Unexpected surprise in Leavenworth, Peter James Photo Gallery showcases works from Peter James who…read morefocuses on photographing beautiful parks and nature of the PNW and especially WA state. There are many familiar scenes from places like Mt. Rainier, Olympic National Park, Mt. Bakers, etc. The prints range from smaller ones to massive works that can fill up a wall. The images are on metal which creates very vivid and spectacular art work. We met the artist's wife while enjoying the works, and we had a great visit here. Definitely a nice stop while in Leavenworth!

This review is long overdue!…read more Steve and Teri Zimmerman do absolutely beautiful work and are a great husband and wife team. We met Steve & Teri at a Home & Garden show in Wenatchee, WA. At the time we really weren't thinking of getting decorative glass for our home, but looking at Teri's work we decided to invite her over and get her input on our project. After meeting with Teri we had a clear picture in mind of what we wanted. We provided her with some photos, she improvised where necessary, she showed us a few drafts, we agreed on a design and she created a beautiful art piece. Now instead of having a metal or wooden railing near our staircase we have Teri's beautiful artwork. Teri etched the design onto a 1/2" thick tempered glass and her husband installed it. From the first day we met to the final product was less then 2 months. They were easy to work with, and kept to their timeline. All around, I give them 5 stars. :) They are also the artists of the etched glass at the Wenatchee Clinic's waiting area. I truly enjoyed working with them and highly recommend them. Thank you!

From the moment we arrived, it was easy to see the love and care that goes into this family-owned farm. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable, and the educational presentation gave us a whole new appreciation for these amazing animals. The reindeer were the true star, gentle, curious, beautifully cared for, and absolutely magical. Meeting them up close felt like stepping into a winter fairytale, no matter the season. It's one of those rare experiences that's just as meaningful for adults as it is for kids, and one you'll be talking about long after you leave. Safe to say... I left completely obsessed with reindeer, and we're already planning our next visit

Getting up close and feeding the reindeer is something you won't forget. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and happy to help take photos so you can focus on enjoying the experience. Be sure to book your tickets a few weeks in advance, especially during the winter season, as spots fill up quickly. It's one of the most popular attractions in Leavenworth.

We hired Tamara for some restoration-type work in our home.

Our fireplace is very unique in that the brick was salvaged from Pioneer Square long ago when our house was built. With the brick being so special, it meant that it would be hard to match with new materials. We wondered if the cinder block could be painted to look similar to the rest of the fireplace, and so we contacted Tamara. She was great and very professional, from the project proposal through the completion of the work. We are thrilled with the outcome! Thank you, Tamara, for helping us make our first house our home!!

So I will be completely honest, I wanted to go to the Leavenworth Nutcracker Museum. Yes, me, a…read moregrown adult, with no children in tow, just me and my love for quirky, niche museums. No invisible kids, no excuses. I was so excited to finally check it out. After a long ferry ride from Stehekin and a not-so-long drive from Chelan to Leavenworth, I thought we had made it just in time to sneak in before closing. Sadly, I found out the hard way that the museum stops selling tickets 30 minutes before closing (noted on the website - oops) and we arrived five minutes too late. I was disappointed but it just wasn't meant to be. What was meant to be, however, was the gift shop. And let me tell you - this is not your average souvenir shop! It's more like a mini preview of the museum as there were hundreds of nutcrackers on display for purchase and/or admiration. There were traditional German nutcrackers, themed ones (sports, professions, holidays), and even some that were so cute and whimsical. I spent a little time marveling at the variety and craftsmanship. Soooo yes, I got my nutcracker fix even without a ticket to the full museum! From what I could see (and from their website), this place has over 9,000 nutcrackers from more than 50 countries with artifacts dating all the way back to the Roman Empire. It's the kind of collection rarely found in the United States and the museum's mission to preserve and educate about the history and artistry of nutcrackers is honestly so cool. If I'm ever in Leavenworth again, I would try to time it better to try to actually visit the museum. For now, I'm giving a solid four stars because while I didn't get to explore the full museum, the sheer delight of the gift shop, the ambiance, and the nutcracker overload still made it a great stop. Another unique gem tucked in the heart of this Bavarian town, errr, Leavenworth!
