In a cedar grove, nestled among the ferns, a lotus belle tent awaits you.
A unique bed and breakfast in an off-grid tent.
Inside the belle tent there is a comfortable double bed with clean sheets, plump pillows, and a warm Pendelton blanket.
A 'west coast homestead basket' with granola, fruit ,and farm eggs is provided for a nutritious breakfast.
A Berkey water filter provides delicious water from our mountain well.
Inside the tent, a comfortable chair looks out over the mossy forest toward the creek.
There is room to stretch, and a couple of yoga mats to use.
A stretch is especially nice after exploring the nearby trails through Mount Maxwell forest.
The trails take through a varied and fascinating forest. Along the way are mossy knolls with vistas of the valley, ocean, and Vancouver Island.
One trail leads all the way to Burgyone Bay.
The belle is an off-grid seasonal tent with electric candles for lighting and a composting toilet.
At night there are solar string lights--should you want them--which illuminate the path to the tent.
On clear nights, turn the lights off to star-gaze through the branches.

Enjoy the sounds of nature on forested acreage in Roberts Creek. Unwind with the abundant wildlife and the sounds of creeks in the forest. Stay in our thoughtfully furnished renovated private camper on a secluded grassy meadow with ponds and a towering cedar forest on six acres.
This is a rural property in a small horse ranch community. In the spring to fall, you will likely come across owls in the trees, frogs, crayfish, ducks and a turtle in the creeks and ponds, deer, coyotes, cougars, and bears, who will walk through the land on a daily basis. Please be aware, keep your distance from all wildlife and use your bear smarts. This really is a wonderful coastal experience with a balance of comfort and rural.
15 mins from the Ferry, close to Gibsons boasting cideries, breweries, restaurants, art galleries, and shops.
This is a rural property with extensive wildlife. Please expect to come across bears, deer, and coyotes with the occasional cougar sighting. Please keep your space clean and make your presence known.

Weekend Trip to Woodland at The Shamba
This property felt very private for us! There’s a 2 minute walk down the trail to the tent area, pretty easy to get your stuff there if you’re used to trail walking. Lots of fresh fruit and granola bars provided for us! The toilet is very simple but clean and fine for a couple nights. We brought all the necessary camping equipment minus a tent and sleeping bags. You will need outdoor chairs, a stove, cooler and other camping essentials. This was pretty obvious given the description and reviews so don’t be shocked when it’s just a bed and table! Overall we really liked the area and the tent and bedding were clean and very comfortable, had a great stay!

We absolutely love staying at Tyla's property. It's so peaceful and quiet and has everything you need for a very comfortable, relaxed stay. We appreciate how dog friendly it is, but also how impeccably clean it is, as some places that advertise being dog friendly can have some unpleasant tell tale signs! The camper is always spotless and you can see the love that has been put into every detail. The bed is sooooo comfortable. We always sleep incredibly well here. Nice comfy cotton linens as well. Tyla is also incredibly responsive if you need to ask her anything. Thanks so much again for having us. We will be back again!

Mielle was a wonderful host. The land was peaceful and lush. The bell tent was clean and spacious.
A few things for future visitors:
The forest is quite humid so the tent has a slight musk smell. We had one exceptionally hot day during our stay and that dried out the tent enough to clear the air but otherwise it is a bit damp. Not unpleasant enough to bother us but slightly noticeable.
Also it is definitely an off-grid tent which is wonderful for those who want to unplug. The host is also very generous and gave us access to a trailer they have on the property that had a flush toilet, electricity and running water.
Some things to note: the tent site is a short distance from the parking so you’ll have to pack in and pack out. There is a ravine in the middle so if you are bringing in a lot of supplies for camping, this will take some time. This site is better suited as an eco-bed and breakfast than a camping site as there is no picnic table, which makes cooking and food preparation challenging. Still, as campers we made it work.
Also worth noting, the composting toilet is actually a bucket but as mentioned, our host gave us access to a trailer with a flush toilet.
Overall we had a lovely stay and would recommend this site to others.

What a dream come true! I was looking for a nature getaway that was in the elements & also alluring // smooth on logistics (without the noise of public campgrounds, *ideally*). Mielle’s lotus tent in the cedar forest was *MUCH* more than we bargained for!
I adore cooking while camping (food always tastes best outside), so we brought a camp stove & filled the cooler with delicious local eats, yet didn’t have to worry about setting up a tent —> instead had a glorious, clean, spacious yurt to kick our feet up on a comfortable bed after exploring so many gems & adventures Salt Spring Island has to offer!
Mielle was a -very kind & gracious- host.. there was fresh fruits & snacks upon arrival, clean drinking water, as well as an incredible surprise greeting from her 3yr old Bernese Mountain dog who brightened our stay beyond measure :D
Can’t recommend this place enough; hope to be back some day!

We had a nice time with our doggie at Mielle's place. The tent was large enough to spread out and the bed was comfortable. There was filtered water and fresh fruits/granola bars available on the table. We used this place to explore the parks and trails around and it was amazing. It is a simple, convenient, private option to spend a few days on Salt spring during summertime when you don't want to go camping and are pretty minimalist.

Spacious yurt in a private forested area, great value for your money! Tent was clean and well maintained. Bit of a walk from the parking spot, probably 200 meters, so just be aware if you have a lot of stuff. Bridge was still under construction and a tad sketchy but held up okay. Compostable toilet on site was clean and wood shavings were provided. Only thing it's missing is an outdoor seating/cooking spot so bring camping chairs, we just put our camping stove on the ground but it isn't very flat. Overall had a nice stay!

This is our 3rd time staying in this adorable camper on Tyla's beautiful and peaceful property. Our furry family member loves it too. Every detail has been thought of to make your stay comfortable and stress free. Super clean and quiet as well. The outdoor seating area and firepit are a huge bonus. We will be back for sure!
