A Perfect Place to Stay
From our initial booking until we were just leaving to Return home, Pete was in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. Centrally located, the home was an ideal launching pad for us to explore Tofino and its surroundings. With plenty of rooms, a spacious kitchen and expansive deck, it left nothing to be desired. We highly recommend booking it for your own trip to Tofino.

This is our third (?) time staying at the Whale House (which is what we think it should be called). We keep coming back since it’s a perfect spot for a 2-family vacation. Love the hot tub and the well-stocked kitchen!

Thank you to Peter for a wonderful stay at this beautiful home in Tofino. The home is very comfortable and well-appointed for a vacation stay. Our group of family and friends had a wonderful time spotting an eagle, watching the stars, and having great meals on the deck. Could not have been better.

This was our second time staying at this property, Peter is very responsive, the house was clean and stocked with kid plates/bowls etc which was a great touch ( we had three young kids with us). great views of the water and walking distance to the brewery, distillery, and Fish Store where we got fresh crabs and scallops. We’ll definitely be back :)

Superb
6 of us stayed in this home for 3 nights and we thoroughly enjoyed everything about it. The house is very big and could have easily and comfortably accommodated at least one more couple. The location is wonderful as it is close to town (we walked to a restaurant for dinner) but very quiet and, of course, waterfront with superb views on Meares Island especially from the large hot tub. We made dinner twice and found the kitchen to be well-equipped. We would certainly be happy to go back!

Ideal and Serene Tofino Getaway
This property is truly amazing - nestled in the privacy of a beautiful forest with outstanding views but within walking and biking distance to all the amenities. We enjoyed the hot tub, outdoor shower and great beach access for paddling in the bay. The kitchen is fantastic for cooking and socializing and the kids also enjoyed the TV room. Peter is a fantastic host and highly responsive. Thank you so much for hosting our family.

Perfect For a Family Christmas
My family and I stayed at this home over the holidays and we were so happy with the experience. The kitchen was SO fully stocked for preparing and serving Christmas dinner that my chef husband even impressed! The beds were cozy, we had plenty of firewood for a Christmas Day fire and we appreciated the mud room since it was a stormy few days. We loved that the brewery was across the street for a quick Boxing Day outing and we ended each evening with a dip in the hot tub before bed. This house has everything you could ask for and more!

Great house for a family gathering!
This is a great house for our large family. We love the large common areas but had good privacy in the bedrooms. The kitchen with central island is a great gathering spot. The master bathroom is wonderful. The house and furnishings are nicely maintained. You can walk into town from this house along the Tofino walking trail. We will be back!
