Welcome to Mariposa!

Mariposa is an open-concept cabin perched on a mossy bluff on Quadra Island. Drew Harbour is a short walk away, with nearby trail access to Rebecca Spit and local shops and a pub close by.

Inside, a queen-size sleigh bed, a cosy sitting area, and a breakfast nook create a welcoming retreat for up to two guests. The wraparound deck offers space to unwind and enjoy the quiet neighbourhood and visiting wildlife.

Your private outdoor shower and washroom include an eco-friendly waterless toilet. Coffee and tea, a bar fridge, and breakfast prepared by your host are included.

Mariposa welcomes writers and couples seeking rest and relaxation. Although we love animals, we cannot accommodate pets.

$180 per night plus applicable taxes. Minimum stay: two nights. A deposit is required when booking.

More than just a cabin…

This butterfly-shaped cabin is more than a holiday home. Within its walls, Mariposa holds stories of belief and becoming. Its metamorphosis was part of my own. Neither transformation came without mess or tears; both now celebrate the beauty of the struggle.

Mariposa honours all who came before, all who are here, and all who are yet to become part of its story. With gratitude, I open its doors to you. I hope this unique space, and the natural world surrounding it, enrich your life as they have mine.
