Rita and Scott are accommodating and kind. The river is beautiful, the hot tub is romantic (with a perfect view of the water) and it is perfectly secluded. I look forward to many more "staycations" at harmony lodge! Best part of all is that we can bring our dog!!!

I did not stay overnight here but I did go through the reservation process including submitting my…read morecredit card number, name and address. Basically, the owner made an offer in an email that she did not keep and reserved the cabin out from under us a few days before our trip. Here are the details: I wrote Rita an email asking about the cost for a three night stay. She wrote back with a final cost and I confirmed via phone call. I gave over my full name, credit card info and home address. She then called back and said she was sorry, but the price she'd quoted me was incorrect because she'd based it on two nights rather than three. She owned the mistake and gave me a new price reflecting three nights. I agreed to the new price initially, and she sent over a contract to sign before 7pm that evening. After speaking with my wife, we decided the new price was simply too high so I wrote Rita to cancel. She apologized again and offered one of the nights for free to make up for the mistake. She said she'd email me a new contract to reflect this adjustment. I said that was wonderful. She wrote back shortly after to say that she was sorry, but someone else had begun to reserve those dates and she'd write back if they fell through. Ok? So here I'd gone 95% of the way through the process, received an offer in no uncertain terms, and had it retracted at the last minute ostensibly to earn more dollars from another client. I didn't post screen shots of our emails here as a courtesy. If it's your first time staying here I'd strongly consider other options first given the customer service issues I'd encountered so early in the process.

Fishing is great and just steps from the back door. Close to skiing and hiking trails. The views of the mountains and wildlife are fantastic. The cabin it self is a luxurious place to spend time with family and friend just relaxing and getting away from the busy day to day life. Beds are fantastic for a great night sleep! Lots of room and space to spend quality time with friends and family! Fully equipped kitchen and cabin that is well cared for and clean. Lot of space, we loved every moment here. Inside and out you can't go wrong staying here. Our stay was fantastic and we want to stay again very soon!! Definitely recommend staying here!!

A group of six purchased Living Social vouchers for the Lopez Island 3 hour Sea Kayak Tour…read more We needed to take a ferry to get to Lopez Island. Plan accordingly. http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/ Outdoor adventures keeps the guided groups small (maximum 12 people). I appreciate the small groups since this was my first time kayaking. Three types of kayaks are available: single, double or triple occupancy. Discover is an accepted form of payment. A Discover Pass is required to park at Spencer Spit. If you do not have a pass, a $10 day pass can be purchased with cash or check. There were several rangers checking passes on our visit so be sure to have a pass visibly displayed to avoid being ticketed. WHAT TO BRING - Signed Release of Liability - Bathing suit or non-cotton under layers preferred - A synthetic shirt (capilene, polypro, Under Armor, etc) - Shorts or pants made of a synthetic material (may get wet/damp) - Lightweight fleece jacket or windbreaker/rain jacket to provide warmth - Water shoes or sandals that strap on (or shoes that can get wet) - Sun hat and/or sunglasses - Sunscreen and chapstick - Water bottle - Optional; Camera, Plastic bag for wet items and change of clothing - If you have a gift certificate or prepaid voucher (such as Groupon) please bring a printed copy with you! Dorito Dan was our guide for the day. Dan was friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The first hour is dedicated to introductions, procedures and safety. Be sure to use the restroom before departing. Once on the water, there is no turning back. Kayaking is great for teamwork and communication. Both are required to avoid frustration. I recommend wearing weight-lifting/bicycle gloves in order to prevent blisters. Each person in our group started getting blisters towards the end of the tour. During our 3 mile kayaking trip, we spotted starfish, seals and majestic bald eagles. Thank you Outdoor Adventures for providing a magnificent day of play while surrounded by gorgeous Mother Nature. We all plan to return in the near future for another go-around.

What a great spot!…read more My girlfriend and I went here this weekend and it was a getaway that was much needed and that hit the spot. Located only an hour and some minutes from Seattle, you'd think you're in another world; one devoid of both hustle AND bustle and abundant of relaxation, serenity, and peace. If you're looking to getaway, spend just over $100/night on a great cabin in a great location, give Barak (owner) a call at 360-793-2103 and set up a reservation!

The Wild Lily Ranch is the perfect weekend (or even one night) getaway from Seattle. Perks of Index…read moreWA include: only an hour and fifteen minutes travel time, no mountain passes to cross, and yet it feels and looks like you are right up in the mountains. The Ranch itself has two cabins--one big and one small. We've only stayed at the little cabin and it has been perfect for a weekend away of relaxing, reading, and listening to music/radio/podcasts. They do provide a delicious home cooked breakfast, but one down side is that the little cabin doesn't have any cooking appliances, so you either have to bring snacks to store in the little refrigerator or venture out to the Index Cafe for dinner. Overall I'd highly recommend this place for couples who want an easy way to get out of town to relax/be in the wilderness without the hassle of snow tires/chains.

Andrea was our guide, and she gave us a perfect stretch of sizable time on the Skykomish. In the middle of the trip, we shored the raft, and Andrea set up a delicious lunch spread. The spread even accommodated my wife's dietary restrictions. We also had the opportunity to swim around in a crystal-clear pool of water that was behind the rock bar. You could go with the mega-sized outfit that probably gets more hits on Google, but I've dealt with those companies. They tend to rush people in and out, and see their operation as more of an amusement park. With Chinook, Shane and Andrea love what they do, and have decades of experience on the river.

We have shown that we are more than willing to schedule times and be accommodating however we have only been blown off, disrespected and not communicated to. -Having MY HAIR RUINED by the Joseph Group due to negligence & failure to provide appropriate notice of water shut off. -Constantly being ignored and disrespected by the Joseph Group aside from reaching out/ asking for help with every single situation several times. The main reason we chose to rent this unit is because both myself & my roomate are handicapped and need access to reliable parking. We wanted to ensure that our vehicles would be close, safe & never blocked in/ have any issues with our accessibility. Aside from having designated parking included in our lease with the Joseph Group; they have failed to provide us with the safe, accessible parking we signed up & pay to have. Both my roomate and I have had damage occur to our vehicles on several occasions. We have been blocked in on several occasions- this has started to negatively impact our lives. Again - My vehicle is blocked in by macitence people for the Joseph Group... Due to them blocking me in, I missed my chiropractor appointment that I will still be charged for... I was recently in a car accident & these appointments are critical to my health and recovery. I am literally better off risking parking my vehicle out on the road to ensure I can function in my daily life/ not be blocked in. Unfortunately after today I need to start to look for more appropriate housing that provides everything included in my lease along with having property management who isn't negligent of their tenants. This unit is amazing & I have absolutely loved living here aside from my experiences regarding the Joseph group property management team. My experiences with the Joseph group have honestly been rather traumatic & caused a decent amount of damage to my personal life that I'm going to be dealing with/ remembering for the rest of my life. The Joseph group has refused to put me I direct contact with the owner/ won't allow me to file a formal complaint against them. Don't move into a unit with these people!
