Arlington, WA · 5 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Nestled near Arlington, our 75-acre property spans both new and old forest, featuring a salmon-filled creek and a large beaver pond—all set against the dramatic backdrop of a 1,200-foot sheer rocky cliff crowned with old-growth trees. Since its purchase in 1958 as a family retreat, this land has grown into much more than a getaway. It has become a place for relaxation, adventure, and connection with nature—a private forest for family and friends to enjoy. Over the years, the family has adopted forest stewardship and sustainable timber harvesting practices, while also developing campsites, trails, hosting rock concerts, and even producing wine. What began as a simple escape has evolved into something extraordinary: a tree farm that successfully balances nearly every goal a forest landowner could imagine—timber production, wildlife habitat, natural beauty, recreation, and forest resilience. Valhalla embodies all of this with harmony. We think you will feel the unusual vibe.

Waterfall Sanctuary is a hidden gem on 17 acres, bordered on two sides by the Gifford Pinchot N F. In the heart of the Columbia River Gorge just outside Carson, Washington. It's home to a mini-farm with goats, ducks, & chickens. Deer & elk walk through the property on a fairly regular basis depending on the season, it's less than a mile walk (or short drive) to the Wind River with a swimming hole, & a short distance further to the Pacific Crest Trail.
A 20-minute drive & you're at the Columbia River. An hour to the West is Portland if you are in the mood for some city life, & 35 minutes east is Hood River, a gorgeous old town with tons of charm. The closest town, Stevenson, Washington is home to shops, local restaurants, & access to the Columbia River.
Also in close proximity are amazing waterfalls, trails, & National Forest roads that are close by & well maintained. No matter the season there is something to do a short distance from the property.

Shaped by behemoth glaciers that carved out the land over 10,000 years ago, Colville National Forest is a gorgeous treasure spanning 1.1 million acres (props to President Theodore Roosevelt for saving it). The lands include a number of geographic features including the Kettle River, upper reach of the Columbia River and the Selkirk mountain range, which is considered to be at the foothills of the Rockies.
Residents (including several Native American tribes) and visitors enjoy camping, nearly 500 miles of hiking trails, mountain biking, lakes, rivers and some too legit to quit wildlife including grizzly bears, cougars, bald eagles and the last remaining herd of caribou in the US. That was almost starting to sound like an indie music festival lineup! Did we mention it’s an inspiring place? So much so that close to a million smackeroos was recently rewarded for continued restoration projects.

Swede Heaven, WA · 5 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
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.

This property is supposedly one of the first homesteads in Jordan Road.
This information is based on stories from some old timers my husband had
spoken to in the past when he bought this property in 2002. The owner back in the old days sold off parcels and parcels of lands back then.
The property is all fenced in, a place where your fur buddy can run free so you don't have to worry of the baby getting lost!
Hopefully you'll get a visit from a deer and hear the hooting of the owl. :)
The surroundings are peaceful and private, you will enjoy exploring the trails all around the 9 acres out of 12 we are sharing.
Stroll down the hill to listen to the sounds of the creek and fish ladder.
Booking the cabins.. fyi.. they're off grid - NO electricity, you Bring your Water, but I provide some lanterns for lighting.
Our campground cabins are about 4.9 miles from the 'Granite Falls Fish Ladder'. Visit this beauty at Mountain Loop Highway if you fancy a little hike.
Drive around 7 miles to the 'Lime Kiln Trailhead. The trail is full of amazing views and history.
Our place is only about 45 minutes from Seattle. Why not pack your tent and sleeping bags then drive here after work, then leave in the morning.
Leave your worries behind.. enjoy nature.

We loved the peaceful and relaxing setting of the cabin site. The cabin was very sweet and comfortable. We enjoyed cooking the salmon we purchased, by the campfire. The outdoor table with canopy was great for shade as well as setting up our camp stove. The trails through the forest and fields were well kept, and much enjoyed. The whole property appears to be maintained with much love and care.

This has become the go to spot for me and my family when we want to get away, relax, and enjoy a beautiful campsite in peace. Our two cats are able to safely roam around and absolutely love hunting for mice and other little critters while we’re there.
Dave has always been a great host and is quick to help with anything that comes up during our stay. One of our favorite parts is walking the many hiking trails throughout the wilderness of Valhalla Tree Farm. Every time we come back, it feels like the property has grown even more, with new paths and improvements continuing to take shape.
Highly recommend! We sure will be going year after year.

I love the site , middle of the tree far enough from other campers and the service was amazing we had a cabin and a tent, already installed when we arrived, made camping so much easier, as I came alone with 4 kiddos. Teens in the tents and youngers with me in the cabin. The cover barbecue area was great, not to find everything wet in the morning. Fire pit area is cute . The site is well maintained, cabin super clean and warm thanks to a gas heater, cabin well maintained carbon monoxide detector . I ordered in advance the wood, but didn’t have enough in the morning, I texted at 8am and got wood delivered within 10min amazing! Dog could run free , kids could make noise. Definitely will come back.

Weekend Trip to Index Riverside Camp
The Little Red Cabin was exactly the kind of getaway we were hoping for. Yes rustic, but honestly, that’s part of what makes it so special. Sitting around the fire pit, hearing the river nearby, cooking outside, and unplugging for a couple days felt like a real reset.
The setting is beautiful. Index already feels tucked away in the mountains, but this cabin sits right near the river where you can stand on the bank and look directly down at the water rushing by. The smooth river rocks, dense forest, mountain views, and nearby trails make it feel peaceful and far removed from everyday life.
Everything was thoughtfully set up. Plenty of firewood, a nice patio and picnic area, grill, coffee for the coffee maker, pots, pans, silverware, and other basics that made the stay easy and comfortable while still keeping the cabin’s rustic charm. Nice bed too!
One of my favorite parts was watching my girls explore — running down to the river, climbing around the rocks, walking the forest trails, and sitting around the fire at night under the lights. It felt safe, simple, and very connected to nature.
Sure, there are fancier places to stay. But for the experience, atmosphere, and setting, this place was a real treat. By the way, their campsite looked really nice as well — same great location. Wonderful host to communicate with – – you can’t go wrong.

As others has said in previous reviews, it’s a one-of-a-kind camping spot. I won’t go into all of the details that are mentioned in the other reviews, but definitely read them. Here are some additional details that I think will provide guidance for future visitors.
1. Know the tides well. We preferred going in and out on high tide with the canoe, but walking in and out on low time is fine as well. Just know that you will get very, very muddy. It’s very silty mud and easy to get stuck. Bring good boots and multiple pairs of socks.
2. Mid-tide is a tough call. It’s tough to get the canoe out and it takes a little while to walk and you wouldn’t want to get stuck.
3. Pack light. We took way too much stuff. The campsite has chairs, cookware, a gas heating camp stove, gas. There are also life jackets for the canoe.
4. I’d recommend bringing a tent. It’s set up to sleep inside, but the front is open. A storm hit us on day 1 (and it is the PNW) so I’d bring one.
5. Your car(s) are safe by the train tracks. I was worried about this before I got here, but it’s very private and I didn’t worry about our car getting messed with at all.
6. Be weather / tide / water aware. I’d stay pretty close to shore if you don’t have experience in open water. If you tipped the canoe out in open water you’d be in trouble. It’s a pretty remote area so you’d likely be on your own. That said, it’s a very stable canoe.
I think that’s about it,… It’s a bit of work to get there, but a great site!

Weekend Trip to Valhalla Tree Farm
We had a wonderful weekend at the A-Frame on Huckleberry Hill! This cabin is super cute, exactly like the photos/description. The view is beautiful, and it was very private, we didn't see anyone else while we were there (you can just barely occasionally hear the campers at the next site over, but they weren't the least bit disruptive). It was very peaceful, falling asleep to the sound of the frogs and crickets, and occasional owl call!
Few notes to future campers: the cookware is mostly mess kit-type pots and pans with a cast iron pan or two, so bring your own if you if there's something specific you're expecting to cook with; we had excellent cell service; the town of Granite Falls is only a 12-15 drive from the campsite; we were in a Nissan Juke with AWD and had no issues with the driveway, but I wouldn't want to try it in a sportscar; there are not any places to hang a hammock at the site, we were glad to have brought our portable hammock stand.
Thanks again for the great weekend :)

Brittany is a pro and seems to just know how to make our stay comfy and homey.

Weekend Trip to The Chuckanut Rock
Tony was an excellent guide on our quick hike to the location. Pro Tip: Wear proper shoes, it can get muddy and slippery quick.
Open concept, secluded oasis, stunning views, and a complete breath of fresh air.
We were able to fit our tent underneath the structure and have an amazing view of the stars at night, plus waking up with the sun in the mornings.
Be prepared to take some time in setting up camp as it is open to the elements and nature.
There is gear on site, but since the structure is open air, be sure to bring along what you think you will need, even if you end up keeping it in the car.
Canoe for paddling around at high tide and a great spot for rock hounding and tide pooling. If you are a seafood lover, highly recommend Taylor Shellfish Farms down the road for the freshest oysters and a beachside dinner.
Would love to keep this place a secret because it really is a gem of a spot. See pictures attached 😊
We will for sure be back! Thanks Tony!
