The space
As you step inside Opal, you'll be transported back in time with its retro décor, vintage vibes, and classic furnishings. The camper features a comfortable seating area that doubles as a dinette, a cute kitchenette with a retro icebox and another cozy sitting/sleeping area that converts to a full bed.

The space is adorned with colourful curtains, throw pillows, and artwork that adds a touch of personality and charm.

Outside, you'll find a cute deck with a seating area and a charcoal grill, where you can enjoy your meals, soak up the sun, or watch the stars twinkle at night.

Opal also comes with a private fire pit, where you can roast marshmallows and enjoy the campfire ambiance. The camper is surrounded by a lush green lawn that offers ample space for outdoor games, yoga, or just lazing around in the sun.

PLEASE READ:

WATER: There is a faucet available outside the camper with cold running water available for drinking and doing dishes. There is no running water in the camper but hot running water can be found in the laundry room.

BATHROOMS: There is NO bathroom inside the camper. Our washroom building is located a short distance to the camper (about a 1 minute walk). There you will find toilets, sinks and showers.

HEAT/AC: There is NO AC in this unit but we do have a fan for the summer months and a small portable heater for the fall.

PETS: Unfortunately, as this is a vintage camper your fur friends are not able to join you. Please contact us directly if you have a service animal or would like a camping option that can include your pet.

CHILDREN: This camper will accommodate 2 adults or 1 adult and 1 child. It is a vintage camper though so young children (under 2) are not recommended.

WHAT TO BRING?: We recommend that you bring your own toiletries, a beach towel, if you plan on heading to the lake, your own snacks and a sense of adventure!

We do sell firewood and snacks at our camp store and our Vintage Vacations Campground concierges are there to help you with any questions that you might have to make sure you stay is a wonderful one!

CHECK IN: Check-in is between 3 and 7 PM daily and check out is 11 AM

Unlike a regular Airbnb, these Vintage trailers have several unique features in them that make them special. Everything from turning on the lights to flushing the toilet will be a new experience. For that reason, we prefer to check our guests in in-person.

If you are unable to check in between 3 PM and 7 PM, please let us know in your booking request.

If you require check-in after 10 PM, an additional staffing charge of $25 may apply.

Guest access
You will have access to the whole camper!

Other things to note
If you have never been camping this is a great way to try it out and see what you think!

I am a Nova Scotia girl at heart. I have traveled all over the world (55 countries and counting) but I am so happy to call Nova Scotia home. I have been hosted by many amazing people over the years and can't wait to repay the hospitality!
