Recently moved to property to begin our new journey, this property holds an immense sense of peace and wellness, grazed by lamas and alpacas for past 2 decades &10acre farm property completely fenced in and void from predators, general public, and unwanted guests. Pockets of old cedars, ponds, forest trail and privacy. Feel at one with surrounding nature. Gated and fenced in access points for use coordinating with grazing animals. Learn more about this land: Our property is located in between Qualicum Beach and Parksville on Vancouver Island! We have a friendly, small alpaca herd and 6 blissfully friendly goats.

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    Alpaca Woodland offers a unique camping experience that's both serene and engaging, with Roger as a standout host. Visitors consistently praise the spacious and private campsites, coupled with the charming company of alpacas, goats, and other wildlife. The location is conveniently close to local attractions, yet feels wonderfully secluded, providing a peaceful retreat. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, a few guests mentioned room for improvement in the cleanliness of shared facilities.

    We had a fantastic stay at Alpaca Woodland! Roger was an above and beyond host- he came out during a thunderstorm to offer extra shelter for our tent. The animals were so cool to meet and the location was wonderful for exploring the Qualicum Beach area. We’ll be back and would highly recommend!

    Great secluded campsite just off the old highway. Roger was a fantastic host and his little farm is very private and has lots of shade on a hot August day. He made sure we had everything we needed for a lovely stay. Can't wait to come back. His animals are super cute too.
