Almost Heaven

3 sites ¡ Lodging1 acre ¡ Squamish, BC
CLOSED FOR THE 2023 SEASON! Reopening May 1 2024. Sites will be available to book from February 1 for the 2024 camping season! Operating Thursday - Sunday. Located on 1.5 acres of second growth rainforest and fully fenced, the camp area is minutes from the Cheakamus river, accessed in either direction on Paradise Valley road. Our property is reached after travelling 4.2km of gravel on Paradise Valley road. about 15 min from Hwy99. The gravel road condition can range from smooth and graded to dusty and washboard, but is always accessible in a 2wd. We are just far enough from civilization to feel like you're out in the woods, with amazing dark sky's and stargazing. String and path lighting provide ample light, set on a dusk to dark timer. Bring your flashlight for off-hours. This is a shared space campsite, and pet friendly, so you may or may not have neighbours if you’ve only booked 1 site. We have a friendly family dog, a Labrador X named Arthur, who may interact with you. Prepare your meals in the shared kitchen, with the provided 2-burner propane stove, pots and pans, cutlery and kitchen basics. A french-press coffee maker is provided. there is an overhead light for the evenings. There is a charcoal grill but you must provide your own charcoal and starter fluid if you're planning on using it, and clean it when you're done. A sink with water is provided for dishwashing and cooking. A full sized 1950's vintage fridge will keep your food fresh and secure behind the sliding glass doors while you're out adventuring. Condiments are not supplied so bring your own if needed. There is a 120V electrical outlet for charging your devices. There is no WI-FI available, but you do get a couple of bars of reception on your mobile devices. YOU ARE IN A WILDLIFE AREA, AND NO FOOD OR GARBAGE CAN BE LEFT UNATTENDED OUTSIDE AT ANY POINT!!! The bathroom has running cold water at the sink, with hand soap and a hand towel provided. The shower is an antique claw-foot bathtub with a hot-water-on-demand shower. Towels are not provided, so you must bring your own, along with personal cleaning products if you plan on showering. The stainless steel incinerator toilet is clean and efficient, with toilet paper provided. Instruction for its use must be strictly adhered to and can be found next to the toilet. 2 large propane fire bowls, and a full 20 lb propane tank ( last 6-8 hrs ) are available to rent for $35, or bring your own setup to use. Small wood fires in the fire pit may be considered during cooler shoulder seasons when fire bans are lifted, but are not guaranteed. No open flames are permitted during fire bans. This is non negotiable and could result in a $1250 fine from our neighbouring fire warden. Drinking water is available, but bringing your own is recommended. There is a beautiful, but gruelling, 45 minute hike to Starvation Lake for warm water swimming, or mountain bike the Sea to Sky trail which begins a few minutes from our driveway. There is lots of opportunity to view wildlife, or forage for herbs and mushrooms. Paddle the river in your kayak or river raft, or fly-fish for steelhead, salmon seasonally, and trout year round. Access to the river is NOT permitted though our property. You're welcome to use your Bluetooth speaker at a reasonable level, but keeping noise down after 11pm is appreciated by all.

Nile Point - Oceanfront Camping

5 sites ¡ Lodging, Tents20 acres ¡ Sunshine Coast, BC
Hi, my name is Dave. My family and I would like to welcome you to Nile Point, a secluded campsite located on 20 acres of privately owned, oceanfront property on Nelson Island, BC. I consider it the closest thing to paradise. The first you'll need to know about this property is that it's only accessible by boat. This is what makes the campsite so secluded and peaceful. Transportation to and from the island is included with your stay. The stunning 15 minute boat ride to and from Nile Point is one of the many things that makes this a truly unique experience. The second thing you'll need to know is that we offer TWO SITES on the property, a 10x16 TENT PLATFORM and a OCEANFRONT CANVAS TENT WITH ENSUITE (NEW!) with king size bed, in-tent ensuite bathroom and fully stocked outdoor kitchen with potable water, bar fridge and BBQ We have one canoe, one one-person kayak, and a paddleboard. Bring your own water exploring devices if you wish. Our beach is rocky (it ain't a sandy beach!), so bring your good water/rock shoes! This is a great place to stay and explore if you love the wild. It's off the grid, so if you want to unplug from devices and do nothing but relax or play in the ocean and explore the forest, it's perfect. That said, there is cell reception should you need it and a solar charger if you need to charge your devices. There's free parking at the pickup/drop off location in Egmont. Egmont offers a pub, a fancy restaurant, and a charming convenience store with wi-fi. We can take you in to town during your stay for an additional charge. Feel free to reach out with any questions you might have about the property. We hope to see you this summer! Dave

The best camping near Callaghan Lake Provincial Park guide

Overview

About

Set in the subalpine terrain that was home to the 2010 Winter Olympics Nordic events, Callaghan Lake Provincial Park is just 30 kilometres from Whistler and has snow until June each year. During the brief summer, an informal, user-maintained campground is available. Anglers, hikers, and boaters attracted by the undeveloped wilderness take advantage of the area's ample hiking opportunities as well as the lake fishing. Bobcats, cougars, black bears, and grizzly bears frequent the area, as do deer and mountain goats. Several basic campsites are found in a clearing at the end of the road. Callaghan Lake Provincial Park is located in the territory of the Squamish Nation.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  1. The park’s informal sites are first-come, first-served, and there is no charge.

When to go

Callaghan Lake Provincial Park is open for camping after the snow melts, usually from mid-June through October.

Know before you go

  • This park has just one user-maintained pit toilet and no water—visitors should be self-sufficient.
  • Because of frequent wildlife activity, campers should use a secure food stash.
  • The 8-kilometre drive into the park from Whistler Olympic Park is on a rough Forest Service road known for potholes and washouts. High-clearance 4x4 vehicles are recommended.
