Pearrygin Lake State Park in
the Methow Valley features green lawns along 11,000 feet of shoreline on Pearrygin
Lake. The park is a popular destination for recreationists, who enjoy hiking, swimming,
fishing and boating. Those who simply want to relax on a hot summer day can enjoy
the shade of the mature weeping willows that grow in the park. Campers often get
visits from local wildlife, including marmots and muledeer who wander through the
campground, and those who like tourist activities can venture to nearby Winthrop,
a charming western-themed town.
Vacation House
Pearrygin Lake’s vacation house lies on the shores of scenic Pearrygin Lake, three
miles from Winthrop in north Central Washington’s Methow Valley. This overnight
rental has all the comforts of home, with a beautiful view of the lake and majestic
Gardner Mountain in the region’s North Cascade Mountains.
The cottage is ADA accessible and is very close to the swim beach, boat launch,
picnic area and camp store. It is close walking distance to the campground for family
or friends who are camping or staying in an RV.
The building originally was constructed and located in Twisp as the first office
for the Lloyd Logging Corporation. It was moved in the 1970s to its current location
at Derry's Resort and served as housing for resort staff. Derry's Resort was purchased
in late 2004 by Washington State Parks, and the cottage was renovated during the
winter of 2005-06, opening for business in time for the 2006 Memorial Day weekend.
