Luxury Safari tent adjacent to the beach, following a nature trail to the river

Nature is your panoramic view! Your day begins with you relaxed, enjoying coffee (spiked or not), lounging on your Adirondak chair reading or just watching field rabbits, and listening to song birds all day. Maybe you’ll pack a lunch to take on a wildlife excursion somewhere, or walk along the nature trail along the beach to the river. Staying right here is a popular way to spend your time. Your safari tent is 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 siting has 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 to Central/North Vancouver Island for. 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 restaurant a few min walk down the beach or al fresco on your own deck. Your covered kitchen is supplied with all the equipment. It makes for a memorable and unique vacation experience.
In addition to the comfortable queen bed, 2 mattresses & cots are available to put inside the tent at bedtime, or to use under the 10’x10’ canopy with detachable walls, or under the stars! From your 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.
