Nile Point - Oceanfront Camping

5 sites · Lodging, Tents20 acres · Sunshine Coast, BC

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

Overview

About

Set in the subalpine terrain that was home to the 2010 Winter Olympics Nordic events, Callaghan Lake Provincial Park is just 30 kilometres from Whistler and has snow until June each year. During the brief summer, an informal, user-maintained campground is available. Anglers, hikers, and boaters attracted by the undeveloped wilderness take advantage of the area's ample hiking opportunities as well as the lake fishing. Bobcats, cougars, black bears, and grizzly bears frequent the area, as do deer and mountain goats. Several basic campsites are found in a clearing at the end of the road. Callaghan Lake Provincial Park is located in the territory of the Squamish Nation.

Tips for snagging a campsite

The park’s informal sites are first-come, first-served, and there is no charge.

When to go

Callaghan Lake Provincial Park is open for camping after the snow melts, usually from mid-June through October.

Know before you go

This park has just one user-maintained pit toilet and no water—visitors should be self-sufficient.
Because of frequent wildlife activity, campers should use a secure food stash.
The 8-kilometre drive into the park from Whistler Olympic Park is on a rough Forest Service road known for potholes and washouts. High-clearance 4x4 vehicles are recommended.
