Explore the natural beauty and rustic charm of Mudge Island while glamping in a comfortable well appointed 29ft trailer on 2.5 acres of private land. Mudge Island is one of the smallest islands among the Southern Gulf Islands in the Strait of Georgia. Hosts, Jia & Ric, have been living and working on their beautiful waterfront property for 5 years, building a work-in-progress hobby farm, zen gardens, orchards, and vineyard. Mudge Island and its surrounding waterways are home to bald eagles, herons, orcas, humpback whales, sea lions, and seals. We offer canoe and paddleboard rentals, as well as guided canoe paddling tours of Stuart Channel, False Narrows and Dodd Narrows, the scenic waterways surrounding Mudge Island. Ric, your host and guide, is very knowledgeable about the local history and marine life, having lived in this area for most of his life.

Order or pack your own picnic lunch and spend the day exploring one of several beaches, each unique and beautiful in their own way.

Either way, Ric & Jia look forward to hosting you on your unforgettable Mudge Island retreat and adventure!
