The Cougar Den

Positive: Large, with great views, artfully decorated. Equipped with everything you might need. Short walk to the ocean, and downtown. The staff were very responsive.

Splendid house, hosts and location close to atractions and points of interest. Positive: The excellent layout for two couples spending time together. Bright even on the darkest days of winter thanks to the multiple skylights and big windows with water and mountains views. Plenty of kitchen gadgets, cooking books and spices to get you started on a culinary adventure. Great communication with the hosts, even during an unexpected power outage, which landed us with a great happy hour visit to Ombre Restaurant which is within walking distance to Downtown Tofino and the house itself. Negative: No negatives here

Easy walk to and from town. Beautiful home with tons of light and open, natural feel. Host very responsive. Listing on VRBO did not disclose there is a tenant living in the basement so you don’t have the house to yourself. Also does not disclose quiet hours. Would be helpful to also add a host book with WiFi code, but our 5G worked fine. Also VRBO has listed as 1 bedroom, but it has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. Some work to do to communicate expectations, but I’m sure that will come with time. Would still recommend for quiet retreat.
