Experience tranquility at this remote oceanfront cottage, surrounded by nature and wildlife. Fully equipped for a cozy stay, just steps away from the beach. Perfect for a peaceful getaway.
Nestled at the end of a 3 km gravel road, this remote property offers a tranquil escape fronting a quiet ocean inlet, where tidal flats teem with oysters, vibrant bird life, and pristine ocean waters. Witness the spectacle of two salmon runs in the fall, all from the comfort of a cottage perfectly positioned at the edge of a garden clearing, a mere 400 feet from the beach
The cottage itself is a haven of comfort amidst the wilderness, featuring a glass-fronted wood stove for cozy evenings, hot water, a shower, and a fully equipped kitchen. Essentials such as sugar, honey, olive oil, salt, pepper, tea, and some dry goods are readily available, alongside a coffee grinder and a marimba coffee maker, ensuring every meal feels like home. Complete with pots, pans, dishes, linens, blankets, pillows, and towels, every detail has been thoughtfully provided for.
While smokers cannot be accommodated, the cottage now boasts a system to extend wifi for those moments when connection is needed. Cell phone signal, albeit weak, can be found at the main house, preserving the cottage’s peaceful ambiance, free from the distractions of TV.
Amenities include firewood for heating, propane for the cooking range, hot water, and fridge, ensuring all the comforts of modern living are at hand. The cottage comfortably sleeps up to 4 guests, featuring a queen bed in the bedroom and a fold-out hide-a-bed in the front room. Guests are invited to explore the expansive property and paddle out into Desolation Sound with our canoe.
Finding this hidden gem involves a scenic drive north of Powell River on Highway 101, followed by a journey through mature forests down to a garden clearing marked 'Koppen - 9120', where an adventure in sustainable living and mindful electricity consumption begins. The journey to the cottage is an adventure in itself, recommended for those prepared with groceries, a flashlight, and solid shoes. Dog owners are asked to be mindful of their pets in this shared natural haven.
Powell River, a cultural hub with a rich array of arts, outdoor activities, and water sports, lies a 35-minute drive away, offering an extension of exploration beyond the cottage's tranquil confines. Access to and from Powell River is facilitated by ferry services and a transit bus, making this secluded oasis not just a stay, but an experience of connecting with nature's untouched beauty.
