About this property

Whales and eagles out your front door! Stunning ocean views, private and quie


Loon Point oceanfront cottage is a natural choice for tranquillity and relaxation. Located in Quathiaski Cove, on Quadra Island, BC, nestled amid sheltering trees, you’ll enjoy the breathtaking beauty of Discovery Passage and its abundant wildlife. Watch whales and eagles over morning coffee, try your luck salmon fishing in the afternoon, and cuddle up with a good book and a glass of wine as the sun sets. Perfect for a couples’ getaway or a solo-retreat, our Quadra Island vacation rental is set on three quiet and private acres within walking distance to shops, world class recreation, and the Campbell River ferry.

For guests looking to get away from it all and get back to basics, this is the spot for you. Loon Point Cottage has one bedroom with a double bed, and one bathroom. The living room, dining area and kitchen all look out over Discovery Passage, Grouse Island, and the Campbell River shoreline. There is a small patio out front and a trail leading down to a private 61 foot dock--a one-of-a-kind experience on Quadra Island.

Loon Point Cottage is rustic but clean and comfortable. All linens are provided along with a selection of toiletries and some basic kitchen staples, such as spices and oils. There's a full kitchen and a cozy living room. From October through April, you can cuddle up next to a wood-burning stove, from May through September, you can enjoy plenty of sunlight and abundant greenery. All year round you will be dazzled by the work of art right outside your door and the ocean's ever-changing moods.

Plan your escape to our cottage today…the ocean is waiting!

Great View & Perfect Location
This was our second visit to this particular vrbo and we made the right decision again!, having visited Quadra a few times over the years. If you are looking for privacy with ocean views teaming with wildlife and a quick drive to groceries, restaurants etc., this is an ideal spot. This will be our go to getaway on Quadra in the future for sure.

Quiet, relaxing, restorative getaway with lots to explore on the island.
Neighborhood eagles and harbour seals were always interesting and entertaining. Great sunsets. The island has some awesome lake swimming (we swam at Main Lake after a hike to see Surge Narrows). We also enjoyed meals at Tsa Kwa Luten lodge which we hear will be closed after September unfortunately for island guests. Great getaway nonetheless!

Lovely Cottage, Beautiful View
We had a wonderful stay here - very comfortable and convenient. The dock access was great for taking our boards paddling and the local seals were quite welcoming. The cottage is very comfortable and has all you would need for your stay. Very welcoming hosts and we would love to come back sometime. Thank you!

Wonderful stay on Quadra
Loon Point Cottage is a lovely property just minutes from the ferry terminal at Quathiaski Cove, a 10 minute sail from Campbell River. Well appointed with all the amenities you need and a lovely deck which is bathed in the afternoon and evening sun. Directions to the property on the website were very clear and prior to our visit communicating with Kate, the owner, was always quick and easy. Sitting on the deck it was a pleasure to see a group of seals on the sea below and they were there throughout our 3 day stay. We also saw bald eagles on the jetty next to the property as well as soaring overhead. Quadra is a lovely island to spend a few days exploring and I would thoroughly recommend Loon Point.

Fantastic Quadra Island
We had a wonderful relaxing stay at the cottage. Everything was so comfortable (couch,bed,chairs). Very nicely decorated. The front deck has a marvelous view of the ocean and the mainland. Lots to do and lots of wild life to watch and photograph. Kate and Tor were excellent hosts. Catherine & Andrew Victoria

Secret Pearl !
Cabin is very private with an amazing deck to view wildlife at its best in nature, yet so close to grocery store/restaurants and shops & Ferry so you don't waste time driving and can focus on what you 'do want' to experience. Hosts very friendly and accommodating. One can sense that there has been much conscientious effort placed by the owner for simplicity and sustainability on the property. We loved it and will be back next year!

What a stay!
We arrived to this paradise and were taken away from the moment we saw the views. The wildlife in the area was nothing short of amazing. We watched in awe as a baby seal pup was born, eagles every day, and seals playing off the shores. The dock was beautiful and the water was nice for a swim. We walked to grab coffee and check out some of the local shops. The owners were amazing and assisted in getting the bbq working even on her wedding day! We will definitely be staying again ❤️

The perfect getaway
This cabin had everything we needed for an amazing stay, and the property managers were quick to reply to every inquiry. Having access to a dock was an added bonus. We watched humpback whales, seals and porpoises from the dock within the first hour of our stay! We would highly recommend Loon Cottage and Quadra Island is a true gem.

Waking up each morning to the seals and otters frolicking in the ocean below is a sight not to be missed! The serenity of this place soothes the soul. The cottage is rustic, ever so clean and is equipped well. Truly a most wonderful place to escape to!

Great Experience
This cottage sitting above the bay waters, with it's views out across Vancouver Island was a wonderful experience. I watched bald eagles hunting, the intimate life of harbor seals (almost always present in the bay), and even saw a whale breach and an otter searching for food. The deer on the property are almost tame and pretty much ignore you unless you show too much interest. Quadra Island is lovely and boasts all types of hikes - no Grizzly Bears - to lakes, reversing rapids, old growth forests. One night I was treated to fresh produce from the caretaker's garden. And very easy access to the mainland with the ferry only a 15 min walk from the cottage. Lots of privacy too. The cottage itself was well supplied, thoughtfully arranged, and very, very clean. A great experience and one I may repeat soon.

Awesome views. Peaceful and private.
The cottage was very clean and well located. It is fully stocked with everything you would need to cook a meal or breakfast. However, it is rustic. That means no air conditioning, dishwasher or TV. But you can watch the sunset over the water and the seals an eagles nearby. We had a relaxing time. Our only complaint was lack of air conditioning as the weekend was very hot.

Came for a solo trip and stayed four nights. Hosts were very friendly and the cabin was amazing, the pictures don't do it justice. There has clearly been a lot of time and effort put into making the cabin comfortable and cosy and the efforts have really paid off.

About the host

Hosted by Kate McLean (Owner)

Host profile image
Born and raised on Quadra Island, I grew up riding horses, mushroom picking, fishing and exploring with my big brother...I still do all of those things, so I guess I'm not done growing up!

I feel so fortunate to be able to call this place home. I left for a brief period of time when I ventured forth and completed a university degree. This gave my mother great hope that I would some day get a real job that involved wearing heals and a skirt. That didn't happen, but all was not lost, as I now live one door down from the home I grew up in, and I get to call my parents neighbours. I commute to work by boat every morning and never tire of the stunning beauty that surrounds me. I'm looking forward to sharing this little piece of paradise with guests.

Why they chose this property

Loon Point Oceanfront cottage offers a unique Quadra Island experience. The cabin is located on 3 very private acres with great ocean views and private dock access.
