George's River House - Winthrop, WA (View on Map)
Sleeps 2-4, Max Occupancy: 6
Internet Access
No Pets
No SmokingIt is, as much, a house as a work of industrial art. The house is built around a large concrete water-way, which was originally part of the Winthrop water supply. That bunker is now the floor of an upper bedroom, as well as the walls of the living room and a second bedroom on the main floor. It is a hand-built, and handmade riverfront pleasure.
Located about 1/3 mile downstream of downtown Winthrop and its iconic old west boardwalk.... it is close, yet private. This is a "one of a kind experience" not to be passed over.
There are two bedrooms The first bedroom includes a queen bed and the second a queen and a bunk bed. The main-floor master has it's own bath, and outside entrance overlooking the river. Full kitchen, internet, unique wood stove, heated floors, patio with picnic table and small propane grill.If the bedroom to living space door is left open and a window open in dining area, it works quite well for cooling.And if you need a little more room, there is another wondrous house, for friends, called, River Nest. Check it out.

This place is fantastic. I booked it with a few friends for the Sun Mountain 25K, and I will definitely be back with my family. It is quiet and private, with access right to the river, and it is walkable to all the downtown Winthrop shops.
Everything was perfect as always, the pleasant and relaxing ambiance makes it a wonderful place to tune out the stresses of everyday life. Any stay at the River House is never long enough!
We loved the wood burning stove complete with supply of firewood. The kitchen was fully stocked and we really enjoyed the unique and beautiful furnishings and decorations.
Love the fireplace, the in-floor heat and the big shower. Upgrades needed to kitchen gear, towels, lighting.
The fireplace was very nice. Well stocked kitchen.
Unique and very cool yet cozy space. It was clean and the beds were comfortable. And the location can’t be beat- within a minute you can be standing alongside the river or ordering pizza (with gf options!). Even though this place is right next to a busy pizza spot and other cabins, the entire weekend was quiet and felt secluded. Definitely recommend.
Close to town and private. As others have mentioned, you are not sure when you first park. But the instructions are accurate and you quickly leave the parking lot behind to a quiet and comfortable setting. Upon arrival The key holder was jammed - it happens. The help was reasonably quick and the rest of the stay was great.
We loved the furniture in the dining/reading room, and bedroom. The kitchen is super well equipped. It’s such a lovely peaceful place.
We loved the many unique touches and handmade detailing at George’s River House. Can’t wait to return!
Loved everything about this place!!! The setting is great, right at the river and very quiet! The house has history and is very eclectic while being so warm and very comfortable! Everything you need! Master bedroom be is really comfortable and there is a small deck with table right over the river, perfect for happy hour!!!!
This is our 4th or 5th time back to George’s River House. It continues to be a perfect place for us to get away to. The house is well supplied with everything we needed. We were very comfortable!
