The Den Quality Goods & Refillery - Ucluelet, British Columbia

What an awesome store! It feels so lush, natural inside, nurturing energy. Love the emphasis on BC, Canada goods. Lots of natural products, cosmetics, haircare, cleaning products too. I love the mint brand, smells awesome. Fun decks of cards and books too. Glad I stumbled in.

This is an incredible store! Their products are top of the line. My fiance and I picked up a small jar of the seaweed detox for the bath. It was so amazing and effective in relieving pain and inflammation, I went back the next morning and bought two large jars. If you have rheumatoid arthritis, you should give the seaweed detox a try. They have so many nice cleaners and natural soaps; I'm thrilled that day ship because I don't live in Ucluelet... sadly.

The Den in the stunning ocean village of Ucluelet (known affectionately to locals as Ukee) on the west coast of Vancouver Island is an absolute delight to engage with & buy from. Indeed it is one of the most welcoming places I have stepped into. It is named perfectly — a den is the kind of place we love & it is not for nothing that the most comforting room in a home where we like to tuck ourselves into is called the den. Staff are charming & gracious in their interactions on the phone & in store. Staffers Nikki & Lexie are impressive, as the business with its focus of sustainability is inspiring. At its core it is a Refillery at which one can get refills for most of the wide range of products it stocks. The Den offers food stuff to cleaning to skin care & more. All are of quality & in line with its mission of sustainability. It opened five years ago & this past March co-owners, Diane & Kristen, opened another location in Tofino, just 26 miles north of Ukee. I was looking for the products created by the wonderful foragers, Forest for Dinner, which they carry. It also is an important stockist of cleaning products, which it supplies to the many B&Bs, which operate in these stunning ocean villages, & draw many visitors to it shores.
It delivers to customers once a week in the gracious way it does business across all fronts.

I discovered The Den products while staying at an Airbnb in Ucluelet. I also operate three short term rentals and wanted to carry a high quality, local bath product (we are in WA state). I ordered shampoo, conditioner and body wash - all in one-gallon sizes.

The products lasted me almost 9 months of nearly 100% occupancy. I was a little overwhelmed at my initial $ investment in product, but now that I see how long it lasts, I know that I would have "broken even" if I had purchased individual bottles of an inferior product. PLUS - not for nothing... refills are better for the environment.

The product is great - we use the Cedar and Sage scent and our guests (and we) love it! I look forward to taking a little road trip to get my gallon bottles refilled in the store, but until then, shipping is easy, convenient and FAST!

High quality personal care products. Some natural food items, candles and socks. This high quality small shop is a great stop in Ucluelet. The refill station is great for locals. Bring in your containers and get your soaps and body products refilled! Love the atmosphere of the shop a gem.

This was such a beautiful store, just packed full of the most beautiful and magical products! The staff who helped me out was beyond sweet and I felt just so taken care of. Such a great experience here!

I really love my local refillery (Nanaimo) so naturally I popped in to the den while on vacation. I had such a lovely visit to the tofino shop that I had to check out the larger store in Ucluelet the next day. The shops and staff are so welcoming and your products are beautiful. I love how conscious you are about actual sustainability. I do hope to see your brand down island someday but I’m certain I’ll be back to fill up on facial products when I’m back to the West Coast, Thanks!

Husband and I were staying at the Cabins at Terrace Beach. All the products in the cabin were so lovely and smelt Devine! Dish soap, shampoo and conditioner to hand wash! Label pointed me to the Den. We had to go!!!! We were greeted by friendly knowledgeable staff who pointed me to the right products! I bought myself the products that were in our cabin and I also got some Christmas gifts checked off my list!
