Fortland is an incredible experience. The island is beautiful, the tent and accommodations were clean, comfortable, and peaceful. The fort has an interesting history, which the hosts, Stefan and Katrina, are happy to share during a tour inside it. We stayed at the Oceanside tent beside the fort. It was private and perfect. It was a goggy day, but we sat on the front porch and watched seals swim by. It was a last minute getaway for just one night. The Fortland team was so friendly and helpful in making it a memorable stay. We will definitely be going back!
