DRIFT Studio / Oceanside / Firepit / Van Isle / BC

Welcome to DRIFT Studio
Your peaceful retreat by the stunning Salish Sea!

Nestled in a magical west coast forest and just steps from the shoreline, this cozy cottage offers an ideal escape for any occasion. Whether you’re seeking a romantic retreat, a serene office away from home, an artist’s or writer’s haven, or a birdwatcher’s paradise, DRIFT Studio is the perfect destination.

Unmatched Views and Wildlife Encounters
Let the soothing sounds of the waves and the breathtaking views of Denman Island, the Salish Sea, and the historic Chrome Island Lighthouse set the tone for your stay. From the comfort of the cottage, witness the wonder of an Ancient Fishing Weir, which attracts incredible marine life like elephant and harbor seals. Bird enthusiasts will delight in frequent sightings of bald eagles, blue herons, loons, and more. Keep your eyes on the water, and you may even spot orcas gliding through the channel.

Comfort and Coastal Charm
After a day of exploration, unwind by the cozy fireplace with a favorite book, soak in the tub, or gather for a beachside bonfire under a blanket of stars.

The studio features a fully equipped kitchen and a BBQ on the deck, making it easy to prepare fresh, delicious meals. Take advantage of the nearby local markets and seafood options to savor the flavors of the coast.

A Perfect Location for Tranquility and Adventure
Though DRIFT Studio feels like a secluded haven, it’s conveniently located just 40 minutes from Comox Airport and 20 minutes from the resort community of Qualicum Beach.

For those craving adventure, rent a kayak or use one of the two provided paddleboards to explore the shoreline. Fishing enthusiasts can organize a trip from nearby Deep Bay Marina, while the surrounding area offers endless opportunities for hiking, nature watching, and relaxation.

Need More Space?
For larger groups or additional accommodations, the main house, DRIFT Bungalow, is also available—please inquire for details.

Important Information
Please note that access to DRIFT Studio involves descending approximately 80 concrete steps, most of which lack a handrail. However, a motorized tram is available to assist with luggage transport, ensuring a smooth arrival and departure.

Experience the West Coast, Your Way
Whether you’re here to immerse yourself in nature, find inspiration, or simply relax by the sea, DRIFT Studio offers the perfect setting to create unforgettable memories.

We can’t wait to host you and help make your stay truly special!
The cabin is soundproofed and features a kitchen and a patio. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Perfect spot for a getaway

It was delightful to stay at this quaint little cabin! It's well appointed with everything needed, and the location right on the beach is ideal. I had the pleasure of watching eagles, herons, seals, sea otters, and many more forms of wildlife right out the front window. The cozy fireplace is a great added touch for the cool evenings. If you seek quiet, solitude, and a beautiful venue to re-charge, this place is for you.

Spectacular!

Beautiful spot on the ocean. Hosts were great. There are stairs down to the property, but doable for the average person, and hosts very willing to help with luggage! A great experience:)

Beautiful Place to Stay!

We just stayed here for a little New Years getaway, and it was perfection. Such a cozy little cabin with everything one needs to cook and be comfy. Beautiful location, beach walks abound and all the supplies to have a little campfire session. Aria the caretaker was friendly and speedy with replies, communication was great too from the Owners and made for a very smooth check in and check out process. Would love to come back in the summer!

Drift Studio was the perfect reprieve from a busy city life. So many wonderful birds and wildlife outside the front door. Eagles heron sea lions and otters entertained me for hours. The studio cabin was well appointed, clean and everything I had hoped for. I plan to return one day.

Tides and tranquility

Right at the ocean's edge, viewing herons and eagles. The cabin is very comfortable and well appointed. Mobility an asset to visitors, but we enjoyed the exercise of the stairway down to the site. Many nearby places to shop, or to enjoy forest walks. A very enjoyable place.
