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, a two-person kayak, and some paddleboards. 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.
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 of 50$ per direction.
We've secured exclusive moorage at a private dock in Egmont. This is where you will park. This private parking includes secure gated access, closer proximity to our accommodations, and stunning waterfront surroundings
New Dock Location:
6156 Maple Road
Gate Code: 7051 (if broken, just open and close by hand)
Do not park at the government wharf in Egmont. Please arrive at the above address.
Feel free to reach out with any questions you might have about the property. We hope to see you this summer!

A magical experience awaits you on the majestic Sunshine Coast of British Columbia near the Village of Egmont. Nestle into our modern rustic cabins or set up camp beneath the towering evergreens.

Bookings are usually a 2-night minimum. 1-night may be available at the discretion of the Hosts. New to our accommodations are the SkookumBus and a Glamping Tent (summer only)!
Our hand-built cabins provide a simply magical experience, with warm, comfy beds and bedside table, a fan for summer or a heater for winter.

Firewood is available for $30/wheelbarrow on site when available (unless we have a fire ban.)
All campsites include the fire pit and picnic table.
Everyone has easy access to the spa-like washrooms with coin-operated hot showers and flush toilets. Children 8 years old and under must be accompanied by an adult in the Wash house. There’s a dish washing station in the center of the Wash House where you can refill your water jugs and bottles or wash dishes. Please do not use for washing hair or laundry or tooth brushing. We ask that you conserve water and keep the Wash House clean.
If a peaceful experience is what you seek, enjoy the restful, soothing atmosphere of the forest. Learn to really appreciate the simple things in life. Take in the mountain, ocean, and lake scenery. Fishing, canoeing, or just lying on a beach. Sitting on the deck of your cozy cabin, reading a book or soaking in the magic.
If you are a thrill-seeker, then adventure awaits on the turbulent waters of Skookumchuk Narrows, the rapids for which our magical place is named. Skookumchuk is an old Chinook word meaning Strong Waters. There’s a timetable for you to consult to catch the tides at the best times. Follow the link below.

It was a great central location to camp while exploring the Campbell River / Comox area. Paul was super friendly and accommodating. The outhouse was clean and no too unpleasant to use. The site (we had no. 1) was a bit shady and basically a blackberry bramble, and close to the road so we had traffic noise throughout. Also we arrived past 9pm on our first night and because of the first come first serve structure, we didn’t have a reserved site. Someone had snuck onto the property and set up their tent so we had to camp in the field the first night. Paul refunded us so that felt fair. The site was missing a picnic table and we would have loved a shower but all in it was a nice stay. We loved the beach walk nearby at sunsets. Just awesome.

Wow! Don’t walk, run to this location. This eclectic oasis was spectacular to say the least. Sitting high on a hill overlooking an old restored carnival carousel next to a retro double decker bus, you feel like you have been transported into another time period. The host was phenomenal, and provided a comfortable site that came equipped with a clean a portable toilet and a gas fire pit stocked with propane. We can hardly wait to plan our next trip back and highly recommend that you get yours scheduled too! :)

Our stay at Paul's campground was great! We would love to come again! We stayed in #2 and #5.
Ace and Boyd greeted us when we arrived and helped orient us to the sites.
The absolute best feature was the night sky. We could see the Milky Way!
We brought badminton rackets with light-up birdies and glowing LED frisbees to play on the field at night. We had lots of fun with friends and family!
Thank you for hosting us!

Great location, easy to find. And a bonus was the farmstand across the road selling hot homemade sourdough loaves on Sunday morning.

We absolutely LOVED our stay over at Colin's place. The site was so cozy, and the deck with the table was exactly what we needed to relax and play cards after a long day of exploring. The camp is exactly as described and easy to locate. Would most certainly stay here again!

Colin has created a great little campsite. It’s quiet, more private than most park campsites, and super clean. Colin is not only a wealth of knowledge of mountain biking and swimming holes, but also came around every night with fresh veggies for sale. Wholeheartedly recommended!
