About this property

Total Seclusion, 50 Private Acres, 2000 Ft Riverfront, Mountain Cabin, Hot Tub

Total Seclusion and Privacy, No Neighbors or Public Roads, Riverfront Cabin, Dog Friendly, Private Trails from the Cabin, Hot Tub, Fireplace, 25 Feet Above Index Creek, Fully Equipped, Wifi and Smart TV.

Patrons say the cabin and almost 50 acres property feels like Shangri-La with its quietness, serene beauty, total privacy and seclusion, no neighbors, and the only road is the cabin private road. This is an amazing beautiful locale where motion pictures are made. You have discovered the perfect getaway near Stevens Pass to inspire your mind and soul.

There is a large hot tub on the deck with stunningly beautiful view of the river and forest and Mt. Index. There is also a firepit above the river, and a large view deck over the river. The cabin is fully equipped and furnished, so all you need to bring is change of clothes and food to prepare in the full-size modernized kitchen or on the propane BBQ over the river with propane provided. There is electric heat, and wood burning fireplaces that add beauty and charm. Firewood is provided.

Accommodation highlights are unlimited wifi, smart tv, Blu-ray/dvd player, an outdoor firepit above the river, and a hammock seasonally at the river edge. In the modern bathroom for your convenience is body soaps, towels, and hair dryer. If you wish to dine out, nearest restaurant is a 10 minute drive.

The cabin and property is nestled in a forested valley above 2,000 feet of Index Creek that dances in waterfalls over river boulders in the middle of 50 privately owned acres. The property goes up the side of a mountain, up the side of another mountain, and up and down the valley. The view from the deck and the floor-to-ceiling windows of the mountains and forested valley, river with sparkling waterfalls, and huge sky is magnificent with Mt. Index at one of the valley and Mt. Baring at the other end. This historic cabin was designed in 1929 by a renowned architect as a hunting lodge for senators and was used for this purpose until the 1960s, when it was purchased by someone who owned it until the mid 1990s. The current owner is now sharing this preserved facility and land with you.

There is large view deck above the river with comfortable chairs, propane BBQ and propane provided, and picnic table.

There are wonderful private trails on this property leading to waterfalls and cozy coves at the water edge. Patrons says their dogs leap in the air with delight with their freedom on the trail. Swim in swim holes, fish for trout on the property. Observe the salmon valiantly swimming upstream. Also, at nearby Skykomish River, you can fish from the shore or fly-fish, boat and swim, and walk the shore of the Skykomish.

This cabin is 1,000 square feet, so there is lots of room to stretch out and relax with corners to get cozy in the furniture and enjoy the views from the various sides of the house.
In the bedroom, there is a cozy queen size bed in a magnificent bed frame with scrolled posts, and this bed overlooks the cascading creek and forested mountains and sky. In the 325 square foot great room, there are 2 couches on separate sides of the room near floor-to-ceiling windows, that fold out to double size beds with deluxe 11-1/2 inch mattresses, and a chair that folds out to a child bed also with an 11-1/2 inch mattress.

Children age 24 months and younger stay for free.

Your dog is welcome. We allow 2 dogs per reservation; when you reserve, note the first dog in the Pet Fee field and note the second dog in the Administrative Fee field.

We encourage you to reserve now to ensure you get the dates you want. We welcome you.

Quote by Destination360: “This property and cabin is a great example of a Washington cabin rental. The cabin is set in a wooded valley, and 50 acres of private land wrap you in privacy and isolation. There is an [2,000 foot] area of the Index creek that also belongs to the cabin, so you have this area for your own use. This is one of the more secluded rental cabins that Washington has, so you get the freedom and seclusion that people who come to enjoy Washington State travel will seek out.”

Christmas is arrive Dec 22 and depart Dec 27 (5 night stay). New Years is arrive Dec 29 and depart Jan 2 (4 night stay). Longer stays are welcome at any time,

Peaceful respite

Warming, cozy and comfortable, this cabin blends into a spectacular backdrop. I could not have asked for a better, more hospitable location to spend the week. The literal history of the lodge is a wonderful addition to an already calming environment. Helpful and attentive hosts who tended to every need, this was a rewarding stay and I look forward to visiting again.

Ideal Private Cabin Weekend

This was the perfect place for a weekend getaway from city life! Surrounded by beautiful nature and in total isolation, the cabin is a picturesque vacation spot for relaxation and peacefulness. We took advantage of the fireplace, the hot tub, gorgeous nature views, and the extensive VHS collection. The ideal weekend getaway spot for a couple or small group. So cozy! Will be returning again! Huge thanks to Rita for her constant communication and ease of directions.

Spring weekend

Words cannot describe this Cabin. It’s like going back in time. It is truly a magical place. The deck and hot tub are the a place to be unless you’re walking around the property. They have a very decent DVD and VHS a library. We were able to get some beautiful, sunny weather, as well as a thunderstorm both beautiful spectacular in their own way. I have recommended this cabin to many friends and plan to return soon.

Great getaway!

We had a belss as Ted anniversary trip and wanted to get away from the busyness of things. This was the perfect setting and cabin! Couldn’t get enough of the rushing creek! We loved the cozy cabin with its large windows looking out over both directions of the creek. My husband was a big fan of the hot tub as well. We’ll be back. Our hosts were easy to contact, and made our stay relaxing by having plenty of information around the cabin to make sure we operated things like the pellet stove, old stone fireplace, and the hot tub properly and without any issues. Thanks for a wonderful getaway where we were able to reset!

Majestic getaway

My husband and I wanted to have a quiet wedding anniversary. I have been looking at this listing for 2 years. After his deployment, we finally booked it. It was better than imagined. The beauty of the surrounding nature and the rustic cabin was worth the wait. We loved everything about this place. The hot tub was the best part. It was ready for us when we got there and so was the pellet stove. All the notes were very helpful. Make sure to read them all and youll have no questions. Enjoy your stay. You will not be disappointed!!

Fantastic Getaway

We just returned from a 2 night stay at Harmony Lodge, and my only regret is that we didn't book a longer stay. It was so easy to relax in this rustic and charming cabin (and amazing that we were able to have our pup, Nelli, with us too). We brought our cribbage board and played for hours in front of the grand fireplace, I gazed out over the roaring river while my husband played his guitar, we cooked delicious meals on the awesome Direct Action stove and enjoyed the view from the comfort of the well kept and clean hot tub on the deck. There was a break in the rain where we were able to get out for a couple of hours and explore some of the well marked hiking trails leading up the mountain right from the property, and down to the river just below the cabin. Rita is very helpful and accommodating and was a pleasure to meet. Harmony Lodge feels like a well loved family cabin, and we can't wait to book another stay; we definitely recommend this place!

Sometimes things are popular for a reason

I had to book this property about 10 months in advance because it’s so popular. What was the best thing about it? There are too many to list. There are so many amazing things about this property: Stellar views from literally every direction, the hiking, the hot tub, the almost 100 year old lodge with its gorgeous fireplace. I think one thing that needs a shout out is the pellet stove. Don’t pick the baseboard heat option (yes, this place even comes with heating options) use the pellet stove. I had my coffee every morning in that comfortable wicker chair, watching the sun rise over the jagged mountain peaks in front of that glorious stove. My dogs loved it too. And the hosts? Forget about it! You could rent every single property on Vrbo and not find hosts half as great as Rita & Scott. Love them!!! All I can say is one night I started a fire in that fireplace, my dogs were curled up in front of it and it started to rain on the metal roof. It was magical. I am pretty sure Rita is some kind of natural force that creates this magical environment that surrounds Harmony Lodge. If you’re thinking of booking, do it!

A Little Slice of Heaven

I find it difficult to articulate exactly how amazing this place was. It was the perfect place to unwind and recharge with my husband. The scenery was to die for. Killer views from pretty much every angle of the house. The bedroom window view is what dreams are made of. The livingroom window in front of the hot tub is basically the whole wall. We sat there for so many hours reading with the door cracked so we could listen to the sound of the stream. I've never met a comfortable futon in my almost 40 years on earth. Yet, somehow they have two of them! We cat napped in front of the fireplace each afternoon on them. The bed and pillows were also exceptionally comfortable, and I'm a very sensitive sleeper as far as what I'm able to sleep on. You have complete and utter privacy, but pretty much anything you could want or need is 15 minutes or less from the cabin- including awesome hiking trails and spots to fish. Our hosts, Rita and Scott were simply wonderful. They were both so hospitable and just downright cool. Rita went into great detail to show us around and how everything worked, etc when we first arrived. She was also ready to help at the drop of a hat while at the same time respecting our time and privacy. My husband and I joked with each other about wondering if they would adopt us 😂 We had all the comforts of home at the cabin: books, DVDs/VHS tapes, games, grill stocked with propane, firewood, everything I needed to cook meals, you name it. 10/10 recommend!

My partner and our 2 small dogs had a wonderful time. The best part was being in the heart of nature at its best. The cabin and amenities are just as described. The only drawback was that a dog came onto the property without an owner, which left us apprehensive about going outside with our pups; (thus the "total exclusion" was not as expected). Otherwise, this was everything I hoped it would be.
