Tiny Secrets Farm & Retreat is an Award-winning Glamping Nature Retreat. We are centrally located on the Sunshine Coast (only a 40-minute ferry ride from Horseshoe Bay) on a spectacular 10-acre ocean-view property. We run a small, organic farm and host guests in intriguing tiny homes and glamping tents. We have everything from a converted schoolie with a woodstove and an ocean view, furnished RV's with large decks, to gorgeous, furnished campsites in the woods. Check out our micro cabins, RV's, and assortment of glamping tents. Our property is a nature oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Just 20 minutes north of Sechelt, we're close to beaches and lakes. Enjoy our recreation area with a large pond (much smaller in the summertime), our small playground for young kids, and our small orchard with several small ponds. Explore our walking trails, visit our chickens, or sit near our seasonal waterfall. There are many spots on the property to sit and chill. We've also been Airbnb hosts for over 13 years. If you come during campfire season, please bring your firewood. You're also welcome to scavenge for dead dry wood on the property, but we no longer have firewood for purchase. Typically, gas stations and some grocery stores have some for sale.

Large Flat Wooded Campsite 13

92%
(24)
Tent site · Sleeps 4
This large, flat site is ready for campers who bring their own gear. It's not designed for RV's or campers. It's surrounded by forest but is still open to the sky. Part of the site is shaded, as it's tucked more into the woods, but the site also gets sun for most of the day, so it's perfect for camping. There is a firepit, two chairs and a patio table for your convenience. It's a short walk to the on-demand hot water outdoor shower or either of our two compost toilets. For your convenience, we now allow campers to park directly at this site. This campsite can fit one large tent or two smaller tents. For convenience, we provide you with a blue water jug with potable water. NOTE: If you're interested in one of our fully furnished campsites, please check out our other listings, as we have a range of choices. We also have one more sunny campsite available for campers with your own gear, if you require a second site or prefer a site with lots of sunshine.

Tent site · Sleeps 6
This large, flat site is ready for campers or a group of campers who bring their own gear. It's surrounded by forest but is still open to the sky and it has a view down over our pond and even a small ocean view. Part of the site is shaded, but the site also gets sun for most of the day, so it's perfect for camping. There is a firepit, and a picnic table, as well as some camp chairs. It's a short walk to the on-demand hot water outdoor shower or either of our two compost toilets. For your convenience, we allow campers to park near this site in the designated parking space. This site is for tents, not RVs, as there is a very short walk between the parking space and the tent site. This campsite can fit one or two large tents or several smaller tents. For your convenience, we supply you with blue water jugs with potable water. NOTE: If you're interested in one of our fully furnished campsites, or a site suitable for an RV, please check out our other listings, as we have a range of choices. We also have other campsites available for campers with your own gear, if you require a second site. Some have sun/shade or a mix of both.
