Superbly located on a beautiful stone beach on the southeastern part of Quadra Island, this charming, spacious, and cozy house features a great veranda overlooking the ocean and neighbouring Cortes Island. The well-equipped kitchen, beautiful garden, and private setting made it an ideal retreat for our always busy family. We felt at home. Shops and a couple of local restaurants were just a five-minute drive away. Right in front of the house, there was a quite unique tidal pool where you can spot crabs and starfish during low tide. Swimming is possible in the sea, but water shoes are recommended.There's also a deer family that regularly visits the garden.The check-in went smoothly. Host Hilary makes sure you feel at ease right away and is happy to point you to Quadra's hidden gems

We had the most amazing time!!! Driftwood Harbour exceeded expectations! The house was amazing. I loved the experience of opening the front door and all you see is ocean through the windows. We spent so much time on the deck and combing the beach for cool rocks and driftwood. And there is an amazing tide pool right in front of the house that we enjoyed along with the blue heron’s! There were also lots of little touches that made the house extra special like a lovely basket of treats (including a delicious bottle of wine) and blankets that we used as we stood on the deck at sunrise to watch the whales!!!!)I also loved how tucked away the house was but so convenient to get to/from the ferry and Heriot Bay is really close.Hilary took SUCH good care of us - she was the cherry on top of this amazing experience. We didn’t want to leave and I know we will be back.

Host profile image

Driftwood Harbour is our happy place and peaceful home where we reside parts of the year, with a dream of making this our main home when the business of raising a family and holding international jobs slow down. While originally from the West-Coast and Netherlands, Joel and Petra (homeowners), live in Ottawa with their 3 teenagers.
Hilary, Joel’s mother, lives on the property in a separate cottage, and is the main caretaker. You can reach Hilary by phone during your stay.

Why they chose this property

The West-Coast beauty with it's untouched nature, habitat, wild shoreline and forests is true place of peace. Quadra Island with it's wonderful community offers a place for family connection, creativity and exploration.

What makes this property unique

The house offers comfort and character. A large surrounding deck gives you ocean views at any time of the day with various nooks to retreat to providing peace and family connection. Light floods into the home from all directions, and every window offers an unobstructed private view of the property.
The three-level open floor designed house has a living-, dining area and kitchen with stunning views and coziness of a wood fireplace. The home has three upstairs bedrooms: one master suite with ensuite bathroom (with walk-in shower), bedroom with 2 twin beds, and a bedroom with 2 single beds and an additional sleeping nook. A separate toilet can be found in the hallway and an additional full bathroom on the main floor.
