Review & FAQ:

Roslyn is a charming Upper Kittitas County town located within easy driving distance from Leavenworth, known as a top outdoor recreation destination in the Cascade Mountains. Roslyn, which was originally founded in the mid-19th century as a coal mining settlement, is named in honor of the Delaware town of the same name and was featured as the backdrop for the popular 1990s television series Northern Exposure.

Fans of the television show can view iconic locations like the city's Ruth-Anne's store or KHBR radio station, which were featured as locations within the series' fictional town of Cicely, Alaska. Year-round recreational opportunities abound, including chances for fishing, mountain biking, horseback riding, and golf. The Roslyn Museum showcases exhibits related to the city's history and culture, while the Roslyn Brewery serves up delicious bar fare in the state's oldest-operating tavern facility.
