Friends and family celebrating on the Queest docks

Our community

A fun, safe place for family, friends and nature

Vision

To foster, maintain, and develop a desirable lakeside recreational family community for the current and future benefit of owners, owners’ families, friends and guests, the community and the area.

Mission

Responsible, owner-led stewardship

Effective, well-communicated, responsible leadership and management of Queest Village Strata Plan K611, in pursuit of our vision.

These statements were written by the Queest Village Strata Council so that every owner knows how council thinks, and so owners can tell council what they think in return.

Guiding principles & values

What we stand for

Sense of community

Mutual respect, consideration of others, community spirit, and pride in ownership.

Safety & security

A fun, safe place for family, friends, nature and many kinds of recreation.

Leadership by example

Council members take part in meetings and follow through on the work all year.

Open communication

Straightforward and effective communication between all owners and council.

Owner volunteerism

Volunteering is how we prefer to run the village. Every hand is needed and welcome, coordinated through our owner-managed council.

Good-faith decisions

Decisions are made in good faith and with good judgment, on behalf of all owners.

Plan ahead, fund responsibly

Proactive planning and financially responsible funding: decisions made for today and tomorrow.

Care for what we share

We maintain, repair and replace the road, water system, docks, parks and common areas before problems grow, in a basic, reasonable and compliant way.

Owners first

We hire contractors where needed and prudent, and give priority to owners who are interested, capable and qualified.

Respect for knowledge

We value and appreciate what each owner knows, has experienced and contributes.

Compliance

We work with the Strata Property Act and the authorities that govern us.

Keep it simple

Our lives are complex. Most of us see Queest Village as a retreat.

Get involved

Queest runs on volunteers

Every owner has a part to play. Big projects that take years and small jobs on a Saturday morning all add up, and that’s a big part of what makes Queest so great.
