Great location and comfy cabin

Excellent location - clean and comfortable. We were just two and our dog, but would be comfortable for two additional people, perhaps kids on the pullout couch. Well stocked kitchen, comfy pillows and bed. A great option for the Tofino area!

Host profile image
We are a surfing family that live in Tofino full time. I built Tofino Surf Cabin in 2006 and have also built several houses in the neighbourhood. My wife is a massage therapist, yoga instructor and life coach.

Why they chose this property

I chose this property because i wanted to live close to the beach and be in the forest. There is something special about living in this old growth forest surround by ancient trees and moss.

What makes this property unique

walking to the beach on the multi-use path. enjoying the custom woodwork through out the house and soaking up the heat from the hydronic floors.
