About this property

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


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.

20min - North to Campbell River or. South 20 min to Courtenay.

Quiet and private glamping that makes you wish you stayed longer. The hot shower was among many of the luxuries! Only a few minutes walk to a quiet beach. Lovely trails that lead you to oyster river and Saratoga beach over the bridge. We loved every minute! Great communication with owner and easy check-in process. We will be back!

Lovely, relaxing and healjng

It was great. It drizzled most of the time but we were warm and comfy. Fun to sleep with the “tent” wide open. The shower, well don’t worry the water is nice and hot. It’s not a hotel, it’s glamping.

Cute,relaxing place near ocean

My family stayed at the safari beachcomber tent for 3 nights and we really enjoyed the quiet, peaceful environment, short trails to the ocean, and the firepit on the enclosed patio (which was brilliant for our small dog). The tent had everything we needed like a comfy bed, towels, utensils, bbq, stove, and warm shower!!! Mishel was very informative and helped us with our needs. Very convenient location, close to a restaurant, stores, coffee shop, and beautiful beaches. I highly recommend Mishel and her safari tent to anyone! to the ocean

Rustic but Glampy!

Out stay at the Beachcomber Glamper tent was great and just as expected! From the check in process to the accommodations themselves, to the supplies and amenities, we literally just brought food and clothes! We wish we could have spent more time there and will definitely be back!
