In the sea of cougar dating sites, here’s a refreshing new site that may not be that big just yet but definitely looks promising. Whether you’re a cougar looking for dates or a cub looking for a cougar in your area, this is the place to start.

First Impression

One of the main reasons we like this dating site is the decent first impression you get once you sign up for Cougars Nearby. While it is as basic as it gets, with simple features and quite a stripped down design, this site is very functional and works without any hiccups. Everything runs smoothly to ensure you have fun and find some cool people through this Tinder-like site.

Design and Functionality

There’s really not much to say about the design of Cougars Nearby. It’s very minimal, but not in a fancy way. The best way to describe it would be – simple and unpretentious. Everything is designed to make your experience as quick and efficient as possible and there aren’t many aesthetic elements or embellishments that might distract you from what you’re here to do, or, even worse, slow down the process.

If the design is simple, the navigation of the site is even simpler, which is always a good thing. The site shows you a potential match, and you decide whether you like them or not. If you like a person and they like you back, you can message for free. When you first sign up for Cougars Nearby, you will receive a message explaining in a simple yet detailed manner everything there is to know about how it all works.

Features

The most important feature of Cougars Nearby is the system of matches. The website shows you people in your area who are up for meeting someone. You can see their profiles, look at the pictures and read their short bio or taglines, in case they decided to write any. You can then decide whether you like them or not, by clicking or tapping an X or a heart underneath their picture, just like swiping left or right on Tinder.

You can customize your profile as you like, put several different pics and adjust the account settings as well, such as turning the notifications on and off or deactivating the account without deleting it permanently. Everything is customizable but on the other hand there aren’t too many options, which may be a good thing or a bad thing, depending how you look at it. You can also opt for a VIP status, which allows you extra privacy, boosts your profile so you get the best picks and even undo any swipes you might have regretted.

If you really want to get the best possible experience that the dating site offers, definitely check out their free mobile apps for iOS and Android devices.

Members

As a new and growing dating website, Cougars Nearby doesn’t have a humongous membership base, but it looks like it’s growing steadily so you can expect more and more members to come in every day.

However, this doesn’t mean there isn’t a great variety here. Whether we’re taking about cougars or cubs, there is something for everyone here. People obviously want to look their best when they are looking for a date, and this dating site is no exception. There are a lot of really good looking people here. And most importantly, there are no creeps, spammers or trolls. Most of the members look like decent, nice or legitimately cool people looking for a date or a friendship.

The site does a great job at presenting the people – it’s always very easy to find out where someone’s from, how old they are and to see their additional pictures. The pictures are generally clear so you pretty much know exactly what you’re getting.

Closing Word

For a new and growing website, Cougars Nearby is doing a pretty decent job at connecting you with local cougars or cougar lovers. The mobile app is the best way to go, since you never know when you might find the perfect match. The site has a desktop option too, if that’s something you prefer. All in all, a nice little website that still has room for growth but for now definitely looks promising.

    The most important thing about a dating site is the search engine and options you can use to narrow down your selection. This is why CL works so great, it offers you a tone of options so you don’t end up with just a few profiles.

  2. Ron Waters | May 27, 2019

    I noticed that people are saying that the search engine is very important, but I think it’s not. It listed a lot of users for me, in fact, maybe too much users. I think profiles and honesty are more important. I registered as Waters69, hit me up 🙂

    If you don’t like to travel hours just to go on a date with a cougar, I would reccomend you this site. You just select your area and it lists you all cougars nearby, best site ever!

    These ladies really know what they want and they aren’t afraid to ask 😉 Love confident women and I’ve met more of them this summer on CN than ever before in my life.

  5. SamanthaX | November 2, 2018

    Mid-August is always a stressful time for me because I’m a teacher. I decided to register because I wanted to blow off some steam. Never expected to have such a great time day after day. I’m regularly chatting with 7 boys that make me feel so good about myself. The best decision I’ve made in a while!

  6. Kit Heath | February 11, 2018

    I’m really skeptical about this one. It doesn’t look real and no one replied to my likes, there are no matches for me and most of these women don’t look like cougars to me. Maybe I’ll try a 5 day trial and see if something changes

  7. Jobe Valdez | June 22, 2017

    Don’t waste your time, it’s not real you can see it from the get go! Profiles are fake and your free options are only for sending likes and stuff like that, no real chatting. You have to pay for that.
