Geordie Romer, CRS, e-PRO: Real Estate Agent in Leavenworth, WA

Over on my main blog, I have posted my annual review of the Leavenworth market.

We've been really lucky that Leavenworth hasn't seen the massive depreciation that other markets have, though the number of sales has dropped off sharply.

Leavenworth Needs More Condos

Geordie Romer, CRS, e-PRO: Real Estate Agent in Leavenworth, WA

My partner Allyson’s reaction to our success selling condos in 2009 might flabbergast some local real estate agents. “We need more condo projects!”

But Geordie, doesn’t Leavenworth currently have YEARS of supply of unsold condos?” you gasp.

Indeed it does, but there is room for new condos in our market.

Bed and Breakfast in Leavenworth, Washington

Bed and Breakfast in Leavenworth, Washington

It’s the holiday season! Have you ever wanted to experience a true winter wonderland? Well this weekend my husband and I did just that in a beautiful and historical Bed and Breakfast named Pine River Ranch located only miles outside of the unbelievably beautiful Bavarian Village of Leavenworth Washington.

When my husband told me we had to stay in Washington for our holiday I was disappointed... that is until we drove into the little town of Leavenworth! It was like we drove right into a tiny German Village. You would never think you were on the same continent shopping in the quant little curio shops down beautiful cobblestone streets. Authentic german food is served on every corner and live music fills the air. It is truly the epitome of a Winter Wonderland!

And I haven’t even described the amazing bed and breakfast we found there! Pine River Ranch! Their suites are some of the most beautiful, charming and ultimately romantic settings I have ever seen!


Entrance to Pine River Ranch Bed and Breakfast

When I walked into our suite, the setting was so comfortable and cozy I wanted to curl up right then next to the custom built river rock fireplace. I couldn’t decide if I wanted to jump right into the immense 2 person Jacuzzi Tub! Then I saw the beautiful custom built king sized bed... I just laid back into the most comfortable thing I’d ever had the privilege of laying in. I could have slept right then.... but I was too excited!

A soft cozy throw rug laid in front of the fireplace is perfect for cuddling with a mug of hot chocolate or champagne. The flat screen satellite TV and music is excellent if you wish to set a soft romantic mood or curl up to a movie.

As the closest Bed and Breakfast to Steven's Pass, Pine River Ranch in Leavenworth Washington is the perfect place to add some romance into a ski trip! They even offer discounted lift tickets! Just ask Tim! That’s what we did! IIt was hard to pull me off the hill, that is until I remembered the Jacuzzi tub waiting for me at the bed and breakfast!

Actual pictures of this Bed and Breakfast

In the morning we woke up to breakfast in bed! And this was no ordinary bed and breakfast! Fresh blended smoothie and fruit tray consisting of water mellon, grapes, strawberries and cantaloupe complimented the Homemade country style omelet and potatoes AND Fresh baked coffee cake all delivered to your door! Yes we did take the entire tray of goodies and snuggled in our bed and breakfast and dinned like a King and Queen. This Bed and Breakfast also has a kitchenette with microwave, refrigerator, coffee-maker and even a Espresso Machine which was great for me because I’m a coffee addict!

Locally located in Leavenworth, Washington this is simply the most wonderful Bed and Breakfast we have ever visited and you simply MUST find a weekend to go there! Find out why they are rated the Best Bed and Breakfast in the Northwest by Evening Magazine.
