**We strive to provide the best internet service we can get here in the very rural Methow Valley.

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.

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

Great
Great stay in winthrop, the house was great and my kids had a great time.
Very clean and well equipped kitchen. Great location to North Cascades, and the drive to North Cascades was beautiful.
Perfect house for an extended family.
Renting was easy - owners were very accommodating and responsive.
The unit was very clean and welcoming. It was very spacious for my husband, myself, and our adult daughter. We all could have our own space. The back porch was great -a grill and plenty of seating. Location was great-close to Winthrop and the National Park. Grocery 5 minutes away. The owners were very nice. We can’t wait to return.
Overall we had a nice stay at this property. Unfortunately when we arrived wet towels were left in the washing machine and it did stink up the laundry area some. There were a lot of dead bugs and could have used a better vacuum. We couldn't fine any dish towels because they were left in the dryer for us to fold. They had just power washed the condo as well and none of the back patio furniture was replaced. We also had to ask the man power washing next door to come back and clean off the back porch as it was filthy. All in all, with a few things being missed the location of this property and space was really nice. When we vacated the property, we had left some earrings, and the cleaning crew went out of their way to look hard for them. They ended up finding them and we are very appreciative. I think they property could use a little updating, such as, new carpet, bedding, curtains (black out). Again, we can look past those issues and focus on the great time we had with family and the surrounding areas while staying at this condo.
We loved the VRBO. It was roomy and a lovely property. We spent time relaxing on the deck and taking walks around the area and in town. The internet was a little finicky sometimes but overall it was a great get away.
We loved our stay here during a family hiking trip to Methow Valley and the North Cascades. The hosts went above and beyond making us feel welcome and the home was very clean and inviting. Would definitely stay here again if we're coming back to the area!
It was nice because the house is very close to town but far enough away that you don’t have to deal with crowds. One thing I would note is that there were a lot of lights burnt out. That’s easily remedied though.
