35km from Roberts Creek Provincial Park · 1 siteExplore the natural beauty and rustic charm of Mudge Island while glamping in a comfortable, well-appointed 29-foot trailer situated on 2.5 acres of private land. Mudge Island is one of the smallest islands in the Southern Gulf Islands, located in the Strait of Georgia.
Your hosts, Jia and Ric, have been living and working on their beautiful waterfront property for five years, developing a work-in-progress hobby farm complete with zen gardens, orchards, and a vineyard. Mudge Island and its surrounding waterways are home to an abundance of wildlife, including bald eagles, herons, orcas, humpback whales, sea lions, and seals.
Guests can enjoy canoe and paddleboard rentals, as well as guided canoe paddling tours through Stuart Channel, False Narrows, and Dodd Narrows—the scenic waterways surrounding Mudge Island. Ric, your host and guide, has lived in the area for most of his life and is highly knowledgeable about the region’s local history and marine life. While Ric entertains guests with fables and legends of the area, co-host Jia can delight your palate with delicious, healthy home-cooked meals for those who prefer a truly relaxing vacation without the need to cook. Meals may be ordered as needed or for the full duration of your stay.
Guests are also welcome to order or pack their own picnic lunches and spend the day exploring one of several nearby beaches, each unique and beautiful in its own way. With no commercial services available on the island, you will truly feel immersed in the great outdoors. For those who wish to stay connected, internet service is available on site. Cell phone service may be spotty or unavailable in some areas of the island; however, a reliable signal is available on the property.
This getaway is ideal for guests seeking a nature retreat that can be tailored to their preferences—whether that means complete self-reliance or a fully pampered, all-inclusive experience. Additional services, such as massage therapy with a local registered massage therapist, may also be arranged, subject to availability. Ric and Jia look forward to hosting you for an unforgettable Mudge Island retreat and adventure.
