Starry Night Retreat-Just a block above Winthrop!

A warm and welcoming gem hidden in the heart of Winthrop, Starry Night Retreat is the ideal place for family and friends to experience the starry nights and sunny days of the Methow Valley. Dogs are welcome(limit 2) The three-bedroom house has been newly renovated and is well appointed with luxury bedding and towels, heated mattress pads, warm throws, and a well-stocked kitchen. A modern, black and white Scandinavian theme, brightened by colorful pieces of art, runs throughout the one-level house. An open floor plan includes a living room with a gas fireplace, a dining area with seating for 6, and a fully-equipped kitchen with an adjacent ¾ bath. Next to the living room is a cozy library and smart TV. Down the hall are three spacious bedrooms — two with queen beds, the third with a king bed. All are sparkling clean and inviting.
