Do you have WIFI or Cellular Service?

Yes we have both WIFI and CELL service at So Damn Lucky Glamping's office only. Telus has a cell tower not too far from us that helps with nice mobile reception, and we also purchased STARLINK for latest satellite based and fast internet speeds. Please note while Starlink is a wonderful invention to provide internet to remote locations, it’s will never be as solid speed as home based residential internet in a big city and weather could effect anything satellite.

I needed a solo retreat, I needed Mother Ocean - and the Stardust wall tent, at So Damn Lucky Glamping, met my needs perfectly. I had ten wonderful days alone at Mussel Beach and was completely comfortable despite some intense weather. The wall tent was dry and warm (thank you, woodstove!) and I cooked some delicious meals in the outdoor kitchen. The campground closes their gates in the evening so I felt safe, and with the tent some 20 metres from high water, I was filled with the energy of the ocean. Danielle and Mark are generous hosts and I would be very happy to return any time.

They pretty much have everything you need to glamp - even Siracha sauce! We wanted to try glamping and had experienced both the tent and RV units, both of which were well-equipped. The RV had a fridge and also a stove top to cook, while the tent had a wood-burning stove to help keep you warm throughout colder nights. The bed comfort in the tent was perfect for us, and they included flashlights and a charging brick for cell phones.

We had an amazing time, the directions were very clear and the dirt road was in excellent condition for a dirt road. The tent was clean, had everything we could need and it was so beautiful. The hot showers were such an awesome amenity. We can't recommend it enough.
