Winthrop is a touristy spot so staying at Methow River Lodge, being just a bit outside of the main part of town, was quiet and quaint. The staff was knowledgeable and kind.

Staff fighting, rooms were dirty. Sheets inside out, fridge dirty and sticky, dead bugs and so much more! I have stayed here in the past when previous owners where still there and it was always clean. Unfortunately it is not anymore. I took pictures for front desk and was able to get a refund.

We enjoyed our stay at the Lodge. The room overlooked the river with a small balcony where we could enjoy the cool mornings. At temps around 97 in the afternoon, the air conditioner worked well. The staff was particularly friendly and the rooms were clean. The lodge is about .5 miles from the center of Winthrop - made an easier walk by the pedestrian bridge.

This is a great place to find some rest and peace right along the river. When we got there the first thing my kids did was go straight through the room to the chairs and hammock in the grass facing the river. Such a calming natural sound. We watched deer and turkeys come down to the water to drink. Room was clean, beds were comfortable, keurig coffee maker in the room. Nice easy walk into town across the pedestrian bridge. Winthrop ice rink almost shares the parking lot so be sure to check their schedule to see what the nights activities are for that day.

This is a great hotel about a three minute walk from Main Street Winthrop where every room has a balcony overlooking the river. There is also a trail into the hills right next tothe parking lot. The room was huge with very comfortable beds and refrigerators that actually got cold (unlike so many in other hotels). We watched a deer and her fawns from our balcony. Very nice atmosphere and the staff were super friendly! I would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful setting on the river. Decent sized room. Plenty of parking. Chad was very helpful at checkin. Tiny bathgroom. Squishy bed with hard pillows. Carpet had not been vacuumed. "Breakfast" was very sparse. Online checkin was not working.

property is close to river and has a back yard and walk along the river is nice. it's bit old property, in room not enough counter space put stuff on and table is sticky, everything ticks to it when you put it on. breakfast is open supper late 9-11 which most time people need to go out early.

Why does the continental breakfast start so late (9 am)? If this were my business, I would have this amenity available by 7 am. This creates the appearance of a lazy owner that isn't really concerned about the customer experience. There are no tissue boxes (Kleenex) in the room. There is clearly a plumbing leak above the shower head as the ceiling is wet/rotting and showing mold/mildew on the drywall. This could possibly be subjecting your clients to serious health problems and should be addressed immediately. The false ceiling containingthe vanity ight fixture should be raised 6"-8" higher. I'm an 6 feet tall which is average and I have to bend down to use the vanity mirror. Housekeeping should vacuum under the couch every day. There was six months worth of crumbs, dirt, and dead bugs under the couch in our room.

Thank you Mark for staying with us. The lodge truly appreciates all of its guests but we do have to keep in mind the hours of multiple functions within the hotel and the staffing arrangements we have. We hope sometime in the future to offer an earlier breakfast but for the moment are doing the best we can to provide our guests a small hot breakfast. We appreciate guests letting us know of issues during their stay so we have the ability to fix it. Hopefully future stays in the valley are more comfortable for you.

Easy communication with staff about my after-hours arrival time. All I had to do was calling and notifying about the arrival time, and the reception air immediately sent me a text about the room access code. The hotel location is ideal because it’s tucked away from the busy downtown area. I’ve seen other hotels around downtown, and I did not like the hotel entrance doors facing the path walks, which do not give me the privacy vibes. I’m sure they’re great hotels for they’re right there in town, but you can easy drive or literally walk across the bridge into town, which took me like 1 min of driving or 5 mins of walking. The room is clean with enough amenities to keep me comfortable during my weekend stay. And yes, I could find the hotel by just inputting the address onto my phone Google maps or Apple Maps. I will definitely come back again! It was a fun weekend getaway for the family! PS: there’s no elevator to go upstairs for this hotel. It is your traditional up and down the stairs, so if you or someone need special accommodations, you’d need to request ahead of time by calling the hotel directly (my best recommendation) to request to have your hotel room on the ground for easy access. Oh yeah, they have cabins on property! If you travel with larger group of people, consider booking their cabins!

The property is excellent, right next to the river. Lots of dear around the property. The rooms are quiet except you can hear the upstairs neighbors. The room was clean except for the floors. My feet and socks were brown after walking on them. Otherwise it was great and I would definitely return. Easy check in/out, breakfast served 9-11am. Nice outdoor patio for each room. Internet was very slow.

A Perfect Trip!
We throughly enjoyed our girl’s XC getaway to Winthrop and our stay at the Methow River Lodge and cabins! The room was clean, well laid out and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We were pleasantly surprised by the basic breakfast items as they supplemented our own. The location was great for close-to-town XC skiing and walking into town. Wifi was a weak, but better in the lobby.

Property is expensive and doesn’t offer a pool or a hot tub or sauna which cheaper properties in the area do offer. I’m not sure what the additional expense is for… they even skipped house keeping (I specifically asked for a room refresh and they ignored or forgot).

Although the room seemed clean at first glance, there was a lot of dust between beds, under the sink and on the bottom shelf of night stands, also the big cabinet not wiped in a while. We didn't use housecleaning for the 6 nights, just got new towels as needed ( 3 nights no hot water ) cleaning stuff and front desk staff had no masks when around lodge guests. Breakfast was a nice variety ( mostly carbs) several cereals, bagels, milk, sweetened yogurts, fruits. Location is great and rooms pleasant .

Easy access to town and the ski trail, with a great view. Clean, quiet, and very friendly. Limited restaurant options, but that’s Winthrop! Be sure to bring some food with you. There is a small fridge and microwave and kerige for hot drinks. Fair price for the region. It was perfect for our skiing family. Enjoy!
