You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Family Friendly Log House, right on the Methow Valley Ski Trail

Please visit our beautiful log home that sits right on Methow Community Ski Trail, the longest cross country ski trail in America. Trail is stunning both in the winter and in the summer when it becomes a kids friendly biking trail. Situated on a scenic 6 mile drive on a paved road from the western themed town of Winthrop that has supermarkets, ice rink, restaurants etc. Our log cabin sits on a private community of 40 acres, only 50 yards from the Methow river. Access road is plowed for year round access. Hot tub is open in the winter, outside pool in the summer.

Each of the two rooms sleeps 3, 2 more
people can sleep on a queen sofa in the living room for a total of 8. Second floor room is connected to the living room, but also conveniently has it's own entrance from the outside.

Gas fire place, guitar, wi-fi, two smart LCD TVs, cell phone coverage (TMobile, Verizon,
AT&T), table games are all in the house for you to enjoy.
50 yards to Methow river with beautiful rock beaches and a large island where kids like to play.
Resort has a beach volleyball court, kids playground, horse shoe ring, table tennis,
picnic tables and large grassy areas to play in. All amenities are included in your rate.
Enjoy the silence, watch the local wildlife and wonder at the star filled sky in this paradise surrounded by meadows and aspen trees.

We purchased the Dancing Wolf in April 2015. We rebuilt the balcony, upgraded the bathrooms, insulated the floor and bought solid log furniture to match the house style. We have fallen in love with the area, and hope you will too.

Accommodation includes bed sheets, towels and full kitchen equipment.

Check in time is at 4PM, check out time is at 11AM.

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.

Wonderful, family friendly place to stay!
The duplex is clean and easy to maintain and use. The location on the property is super ideal! We hope to come back next year because it offers so much for our grandkids. The cabin is close to everything in the complex and worked great with our kiddos, plus the walk to the river was easy and fun. Highly recommend this cabin if you have mid-size kids. We liked having one bedroom upstairs, giving us some family space at night. The living room could use a comfy chair since we had 6 people but we used one of our own lawn chairs and it worked out fine. There was a burn ban so it was difficult to cook everything indoors, such as hamburgers, a non-stick fry pan would be welcomed for this type of situation. The kitchen is well stocked with spices and that was a very nice addition that we appreciated. For convenience only you might want to bring an extension cord. There are a few plugs and they aren't always placed where we wanted them to be. We didn't use one our whole week, so it really isn't a big deal, just a thought to make thing easier. I missed having my phone next to my bed but maybe this is what should happen during a vacation! We loved our time in the cabin.

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

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.

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.

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.

No internet, no communication
The biggest problem we had about this place was that internet wasn’t working when we showed up Friday for a 3 night stay. WiFi was listed on the booking, and the check in email advertised a regular and 5G network, but neither worked (the 5G was never available). Communication about this was also non-existent. We (1) messaged through VRBO, (2) texted the host, (3) emailed the host, and (4) texted the property manager. We never got a response about any of this. The heat situation was slow to get going (there’s wall units in the bedrooms and a gas stove downstairs). Like other reviews mention, there’s also lots of extra blankets around for extra heat. It wasn’t totally clear in the listing that this property is half a duplex, but otherwise the listing was accurate. The location was nice, near Winthrop and on the ski trail.

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.

Cabin is in a great location if you can find it. Use Google- do not rely on the directions in the confirmation email as they contain mistakes and don’t count on contacting the host as the phone number in the confirmation email is disconnected.

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.

This place is so charming. It is everything one could expect for a cabin in the woods. We are new to VRBO and pleasantly surprised by the experience at this place. I can still hear the leaves on the aspens clapping for us in the breeze.
