Perfect Location
My wife and I loved the cozy cabin for our stay in Tofino. The proximity to Chesterman beach was ideal, especially in the unpredictably rainy season. The Hot tub was the perfect way to unwind after a long day of exploring in the rain.

Perfect base to explore Tofino!
Stayed 4 nights at the Surf Shack; could have easily have stayed longer. The grounds were beautiful and the beach access extremely close. Also, the hot tub was the perfect way to end the day after hiking, kayaking, and exploring!

Surf Shack
We enjoyed our stay at the Surf Shack. It is just steps from access to Chesterman Beach and ten minutes from the town of Tofino. The shack was anything but, in fact a nice cottage that was fully equipped with everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed the tot tub. We recommend the Surf Shack.

It was a lovely quaint property, the private back yard was lovey, the attention to detail was noticed, it was the perfect place to wake up with the ocean sounds and birds. Would definitely recommend and book again! Loved the short walk to the beach, enjoyed many beach walks.

Just as good the second time!
A well-appointed, spotless, rustic cabin a two-minute walk from Chesterman Beach. Perfect for two people. It was our second visit to this location. Bring or rent your bikes to ride the new trail from Tofino to Ucluelet and then relax in the hot tub. Clean, quiet, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Excellent Stay for our 25th Anniversary
The cabin was so cozy, uniquely decorated and fully equipped with anything and everything you could ever need during your stay, the cabin was immaculately spotless clean, the hot tub felt so good after our long bike ride, walking the beach and being so close was exactly what we were looking for. So close to town, had a great Anniversary dinner at The Shelter. Highly recommend the Surf Shack

Great location just steps from the beach. The surf shack was spotless and very spacious for 2 adults. I would definitely recommend it if you want a great place to stay close to the beach and a short drive into town.

Lovely, Private, and Excellent Location
Aside from the low ceiling in the bedroom (my partner is 6'5" and had to duck a little!), our stay was awesome. The private garden, outdoor shower, hot tub, and songbirds made our stay special. Beach access is right across the street, and the bed was comfortable. All amenities were available including extra soft blankets and hot tub shoes. :) The host was attentive but in no way overbearing. I really hope I can come back some time!!
