More InfoAn urban oasis surrounded by outdoor paradise. With lakes, parks, golf courses, and a vast nature preserve in proximity to the state capital and Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Lacey finds a balance between outdoors attractions and the amenities of a city with a young and active workforce, not to mention the student body at St. Martin’s University and South Puget Sound Community College.
Originally called Woodland, after the Wood family who settled here in 1853, Lacey became a logging center and a pioneer of beer. The founding family started the first brewery in what became Washington state, which reportedly served an expensive gourmet cream lager.
Staying true to its past, today Lacey’s burgeoning Producer’s District has locally created beer and wine on tap. Pair that with an exciting food scene, namely, the growing Depot District, a designated food truck space that has proven popular with Lacey’s locals.
If you’re up for an epicurean adventure, hop in the car—or on a bike—and set off on the Thurston Bountiful Byway, a 60-mile journey of eats and sips around Thurston County.
But before you hit up Lacey’s food and drink scene, work up an appetite exploring Lacey’s great outdoors!
