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

So much Love for Malaga Springs Winery that I got on the waitlist to get involved in the wine club!…read more We stumbled upon Malaga Springs Winery a few years ago while camping about an hour away. There was a major accident blocking the thoroughfare and we had to take a detour over the mountain through the sno park. This significant detour gave us an opportunity to see landscape we wouldn't have known existed. Unfortunately, there was a food truck that day and the accident meant the food truck and winery had many fewer visitors than anticipated. So they were really glad to see us. We met Al, the man who owns the place with his wife Kathy. Through our tasting and eating, we began learning about the Malaga Springs Winery story. It began our love affair with the place. Every summer since, we make our way to the winery bringing new people with us almost every time. I wish everyone who made their way there was required to read the history of the place, how it all came to be, before they began their tasting and nibbling. It would really enhance their experience. I think it's so important I'm adding it here: MALAGA SPRINGS WINERY HISTORY The happy circumstance of Kathy and me finding this site, as well as learning that the area got its name from grapes planted in the late 1800's as the railroad was being constructed to Seattle, was another stroke of luck. We were lucky again to have found, after a long search, what we believe to be grape plants from the original stock. The owners have let us take cuttings, and we are attempting to start a small vineyard from these cuttings, with the aim of producing what would have been the local wine years ago. In 2010 we opened our tasting room, and as people have discovered us, our traffic through it has increased as has the production from the grapes, as they mature and come into full bearing. Our sustainable straw bale buildings, as well as our farming styles are well suited to the natural environment, with all the wildflowers and critters still at home in the mostly undisturbed valley grasses. In 2010, we opened our new and dedicated tasting room to handle the increased visitation, and also to give us more flexibility with large groups and events. As in all our buildings and grounds, Kathy's design skills and artistic sensibilities have created beautiful and unique spaces that speak to our vision of and love for the natural world. GEOLOGY Malaga Springs Winery came about as the result of some happy circumstances, historical cataclysms and just plain good luck. The virgin soils, which form the backbone of the winemaking enterprise, were deposited as a result of the glacial Lake Missoula floods near the end of the last ice age. Their unique nature, both mineralogically and how they hold moisture, is part of the key to why our grapes produce such dark, complex and balanced reds, and luscious, floral and fruity whites. The spectacular basalt cliffs that literally form our back fence also perform a double function; they are solar collectors during the day and heating during the night and early morning hours. They also underlie the deposited soils, so that the grapes roots penetrate and surround this terrific source of minerality. Al and Kathy's wines are delicious, affordable, and made with love. Everything about this place is made with love. Unpretentious. Friendly. Human vibe. Genuineness. Authenticity. So many adjectives I use to describe Malaga Springs Winery, Al, and Kathy. Unlike most other wineries in Chelan, Wenatchee, and there area, Al and Kathy don't hire a marketing crew and they don't toot their own horn. They let their space and their wines speak for itself. Because you have to go there on purpose to find them, they are underrepresented and still folks don't know about them. They're found word of mouth. So share the love, get their name on everyone's lips who wants to taste in the area. Share the love. Maybe you'll also want to join the waitlist to get involved with the wine club.

I loved the chaps made from Buffalo hair, and the old organs that won't play unless one pumps the foot petals. Of course, the outside village is an amazing collection of settlers' cabins and other structures, all with period-appropriate furnishings. I'm in a wheelchair; I found the museum to be very accessible. Admission is $10-12 at most, and Veterans are free. But seriously, consider making a donation anyway. These wonderful places require so much upkeep. We don't want to lose them!

On Saturday 11 September 2021, I visited the Cashmere Museum and Pioneer Village as a solo female…read moretraveler. The front desk worker was a bit brusque in their interactions, however there were a few of us entering at once, so it might have just been a bit overwhelming for them. As someone on a budget, the price was a little on the high side, however nothing exorbitant. The exhibits were easy to navigate and good use was made of the available space. Artifacts were meticulously laid out both inside the main museum and in the pioneer village. The Great Northern Railway car was open to exploration, which was very neat. The whole pioneer village was well maintained and a great way to get some context for what life in Cashmere was like in the past. I noted a few bloopers on my visit, one concerning geology and one concerning currency. Some people I know love bloopers, in Hollywood they are something that might go wrong in constructing/putting together a movie and are visible in the final product, and they feel it can add to the overall experience. However, I am not currently the biggest fan of bloopers, though I used to enjoy them more, perhaps I am just a bit rusty on their enjoyment value.

Unfortunately, I made a mistake when booking and my tickets are for this Friday instead of next Friday. I made a mistake, yes. However, when I called, they said it's their policy to not correct mistakes or even exchange the tickets. So, I'm out $95 because they don't want to move the tickets to the night I could go. The tickets are during a sold out night. The two tickets would sell in a heartbeat, but they are not willing do anything. This will be my third visit, actually my fourth since we are seeing two separate shows two nights in a row. I will never make this mistake again, but I won't return now. I think this policy is horrible and I will now boycott them. They get 5 stars for the shows and venue because the talent is truly great. They get 1 star for terrible customer service. I met both in the middle with a 3 star review.

For the tourist it was a very minor difficulties/confusion. But once inside I felt like I grew up here. Now I've said this and many other theater reviews- You already know that snacks, popcorn, water and sodas are outrageously priced, prepare for that and don't complain. With that .....
