Located near Lake Chelan in central Washington, Harmony Meadows Tennis Resort marries—no pun intended—a wedding venue with a tennis club. The boutique resort sits on 12½ acres against a scenic backdrop of mountains and vineyards, its 13 rooms variously tucked into an inn, hayloft, and cottages. A swath of tennis courts, 8 in all, stretch out along one side, bordered by lawns and vineyards on the right and apple orchards on the left. Two pickleball courts add to the mix.
It is exceedingly rare to have a court:room ratio that large, and the devotion to tennis is further reflected in the professional tennis staff. To insure a high-quality experience, the resort hired Tom Fey as tennis director. He is a 45-year veteran of the industry who had most recently run the programs at Indian Wells Tennis Garden, the site of the annual BNP Paribas tournament. He’s joined by Tom Edsall, who ran adult and junior programs at his academy in North Carolina. The roster they’ve put together includes clinics and private lessons, as you might expect, but also focuses on staging tennis camps, both midweek and weekend, with or without lodging.
I haven’t yet had a chance to visit, but it bodes well that the owners, tech entrepreneurs Jacquelyn and Jeremy Jaech, are passionate about tennis having taken it up late in life. They had often vacationed at Lake Chelan, where they have a second home, drawn by the 50-mile-long lake, 350 days of sunshine, and some 40 wineries. Looking for a project that could incorporate their love to tennis, they found a disused property and within a year had turned it into a haven for tennis players. They’ve taken a hands-on approach to managing the resort, making it as personal as it is intimate. The beauty and tranquility of the setting makes it an ideal wedding venue, and the Jaechs are equally accommodating to family gatherings, corporate events, and, of course, tennis groups. No marriage plans required.

Harmony Meadows has done a free after-school tennis clinic for the kids and it has been an outstanding program for our kids. This is the 2nd year they have done it and it has taught kids the basics of tennis and is developing a love for tennis in the kids. The coaches are amazing and high energy!
Harmony Meadows is a unique tennis and pickleball venue set in the rolling hills adjacent to Lake Chelan. With the recent addition of highly upscale lodging it is the ultimate destination.
Incredible location, very attentive and high energy staff and amazing food. The atmosphere is high energy or serene, it is what you make it. Really look forward to returning at least annually. The experience at the tennis camp was beyond expectations.
Harmony Meadows is a small town, 5 star, gorgeous mountain view location. It has to be one of the most beautiful places in the world. Nestled in wine country, you are surrounded by amazing vineyards and spectacular restaurants. With a small town, friendly vibe, you get world class facilities and staff!
My tennis team enjoyed the programs and instruction. Might have preferred some down time to just play together. Coaches should inquire at start on activity level interest to make sure classes are hard enough and fast paced.
Harmony Meadows is located in the small town of Manson in beautiful Lake Chelan in the midst of various wineries and agritrismos. It is truly as gorgeous facility with a farmhouse feel. The courts are world class quality and the owners themselves are out there everyday.
Can’t get any better setting than Harmony Meadows tucked up in a valley in picturesque Lake Chelan. The grounds and facilities are so well designed for racquet enthusiasts and non players as well. Just wish I could visit more often
Harmony Meadows is a stunning resort in an unbelievable setting. The courts are incredible as they are pristine and have this incredible cushioning— I have never experienced anything like it. The lodging is unmatched. It feels like a FourSeasons, yet rural and relaxed.
Accommodation is beyond luxurious, staff wonderful and food delicious. The Perfect girls getaway weekend if you love tennis or pickleball.
