The Space:

Located in the Timberline Meadows community, Grey Moose provides ski-in/ski-out access to the Methow Trails system, just a short walk from the house. This 1,750 sq. ft. home features three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The living room is centered around a gas fireplace, with a cozy sofa and flat-screen TV (with satellite and DVD player). Two sliding glass doors open to a spacious deck with a picnic table, ideal for outdoor meals. Covered porches at the front of the house and off the living room provide additional spots to enjoy the peaceful surroundings.



The fully equipped kitchen boasts granite floors and countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar with seating for four. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining room is framed by large windows on three sides, that overlook the meadow and aspens.



The main-floor primary bedroom has a king bed and an adjoining bath with a walk-in shower. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms, each with a queen bed and picture windows, share a second bathroom with a tub/shower combo. A laundry room with a washer and dryer adds convenience.



Grey Moose comfortably accommodates up to six guests, offering a tranquil retreat while keeping you close to the Methow Valley’s natural beauty and outdoor activities.



The Neighborhood:

The Timberline Meadows development, located in the Upper Methow Valley, is home to several nightly rentals, as well as some private homes. The homes are all nestled in the trees at the edge of the National Forest. The wintertime ‘John’s Way’ cross country ski, snowshoe and fat bike trails connects Timberline Meadows to Mazama and the Upper Methow trail system (permits required in winter), making this a great ski-in / ski-out location, away from the bustle of the Mazama trailhead but close enough to ski down to the store.



The Mazama Store, with its great bakery and ‘a little bit of everything good’ is just a 5 minute drive or 10 minute bike ride from the cabin, and around 20 minutes by ski (depending how fast you slide and glide). Mountain bike and ski rentals are also available in Mazama.



Other local attractions include the Loup Loup Ski Bowl, Winthrop Rink (named one of the 10 best ice rinks in the West by Sunset Magazine and one of the only NHL-sized refrigerated rinks in the country – open for Pickleball and inline skating in the summer), Early Winters Outfitters which features horseback riding is just at the Timberline Meadows turnoff from Highway 20. North Cascades National Park is just west on Highway 20, part of the Cascade Loop. And of course, the Methow Valley is home to the largest cross-country ski trail network in North America with great skiing and abundant sunshine!



Getting Around:

Getting here: May to November, from Seattle and the westside, you can drive over highway 20 and Washington Pass (check WSDOT for closures). Alternate, and winter routes from Seattle are via I90, Snoqualmie Pass and Blewett Pass, or highway 2 over Stevens Pass (check WSDOT for driving conditions). Combine these routes and you have the scenic Cascade Loop.



Getting around: It’s a 20 minute drive to the Cutthroat Lake trailhead, 21 minutes to Washington Pass and 27 minutes to Maple Pass trailhead, making this a great hiking base-camp for exploring the North Cascades and for beating the crowds to the trailhead during larch season.



The old west town of Winthrop is 12 1/2 miles and around 15 minutes drive down valley, with its great shopping, bakery and dining establishments; the Shafer Museum is also worth a visit to learn about the local history. Winthrop has a fun ice skating rink and is the jumping off point for Methow Rafting’s raft and float tubing on the Methow River. Winthrop’s annual calendar of events includes the Rhythm and Blues Festival, Vintage Car Rally, Memorial Day Rodeo, and Christmas At The End Of The Road (check the town’s website for details).
