INTERNET POLICY..PLEASE NOTE:
**We strive to provide the best internet service we can get here in the very rural Methow Valley. Internet speeds vary throughout the valley and outages or tech issues can occur that we have no control over, and for these reasons NO REFUNDS are given if the internet is problematic. We also do not guarantee that the internet will meet your work/school needs. Should you have an issue with internet service, please send us a message through VRBO describing the problem. We will then contact you to troubleshoot. If the issue is not resolved, we will then contact the internet provider, and/or homeowner. Please note... our valley is very rural and getting service personnel to fix things in a timely manner can be a challenge. We rent lodging, not office space.
Public internet is available at the Winthrop library with enhanced internet speed (parking lot or inside the library). Alternatively, for a fee you can go to the Dropzone in downtown Winthrop. Thank you for your understanding!
IMPORTANT WINTER INFORMATION :
**Should you travel to the Methow during the winter months it is important to understand that you must be prepared for winter driving(keep chains, shovel...in the car) and all the inconveniences it causes you and the community you are visiting. The weather can be extreme with large snowfalls, unexpected technical issues, frozen pipes, impassable roads/driveways). If it snows while here you will have to wait for plow service just like every other person in the valley. There are a limited number of plow companies and Methow Reservations nor the owners of the house are in control of the plow company schedules. They have many different contracts and many miles of roads, driveways...to plow. If a plow person or a snow shoveler shows up to clear any area around the house, please do not argue with them or turn them away. Move your vehicles if asked. Your cooperation and patience are required especially after any significant snow accumulation. Should you get stuck you can call Classic Towing in Twisp, WA
**Propane Fireplace--should there be tech issues or the propane fireplace upon your arrival please send a message through Airbnb. Methow Reservations and the owner will try to troubleshoot and remedy the problem. If the problem requires a part or there is an issue with the propane company that may take longer that your stay, NO REFUNDS will be given.
Lovely cabin. Super clean. Great for hiking.
My parents stayed here and I got to see if first hand. They went on and on about how nice it was and I have to agree. Very clean, easy parking, super comfy bed, quiet. Communication with the property manager was great. I had no problem extending our stay by one day (for extra charge of course). Will definitely book again.
This is a very comfortable loft apartment. The kitchen is well equipt. There are a variety of heat sources so it's easy to keep it as warm as you need. We would've liked window covering on a few of the windows but not a deal breaker.
We stayed here for 3 nights while hiking Maple Pass Loop and Cutthroat Pass. This was our favorite lodging during our 2 1/2 week trip. The location was great, the bed was comfortable and the shower had plenty of hot water. The kitchen was stocked with spices, coffee, a sugar bowl and olive oil. They also had large gel packs in the freezer that work great for our cooler. They warned of potential internet problems but it worked fine for us. They also warned not to depend on GPS to find them but Google Maps matched their own directions.
Great stay! Perfect for getting out on the Mazama Nordic trails. We stayed nice and warm- boot dryers and clothing dryer rack are an awesome perk! Also, of all the rentals we have stayed in this one has one of the nicer/fully outfitted kitchens, which we really appreciated. We found everything we needed and more- there are thoughtful touches throughout. It was nice and quiet at night. Only downside is that the wi-fi is pretty terrible. We got kicked off every 2-3 minutes and sometimes couldn’t get back on or find the network unless standing in the *perfect* spot in the loft. Since there is no cell service either (t-mobile) we struggled trying to get in touch with friends staying in another house in the valley. It would be great if there was at least a landline for emergencies and local calls. Or just get the unit it’s own WiFi. The loft seems to be using the WiFi from the house next door so it’s pretty unreliable. But if you want to unplug this is the place!
Had a cozy and peaceful stay. Property was very clean and very well appointed in the kitchen and with respect to linens. Comfy bed. Great heating/climate controlled system. Helpful extras (heated boot rack and clothes rack) were a nice touch. Close to all the cross-country trail action in Mazama (St John's Loop trail is adjacent to the rental property). A good value and look forward to return next snow adventure!
This is our second time to stay at this property because we love it so much. Perfect for two and a great location!
It was wonderful!
We loved our stay here while visiting North Cascades NP! It is really the perfect location. The loft was super cozy and peaceful. And the kitchen was well equipped for us to cook our own meals. We wished we could have stayed longer! Highly recommend!
Very hot in the loft. Pilot light on the heater should be turned off in the summer. It emits too much heat. A window air condition would help.
