At the time of year when the sun’s daily appearance is often short-lived, the following warm places in Washington State are your first choice.
Alderbrook Resort & Spa
Less than a two-hour drive from Seattle, located on the edge of the Hood Canal, a nature-filled retreat（休养处）is waving. Seals slide along the waters of the Alderbrook dock（码头）, playing a game of “Go Fish”with dive-bombing seabirds. As you sit on the shaking dock just minutes after arrival,you are already in a quieter world.
Suncadia Resort
A mountain escape awaits just over the pass on 1-90, about 80 miles east of Seattle. The resort’s annual Winterfest lasts through January 2, full of holiday celebrations and winter recreation, from cross-county skiing and snow mobile tours to ice skating and snowshoe tours. Willows Lodge
Twenty miles from Seattle,this luxury lodge is nestled into the centre of Woodinville Wine Country. Situated on five landscaped acres that border the Sammamish River, the Northwest-style lodge is within walking distance of more than 35 tasting rooms. When you step into the lodge, fire crackles and hot apple rolls welcome your arrival with a celebratory air.
Seattle-area Retreats
Salish Lodge & Spa is a scenic 30-minute drive from Seattle, bringing you to a lodge integrating Old World atmosphere and modern elegance. Get out to enjoy the surrounding nature, hiking near the rushing 270-foot-tall Snoqualmie Falls or trying activities like fly fishing and snowshoeing. Head to North Bend for a slice of Twede’s Cafe strawberry pie.
