Wake up surrounded by the stunning sights and sounds of nature. It's your panoramic view! Just 300 meters from the beaches of the Strait of Georgia, nestled on an acreage of family property is The Glamping Beachcomber. This oasis consists of a spacious canvas tent on large, fenced, wrap around deck (with room for your camping tent for 2 additional people). It’s well-furnished inside and out with an outdoor covered, supplied kitchen. Step off the deck and choose your path! If Oyster River is your destination, the nature trail will take you there. Stop along the way for a swim, picnic, paddle, driftwood fort building, maybe try your campfire building skills! Or meander above the shoreline along the driftwood covered shore on one side of you and past acres of distillery farmland and the Oyster River Estuary on your right. Where the river meets the sea just around the corner, it’s not uncommon to find a seal bobbing and heron near the shoreline, and maybe an eagle further out on the sandbar waiting for their seafood meal. To smell the forest, sea, and freshness of a flowing river all in one breath doesn’t happen many places, but it’s here every day. Deer, rabbits, herons and eagles are a near certainty right on our property. Currently there is a Great Horned Owl’s nest with 50 meters and you may catch sighting of the owlets. The bright sunny fielded forest alongside the beach blends together these experiences so seamlessly. And If a touch of civilization appeals, you'll find the essentials just past the nature trail, or a short drive away. Just beyond our property at Salmon Point… Shelter Point Distillery tastings and tours. Oyster River plaza (Grocery store, liquor store, pizza and coffee, and a medical clinic/pharmacy). Sandy Saratoga beach (water sport rentals) across the Oyster River. Miracle Beach Provincial Park. Saratoga Speedway on Saturday nights. Golf and mini golf. And we're 15 min drive to the bottom of Mt Washington, popular for hiking, ziplining, mountain biking and competition. Or, pocket your keys, and stay put. You really are in the thick of it! As a Glamping Beachcomber, natures majesty is your panoramic view. It's a complete holiday right here on the property.This Glamping Safari Tent site is the one and only on our property. With a 900 sq’ of fenced wrap-around deck, you have plenty of room! Your space is private, and fully self-contained with 4 propane appliances, outdoor covered kitchen and full furnishings inside and out. The Glamping Beachcomber has a private path taking you onto the Oyster River Nature Trail along the

Glamping at Its Best!

With kids

This is the quintessential glamping experience! Mishel is responsive and a joy! She has provided every delightful provision one could want for a vacation. The ample space and proximity to the beach made this a perfect stop on our multi-day adventure. I enjoyed having the option of a hot shower after swimming in a nearby lake. The beach, unfortunately, was a bit windy for our taste. But there is plenty to explore nearby. Everything at this site is well-laid out. Site is equipped for 4 people including bedding. Could not have asked for a more peaceful place to call home for a few days!
