pond and forest retreat
We loved camping on and exploring Jamie's land! The boat is such a nice touch to get out onto the pond and marvel at all the little creatures wandering about. Lots of nearby trails to hike on which our dog loved, and it is a quick drive into Courtenay if you've forgotten anything.
There are also chickens on the property, and if you're lucky, you may just be able to purchase some delicious free range eggs! Great amenities including an outhouse, potable water, and we were provided plenty of dry firewood. The tent area makes you feel like you are deep in the forest and the whole space feels very private. There are also two spots with picnic tables along with a firepit right by the pond.
Our hosts were really kind and helpful with anything we needed; would definitely stay here again when we're exploring up island!

Such a lovely stay :)
Such a great spot with really lovely hosts! Has everything you need, along with extra nice touches - a row boat available, chairs by the pond, and fairy lights for at night. Really appreciated the warm welcome, thanks for a great stay!

Quiet and Private
We enjoyed the quietness and privacy that this secluded place offered. The pond was a bonus, with a lovely trail around it. Great host who knew lots about the history of many spots on Vancouver Island. Would definitely camp here again if/when we're in the area.

Amazing private spot that has everything you need. We loved feeling like we had the whole place to ourselves. Would definitely recommend staying here!
