About this property

Forest Cabin - Hot Tub - Fast WiFi - Fire Pit On Site

Welcome to The Calm Chaos Forest Cabin Glamping Space (Calm Chaos is a joke the former tech/city people that own and live on the property to match their personalities as they adjust to country living and the adventures that unfold here daily). We refer to this place as the Tardis (Dr Who fans know what we mean), because it looks so large on the inside.
Nestled on a once grand private estate in Maple Bay, BC, after about 30 years of neglect this property was purchased and its transformation begun. This amazing RV reno is close to the ocean with exclusive access to the property’s 5 acres complete with a pond, gazebo and an ancient forest. The property is totally exclusive and private access with an 8-foot fence and a medieval iron gate keeping the outside world out. You have access by remote or app only. ( You’ll be given temporary access during your stay).

The property is located next to some of Vancouver Island’s most spectacular mountain bike trails (the annual BC Bike Race route passes by the property). Centrally located makes for quick access to any adventure - from beautiful wine country to amazing scenery of the Cowichan Valley. There are so many things to do from food choices, shopping, exploring, hiking and breath taking super natural British Colombia. Maple Bay and Genoa Bay, plus other area in the Cowichan Valley. You can access the area fast by float plane (there are 4 scheduled daily flights from Vancouver – a quick 40 minute flight and the property is minutes from the float plane dock in Maple Bay marina. There is also BC Ferries for a more traditional method of transport, the Hulu fast ferry from downtown Vancouver or commercial airline.

Summer short get away

First time living in a RV, overall good experience. AC/heat pump definitely helped and the unit is hooked with city water and electricity were also plus. Minor glitches from the hardware but easily get around them. Would stay again.

Was pet friendly, my friend had to make up his bed, sheets were provided but left to sort ourselves, the glasses were filthy, the rest was fine for an older unit, could use better instruction on amenities.
