This is a natural rustic west coast experience of peaceful wilderness where there are possible sightings of deer, bears, seals, herons, eagles, swans, geese, ducks and many songbirds depending on the seasons.
The property is located at Salmon Point between Campbell River and Comox/Courtenay, BC. This is your gateway to everything that makes Vancouver Island the ultimate destination if you love the outdoors. Saltwater and beach fishing, kayaking, boating, golfing, and hiking are just minutes away.
There is a resort and marina across the road and a new restaurant and pub opening soon. Shelter Point Distillery is adjacent to the property. The trail goes along the ocean, through old-growth forests and along the river ending at a grocery, liquor store, coffee and pizza place, medical clinic and a small pharmacy.
The property does include an outhouse, electrical plug-in at post and water hose. Tents, smaller travel trailers and camper vans can be accommodated.
In the early 1900s, a hotel was on the property that serviced the ships heading north in the straight and those travelling between Campbell River and Courtney. The area is within 2 km of two large sand beaches, a Chinese restaurant, and a Spa. Between Salmon Point and Courtney, you will find farm land with local fruits, vegetables, eggs and meat for sale and wineries.
Doreen’s place is so peaceful. I watched deer in the field, bats at dusk and the most incredible star-filled sky. Was awesome to have power available on the last morning when my battery died making coffee! Thanks, Doreen!
Doreen and her family we're very friendly and inviting. They were happy to give recommendations of hikes or restaurants nearby. The site was on grass and with a little adjusting you could find a level spot. Doreen even brought over a piece of her homemade rhubarb pie. It was delicious. There are tables and chairs set out at each campsite. And there was a very clean outhouse with everything you would need in there. There is also a glamping tent on the property that is beautifully done if you get tired of your camping mate. Lol.
Great property, great location. Close to the ocean, and to a fantastic trail to walk along the ocean. The property is quiet, access was easy to maneuver and park our boler.
Wonderful host, super close to the nature trail along the ocean, and quiet at night.
