A wonderful retreat from city life. Restaurant on main level is a bit upscale (reservations recommended), however climb the stairs to "The Attic" for a cozy, warm winter evening, with beautiful sunset views of the Cascade mountain range and the falls. Tasty happy hour fare and acoustic music on Fridays. The Lodge also has a luxurious spa - mmmm!

Fabulous musicals from Broadway and originals, in one of the most beautiful Theaters in the Northwest - if not the world. Intimate and elegant, great staff, and great views from all seats. Some theater-goers are dressed to the "9s" - but alas a good portion of 21st century audience members are much more casual.
