With part of their mission and service philosophy to employ locally and support area artisans, Sun Mountain 
Lodge is playing a vital role in helping the local economy of the Methow Valley – particularly the local crafts
people and artists – a group generally hard hit during the current economic downturn. Local artisans are 
responsible for most of the furnishings in the guestrooms at Sun Mountain Lodge with 
spectacular Northwest signature style. Two furniture makers have crafted beds, armchairs and other furniture 
bringing the great outdoors inside. The local blacksmith from Winthrop created curtain rails, towel bars and 
door handles as fanciful decorative elements. Fine fabric is pure magic to a local seamstress from Twisp who has 
created duvet covers and throw pillows like works of art. The walls have been sponged and fresco-painted by a 
local painter and the local artwork (originally commissioned by the Lodge at the time of its grand opening) hangs on the walls.

Northwest atmosphere and dining at its finest. From naturally grown herbs and vegetables right off the Sunny M Farm to tenderloin of Washington state beef topped off with mushrooms foraged from the Cascade Mountains, the dining experience at Sun Mountain Lodge promises to delight the palette. The Lodgepresents award-winning chefs, hearty and sophisticated dining, and a boisterous wine list including a 5,000 bottle cellar, which features many award-winning Northwest wines – some of which can only be found at the Resort. Opened in 1998, the wine cellar was designed to mirror the classic cave cellars of Europe and features stone and ironwork by local craftsmen. A large cherry wood dining table, in the center of the cellar, seats up to 14 guests for special occasion dining.
