Orca Cabin I West Coast 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. two-level log cabin is custom designed to capture the best vistas of the inlet and harbor, making it a peaceful oasis surrounded by nature.

The cabin features one cozy bedroom with a queen bed, a loft with two single beds, and a pullout couch in the living room, comfortably accommodating up to 4 guests. The well-equipped kitchen includes all the essentials for preparing your meals, while the heated floors add warmth and comfort throughout the main living area. Step outside to the spacious, covered private deck, perfect for relaxing with a full-size gas BBQ for outdoor cooking.

With heated tile floors, cozy seating, and modern amenities such as cable television and Wi-Fi, Orca Cabin is ideal for unwinding after a day of exploration. This cabin is one of 4 cabins surrounded by over an acre of private property, offering a peaceful, forested setting with stunning views of the mountains, and ocean. Located on the last property before 30 acres of island forest leading to the open ocean toward Barkley Sound.

The property is teeming with wildlife—daily visits from eagles, sea lions, otters, seals, and occasional sightings of killer, humpback, and gray whales. Keep your eyes peeled for the resident deer family that frequently grazes near the cabins.

Orca Cabin is just a short walk to Ucluelet’s town center, kayak tours, fishing charters, and the world-renowned Wild Coast Trail. Whale and wildlife tours are also easily accessible, offering you the chance to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of this stunning region.

Come experience the magic of Orca Cabin—your perfect home base for exploring the wild west coast.

Orca Cabin

Cabin was great and just as described in the listing, location was very quite but also close to all amenities. We had three adults in our group and a small dog, the cabin was comfortably spacious enough for us all and very well equipped. Would love to come back some day.

Birthday get away

This property was the perfect place to spend a weekend to celebrate my wife's milestone birthday with our son and daughter-in-law. Only criticism would be the need for more glassware. Super quiet, clean and the property management was very attentive to make sure our stay was enjoyable.

Ucluelet Cabin by the Water

Great spot in Ucluelet, close (2 minutes drive) to everything in Ucluelet, restaurants, grocery store, hiking trails and sunset viewing beaches! Cabin was clean and well kept, great patio for morning coffee to listen to sea lions, eagles and loons. Very peaceful! Loft worked great for teenage kids and beds were all very comfortable. Much better than staying at a hotel when you need a little extra space for kids. Definitely would stay here again!

Traveled from Wisconsin and Colorado to run the Napa Marathon. Accommodations for 5 were perfect and had an extra bedroom besides. Weather was not as expected but that’s Mother Natures fault. Would definitely use again!!

Amazing Mini Honey Moon

The cabin is adorable. Absolutely perfect.perfect for just my husband and I but more than spacious enough to bring our kids with the beds upstairs. Extremely clean! The kitchen was well equipped, and had everything you need. Love it being close to town but far enough away. We ended up getting snowed in by a freak storm and were even offered and Xtra free night do to bad road conditions conditions,power outage ect. The cabin was equipped for such a situation. Was extremely impressed. 100% recommended and we will be going back.

nice little cottage, great location

heated floors are great, stairs not so much. they are steep and narrow for adults but given the footprint of the cottage, that is as good as it gets. appliances, utensils all good. TV might be a bit difficult to watch due to angle and location but we did not really watch any TV. Very clean, quality linens. Quick and efficient management responding to concerns right away. great location. we loved the place, would rent again if headed this way.

Dark and Stormy Christmas

Christmas has become my least favourite holiday since my dad died 2 years ago, but getting away to Ucuelet to Orca Cabin was spectacular. Even if it was very dark, stormy and the power went out. It's the west coast so it is totally expected. Orca Cabin was fully prepared, flashlights, cozy heated floors, all the cooking necessities, blankets and a super luxurious comfy bed made the trip blissful. Didn't even leave the cabin till the morning of check out we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this property made Christmas bearable again ;)

A gem of a place!

While not a huge cabin, it fit our needs perfectly! It was very clean and well supplied. It was quiet and peaceful (we were greeted by a deer on our arrival). We would come again!

Entspannte Tage

Die Hütte liegt sehr ruhig und dennoch fußläufig zur Hauptstraße von Ucluelet. Die Betten und die Dusche waren sehr gut. Das Geschirr hätte sauberer sein können und etwas mehr Teile wären auch gut gewesen.
