Grassy Romantic with Picnic Table
I loved the location and the hosts. What a serene and well kept land. Having access to a warm showers with decent pressure and compost toilets was much appreciated. Close to plenty of hiking and ocean views.

Beautiful camp ground! We stayed in the micro peacock cabin and it had everything we needed. There was a group of us that stayed in the tents and other cabins. We brought our dog with us. The hosts were very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. At night we had a campfire, beautiful spot and well maintained. Not too far from Sechelt but far enough away that it is relaxing and quiet.

Loved the tent! Especially loved the wood fire for inside, it got colder than expected and that made it so cozy! Definitely want to come back.

We had a great camping experience. Directions were clear and we were kindly greeted with an employee who gave us a jug of potable water for personal use. The neighboring camp site was pretty close to us, but the neighbors were kind and quiet. We would definitely camp here again.

The location felt peaceful and secluded, which we really appreciated. However, there was another campsite less than 3 meters away—thankfully it was unoccupied during our stay, but if it hadn’t been, it would’ve completely changed the experience. The map provided wasn’t detailed enough to easily locate our site, and it was confusing that the listing showed it as Site #16 on Hipcamp, but it was labeled as Site #3 in person. There were no site numbers marked on the map either, which added to the confusion. That said, the site itself was well-furnished, which made setup much easier and saved us a lot of time. The amenities were thoughtfully provided and very convenient overall. We would stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Tiny Secrets! The ocean view trailer was as described and we got to see some of the other cute places our friends were staying in and they were all lovely.

Loved having the tent and kitchen stuff already set up when we arrived. The site wasn’t private as there was another site right next to it, but luckily no one was there for the first two nights. Shower was a nice touch, if a bit rough / basic. But the water was hot and pressure was good. I was surprised by all the conventional (aka toxic, non-biodegradable) soaps and cleaning products considering this is an organic farm. Same with the kitchen supplies — all plastic and teflon. But we never slept better and was wonderful to wake up to bird song.

We had a wonderful time camping here! Lots of salmonberries near our campsite, and some trails winding their way into the forest. We stayed in the bell tent, which was really cozy and comfortable. The kitchen setup was well-stocked, and Karen & Kito were able to help us out with some last minute firewood because of how damp it had been before our arrival, which was so appreciated. The one thing we wished for was a bit more privacy at our campsite, as it is right on the main footpath across from a central camp kitchen (with a barbeque and space to hang out), so other campers were often passing by. We had a really great sweet time here & would definitely recommend it to others! Thank you!

Furnished camping is a genius idea for people who want the experience but don't have a car with enough space to bring all the necessary equipment. The location was perfect - 45 mins from the ferry terminal, 15 minutes from Sechelt, 9 mins away from a great easy hike. The site had everything we needed and is a GREAT value stay.
Not a complaint, but feedback, I would pay a bit extra for a proper washroom, a shower, and a more accessible water source. Jugs are provided, but they weren't enough during our stay, given that there were four of us. The provided water source is far from our site (5 minutes walk) and we didn't end up finding it. We had a general idea of what we were getting into, though, so we had a good time and will probably be back! Maybe one of the cabins next time :)

Really cool place! We didn't realize there were mini cabins and other things like that to stay in vs. just a campsite so we will definitely be coming back! (Campsite was awesome though and having been provided drinking water was super helpful)

Loved the A-frame cabin. Private and cute. They provided us whatever we needed; Water, ice packs, propane tank, and even extra firewood. A bit chill at nights but ok.

We had a great stay. Beautiful property. Well maintained sites. The solar lights throughout, hammocks, and decorative mushrooms on trails made it feel very enchanted while walking around and looking at the unique cabins and clamping setups.

We really enjoyed our stay at Tiny Secrets Campsite in Bentwood Forest 1. The whole experience was super easy — check-in and check-out were no hassle at all thanks to the clear instructions. The site was quiet and peaceful, exactly what we were looking for. Everything was well maintained, and the tent pad was large and level, which made setting up a breeze. The fire pit was solid and perfect for evenings by the fire. Karen and Kito were great hosts — communication was clear and friendly. You can tell they’ve put a lot of thought into the space. We’d definitely come back!

We had everything we could possibly need in this quaint little cabin!! It was nice and toasty at night time. The site handyman was never far away should we need anything. Perfect “glamping” scenario!

Charming Peacock Micro Cabin & Loft
The peacock cabin was wonderful. It was very clean and comfortable. The campground grounds were not as large and well kept as the map would suggest but still a nice stay.

We camped in the bus at Tiny Secrets and loved it so much. It was cozy, comfortable, and had everything we needed to cook there. The views were really pretty from the bus door and the property was gorgeous to just walk around with our dog.
Bit of a learning curve using compost toilets for the first time but there were helpful instructions in the washroom.
Staff were friendly and helpful and there was useful info in the bus about the property too. We loved staying here, thank you. 💛

I absolutely loved this cozy cabin. It had everything needed to cook and feel comfortable. I loved the big windows which made me feel immersed in the woods. The property itself is thoughtfully designed and environmentally conscious. Kito and Amos were great hosts - super communicative and welcoming. I would definitely stay again and have already recommended this place to friends.

Converted School Bus - Ocean View
The bus was quiet and had a good layout, it had a well stocked kitchen, good decor and the wood stove was a warm welcome on the cold mornings.

Had a lovely couple of nights staying in the School bus. Our ferry was cancelled but Karen & Kito were very flexible and let us reshuffle our trip with no stress. Bus was fully kitted and has everything you need for a short stay. Bed was ridiculously comfortable!

Very cute and quiet spot! We initially booked 2 nights at Tiny Secrets but extended another 2- the location was perfect for us to bop around to all the places we wished to visit on the Sunshine Coast- from Gibsons to Egmont. We liked that it was off the highway, quiet, and our site was tucked at the top of the property and received a lot of sunshine. A perfect and humble spot for a weekend getaway.
