About

Pearrygin Lake State Park encompasses 1,186 acres in the scenic Methow Valley near Winthrop, Washington. The park wraps around Pearrygin Lake with 11,000 feet of waterfront, providing extensive opportunities for water recreation including swimming, fishing, and boating. A boat launch with dock opens the first Friday of April, weather dependent. The 3.1-mile Rex Derr Trail offers hiking through shrub-steppe terrain with mountain views. The campground features a mix of standard and utility sites, with amenities including accessible restrooms, showers, drinking water, fire pits, and a dump station. Campfire programs run Tuesday and Thursday evenings from mid-June through Labor Day when staffing allows. Peak camping season runs from April through October, with the campground closed November 1 through March 31. Winter transforms the park into a destination for fat biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing, with plowed parking areas and maintained roads. The park remains open for day use year-round from 6:30 a.m. to dusk, offering snow play and winter activities against the backdrop of the North Cascades.
