Oceana Acres! Mountain top ocean view on a quiet, wildlife filled sanctuary

Oceana Acres is a spacious 2300sf main level of a luxurious home, with 14' high ceilings and massive bedrooms. Many areas to sit and enjoy the views from inside or out on a large, covered porch. The breathtaking views and wildlife instantly captivate your attention (tons of bunnies birds and deer!)

Wake up in the master suite from your king size bed to surreal tangerine sunsets, fall asleep to the moon shimmer across the Juan de Fuca Straight. You will find a TV, two large sliding glass closets, coffee station and seating area in the master bedroom as well. French doors lead to the massive covered deck, and the bathroom boasts an extra large tub to soak in, bubble bath provided.

The second bedroom is also huge, with a queen bed, tv, fold out sofa, large closet and a private deck leading to the perennial garden.

The bright and spacious common areas have high ceilings to 14' and views of the Juan de Fuca Straight from almost all areas.

The Great room has 20' ceilings, sliding doors to the deck, transom windows, comfortable leather couch and love seat. It also has a large TV and a Heintzman piano.

The dining room opens to the deck through sliding glass doors, where there is optional dining seating and a BBQ.

Additional seating areas allow you to spread out and enjoy the view. Multiple games are available for guest use, and there is a Bluetooth surround system. Wi-fi is available on the property, but note that we are in a low-service cellphone area, and some mobile carriers have trouble. For many this is a lovely feature where they truly get the feeling of being out of touch.

My son daughter and I live downstairs, you might find us tending to gardens or doing yardwork in the yard below, and can help with anything you might need, but also take your privacy and comfortability to heart. We have a beautiful dog (Willow) that stays in its perimeter fence.

We allow pets, but we ask that you keep them on leashes when outside. The property is not fenced, and wildlife is everywhere.

Once you follow the long driveway, you will arrive at the house. Please stay on the pavement, and follow the Oceana Acres signs.

We request that you use the front yard, main drive and bluff area of the property.

Laundry available upon request.

There is a large, deep pond that is unsupervised and is used privately for the caretakers on the property. This is not meant for guest use and we do not encourage allowing small children unsupervised in the yard.

We hope your stay will be relaxing and memorable. We hope to see you again.

From sunrise to sundown!
This home is very spacious with well appointed kitchen and two large bedrooms. It’s perched high above the strait with a view you will not grow tired off. It also has a huge sheltered deck. You can watch the sun rise but also catch the colours of the sunset. It’s a very quiet location. And the bonus for my wife and the rest of us - the piano! We left wanting to stay longer and with the intention of returning.

Great location, and the view can’t be beat!
We stayed in Sooke while my child did the west coast trail with a group. The house was comfortable and clean, with comfy beds, and good linens. The views from the main deck were amazing, as were the views from the master suite. We watched whales in the bay, and had many sunny days. Quinn and Charmaine were great hosts, and answered any questions we had quickly. Quinn was harvesting peaches- and left us some to sample- they were amazing. It’s a large property, but you’d never know anyone else was there. It was a great stay, and we hope to return again soon! Thanks for sharing your piece of paradise with us.

Trip to Sooke
The property was great. The view was amazing, and the house is large and well appointed. Watching cruise ships go by, and enjoying the cool ocean breezes were pretty special.

Awesome views.!!
We stayed 2 nights it is a quiet spot with great view of the ocean,!! Set on 6 acres with a beautiful landscape, very peaceful and relaxing.I enjoyed sitting on the deck at night with a beverage looking across the ocean at the lights from a far away small town. The property manager made a suggestion for dinner which all four of us enjoyed, A local pub with a sassy tell it like it is server/bartender thumbs up all the way .This is the place for a quiet beautiful get away.!!! Thanks Ellen and Quinn.

Outstanding West Coast escape
The pictures don’t do justice to the beauty of this location. We hiked long and hard every day, and then had this luxurious home to return to. For two couples, it was perfect. In addition, our host was very helpful. Very well supplied kitchen.
