Went to Karma's Winterfest Happy Hour 4-8 pm; $50/$60 per person; taco bar, etc. Arrived at 5 pm…read moreand place was packed. Stand-up tables in the middle of the room, chairs and regular tables around perimeter of 1/2 of the room. The people at stand-up tables had placed their coats, etc. on top of the perimeter tables and chairs. So we had no where to place our plates, wine and drinks. I moved coats from one table to another covered table to clear a place for us to use. Here's the issue: even though Karma is a venue for special events, not one employee, nor manager, had the ability to see this problem with seating/tables and find a coat rack ... certainly they must have them there. Next, a couple of guests try to get in my face about moving "their coats" as though "their coats" deserved a table of their own. A most uncomfortable evening when all we wanted was to enjoy our food and drink, hoping, in vain, some manager at Karma would seek a level of professionalism that would avoid a problem like this. I paid $100 for this??? Lake Chelan has wonderful wineries that do an excellent job, and I would recommend almost anyone other than Karma. Thanks for reading.

This is a spot I never miss when I come to Chelan! It is truly one of the most beautiful wineries…read more I always make a reservation and find that people with reservations get nicer tables, so would recommend that. Upon walking up, you pass by a lovely little landscaped waterfall and go over a bridge, and just know you are about to be somewhere beautiful. The plants and landscaping here are stunning and add to the sunny allure. The koi pond is also so pretty and surrounded with flowers. They have tons of umbrellas and shady spots, making this nice for even the hotter days of summer. I generally order the bubbles flight here, as they are known for their sparkling. This includes three very generous pours, which are pre-selected. I love comparing the flavors and trying something new every time I go! My friend and I always get great photos here. It's a wonderful place to dress up and take photos. Shoutout to their bathrooms too- very very spacious and clean. Do not miss the best bubbles and vibes in Chelan!

Used Ivywild from a local restaurant referral for a post memorial service reception. Though the…read moreoccasion was somber it was made more comforting by Ivywild's spot on catering. We arrived on a menu in minutes and though we over-planned (better than the alternative!) the execution was perfect. Try especially the Thai beef wraps (appy size). Lemon Bars were crazy good as desserts. We had ample and well-chosen fruits and berries. No pretense to the menu, just big bright flavors that showed up on time and made people of many age groups and backgrounds happy. Highly recommended.

Carl was an amazing DJ for our wedding. Everyone enjoyed the music and he read the crowd perfectly…read moreso everyone was dancing all night. He was flexible as we adjusted the wedding timeline and was a great MC. Katie was helpful in planning prior to the event and their website is easy to navigate. Appreciated having their experience at my wedding and would definitely recommend.

At first we didn't think we were going to hire a wedding coordinator, then after much thought, we…read moredecided we should hire a wedding coordinator, and now that the wedding is over, I would have to say, it was money well spent, and I am so thankful we hired Gather as our day-of-wedding-coordinator! Our venue was in Easton, WA (right outside of Cle Elum area) and it was hard finding local vendors since Easton really isn't much of a city. We came across Gather Leavenworth on Wedding Wire, hopped on the phone with them, didn't look elsewhere and went with Gather. They were more than happy to travel! We hired them pre-pandemic with an original wedding date of 9/26/2020, but then had to postpone to 2021, and they were super easy to work with! Even though we hired them for day-of-wedding coordination, they had a lot of wedding tools you can utilize months before, that I wish we utilized more. But with the pandemic, we were thrown in to a bit of a funk with wedding planning. Gather sent reminder emails throughout the planning and they were so helpful! They came out the day before our wedding to run the rehearsal and go through all the decor and everything. Then day of wedding, everything went so smoothly! Ashley and Tarcy were amazing to work with! I would highly recommend hiring them to coordinate your big day! Super happy with their services!

Everyone kept telling me how stressful the process was and how I'd be worried about things coming together and I never felt stressed the entire time, and was able to completely enjoy my day knowing everything was taken care of. An event planner myself, I have a hard time going to an event and not paying attention to all the details but they had them all covered. It's helpful they have relationships with all the vendors in town and with their help, we put together a vendor dream team. We could not have been happier with the whole planning and execution of the whole wedding and know anyone that hires Gather Leavenworth will be equally as pleased.

We decided to stay here after agreeing to be in a wedding that was taking place at the event center…read morehere. I was shocked that none of the wedding party chose to book lodging here when the wedding was here, because this place was so much nicer than the big hotels down in town. Regardless, we had our pick of the place, and chose the king bed room called Songbird as far from the event center as possible in case the festivities went late and we wanted to crash. Finding the event center was a disaster. We took a lot longer to get up from Oregon to Manson, and by the time we got up to the lake, it was already dark. Thankfully they had us in contact with them via their text concierge line, and helped us when we got turned around, and we finally arrived. We were greeted warmly by the young lady staffing the center, and she showed us to our room. Even though it was pitch black outside, we were able to get a general feel for the property, and it was lovely. The room was immaculately designed, had a fresh and newly built smell, and we were super pleased with the quality of the amenities. The bed was super comfy, all the linens and towels were Matouk, which we love, and the space was warm and inviting. It felt like we were staying at a spa, and the only thing missing was an in-room massage. Despite it being the start of winter, our room was perfectly climate controlled and didn't leave us feeling dried up like some hotels do with in-room ac/heat. The shower was luxurious with really nice in-shower bath products, but I absolutely LOVED their bathrobes, which were ultra-plush lined, super warm, and very cozy. I wanted to take one home with me but I resisted! I did text them after our stay was over because I definitely want to order the towels from our room- they were beyond excellent. What a find. The next day, when it was fully light outside, we took a little walk around the property, and a drive around the city. It was so nice to be away from all the goings on in town, and felt like a little getaway during our getaway. The wedding was over the weekend, and the staff did an amazing job rolling with quite a mishmash of characters at the wedding during covid. We met the owner Jacqueline and her sweet pups at one point during rehearsal before the wedding, and she was so sweet and genuine, I know why this place is such a gem. Overall, I was really impressed and delighted with our stay here, and the venue was perfect for the event as well. If I were to be in the area again, even if it wasn't for an event at this location, I would definitely go out of my way to stay at Harmony Meadows again. Delightful experience, and I highly recommend staying here!
