A quiet, private yurt tucked into the land — a place to slow down, unplug, and settle into a different rhythm for a night or two.
Simple, off-grid, and intentionally unpolished in the best way.This space was created as a place to step out of the usual pace of things.
Not a resort, not a curated luxury stay — just a simple, well-loved yurt on private land, with the basics you need to rest, cook, and spend time outside.
The yurt sits a short walk from the parking area, on the edge of a clearing near the pond. Immersed in nature, you’ll hear birds, wind through the trees, & maybe the ducks chattering near the pond. Wild flowers and towering trees surround the space, which is private and self- contained.
Inside the yurt, there’s a comfy queen bed, a small wood stove for cooler nights, and a simple, cozy setup. No grid power — just rechargeable lighting and a slower pace.
Outside, you’ll have access to:
– a covered outdoor kitchen space (propane burners + charcoal grill)
– a hot/cold outdoor shower
– composting outhouse
– propane fire pit lounge area
It’s a place that tends to invite a different kind of stay — slower mornings, earlier evenings, time outside, simple meals.
At times, we also open our private Nature Spa space (wood-fired hot tub, sauna, and cold immersion), though availability varies seasonally, especially through the summer months due to fire restrictions.
If you’re interested in accessing the Spa during your stay, check out our "Extras" during booking - we try to keep it updated with whats available.
This space tends to be a good fit for those who:
– enjoy simple, off-grid stays
– are comfortable tending a fire if needed
– appreciate quiet, nature, and a bit of independence
It’s probably not the right fit if you are:
- Looking for a fully serviced or luxury experience
- Needing constant power, Wi-Fi, or modern amenities
- Highly sensitive to ambient noise. Depending on the season, the frogs in the pond are loud at night! And there is the occasional hum of traffic noticeable during peak rush hour.
If you’re looking for a cozy, nature-immersed place to land for a couple of days, this space is here for you.

This property was purchased nearly half a century ago. For the majority of this time the forest section you will be camping in was left undeveloped, apart from a few mountain bike trails. Recently, as a family, we have seen a large increase in the people traveling to the Sunshine Coast to escape the city limits. Unable to rock up to a campsite and pick our spot like we used to, it was easy to see a growing demand. We have taken everything we love about camping and done our best to give you a sense of what life on the Coast is really about. Gibsons -Sunshine Coast is a 40 minute ferry ride from Horseshoe Bay in West Vancouver BC
Please note: By entering onto the property you release all liabilities towards us as hosts. You are choosing to camp in a forested area that contains many hazards as well as potential threats. These include but are not limited to; Wild life (bears, bob cats, cougars etc), Fire is a serious threat to this region during summer months strict no smoking policy is in effect. Care should be taken walking around uneven surfaces. All campers are required to stay within camp boundaries fail to follow these protocols will result in being asked to leave.
Please respect this piece of land as much as we do.

Kait and Tom have a really special place. The Yurt sits next to the spa which is nestled among trees, a pond, quaking ducks and birdsong. It was very restorative and calming to be there. The outdoor kitchen is great - added bonus is it gets the morning sunlight, which is nice to have first thing. I loved having the sanctuary to myself and truly felt at peace. Even better was the delicious charcuterie board they prepared for me - a superb add on which I highly recommend. Can't wait to go back!
