  My husband and I had a wonderful vacation in Shelter Cove. The home is just stunning. It is located literally 10 feet from the ocean! We sat out on the deck with our glasses of wine looking for whales. What fun! We visited the tide pools, read books, and hiked a bit. At night we enjoyed watching movies with the door open - listening to the waves crash and the fog horn blow. Our stay was very relaxing which was just what we needed. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. We will definitely be back!

  Did not have live t.v.. Basically had no decent restaurants and were not open very often. Deck furniture consisted of plastic chairs. The house was not very clean. The nearest grocery store was forty-five minutes away over the mountain. Had to work on the toilets to get them to work as well as the front door because the door handle kept falling off or would not lock. I think this place was mis-represented and was a total waste of money. The worst vacation we have ever had!

  Owner response: We have had nothing but the highest reviews over the past years. Unfortunately this guest failed to realize that this property is located in a small ocean community. There are no Costco or AppleBees in Shelter Cove. Sadly, I think he had some other personal issues that were a factor in his stay. He was offered a full refund but declined and choose to stay for the week.

  This home was wonderful. Clean, comfortable, and an excellent ocean front location. I loved listening to the crashing waves at night. My family and I loved watching the seals swim in the waves while we were eating breakfast. The tidal pools were filled with extraordinary life and provided hours of exploring. The redwoods were breathtaking. It was a short walk to seal rock, where we saw 40 white and black seals basking in the sun. Blacksand beach was very close and was drapped in an end-to-end rainbow. The house was very relaxing. It was a seemless checkin and checkout. The owner was very kind to explain to bring all the food and supplies necessary as the access drive into the cove is very long and curvy. This is a beautiful area and we enjoyed all of this in December!

  We stayed in late July 2009. The temps in shelter cove were 70's while the temps on the other side of the mountain more inland were 100's. Shelter cove stays COOL! Our kids loved this home and were very sad to leave. From the visiting deer and seal out back, to the pool table and darts inside, they loved every minute. This mom appreciated the well appointed kitchen! All amenities were top notch and this home provided easy access to the Redwoods and the Black Sands beach (which is truly "black". A unique and "moon" like experience.) Would come back in a heartbeat if I could.

  What a beautiful house! My husband and I visited beautiful Shelter Cove in mid September. The drive from Highway 101 was incredibly beautiful. When we descended into the Shelter Cove area it was breathtaking. The pictures can't do justice to the beautiful unobstructed view of the rugged, rocky contours of the coastline that are so amazing from any view in the house. The house is exquisitely decorated.. The attention to detail in the interiors is striking. Throughout the length of the Shelter Cove coastline there are many park supported areas that jut out to offer great views of the mountains, seals and bird life. At the very end of the island we were excited to see 100s of sea lions congregated on a rock formation. Very beautiful. The hospitality of the owners was outstanding. Thank you!

  If you want a quiet, romantic getaway, or a relaxing family vacation, this is the place! Very tranquil and peaceful listening to the waves crash against the shoreline. Absolutely breathtaking sunsets! There is access to the beach within a short walk. Highly recommended.
