McAllister Creek Farm is pleased to offer a unique and rustic country stay in our 24’ Yurt, Log Cabin Bunkhouse and Gypsy Wagon overlooking the pond. The yurt sleeps 3-4 with a king sized bed and futon, the Log Cabin sleeps 3 with a bunk-bed that pulls out to a double on the bottom bunk. Accommodations include the use of the Gypsy Wagon that serves as the Kitchen with full-size fridge, convection/air fryer oven, 2 electric burners and all kitchen accessories. Outside is a bbq and propane firepit. The washroom building includes an outhouse and shower with a view of the pond. Please note if you book either the Yurt or the Log Cabin there is a chance the other is occupied by other guests and the Washroom Building and Gypsy Wagon Kitchen will be shared. It’s a wonderful space to drink in nature and create some well-deserved peace and tranquility. You are welcome to stroll on the path along the pond around the farm and hang out with the herd of friendly goats and visit with the Scottish Highland Coos. For a limited time only there are lots of baby goats to cuddle! Your neighbours in the adjoining pasture Stanley and Ollie the resident donkeys will be your wakeup call. Let us know if you'd like to participate in any of the daily activities and we'll be happy to have you come along with us. The Yellowpoint area has a lot of great parks and features, within a short drive you can check out Yellowpoint Park for a nice walk through the woods, and if you want to see the ocean, Roberts Memorial Park, Cable Bay Trail and Blue Heron Park are all quite spectacular. Blue Heron is great for swimming in the heat of the summer as well, quite rocky so take water shoes. Exploring a bit farther away will take you to the top of Mt Benson in Nanaimo (a 900m hike) or WildPlay Nanaimo has a fun filled day of adventure courses. Local farm stands and artisans are in abundance. The Cedar Market just a few kms away has a great farmers market on Sundays and Duncan has their Farmers Market on Saturdays. Nearby restaurants are the Wheatsheaf Pub a local favourite located 12 mins away by car in the neighbouring community of Cedar. The Cranberry Arms pub is a bit further down the road from the Wheatsheaf and is great for a casual bite. The Crow and Gate is a very short drive away and is famous for its English pub charm. The Mahle House in Cedar is a higher end restaurant and Coco's Cafe is a great spot for a coffee or lunch. Its important that you have a great experience here at McAllister Creek Farm and we'll do everything in our power to make that happen. Reconnect with nature, Revive your spirit and Rediscover yourself

Yurt with Farm Views
Such a peaceful, relaxing setting, it was perfect for our family of 3 + dog. Our toddler loved feeding the animals and being so close to the sweet gentle donkeys. Lisa is a wonderful host and her land is so diverse and beautiful!

THE GOAT with goats
Log Cabin Bunkhouse
Lisa's place is amazing! Lovely little log cabin, the kitchen wagon was an amazing touch and the outdoor bathroom and shower was perfect. Loved that the sink is built into a stump! And the string lights make it look so lovely at night! Right next door to donkeys, goats and a couple doggies, plus a secret pathway to a rowboat and to more goats was a nice find! Easy to get to, very close to Ladysmith and Nanaimo! We'd probably live there if we could!
