Halfmoon Cottage: Forest views, private hot tub

Halfmoon Cottage is self-catering and privately located on a 2.4 acre old growth forested property bordering Pacific Rim National Park, within walking distance of Florencia Bay and Halfmoon Bay via the Willowbrae Trail. This is a place to unplug and reconnect with nature and decompress from the busyness of life.

All windows frame in the beautiful old growth forest, making this cottage very peaceful. Featuring a beautifully hand crafted log staircase leading up to an open loft bedroom with a queen bed. The cozy living room has a queen size pullout couch that sleeps 2 comfortably. There is a private hot tub nestled in tall cedars & hemlocks. Halfmoon has a double slipper clawfoot tub (for 2), a stand up shower, antique-finish hardwood floors, cast iron fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling picture windows offering great views of the rainforest from all rooms.

About 5 minutes from the town of Ucluelet and a nice coastal drive to the world renowned beaches in the Pacific Rim National Park and the town of Tofino.

Perfect secluded cabin
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our honeymoon. The Half Moon cottage was so cute and cozy, and was the perfect place to come back to after days filled with adventure. The cabins are set far enough apart, that you don’t have to see or hear anyone if you don’t want to. The hosts were always quick to respond and gave excellent recommendations. We absolutely loved our stay, and would definitely book again!

Lovely Private Oasis
We had an amazing stay at this cabin tucked into the beautiful Ucluelet rainforest. The cabin itself is stunning and was exactly what we wanted for our getaway. The location is great - a short walk to the trailhead that leads to Florencia and Halfmoon Bays, 10min drive to Ucluelet, half an hour to Tofino. We will definitely be coming to stay again!

In love with Ucluelet
We’re sold. We’re sold on the peace and quiet that Ucluelet and the surrounding forests and beaches offer. We’re also sold on this cabin…views of nothing but forest, sounds that were all nature. We don’t have one complaint about our stay and will absolutely be back again. The cabin as it is is wonderful and then you add the little details: Salt spring soap products, a beer waiting for us. And, communication with the property management was seamless from start to finish. Wow, just wow.

Beautiful log cabin in a private and quiet location. Well-equipped kitchen and barbeque to be able to cook and bake "at home". Roomy yet cozy. Large TV with multiple streaming services. Huge bathtub indoors and jetted hot tub outdoors!

Perfect hideaway
Was perfect for what I wanted out of the vacay- a quiet place to contemplate, relax, enjoy nature and have a hot tub. It’s only 5min away from Ucluelet and about 30 to Tofino and both drives are easy and scenic. The cabin itself is exactly like it’s pictured. Only issue was that it had tons of spider webs when I got there and some dust, so looked like parts of the cabin hadn’t been touched/cleaned in awhile. It’s around the corner from a couple really nice trails to beaches/coves that were good for the dog and I to walk to (however, if you have an old dog like mine who can’t do stairs, be prepared, you’ll need to carry them then!). Overall would 100% stay again and hope to be back in the future with my partner. This time it was the dog and I and it was the perfect spot to sit, unwind, unplug and enjoy all that the area and nature has to offer.

Cozy Cottage in the Forrest
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Halfmoon Cottage. It was so peaceful there and the surrounding forrest was so tranquil. The hot tub was splendid as well. We enjoyed walking the Willowbrae trail down to the beach in the mornings. We also went to the Shelter in Tofino for dinner on one of the nights we were here (as recommended in the house guidebook). The food was absolutely amazing! We will definitely be coming back soon.

First VRBO Experience - PERFECT
Beautiful location. We were looking for a romantic getaway close to the ocean and this cabin offers exactly that. The cottage was gorgeous inside and out with a private (and quiet!) outdoor hot tub, surrounded by forest and underneath a pocket of stars. Only 2-3 minutes from town centre and 20 from Tofino, it was the perfect home-base away from home. This will be our go to rental for next winters relax and reconnect!

Cabin in the woods
Lovely property in the woods. Hot tub lid is not easy to move, hot tub also listing so is walkway to hot tub. Cabin needs to be cleaned of cob webs. This is a log cabin but some more time needs to be spent on cob webs. Oven would not light either. Pilot came on. Oven is old and Replacement should be considered. Place was super cute and cosy but for the price I think these items should be addressed.
