The Landing at Index WA

8 sites · RVs, Tents16 acres · Index, WA

Welcome to The Landing at Index - located on the South Fork Skykomish River, in the western foothills of the Cascade Mountains, off of Highway 2. With 16 acres of beautiful, private woods and breathtaking views of Mt. Index, this is a wonderful getaway to kick back and relax after your day of adventures, or just to escape the city rush. The campsites are at the bottom of a long logging road so an SUV or AWD vehicle are preferable , especially during the wetter seasons. When the property was logged approximately 100 years ago they scooped out gravel from the river to make their roads in the area thus creating the back eddy pool along the beach. A rather peaceful setting, including the rushing sound of the river and the occasional whistle of a train. You will feel refreshed and rejuvenated after you stay at The Landing. Pets are welcome, there are outhouses at each campsite. Campfires are allowed (when burn bans are not in place).

Camp Keyser Forest Camp

8 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents5 acres · Swede Heaven, WA

Camp Keyser is a wooded 5 acre parcel in the mountains, near mountain loop highway - in the center of everything wonderful in the northern cascade mountains. We have one private cabin and 6 campsites. Tent campers will enjoy the lush landscape of a mature forest with sites along the (seasonal) Thirsty Creek. Nearby (3 minute walk), users can contemplate views of Whitehorse Mountain, Jumbo Mountain, Glacier Peak, and Whitechuck Mountain. This part of the Stillaguamish valley and the adjacent Mountain Loop Highway is known for a great selection of hiking trails, at all skill levels. It is perfect hub for all of your outdoor interests. The trailhead for the summit of Whitehorse Mountain is just a mile away, as is Old Mine Road trail (45 minute hike ending in 2 waterfalls). A 15-20 minute walk takes campers to a swimming hole in the cool Stillaguamish river for a dip or a paddle. Even closer is Whitehorse Regional Trail (great for biking, walking and horseback riding) built on the bed of the former BNSF railroad through the North Stillaguamish River Valley, spanning over 27 miles. The nearly level trail meanders through the valley, rewarding visitors with picturesque, landscape views of forests, farmland, streams and rivers, and mountain vistas. Sites have a generous fire pit and access to a Porta-Potty. For bathing I recommend cool dip in the Stillaguamish River. In season there is also fishing, snowshoeing, concerts at the blue grass festival grounds, a rodeo, and so much more.

DUE TO FAMILY NEEDS WE HAVE MOVED OUT OF STATE. THE PROPERTY IS UNDER PRIVATE ONWERSHIP AND THEY HAVE ELECTED TO KEEP IT PRIVATE AS OF JULY 14, 2023. Thank you to all who shared this wonderful piece of land and nature with us. We will miss it so very much! We profusely apologize to those whose bookings we are forced to cancel. After a summer spending time at various hip camps our family decided to make one of our own and share it with the hip camp community! It is a dream come true for our family. We started out with two sites completed in 2021 and added a third spot for the 2022 season. A fourth spot is in progress for the 2023 season! The entire property has access to a shared outhouse with an incinerating toilet! It is super important the instructions for it's use are ALWAYS followed. Check out our how to video here https://youtu.be/MNpf8RmxQUY The Shabin is the first site completed. It has been a labor of love and we are so pleased with the outcome. It boasts upcycled and repurposed materials whenever possible crafted by local tradespeople and some of our very own sweat equity! It sleeps 6-8 people including a loft space we ensured could handle adults as well as kids! The Shabin is full of windows making it feel like you’re still outside giving you views of the river and the mountains from every inch of it including windows in the loft. We made sure there was plenty of graveled and wood chipped spaces to enjoy the outdoors with your friends and family around the smokeless fire pit and created a path leading to the river as well as to the hunting and hiking lands at the back of the property. A tool shed contains tools, toys, and extras for our guests use. The Overlook is the second completed site. It is a tent site that overlooks a flowing creek and little waterfall year round. It is a mostly level 38' x 31' space nestled among the ferns and wood chipped for comfort and to reduce dust and mud. The Overlook comes stocked with a firepit, Tiki Torches, Tiki Oil, an 8 ft table, and optional camping chairs. The Romantic Retro Riverside Retreat is the newest addition. Positioned right on the Wallace river, the Retro Retreat is designed to be a romantic 60's inspired riverside getaway for Adults. From the pink Flamingos to the lovingly restored collectors Vintage 1966 Aristocrat Lo-Liner, this is a uniquely beautiful experience. We packed a lot into this awesome space from a toaster oven/coffee maker and matching Adirondack chairs next to a cozy firepit to a deluxe full size bed! For larger groups, the option to book the entire property for family gatherings or corporate or team building events is available!

A Taste of Whidbey

9 sites · Lodging, Tents3 acres · Clinton, WA

Take a break from the city and connect with nature by staying at our magical farm property located on the very south end of Whidbey Island, WA (12 minutes from the Clinton ferry dock). You can enjoy such activities as swinging in one of the many hammocks, getting goldfish pedicures, feeding some of the sweet animals, singing with the parrot, doing goat yoga or goagility (don't bother Googling it because it doesn't exist anywhere else), picking fresh fruits and vegetables for dinner you can prepare in our outdoor cabana kitchen, eating s'mores at one of the many firepits, visiting the beautiful flower gardens or simply enjoying the peace and quiet. Wildlife galore including bald and golden eagles, red tail hawks, deer, raccoons, heron and coyotes. Some nights, we have live music in the evening by one of South Whidbey's amazing bands and beer flowing from the taps built into the wall of the cabana. It is just me and an occasional worker operating the property so you may see us weeding, milking goats, feeding farm animals, or watering some of the many gardens. You are encouraged to participate in activities on the farm and children are welcome to do the same. We are 5 minutes from Bailey's Corner Store, Whidbey's best burger joint, which has great music various nights of the week, and Ogres Brewery which also has great entertainment and beer. Langley and Freeland are each 20 minutes away.

Camp Keyser Forest Camp

8 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents5 acres · Swede Heaven, WA

Camp Keyser is a wooded 5 acre parcel in the mountains, near mountain loop highway - in the center of everything wonderful in the northern cascade mountains. We have one private cabin and 6 campsites. Tent campers will enjoy the lush landscape of a mature forest with sites along the (seasonal) Thirsty Creek. Nearby (3 minute walk), users can contemplate views of Whitehorse Mountain, Jumbo Mountain, Glacier Peak, and Whitechuck Mountain. This part of the Stillaguamish valley and the adjacent Mountain Loop Highway is known for a great selection of hiking trails, at all skill levels. It is perfect hub for all of your outdoor interests. The trailhead for the summit of Whitehorse Mountain is just a mile away, as is Old Mine Road trail (45 minute hike ending in 2 waterfalls). A 15-20 minute walk takes campers to a swimming hole in the cool Stillaguamish river for a dip or a paddle. Even closer is Whitehorse Regional Trail (great for biking, walking and horseback riding) built on the bed of the former BNSF railroad through the North Stillaguamish River Valley, spanning over 27 miles. The nearly level trail meanders through the valley, rewarding visitors with picturesque, landscape views of forests, farmland, streams and rivers, and mountain vistas. Sites have a generous fire pit and access to a Porta-Potty. For bathing I recommend cool dip in the Stillaguamish River. In season there is also fishing, snowshoeing, concerts at the blue grass festival grounds, a rodeo, and so much more.
