About

Pearrygin Lake is a 1,182-acre state park in northeastern Washington, about 2 miles from the town of Winthrop. The state park agency manages the land, and the park holds one fishing or paddling spot within its boundaries. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Winthrop show July and August highs around 86°F with lows near 50°F, while September cools to highs in the upper 70s. Several trails start close by. The Rex Derr Trail is about half a mile away, and the Methow Community Trail from Winthrop to Powers Plunge is roughly 2.6 miles off. For more time on the water, Beaver Creek offers canoeing about 7 miles away, and Buck Lake Campground sits about 9 miles from the park.
