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.

Oceanside suite. Quadra Island BC.

Sherry was very welcoming in greeting us. She went over a couple of housekeeping items ie drinking water, garbage etc. The suite is beautiful. The views are spectacular! Imagine waking up every morning to sunshine, shimmering water and mountain views. Fishing boats, sail boats coasting by. So peaceful. We had everything we needed. Highly recommend this spot. Sherrys pond is amazing! She sent us a txt this morning letting us know there wasn’t anyone checking in, so we could take our time in leaving.

The Perfect Vacation Rental

I don’t think I can fully describe just how perfect our stay was. The pictures on the website can’t begin to do it justice. The hosts Sherry & Mark made communication easy right from the start. Sherry is such a lovely host, she was an absolute pleasure to deal with. The suite is private and so peaceful. Equipped with everything you need. The bed was comfortable, we slept great. The huge windows facing the ocean held all of the entertainment that we needed. We watched whales, seals, eagles and porpoises for days. The cruise ships slipping by were fun to see. The sunsets gorgeous. We could barely tear ourselves away when it came time to leave. My husband and I would go back in a heartbeat. Thank you Sherry for sharing your beautiful space. It was a truly memorable experience.

What a great oceanside apartment!

We stayed during some fine September weather and used it as a base for kayaking and hiking. At day’s end, we enjoyed watching the tidal currents and boat traffic, and feel especially fortunate to have seen a humpback whale, some harbour porpoises and sea lions from the deck. At night we watched cruise ships go by and listened to Common Murres (a sea bird) calling to each other. The apartment is very comfortable and well set up for a single or couple, with impressive views of Discovery Passage (the channel between Quadra Island and Campbell River) out of the large windows and from the outside deck. It is a studio suite, so one room for living and a separate bathroom. Our host, Sherry, was very friendly and responsive to our questions, yet respected our privacy. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and definitely plan to return.

Idyllic

We stayed for 4 nights. We live in Campbell River, and have a fabulous view from our home, but this was spectacular! The pictures of both the cottage & ocean (views) on VRBO don't do it justice. The cottage is spacious and has everything you need, and more. Beautifully decorated, & super comfy! We sat for hours on the lovely deck just watching the boats, birds & seals. Even saw dolphins twice! Very quiet, and extremely private. If we go back to Quadra next year, we'll definitely stay here again. Thank you Sherry.

A little piece of paradise

I was looking for a little get away for myself and my mom while we were over on Vancouver island, and we absolutely lucked out when we found this spot a little more than a month before visiting. This clean, well appointed suite was everything we saw advertised online and more - the views were stunning and the light that came through those windows was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I can’t even begin to tell you how many photos I took while we were there!! We enjoyed morning coffee on the patio and warm sunny evenings as the sun sank below the horizon. Lots to watch from this viewpoint - cruise ships and boats of all kinds, but we especially enjoyed watching the regular seal activity and eagles flying about to the little island across the way. Sherry our host was absolutely lovely to deal with and was very helpful when we asked about things to see and do on the island (provided us with links/info) and was only a text away and was always very responsive whenever we had questions. We enjoyed our time at Oceanside so much and only wished we were able to stay longer. We hope to return again one day in the not too distant future. Thank you again so much to our kind host Sherry. We can’t recommend this place enough! ❤️

So lovely!

We booked this place by chance… and discovered Quadra Island, which is like the cottage country for Vancouver Island. Peaceful, with beautiful nature. When we set foot in the apartment, we gasped: a huge window with an amazing view of the strait and mountains in the background. Such a gorgeous place! The apartment is super comfortable and Sherry is a lovely host. Hope to go back!!!

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!

About the host

Hosted by Mark Peterson

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.
