Is there some "set" command I can use to make sure the output
of my query ONLY goes to my spool file. Currently, I see
it going to a SPOOL FILE and being displayed to my screen.


sqlplus -s / <<END
spool \\$SPOOL_FILE
set pages 0
set verify off
set echo off
set feedback off
set head off
select destination from v\$archive_dest where destination is not null;
spool off;
END

Put the content of the script in a SQL file with the command "set termout off" and call the file.
You cannot suppress the output on the screen in an interactive session (that is command launched at prompt).

>I went with the easy way out
if you do not throw Standard Error, then no need to redirect/suppress output

I deem my posted code as preferred implementation.
