About River Run Inn
Methow River Views and Genuine Mountain Hospitality
Hospitality Starts Here on the Methow River
Located just a short 15-minute walk from historic downtown Winthrop, our property pairs frontier charm with serene river views.
Originally founded during the 1883 gold rush, Winthrop, WA, offers a rich Western heritage filled with boutique shopping, local art galleries, live music, and artisan dining.Nestled along the banks of the Methow River, River Run Inn & Cabins serves as your peaceful sanctuary—far enough to escape city stress, yet steps away from the heart of town.
Our Story: we love it here...
Mike and Penni traded the beaches of Hawaii for the mountains of the Methow Valley and quickly fell in love with the beauty, community, and Western spirit of Winthrop.
Mike's family has deep roots in the Pacific Northwest and Inland Northwest. His grandparents lived in Yakima, and his great-uncle, whom he was named after, served as the Chief of Police in Toppenish in the early 1940s. Mike spent many summers learning to fish the Yakima River and Rimrock Lake, beginning a lifelong love of the eastern side of the Cascade Mountains.
Penni discovered the beauty of the Pacific Northwest after decades of living on Maui and Kauai. As a rodeo mom, she appreciates the rugged landscapes and rich Western heritage of Okanogan County. Coming from a proud Hawaii rodeo family, she found Winthrop's authentic Western charm to be a natural fit.
Today, Mike and Penni are active members of both the Methow Valley Chamber of Commerce and Kiwanis and are grateful to call this special valley home.
At River Run Inn & Cabins, we're truly family-owned and operated. We feel blessed to share this beautiful property with our guests and bring a little Hawaiian aloha to every stay. When you visit, you're not just a guest, you're part of our family.
Come experience the beauty of the Methow Valley, Western hospitality, and the spirit of aloha. 🌲🤠🌺
