1 night at Private & Peaceful Escape
I had a great stay, and it really is a private and peaceful escape! The bed was super comfy, and the big windows look out onto Katie’s beautiful garden. The kitchen is well-equipped with all kinds of gadgets: an Instant Pot, air fryer, toaster oven, hot plate, microwave, coffee maker, and kettle 😄. The electric fireplace adds a cozy vibe when you’re relaxing on the couch at night.
It was lovely meeting Katie and her absolutely adorable toy poodle, Rico. The suite is a perfect base for exploring the area, and I would definitely stay here again!

Danielle has thought of every detail that made our glamping vacation easy, comfortable and full of memories! Highlights were: coffee on the patio, feeding the chickens, picking blackberries and taking our dog for walks on the property. Our hosts were so friendly and responsive to any questions we had. A great place to unplug and unwind!

This was our second time booking Whimsical Red Barn and it was just as wonderful as the first! Danielle, Warren and their family are such warm and welcoming hosts—they put so much heart into this space, and it really shows. Their place is cozy, charming, and full of thoughtful touches that make it feel special. It’s just one of those places that makes you feel good just to be there- relaxing and uplifting. Just what we needed before school starts for our kids. We loved everything about this place. Way better than a hotel.

Weekend Trip to Rad Red Barn RV Glamping Experience
Absolutely adorable, cozy and practical setup. I dream of hosting a party here. Two completely separate living spaces, separated by a comfy covered seating area full of arts & crafts and boardgames. The owners are beyond lovely people. Would return in a heartbeat.

This place was absolutely amazing. My family of 7 stayed here and had the greatest time. With easy access to beaches and lots of things to do at the site we were always busy
Danielle did an amazing job at making the trip feel like a home away from home. Plus the chickens, the kids loved the chickens!!
If your debating on a place to stay on Vancouver island that can check all the boxes on your list, this is it!
Highly, Highly recommend!

This space is the perfect mix of nature and the comforts of home. From morning coffee surrounded by trees, watching hummingbirds to cozy comfy movie nights inside with the family. A perfect little spot with incredible hosts.

Our glamping experience at Danielle’s whimsical place was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed and cared for. Danielle and her husband were incredibly responsive and attentive—any minor issues were addressed promptly and with genuine kindness. One of the sweetest surprises was the homemade banana bread Danielle shared with us—it was delicious and such a thoughtful touch that made us feel at home right away.
We were celebrating my son’s 19th birthday during our stay, and Danielle went above and beyond to make it truly special. Before we even stepped inside, we were greeted with festive birthday decorations that made the camper feel so warm and personal. That extra effort meant the world to us and made the celebration even more memorable.
The camper itself was cozy, charming, and fully stocked with everything we could possibly need. All we had to bring was ourselves. The attention to detail, comfort, and whimsical touches throughout the space made it feel like a little hidden gem in nature. My kids couldn’t stop saying how much they preferred this to any hotel stay—“wayyy better” was the unanimous vote!
Thank you so much, Danielle and family, for sharing your beautiful space with us. We made such special memories, and we’re already looking forward to our next stay. You’ve created something truly unique and welcoming—we absolutely loved every moment of it!

This family-run glamping site is beyond our family’s expectaions- warm, inviting, and exceptionally comfortable. Danielle’s personal touch is in everything. Book with them right away because spots like this, with such thoughtful amenities, are rare to come by. Danielle, Warren, and their lovely daughters are some of the kindest, most down-to-earth people you’ll ever meet. Their location is right in the heart of the Comox Valley, Their site is a stone’s throw away to Miracle Beach Provincial Park and swimming holes in the Comox Valley. Let us support this amazing local family business. You won’t regret it!
