Cute place to stay! It was clean and comfortable. I give it 4 stars because it is a little over priced.

Despite the out-dated room, the friendly front desk woman and the fact that it’s big-dog friendly made this place 10/10 for me! Our 2 dogs got “welcome baskets” and there was a fenced dog area on the property. I’d totally stay again and it felt like the owner(s) are building a special place out in Twisp.

It was a comfortable stay in the room and the hot tub was a nice surprise, however the walls are thin, so the guests next door we’re a bit noisy, including a barking dog at times and snoring at night.

Nice hotel/motel with everything you need. Not fancy/new, but everything was in good working condition and order; the a/c was very good. Small breakfast available in the morning. Jacuzzi was very clean. Fenced dog park on their property. They were in the middle of some remodeling at the time of our stay. Lovely staff

Good value

We came for a hockey tournament in Winthrop. The motel was adequate for my teen daughter and myself. Walls were very thin and it is definitely a little dated. The managers were kind and accommodating. We would come again!

Overall, Idle A While is a convenient place for travelers to the Northen Cascade National Park area for hikings and other activities when they have a pet and no other hotels available in Wintrop, as it's just a 20 away on Hwy 20 in Twisp. We stayed here and upon checking in got a gift for our dog which was a pleasant surprise. The hotel owner's wife even made some muffins for breakfast for the guests. Recommended!
