Casa Bogart - Winthrop, WA (View on Map)

Enjoy easy access to downtown Winthrop while lodging at Casa Bogart, located one block up “Pool Hall Hill” from the center of Town. Casa Bogart, originally built in the early 1900s, was the home for 40 years of former Winthrop Mayor Warren Badger and family and has recently been restored to its early 1900s charm. Visitors can enjoy sitting on the veranda, overlooking Winthrop and the surrounding hills and mountains. The fenced yard and garden are peaceful and gorgeous.

The house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and living room with a flat-screen smart TV and a Blu-ray DVD player. Two bedrooms have queen beds, and the third bedroom has a king bed. There is a 2-car carport with a 50-amp EV charging station and, of course, access to the decks and yard.

WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT WINTHROP

• Boardwalks and False-Front Architecture: When the North Cascades Highway (SR-20) opened in 1972, town leaders voted to style the commercial district like an 1890s frontier settlement complete with wooden boardwalks and hitching rails.

• Historic Landmarks: Visitors love stopping by spots like the historic Three Fingered Jack's Saloon and exploring local heritage at the Shafer Historical Museum.

World-Class Outdoor Recreation

• Nordic Skiing: Methow Trails maintains over 200 kilometers of groomed cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and fat-biking tracks, making it a premier winter destination (and home to unique local luge experiences).

• Summer & Fall Adventures: The warmer months bring hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing on the Methow River, and access to nearby alpine routes like Blue Lake Trail.

• Golden Larches: In late September and early October, the surrounding mountains light up with golden larch needles, drawing hikers and photographers from across the Pacific Northwest.

Food, Drink, and Local Flavor

• Craft Breweries & Bakeries: Socializing on river decks at spots like the Old Schoolhouse Brewery or grabbing pastries at Rocking Horse Bakery are classic Winthrop traditions.

• Treats and Arts: Strolling down Riverside Avenue to visit local art galleries, boutique shops, and Sheri's Sweet Shoppe gives the town a relaxed, welcoming pace.
