from vacation home rentals
The town of Leavenworth is most proud of one thing: its connections to Germany's Old Bavaria. Set against the scenic Cascade Mountains, enjoy a literal taste of Germany -- from Bavarian-themed restaurants to microbreweries serving up pilsners and hefeweizens inspired by Oktoberfest. Pick up your dirndl and lederhosen from a boutique in town, and get the whole family involved in the Alpine life. Nab a Leavenworth vacation rental overlooking this charming village, or opt for something set in the mountains. We promise the beer will taste just as good at any altitude.

Stunning scenery to be enjoyed from every angle
Leavenworth is pretty pumped about its designation by the Audobon Society as one of Washington State's top birding hotspots, and with good reason. They even hold an annual bird fest each May. But you'll find more than feathered friends in the area -- there's lots of fishing to be enjoyed, too. Just keep in mind that in some areas, all wild fish must be released. If you prefer to take in the sights from just slightly higher up, book a horseback riding tour, or get down low in a river raft, kayak, or inner tube.
