Elkwood Farm

1 site · Lodging1 acre · Saanich, Capital

Our property is a small part of what was a large dairy farm situated at the north end of Elk lake. Elkwood farm was subdivided in the 70s and the land has been much loved by two other families before us. When we bought the property it had been home to horses and so we had mostly a blank slate to work on. We put in a large greenhouse where we grow veggies year round. We also built the field garden where we grow more veggies. There are numerous fruit trees, blueberry bushes and a great hedge of raspberries. I am a biologist with a professional and personal passion for birds, with careful planting and garden design as well as feeders and nest boxes I have created a haven for 47 bird species that have been recorded on our land. Squirrels, raccoons, minks, lizards and rodents also make their homes here.Learn more about this land:Rustic and whimsical; our cabin tucked away in a private corner of our tiny farm offers all the delights of camping, without the tent. There is a trail from the farm down to Elk Lake where you can swim, hike, paddle a kayak or cycle the Saanich peninsula.We are located in Saanich, BC on Vancouver Island! After following the Tiny House movement for a few years I decided to build a Tiny House that could offer travellers an opportunity for a small footprint getaway that was close to nature. The 100 square foot space is all cedar and pine with a roof made from recycled tires. The small space has been used creatively with a sleeping loft reminiscent of a sailboat cabin. Please note that there is a tight little staircase with limited headroom to access the loft. Large windows let in lots of light and sweet views of trees, shrubbery and the many birds and squirrels that call the garden home.There is a composting toilet in the separate little outhouse and a private outdoor shower. Close by is a covered outdoor kitchen equipped with all the necessary appliances and equipment to prepare meals (hot plate, microwave, fridge, utensils, pots, pans, and kettle). We have wifi, cell reception and electricity on site. There is free safe off-road parking. If you arrive by bicycle I will provide a free breakfast.I look forward to hosting you!

Ohana Farms

4 sites · RVs, Tents46 acres · North Pender Island Trust Area, Capital

Ohana farmns is a 46 Acre produce and flower farm. We are located on Pender Island in the beautiful Gulf Islands. Accomodations can be hard to find on the island, and if you do, they can often be expensive....we hope to change this by offering up the authentic experience of setting up a campsite right here on the farm!
