    Despite being near the highway, this property was peaceful and lovely, with greenery all around. The owner was affable and friendly, and it is an easy walk to Chesterman beach for surfing, sunset watching, just pure beach enjoyment, also an easy walk to a shopping area that contains such Tofino classics as The Tofican coffee shop, Tacofino, Live to Surf plus a yoga studio and small grocery shop. The house had everything needed to cook great meals, including a barbecue and even baking utensils. Everything was clean and tidy.

    Very comfortable house with nice landscaping and surrounding natural area to include Townsend's Warbler, Western Flycatcher and Swainson's Warbler. They key to this property is close proximity to Chesterman Beach, the commercial complex featuring Tofitiab Coffee, Tofino Chocolate (gelato!), bike rentals and Tacofino. Nowhere better to be! Your quick and personal email responses were fantastic and much better than other corporate rental companies that frustrate, rather than help.

    We had a good stay. Spacious well equipped and clean. About a five minute drive to Tofino and 15 minute walk to the beach . While the house is located quite close to another house, the backyard is private and provided a nice gas fire pit as well as a bbq. The host and booking service very quick to reply and were friendly and helpful. The listing includes coin operated laundry - note this means a laundromat in tofino

    We loved our stay in beautiful Tofino. Built and beautifully maintained by its owners (who live next door), it is perfectly located, just on the edge of Tofino. Wonderfully quiet, you are surrounded by trees but very close to beaches. A short (2 min) walk away is a well equipped store and a lovey local cafe with excellent home bakes. We would have loved to stay longer!

    Forest Edge Cottage is absolutely lovely - quiet and peaceful. It has little touches that make it feel like you are staying in a friend’s house rather than a rental property. The kitchen has everything you need. I would definitely stay here again.

    A well-located cozy cottage near a few beaches, a short drive or bike ride away from Tofino and not to far from Pacific Rim National Park. There's even a coffee shop, Tofitian café, a few minutes walk away! It was a perfect place to call home while we explored the many trails, beaches and even Ucluelet for a day. We would definitely stay here again when we make our way back to Tofino.
