Winter in Winthrop

The property was fantastic! Clean, comfortable, and a great location. A perfect place to stay for our adventure group skiing in and around Washington Pass. The hot tub access was a big bonus! Would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing Stay

We had a lovely time at the dancing wolf. The set up was great and made for a relaxing time. The pool closure was disappointing, but it's a short walk to the river and we all had a great time playing there.

Peaceful get-away

We loved our stay in the Methow! The log home is well equipped for cooking, the beds are comfortable and we loved walking through the woods to the river. The pool was open and the hot tub was a welcomed spot after a day of hiking, exploring Winthrop, nearby Twisp and Sun Mountain.

Cozy Cabin Getaway

If you are looking for a cozy, homey cabin getaway, this is a good place for that. The place felt fairly secluded (even though it’s connected to a few other places) and had beautiful trails to walk/bike on nearby. It was cold when we arrived, but we were able to figure out the heating and felt very cozy next to the fireplace! It was a great place to hang in between our adventures. Thanks for the great stay!

Cozy Cabin in Winter Wonderland

This cabin and location have everything you need for an amazing winter holiday. Our family of four was very comfortable here and loved having the trail access nearby. The hot tub was a great way to end each day. There could be one more option for seating in the living toom. We spent our days skiing between Mazama and Winthrop and playing games in the cabin at night after making dinner.

Very enjoyable stay at Dancing Wolf cabin

We stayed for 1 week at dancing wolf cabin to x country ski and explore the methow valley. The cabin was clean, cozy and had lots of space for 4 adults and a baby. We loved that we could ski from the cabin as the x country trail was a 30 second walk away as was the hot tub for our post ski dip. The cabin is well stocked with all the little amenities that make for a comfortable stay. We will be coming back again to explore this wonderful area and look forward to staying in dancing wolf cabin once again!

Great location near Winthrop, WA and the North Cascades

Great location and house! Clean and cozy. Two minor issues. Several pans in kitchen were unusable due to burned or damaged bottoms. The directions were somewhat confusing and need to be simplified. Overall I would definitely stay again.

Just what we needed!

Perfect space for a family of 4 plus a dog! It was roomy, but still cozy. Only about 10-15 minutes from 'downtown' Winthrop. Even though there was not enough snow to ski the Community Trails, it was a great jumping off point for other adventures.

The property was very nice. Had everything we needed. Was very clean. The welcome information is outdated. The pool and hot tub codes and times are several years old. We had to contact management to be let in. Deer were everywhere on the property which was nice to look at.

Great setting, terrible beds

Well stocked kitchen, adequate bathrooms, beautiful snow shoeing right out the door but beds were horribly uncomfortable to where I slept on the floor the second night. For this reason the whole place felt over priced.

Sorry to hear that the beds didn't work for you. This was the only time someone complained about the beds. I think that bed preference is very subjective soft/hard. I had back issues for years, spend a lot of money on doctors and like the cabin mattress. Jiri

Very Satisfied!! will save for next year!

I Rented this cabin to compete in the Great Puckaroo Hockey Winthrop tournament and was blown away with the comfort of this cabin and its amenities. The gas fire place kept the main living space super comfortable and provided a perfect drying wall for all my winter gear. The Spa was great after a long day on the ice . and the trail to the river was awesome. The cabin is stocked with everything you need for your stay. see you again!

Enjoyable cabin

Very cleanly maintained and well stocked cabin. Stayed with a group of 7 and was pretty comfortable. The downstairs has a futon, so that allows for max capacity. Biggest complaint is no washer/dryer machine. Small issues with the heating system. Plenty of blankets available though. Good stay overall.

Family time

We enjoyed our stay at this location very quiet, and beautiful location, cabin had everything you needed(please purchase a large frying pan or electric skillet). It was hard to make a family dinner with two small frying pans were very comfortable except for the upstairs mattress needs to be replaced a few days later. Thank you for letting us stand your Unit

Older Features

A few negatives about this cabin; the stairs up to the cabin definitely need handrails for seniors like me; the kitchen could use newer cookware (rusty fry pan in cupboard); if you are a reader, the lighting is not adequate. Could use more seating in the living room. The property is beautiful, the grandkids loved the pool, watched deer feeding in the big field. Wish is had been closer to Winthrop.

Idyllic location at Wolf Creek

Although we initially had a little difficulty finding the unit (it was dark and the wolf statue was covered in snow), once we found it all was well. Very cozy and charming. The access to the MCT was phenomenal as was the hot tub.Regulating the heat was a little challenging, so we opted to turn everything down/off when we went out for the day. As well, the electric circuit was a bit touchy. Just running the dishwasher and the toaster caused intermittent brownouts (lights would turn off/power would go out and then it would resume). The house did comfortably sleep the five of us -- the queen bed upstairs mattress was very, very soft (we prefer mattresses on the firm side).Unfortunately I left one of my lobster gloves there -- hoping there's a way to get it mailed back to me!
