Hi, my name is Dave. My family and I would like to welcome you to Nile Point, a secluded campsite located on 20 acres of privately owned, oceanfront property on Nelson Island, BC. I consider it the closest thing to paradise. The first you'll need to know about this property is that it's only accessible by boat. This is what makes the campsite so secluded and peaceful. Transportation to and from the island is included with your stay. The stunning 15 minute boat ride to and from Nile Point is one of the many things that makes this a truly unique experience. The second thing you'll need to know is that we offer TWO SITES on the property, a 10x16 TENT PLATFORM and a OCEANFRONT CANVAS TENT WITH ENSUITE (NEW!) with king size bed, in-tent ensuite bathroom and fully stocked outdoor kitchen with potable water, bar fridge and BBQ We have one canoe, one one-person kayak, and a paddleboard. Bring your own water exploring devices if you wish. Our beach is rocky (it ain't a sandy beach!), so bring your good water/rock shoes! This is a great place to stay and explore if you love the wild. It's off the grid, so if you want to unplug from devices and do nothing but relax or play in the ocean and explore the forest, it's perfect. That said, there is cell reception should you need it and a solar charger if you need to charge your devices. There's free parking at the pickup/drop off location in Egmont. Egmont offers a pub, a fancy restaurant, and a charming convenience store with wi-fi. We can take you in to town during your stay for an additional charge. Feel free to reach out with any questions you might have about the property. We hope to see you this summer! Dave

Our five days camping at Dave and Eli’s land is a truly exceptional experience that combines stunning natural beauty with warm hospitality. Here’s a closer look at what makes this destination so special: 1. The campsite offers breathtaking views of the ocean. Whether it's the sunrise or sunset, the panoramic scenery is simply unparalleled. 2. Guests are greeted with genuine warmth and friendliness. The hosts go out of their way to ensure that everyone feels at home and has everything they need for a comfortable stay. 3. Accessing the campsite by boat adds an extra layer of adventure and exclusivity. It truly feels like you’re escaping to a private paradise. 4..The outdoor showers offer a rustic yet charming touch, allowing you to enjoy the spectacular ocean view while you freshen up. It’s a unique and refreshing experience. 5. The wildlife around the campsite is extraordinary. From porpoises and eagles to seals, otters, sea cucumbers, and more, nature lovers will be in their element. The diversity and abundance of marine life make for unforgettable wildlife encounters. Ocean side is a must-visit for anyone looking to combine adventure with natural beauty and tranquility. Whether you’re there for the stunning views, the warm hospitality, or the incredible wildlife, this campsite offers an unforgettable experience. Thank you Dave and Eli

Amazing Vacation Spot!
Our trip to Nile Point was absolutely amazing. It was better than we ever could have imagined. The hosts are great, they check in to make sure you have everything you need and are always available for assistance. The canvas tent was great, it’s clean and fully stocked. I was surprised with how many utensils/accessories were available to us. If you’re looking for a secluded vacation but still like to have some luxuries, look no further! You get to feel off grid, without actually being off grid. Cell service was pretty decent. Texts and phone calls weren’t a problem. The whole family enjoyed their time here and we all voted we’d come back again and again. We stayed for 3 nights which felt like the perfect amount of time. We felt like we were camping, but had the best sleeps from the comfortable beds. We ventured out on the paddle boards/kayaks over to another island where there was a safe rock jumping spot. We had a great time checking out the hot tub at night. There are no complaints from our experience. Best trip ever!

Dave was incredibly welcoming, helpful when rain came in and he assisted in putting up our tarp, and very kind in general. The site was beautiful, and the oceanside fire-heated hot tub was such a great way to relax. Fantastic host and campsite!

Unique and unforgettable Camping
My family met a very kind and customer-conscious host, and the four-day camping schedule was comfortable and I could relax enough. It was a time to recharge the energy needed and think about our family in a place that goes well with the beautiful nature of BC. Thank you to the host for all of us satisfying the comfortable conditions. I plan to come back to the place where Eggmont welcomed me after almost 20 years.

Perfect 3 days in a perfect Island
My husband and I loved Nile point. Definitely a place to return to, very relaxing. We needed to disconnect from the city but still keep checking work emails so it was essential to have cell reception.

Calling this gem “glamping” undersells the space. The tent and outdoor kitchen were lovely. It’s the perfect secluded venue to enjoy the Sunshine Coast. Would 10/10 recommend. To top it all off the hosts were very accommodating and willing to provide anything and everything to make our trip perfect. Thanks for the great stay!
