Cedar Nest at Emerald Forest-S. Chesterman, BBQ | Cabin in Tofino
2 Bedroom Cabin in Tofino
Cedar Nest is a cozy post-and-beam cabin, hand-built with the creative spirit of the outer coast. Nestled into a sunny clearing within the coastal forest, it offers the perfect blend of comfort and nature. You’re just a 5-minute walk to South Chesterman Beach and 5 km south of Tofino—close to everything, yet peacefully tucked away. Simply beautiful!
Designed for a slower rhythm, the cabin has no TV, inviting you to trade screen time for birdsong, books, and the gentle soundtrack of the forest. Large windows frame moss-covered branches and filtered sunlight, bringing nature right into the living space.
A handcrafted staircase leads to the loft bedroom, where a comfortable bed sits beneath sloped wooden ceilings. Wake to soft morning light and rainforest views right from your pillow. Downstairs, the bright lounge area features wraparound windows, a simple couch/ daybed, and cozy reading nooks—perfect for relaxing with a cup of tea and a good book.
In true Tofino spirit, the cabin features an outdoor shower only—fully private, partially enclosed and covered yet open to the forest air. Rinse beneath the sky, surrounded by cedar, ferns, and fresh coastal scent. Many guests call it the highlight of their stay.
Whether you’re seeking quiet reflection, creative inspiration, or a rustic coastal getaway, this cabin offers an intimate retreat. Step outside your cabin where some sounds of the road can be heard and wander the forest path to your next adventure, listen to rain on the roof, and let nature set the pace.
