Historic Twisp Cottage - Mountain & River View!

Framed by mountain views, this idyllic Washington vacation rental cottage is the perfect getaway for your party of 2, with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom. With a lovely garden and wildlife, ducks, and chickens roaming the secluded property, this charming studio cottage is walking distance from downtown Twisp. Grab a snack at the farmers market before going hiking or skiing and finish up with dinner in town. At the end of the day relax by the property's fire pit and watch the sunset over the river!

-- THE PROPERTY --

Bedroom: Queen Bed | Living Room: Full Pullout Sofa

Feel at home the second you walk through the red front door of this cozy cottage nestled in the Washington woods. The 110-year-old property has fruit trees and a vibrant garden, surrounded by breathtaking mountain views and the soothing sounds of rushing water from the river.

After checking out the lovely property, sink into the comfy blue pullout sofa and prop up your feet while catching up on your favorite show on the flat-screen cable TV. Use the free wireless internet to look up places to go hiking or skiing tomorrow, with miles and miles of trails you'll have endless choices!

You’ll love the attention to detail with decorations in the well-equipped kitchen. Unwind at after a day of hiking and enjoy a home-cooked meal at the quaint dining table set for 2!

After dinner, take a stroll by the river and watch the sunset over the mountains or sit by the firepit and enjoy your favorite beverage while roasting a few marshmallows under the stars.

Sleep soundly in the bedroom or on the pullout sofa, and awake refreshed for another beautiful day in Twisp!

-- THE LOCATION --

Nestled in the heart of Methow Valley, the charming town of Twisp is marked by the convergence of the Methow and Twisp rivers. This charming town is a year-round vacation spot with outdoor activities for every season.

Sun Mountain Lodge is only 20 minutes from the property where you can ski your heart out. If you've been wanting to try your hand at cross-country skiing, now is your chance with hundreds of miles of backcountry just 5 miles from the home. Don't miss the Loup Loup Ski Bowl for skiing and snowboarding, just 15 minutes away!

Warmer months can be filled mountain biking, horseback riding, and hiking through seemingly endless miles of trails through Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest and North Cascades National Park. Go backpacking, rock climbing, and more! You can go kayaking, fishing, and rafting along the Methow and Twisp Rivers.

With downtown Twisp within walking distance, you’ll be able to stroll through town to check out the local galleries before stopping at the farmer’s market for fresh produce. Be sure to include the Confluence Gallery and Art Center in your tour!

Finish a day of exploring the mountains, skiing the countryside, or viewing local art with a delightful dinner at one of the many local Twisp restaurants.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is such a cute little cottage. It was very clean and comfortable...a perfect place to come "home" to in the evenings to rest and hang out after hiking in the North Cascades for the day. It has a full kitchen, which is important to us since we prefer to cook our own meals. The cottage is on the owner's property so her house is nearby. She was available and responded quickly to my texts. If you're looking for amenities like pool, hot tub, fitness room, you won't find them here. There's so much to do in the area, you won't need them. We really enjoyed our stay.

Unsafe for all
Electrical/heating was very unsafe. Touch a space heater and get burned. Multiple plug ins in one plug in spot that’s clearly not meant for that capacity for electrical safety. Giant stack of garbage that’s fully visual driving up and walking around the property. Very distasteful Halloween decorations. “Walk” to the river is a joke. It’s not a short or quick walk. Not sure where the Mountain View and river view come into play either.

Disappointed!
Our hostess Monica was very helpful with answering our questions before our arrival. She was quick to rectify a few problems we encountered on the first day, however, she was unavailable when we tried to reach her one afternoon. She did not respond until the next morning which as too late. In our opinion she does not have the ability to provide a safe and peaceful environment for guests. This VRBO should be evaluated for safety. We have a lengthy list of mishaps that kept popping up during our entire four day stay: On the first evening in the middle of the night a large piece of art painted on a on a heavy board slid off the wall and nearly hit my roommate in the head while sleeping. We discovered the picture was attached to the textured wall with two sided tape. The following day another picture was found on the floor having been attached in the same way. The stove burners had not been cleaned and caught on fire. Stored bed linens reeked of cedar and mothballs Refrigerator was extremely noisy thru night, unusual noises, grinding, humming and squeaking Toaster did not work (hostess replaced immediately) Kitchen was not adequately cleaned; counters, some dishes, pans, utensils were sticky and dirty. Almost all dishware provided could not be used in a microwave making this appliance useless Only one dishtowel was provided to a four day stay There were two salt shakers, however, they were both empty Much of the furniture was wobbly or broken, sleeper sofa foot was not connected, table too rickety to put a lamp on Frequently toilet would not completely flush, the lever had to be held down for 30 plus seconds for the bowl to empty completely but this did not always work either Only one bath towel supplied for each guest for a four night stay (clean towels should be available when there is no laundry) Bathroom sink taps were opposite: Hot on right, cold on left Typical bathroom supplies such as soap, shampoo, hairdryer were not supplied Porch of cottage was filthy and unswept covered in dirt and leaves (not a welcome place to sit or relax) Stray cats and dogs wandering in yard and trying to get into cottage every time the door was opened Pathway from driveway was pea gravel which lodged inside suitcase wheels and ruined them Yard was overloaded with Halloween 'decorations' that were not appropriate: severed hands, hanging dead brides, skeletons on all the lawnchairs (one on a bicycle) and ghosts that moaned all night.

quiet refuge
A quiet mountainside cottage with views of peaks from the shaded garden, and hiking trails, rock-climbing areas, good bakeries, a health-food store and coffee shops not far away. Artistic and quirky, like the town of Twisp itself. I would have happily stayed much longer, if I'd had more time off work.

Disappointed
Starting with the directions to the property- terrible- no answer when calling owner. No covered parking as listed, wi-fi did not connect. “Carport” stacked with rubbish to the top. Fire pit filled with junk. Inside accommodations were acceptable, but outside terrible. Pictures online are very deceiving.

Comfortable property, nice owner
The owner was very nice, property was comfortable enough. Not as private I would have hoped for, could have used curtains on all the windows.

We’d go back in a heartbeat❤️
The cottage is perfect for two. The owner, Monica, lives on the property and is very accommodating. If there are any issues she resolves them right away. Your privacy is important to her although we thoroughly enjoyed her company! The cottage is comfy and a short walk to amenities which we appreciated. It’s quiet and peaceful. Hiking trails are everywhere and there’s some great entertainment in Twisp and nearby Winthrop to check out as well! (Totally enjoyed wine tasting at the local Glover Street Market) We’d go back in a heartbeat!

Cozy Cottage
My husband and I enjoyed our short stay at this wonderful cozy cottage. We were married on 08/18/18 and this was a "mini" honeymoon. The cottage was clean, comfortable, and felt like a home away from home. The setting was beautiful...it felt like you were out in the country! The host were very friendly and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you Monica!

Great home base for Methow Valley adventures
Very nice property tucked away in small town Twisp. We enjoyed our stay there after spending our days in Chelan Lake, the North Cascades and Methow Valley. Cosy and elegant little cabin on a beautiful property.
