This is a dog-friendly, local Winthrop home right in town, just above the Old West boardwalk, one street up. This house was built in 1955 and retains that old mid-century charm. The upstairs bedrooms feature the ever-so-popular 50s knotty pine paneling. The living room is cozy with a coffered ceiling. The stairs are narrow and steep with a handrail. The kitchen has been modernized but still retains some of the feel of Grandma's house. Coffee lovers will enjoy the assortment of coffee equipment(regular, Aeropress, French press, coffee grinder)

The main floor has a shared living room with a Smart TV and a dining table. The kitchen is on the right, with a laundry area behind it and a passageway to the rear—chemically free dishes and utensils for the kids, along with a high chair for the little ones.

There is a larger queen bedroom with a Smart TV and full bath on the main floor. Upstairs are two dormer bedrooms, one with a Smart TV. There is also a stand-up desk in one of the bedrooms. Games and puzzles are available to enjoy with family and friends.

"Out back, through the back door, is a fenced backyard with lawn, a deck on the north side of the house with several tables for dining outside, a Weber gas BBQ, and outdoor games. There is a shed to hold bicycles (4-6 bikes, depending on size). An EV charger (Level 2 Emporia brand with J1772 connector) for those with electric vehicles.

INTERNET POLICY:
**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 beyond our control can occur; 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 the homeowner. Please note... our valley is very rural and getting service personnel to fix things promptly can be a challenge. We rent lodging, not office space.

Public internet is available at the Winthrop library, with enhanced internet speed (in the 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 heavy snowfall, unexpected technical issues, frozen pipes, and impassable roads/driveways. If it snows while you are here, you will have to wait for plow service, just like everyone else 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 and 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 than your stay, NO REFUNDS will be given.
