Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024.
Great for groups
Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is great for larger groups.
Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
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).

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 campsite is at the bottom of a rugged drive so an SUV or AWD vehicle are recommended, especially during the wetter seasons of Spring and Fall. There is a fire pit, outhouse and large picnic table. Be sure to bring your tent, firewood and water. You might spot some wildlife including deer, eagles, raccoons and salmon running during the Fall. Don't forget your camera and binoculars to take in the awesome views. Local places to hike include Wallace Falls, Sunset Falls, Lake Serene, Bridal Veil Falls, or maybe you like rock climbing, white water rafting, kayaking or fishing. All are available and located just minutes away. 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. Approximately 55 miles east of Seattle and 25 miles west of Steven's Pass.

This was hands down one of the best car camping spots we've ever stayed at. All the things you want in a campsite. Unique places to sit, tent spots, trails to the beautiful river, spacious sites where you can barely see your neighbors. We would come back in a heartbeat!

The drive to the camp site #2 wasn’t bad at all. When we arrived the site was very clean, as well as the outhouse/bathroom. There’s nice paths to the river and more trails to make your way to the beach. Campsite 2 had a great lay out for two 6 person tents, as well as being further from other sites. Which to us, meant more privacy . Overall, great experience.

Definitely our favorite Hipcamp location! Being right by the river, the sites are big, you can’t see your campground neighbors, the outhouses are clean and well thought out, and Dave is so so helpful and kind! Worth every penny and we’ll always come back!

Campsite 4 ( EAGLE )
The landing was an incredible place to stay and im so thankful for the opportunity to spend time there. Waking up to the sound of the river and the view of Mt Index was unbeatable. The site was well maintained and each site even had its own (clean) out house. We were able to walk up to Coffee Chalet which was such a special little place and the owners were very kind. I would Def recommend The landing when exploring the area! We plan to stay again and hike to lake serene.

Outstanding site. Clean. Well maintained. Breathtaking view of the mountains directly across the river. Tons of room for larger groups using 2-3 tents. I just went with my son for a quick boys night. He loved it. I loved it. Plan on bringing the full entourage of me, my wife, and our 8 kids this summer. Great, great site.

Campsite 2 ( Raven's Roost )
This is the second time we’ve stayed here and we love it. Campsite 2 is a more private space at the end and it’s great for our dogs. The giant picnic table is amazing for all our stuff. We’ve only been ourselves but there is room for a few tents/ campers. Our kid loves the water and throwing rocks was a key activity this trip. We love that it feels so secluded and you get the full camping experience but aren’t too far away from civilization.

Dave saved our first trip of the season! We forgot a few essentials and he was there to help us through. There was also a pop-up sauna that was amazing. We’ve stayed at most sites now and each one is special. They are all clean, spacious, and many with access to the river. Best campground ever and we return year after year. Thanks, Dave!

We really enjoyed camping at The Landing, campsite #5 (Osprey). We were the only campers on the grounds, which was really lucky—but the campsites are very private regardless. Every campsite has an amazing view and easy access to the river. (Campsite #5 seemed to have the most direct path to the river). The campsite is well equipped with a fire pit and LARGE picnic table. The outhouse was a godsend. This was my first camping experience as an adult, and it was AMAZING. 10/10, would camp again!

The spot was well kept and the views were amazing. Can’t wait to go back and explore. We were unable to stay because the day we chose there was a windstorm that broke our tents. Even with that, we knew this spot was special. David ended up fully refunding our trip. Booking another one over summer soon!

Me and my family really enjoyed our stay here in a tent, the only thing that we felt could be improved is more signs, it was very difficult for us to find it, other than that we really enjoyed our stay it was the most beautiful view, we had a chance to go walk through all the campsites and we loved every one of them I would recommend campsite 1, 3, and 5 out of all of them. He also provided a lot of wood which helped a lot! We also brought our 2 dogs and they had a blast! 10/10 would recommend and will be returning.😁

Amazing site! I would go back in a heartbeat. It’s a beautiful campground set right next to the river, across from majestic peaks. The site was one of the nicest I’ve ever seen. The outhouse was perfectly clean and well stocked. The campsite itself was meticulous. (I hope we left it in as good a condition.) David was very helpful in giving directions to the site. Well worth the extra $$ to have such a gorgeous place for the night! 5 stars!!

Gorgeous and well maintained campsite! We came to car camp for one night with 3 young kids (3-9) and had a great time. The river was beautiful and the kids enjoyed throwing rocks into the river. We were able to build a campfire (site had 2 chairs) and roasting marshmallows was a highlight. The outhouse was also very clean and made our stay very comfortable. We did hear a dog barking in the distance but it didn’t keep anyone up (plus the grown ups had ear plugs). Would definitely return.

This was one of the best campsites we've stayed at. It's very spacious with an incredible view over the river. The sites are very far apart from one another and you don't even know if other folks are there. We'll definitely be back!

This site was absolutely ideal! I’ve just started camping and I feel like I’ve been very spoiled. We felt very safe and the area provides so much beauty and fun. The bathroom and fire pit were both amazing amenities. You must visit the Espresso Chalet!
