CELEBRATE AN AUTHENTIC COUNTRY CHRISTMAS
on Beautiful Bainbridge Island!
Article and photos by Elizabeth Gadbois
A visit to the Country during the holiday season is an memorable treat for the entire family. You will notice an absence of chain stores and strip malls as soon as you set foot on the island, and downtown Winslow sparkles with holiday decorations and delightful sounds and smells. Visit unique Shops, Restaurants, Art Galleries and more. Treat your family to a horse and carriage ride while cutting your own Christmas tree at Bainbridge Island Farms, or enjoy visiting other farms and historic homes while shopping for holiday gifts at the Christmas in the Country tour. Another unique and special holiday tradition is the 25th Annual Bainbridge Island Studio Tour, where you can meet and greet artists while shopping for treasures (both events happen every year on the first weekend of December). Check out our unique Bed and Breakfast Inns, Hotels and more. Christmas carol with locals at Waterfront Park while watching the Argosy Christmas Ship & Lighted Boat Parade (Click Here for more information). From all of us who Live, Work and Play on Bainbridge Island, we wish you a peaceful holiday season! (Many thanks to our friends at Bainbridge Island Downtown Association for installing the beautiful holiday decorations on Winslow Way! ~ HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!)
