A Riverside Retreat

Vacation Rental Cabin in Index, WA

Perfect location for our climbing days at Index. It was so great to soak in the hot tub after a long day of climbing and the kitchen was very adequately stocked with all the essentials and then some. Living space and bedrooms were perfect for 4 adults and we never felt crammed. Kitchen and dining were perfect for cooking and enjoyed meals at the dining table. Would definitely recommend!

Our stay in Index was perfect! You cannot beat the views from the front porch and amazing hiking is nearby. Love the mid century modern living room furniture. Enjoyed relaxation in the hot tub! And the welcome bottle of wine was a very thoughtful touch! We would love to stay here again!

Ken and Molly's lovely cabin on the river is someplace I come back to time and time again, for good reason! The view is breathtaking, the home is cozy and clean, the wifi speedy, and the hosts kind and helpful. I always appreciate how they are consistently improving and updating the space as well- the air conditioning was a very welcome addition this summer!! I am always planning my next trip to this relaxing spot.

We rented three places in Index during the same time period for our event. Of the three, this was by far the nicest, cleanest, most accessible, truest to description, with a great floor plan. Thank you Ken and your family for a wonderful stay.

So beautiful and peaceful!! Ken's place was serene, super clean and cozy. Felt like home. The hot tub and firepit along with the porch chairs and the river being right there... it was all just such a perfect getaway! I loved how small the town was - felt secluded from the world. Ken was very communicative and kind.

Ken was an extremely hospitable host. I cannot speak highly enough! He was very communicative and gave so many recommendations on what to do, as well as what amenities offered at his place. Everything was as he described it and as it looked on the website. Definitely will stay with him again!

This is a beautiful spot! Right on the the river with beautiful mountains in both directions. The house is very neat and comfortable. We loved the hot tub and hammock.

I was looking for nature, and this place delivered and more! The home is on the river, with trees and mountains as the backdrop. The views are breath taking, and I was out there every morning sipping my Chai tea while my friend took advantage of bathing in the river daily. The water was invigorating, and the hot tub was a nice ending to the day. We cooked many meals as the kitchen had everything we needed, and the dining table fit our group of 5 perfectly. We were lucky enough to book a river rafting trip in Index and found the hike to Wallace Falls enjoyable (even for the 5 year old). While we were there, a group of local artists even set up shop in front of the house to paint the landscape! I highly recommend for anyone looking for some rest and relaxation away from the big city. Ken is very responsive and we are grateful that he shared this experience with us!

Such an amazing home to relax, get away and unwind. Unforgettable views, clean & comfortable home, river access and tons of hikes nearby. The host was very kind and in communication with us throughout our stay they even had a bottle of wine for us to enjoy. Grateful to have stayed at this home we hope we could come back in the winter time!
