About Retreat Underwood

Retreat Underwood is an 8-acre forest retreat on an oceanside property in Cobble Hill, on southern Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The property offers three large, private boondocking-style Wild RV Sites - Foxglove, Little Apple, and Maple - along with the Camas Guest House, the Fern Cabin, and well-maintained walking trails through the underwood. Located 25 minutes from Duncan, 35 minutes from Langford, and about an hour from Nanaimo, it makes a quiet home base for exploring the Cowichan Valley and southern Vancouver Island.

The Wild Sites

Retreat Underwood offers three large boondocking-style RV campsites, each with a big private plot and plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the woods. Every site has its own character, named for what grows around it.

Foxglove

At the top of the property. Named for the foxglove that escaped an English garden long ago and now self-seeds through the forest, its tall pink flower spikes reaching through the underwood.

Little Apple

A private plot in the heart of the property with room to settle in, surrounded by forest and the quiet of the Cowichan Valley countryside.

Maple

Tucked down and to the right as you enter, under the canopy. Look through the trees and listen — the birds are chirping at Retreat Underwood.

The property is also home to the Camas Guest House and the Fern Cabin, with well-maintained walking trails connecting it all.

With Gratitude

Retreat Underwood takes pride in its stewardship of the land, and gratefully recognizes the traditional territories of the Malahat, Cowichan, and W̲SANEC peoples — honouring their enduring presence, wisdom, and stewardship of this land.

Guests are invited to share in that care: wander the paths, watch the wildlife without disturbing it, and leave the forest floor as you found it. Retreat Underwood is a safe, affirming space for all.
