Orca Cabin I Wild Pacific Trail I Pets I Big Beach
Orca Cabin: A Secluded Wilderness Retreat with Ocean Views
Nestled on over an acre of private, forested land, Orca Cabin offers the perfect getaway, blending tranquility with breathtaking views. This charming 400 sq. ft. log cabin is custom designed to capture the best vistas of the inlet and harbor, making it a peaceful oasis surrounded by nature.
Inside, the cabin features one cozy bedroom with a queen size bed plus a pull-out sofa bed (double size) in the living room. It comfortably accommodates up to 3 adults, or a small family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children). The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare meals, and heated floors add warmth and comfort throughout the main living space. Step outside to your covered private deck, complete with a full-size propane BBQ — the perfect spot to relax after a day of adventure.
Orca Cabin is one of four cabins on the property, offering a quiet, forested setting while still being just a short walk to town. You’ll be staying on the last property before 30 acres of island forest, which opens toward the rugged coastline and Barkley Sound.
Wildlife is abundant here — guests often spot eagles daily, along with sea lions, otters, and seals, and occasionally killer whales, humpback whales, or gray whales. Keep an eye out for our resident deer family that frequently grazes near the cabins.
You’re also within walking distance of kayak tours, fishing charters, whale & wildlife tours, and the world-renowned Wild Pacific Trail.
Come experience the magic of Orca Cabin — your cozy home base for exploring the wild West Coast.
Important Notes before booking: Guest Limit: Due to the cabin’s compact 400 sq ft layout, it’s ideal for up to 3 adults, or a small family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children). To access the loft area you will need to climb a steep ladder, so it is not ideal for young children or those with mobility issues. EV Charging: There is a Level 2 Tesla charging station on-site, shared among four cabins. Laundry: Please note the cabin does not have a washer and dryer. However, a laundromat is conveniently located nearby. Waterfront Access: While the cabin itself is not directly on the waterfront, there is a small waterfront area just a few steps away where you can enjoy views of wildlife and passing boats. It’s located to the left of the main house. Group Bookings: For larger groups, Eagle Cabin is situated on an acre of land along with three other cabins—Sitka, Nootka, and Orca—and the main house where the owners reside. Together, the cabins can accommodate up to 16 guests. If you’re interested in booking all the cabins for your group, please contact Tofino Vacation Rentals directly. Dogs: We allow 1 dog. Dogs must be in a crate while left alone at the property. Sorry, no cats allowed!
Booking Policies: Cancellation Policy: A 30-day cancellation notice is required for a full refund. No Refunds: Cancellations made without the required 30 days notice will not be eligible for a refund. July to August: A 3-night minimum stay is required, with all bookings arranged consecutively to avoid gaps. 2 night min. outside of July and August Canadian Statutory Holidays: A minimum stay of 3 nights is mandatory. Quiet Hours: Strict Quiet Hours: 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM We ask that you respect our neighbors by keeping noise to a minimum during these hours. Enjoy your stay, but please ensure that outdoor noise is kept low after 10:00 PM.

Clean, quiet, amazing!
We were here for 3 nights at the end of the year. Everything was perfect, the house is clean, warm and comfortable.
Danielle is welcoming and ready to help if needed.
We will be back.
Absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin. Very clean and well supplied, we had everything we needed to cook for ourselves. Close to beautiful beaches and stunning wildlife, and the cabin itself is warm and cosy, such a great space. The host was excellent, really kind and helpful, very efficient and told us everything we needed to know in good time. Perfect!
