About this property

Private Ocean View Suite

Oceanside is a beautiful private studio suite featuring stunning ocean views of Discovery Passage and a small island with an active Bald Eagle nest. Take this all in through the large picture frame windows or from your private terrace. Enjoy the beauty of every season in this exceptional suite year round. The suite enjoys south-western exposure embracing the sunlight and an ever changing view of boats and cruise ships traveling through the passage - dolphins, sea lions and orcas can frequently be seen.

The air conditioned suite features a full kitchen with bistro dining table. A bar-b-que on the terrace is a great way to end a fun filled day. Cozy up in the queen size bed featuring fine linens and enjoy the beautiful ocean view the minute you wake up in the morning! Enjoy the heated tile floors in the full size bathroom featuring bathtub and shower.

Get away from it all and enjoy the tranquility and beauty of the suite. This private suite has its own private entrance from the main residence. The Suite has the best of both worlds. In season, take a 3 minute stroll to beautiful April Point Lodge and enjoy dining, fishing, or take in a wildlife tour.

Explore Quadra Island; beautiful Rebecca Spit is a perfect place for a picnic or to spend the day. Quadra features spectacular fishing, hiking, mountain bike trails, kayaking and scuba diving and much more! Visit the Nuyumbalees Cultural Centre, Salmon Eco Centre, Cape Mudge Lighthouse and South-end Farm Vineyard. Take a drive around the island and visit a variety of artisan studios from pottery to blown glass.

Friendly small island spirit is to be found all over Quadra and particularly at the Quadra Island Saturday market from May to September. You can spread out a blanket and make a day of it. Lots of grass, sun and shade from the trees. Enjoy the talent of a diverse mix of vendors, local artisans, food, produce, goodies, music, entertainers.

Quadra Island has a nine hole golf course including a brand new mini golf area! Offering ocean views, standing stone formations and the deep quiet of the forest, the exceptional island beauty of Quadra Island Golf Club will more than fulfill your golf desires.

Discover the magic of Quadra and OCEANSIDE!

We had a wonderful week long stay in this quiet, lovely, well equipped and very comfy studio suite (e.g. heated bathroom tiles, comfy bed, fresh flowers) with a wonderful view of the ocean and mountains. From our window we looked out at an eagles nest in the trees on a small island just to our left, seals lolling on the rocks, had several whale and porposie sightings, thanks to a text from Sherry, our host we saw a family of deer slowly walking by our front window one evening. Sherry was a lovely host welcoming us when we arrived and texting us before we left.

Unbelievable!

From the very start, our stay at Sherry's lovely spot on Quadra was beyond our expectations. The size was ideal for two and everything we wanted was there: a fully functioning kitchen, 2 lovely sitting areas (one inside and one out), a comfy bed, a clean, organized bathroom and a beautiful setting. The view from the deck and the living room is second to none! Sherry was helpful, gracious and responsive -- as was her son who also helped with the arrangements. Many, many thanks to both.

We booked this place by chance… and discovered Quadra Island, which is like the cottage country for Vancouver Island. Peaceful, with beautiful nature.

Peaceful retreat above Discovery Passage

We stayed in this studio apartment for three nights in August 2024. The space itself was very nice. Clean, full amenities (loved the heated bathroom tiles) provided, with thoughtful design. The view of Discovery Passage, its surging tidal currents, and the surrounding mountains was mesmerizing. Wonderful sea kayaking opportunities literally next door, with lots of wildlife. Sherry and her son Mark have been in the hospitality business for many decades, and really know how to treat their guests well. They were very accommodating.

An Unforgettable Stay with Spectacular Views

Our recent stay at this wonderful property was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the spectacular views that greeted us. The house itself was beautifully decorated and impeccably clean, making it feel just like home. Sherri, the owner, was incredibly responsive and accommodating, ensuring our stay was as comfortable as possible.Every day was a treat with the breathtaking scenery. We were thrilled to spot eagles soaring above, and we enjoyed watching a variety of cruise ships, fishing boats, and float planes passing by. One of the highlights was hearing and catching a glimpse of what we believed were whales or porpoises – an experience we will cherish forever.We truly didn’t want to leave this little slice of paradise. If you're looking for a place that combines comfort with stunning natural beauty, this is it. Highly recommend!
The small deck was the perfect perch.

Stormwatch

Beautiful, well appointed suite, clean and a perfect location to explore the island from. Greeted by a Humpback whale outside the window on day one, not to mention other wild life sightings during our stay. Massive storm passed through during our visit so missed out on sunsets, but on the other hand storm-watching was great. Can imagine the patio would be thoroughly enjoyed during warmer weather. Sherry is a great host - only a text away if needed. This suite is for sure added to our shortlist of places to stay!

I almost want to keep this a secret, it's so wonderful!

We spent four fabulous nights in this wonderful suite. Everything was perfect. Beautifully designed, well stocked and so comfortable. We were lucky enough to have one of those amazing sunsets featured in the images, it was spectacular! We spent many hours happily watching the activities along the water from our private deck. Eagles, seals and vessels large and small provided constant entertainment. Out hostess was equally lovely and we were honoured to share the one night per year when her Queen of the Night bloomed! Thank you so much for a fabulous stay, we can't wait to return!

It's such a pleasure providing a place for guests amidst nature's bounty. This Passage where a huge variety of ships ply the waters en route to Alaska is a constant wonder. Throw in deer, whales, seals, eagles, otters and you won't want to leave your deck!

About the host

Hosted by Mark Peterson

Host profile image

Sherry has lived on Quadra for 60 years and us originally from Great Falls Montana. With her husband Warren they co-owned April Point Lodge just down the road. Following the salmon depression of the early 90s, they sold the lodge but kept the adjacent properties. Sherry still loves to welcome every guest and handover the key personally. Her son Mark manages the property for her. She looks forward to meeting you and thank you for booking with Oceanside.



Why they chose this property

The largest and most populated of the Discovery Islands, Quadra Island is nestled between Vancouver Island and the mainland of British Columbia. Quadra Island is a popular destination for visitors from around the world, and is best known for its natural and beautiful wilderness scenery, and its excellent salmon and freshwater sport fishing.

What makes this property unique

Oceanside Studio is unique in that it is very private and a 3 minute walk to world famous April Point Lodge & Resort featuring outdoor/indoor dining, bar, fishing, wild life tours and much more.

The mild temperate climate, rural lifestyle, pristine environment, breathtaking coastal scenery, and the friendly people of Quadra all add to the charm of the Island.

The diversity of people, professions, lifestyles and pastimes is what makes Quadra Island a truly great place to live or visit.
