Description

For the fisherman, wildlife enthusiast, or those seeking the ultimate coastal escape—this 99-acre oceanfront property is truly one-of-a-kind. Owned by the same family since 1956, this legacy parcel is rich in natural wonder, history, and opportunity. Bordered by over 2.3 km of pristine oceanfront and more than 820 metres of river frontage along the salmon- and trout-bearing Amor De Cosmos River, the property offers a rare meeting of saltwater and freshwater ecosystems. Towering old-growth trees line the shoreline, and the land is alive with wildlife—bears, eagles, deer, whales offshore are just a few of the many visitors. Access is available via forest service roads that branch off Highway 19 at the Rock Bay turn-off—approximately a 1.5-hour drive from Campbell River—or by water. The property includes a decommissioned manufactured home and a shop. Importantly, there is no zoning, allowing for a wide range of potential uses—from building multiple homes to creating a campground, eco-retreat, or commercial venture. The flexibility here is as vast as the land itself. The Amor De Cosmos River—named after British Columbia’s second Premier, a visionary and advocate for Confederation—flows through the heart of the property. His chosen name, meaning “lover of the universe,” is a fitting tribute to the inspiring natural beauty found here. The river itself is thriving—last year it saw a pink salmon run of over 100,000 fish, highlighting the richness of the ecosystem and its importance for coastal biodiversity. Whether it’s kayaking sheltered waters, freshwater or ocean swimming, or simply watching nature unfold from your own private slice of paradise, this is an outdoor enthusiast’s dream. The river offers excellent fishing, and the coastal setting invites endless exploration and connection with the wild. This is more than a property—it’s a generational legacy, a rare opportunity to own and shape a piece of BC’s unspoiled coastline. (id:63159)
