At Bowerbird Beach Camp, we’ve preserved the charm of yesteryear, complete with retro flooring and finishes, orange linoleum included. Embrace the occasional leaky faucet and soak in the nostalgia of simpler times. We have, however, added Starlink internet access for those moments when you just have to share the magic with your friends. Our no-frills atmosphere might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but for those who appreciate a trip down memory lane, it’s pure magic. So kick back, relax, and let the magic of Bowerbird Beach Camp whisk you away on an unforgettable adventure!
A stay at Bowerbird Beach Camp is essentially a trip back in time so please enjoy the view, the water and the occasional drip of a leaky faucet. Our “no-frills” vibe is part of our charm.
Step away from the hustle of your busy life and immerse yourself in the truly nostalgic experience of camp life. What you will find here is an immediate feeling that you are somewhere that matters; somewhere you’ll visit in your memories and relive through shared telling of stories over the years to come.
If you wanted to get any closer to the water, you would have to rent a house boat! This cabin is 560 sq ft and barely a stones throw from the beach with views from the screened in porch that will keep you entertained for hours. Other than a few throw pillows here and there, the rest of the furnishings are original to the 70’s which was when this cabin was built. Gather around the dining table for dinner, board games or an evening nightcap. The kitchen has all the necessary amenities like a fridge, freezer, stove, french press, kettle, toaster and basic cookware. There’s both a charcoal grill and a propane BBQ.
No dishwasher and certainly no valet parking service.
You’ll be close to your neighbours, whether they be the people in the next cabin over or the many critters, fish, birds and squirrels that have been here long before you have. We’ve left the inside of the cabin relatively untouched with flooring and finishes from a bygone era. A stay at Bowerbird Beach Camp is essentially a trip back in time so please enjoy the view, the water and the occasional drip of a leaky faucet. Our “no-frills” vibe is part of our charm, but it’s not for everyone.
The key to a happy stay is mitigated expectations. What we mean by that is this is a back to basics, no frills, old-school, cabin-living experience. You might have to share the footpath with frogs, kick away goose poop on the beach or squish a harmless spider or two in the rafters. The local animals like squirrels, bears, mice and flies have no boundaries. Food left out is fair game so please don’t leave food outside or out on your kitchen counters.
If you require lots of hand holding, directions on how to turn on a faucet or how to use a charcoal grill, then this just might not be the best fit for you. We have other cabins on Airbnb that feature TV’s, dishwashers, quartz counters and front doors that fully seal when you pull them shut. Feel free to book a cabin there if that’s more your vibe (you know who you are- no judgment ;-).
What we know for sure is once you’ve witnessed your first sunset while floating in the water, you’ll forget about the quirks of the cabin and will turn your focus to the distant call of the loons or catching the fireflies after dusk. The worries of your world will fall away and time will have a different meaning. You will suddenly be aware that you are living what you will come to remember as the “good old days”. This is the summer holiday where you’ll actually sit down and see each other and that your kids will beg you to relive every year.
