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. This is a gated property, protected with a code, which you will be sent 24 hours before your arrival. 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 private outhouses at each campsite. These outhouses are protected with a code, which is sent to you 24 hours before your arrival. Campfires are allowed (when burn bans are not in place).

Loved the site, will say be on the lookout though on wild animals as we had an overnight visit from some coyotes so keep that in mind for small animals if off leash. Only con is mainly a 1 way road once in property so when we arrived there was another vehicle trying to leave so caused some issues. Overall beautiful and clean worth the trip over!

Great spot, especially if you're attending Remlinger Farms events or want a conveniently located and private quiet and beautiful space to relax. The hosts were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and respectful.

For the plant lovers, there's a huge variety of vegetation to check out.

Sally and Berry were amazing hosts. They have a beautiful property and our spot was nice and secluded. The porta potty was clean and convenient. Josh's hideaway is an awesome spot but my tent was definitely to big. A smaller tent would work better because there isn't a big level area. There are lots of trails. We were going to a concert at Remlinger Farms and there is a trail great for biking or walking to get there. Berry showed us how to find it. I would absolutely stay there again. We appreciated our hosts kindness.

The landing is one of the most magical places I have camped around here, with an incredible river and lots of swimming holes. It was wonderful! We will definitely go back. The owner, Dave, is very kind and attentive.. the property was clean, the outhouse is well cared for, and it is obvious that a lot of loving care has been put into cultivating a beautiful space. Thank you Dave for sharing it with us! Note: the dogs across from site number one howled the entire day after the owners put it inside. We had dogs and when we went down to the beach and the owner was outside, the dogs ran down to their side of the beach and aggressively barked. When they were put inside, they howled for hours. I felt bad for their situation, and there’s nothing that can be changed about it. But just a heads up. In case you are not into howling, barking dogs, you may want to look at one of the sites further down that isn’t number one. If you don’t have dogs, it probably won’t be a problem.

After staying three nights and two whole days at the landing at index in campsite number four, I can say with confidence that this is probably the best campsite I have ever stayed in! With a door-to-door drive time of only one hour and 15 minutes, unbeatable views, and amenities, incredible water access For fishing and floating and swimming, hardly any bugs, and a grocery store only 20 minutes down the road if necessary, I’m not sure why you had camp anywhere else! So grateful to David the owner for sharing his beautiful piece of land with all of us. We can’t wait to go back again! The only criticism I have is that our grill over the fire pit was far too small, but fortunately we had a cast-iron grill plate to put over it to extend the surface area. There are other campsites like #2 that has a freestanding barbecue grill, so depending on what site you stay at you may not need to worry about this. We met several guests during our stay while walking along the riverbank and checking out the property and in typical hip camp fashion, everyone was so very friendly and genuinely happy to be there!

We spent so much time at this private sandy beach. Just a short path from Site 2!

Awesome spot for easy camping with a beautiful view and river access. The spots are spaced out and I was lucky to be the only one there for 2 nights so I had the river and beach to myself as well! There are people across the river so it's not entirely private but the sites have plenty of privacy. My pup loved being off leash and the river was the perfect combination of wading height in some spots and easy slope for swimming for me. The drive is also super easy from Seattle as an added bonus. Thanks for sharing your land!

This campground was fantastic! The sites are so far apart you can't even see your neighbors, and the sound of the river is so calming. Waking up to the view of Mt Index was amazing. You have your own pit toilet, fire pit, and picnic table, and so much room to pitch a big tent and spread out. We would love to come back!
