Nature is your panoramic view! You may find that your perfect holiday is here within walking distance from your safari tent, situated on a 900sqft fenced deck in a private corner of our property. Your path to the nature trail takes you to an undisturbed beach where you're likely to see eagles and herons at the shoreline, seals bobbing, and anglers fishing salt & fresh waters. The estuary, distillery farm fields and forest all lead you to the Oyster River. In your own little field, a variety of bird species, deer and field rabbits grazing are a near certainty. This area is like no other...Many nature lovers enjoy it here for the diversity of wildlife from the ocean, coast, forest edge and marshland all within walking distance. Even the occasional humpback sitings have been reported in recent summers. You're in the thick of it!
There is no compromise! Still only a short drive into Campbell River, The Glamping Beachcomber is close to everything you’re coming here for, yet miles away from anything familiar. A 15-20min drive to the city for more hiking and biking trails, wildlife tours, Quadra Island ferry, museum, restaurants, shopping, and swimming spots. Many of our visitors come to visit Strathcona Park, the oldest provincial park in BC.
Your large Safari Tent sits on a 900 sq’ wrap around fenced deck and is extensively furnished inside and out. Whether you dine at the waterfront marina restaurant a few min walk down the beach or al fresco on your own outdoor kitchen supplied with all the tools, this all makes for a unique vacation experience.
In addition to the comfortable queen bed, 2 mattress & cots are available to put inside the tent at bedtime, or to use under a 10’x10’ canopy with detachable walls, or under the stars! From the deck you’ll catch the sun rising just after it hits the horizon, and enjoy watching it set over the trees in our field. The glamping site is in a safe place, with a private home nearby, but barely visible from your deck through some trees. It’s a combination of rustic bliss and comfort.
The Glamping Beachcomber is adjacent to the Salish Sea, and welcomes you to its driftwood covered shores for a campfire, swim, flyfishing, beachcombing or merely a spot to relax and think about the day.
ALL WITHIN 10 min - A semblance of civilization isn't far! Tastings and tours at the distillery, or the essentials for groceries, liquor store, specialty coffees, pizza and medical clinic, are just beyond the nature trail, or a 2 min drive from your glamping site. Salmon Point boat launch is at the marina across the road.
Sandy Saratoga Beach on the other side of the River, Golf, Mini-golf, 9-hole golf (and award winning golf courses further into town), Miracle Beach Provincial Park, and the bottom of Mt Washington.
