Room was spotless! Short notice rental for Memorial weekend was reasonably priced. This was a small "motel room" so housekeeping was available to bring extra towels and such. Located in very nice small rv park on the river and public boat launch. No frills nothing fancy but clean and quiet. I do wish they had a bigger bed (seemed like only a full size maybe queen) but had bathroom with a shower, cold fridge, tv, and a couple of closets.
It was clean and efficient. Quiet and off the beaten path right on the river. Thank you about the shots in thereVery nice one room perfect for the two of us. Angie was great to work with and very helpful. Thank you for the stay.

Located in a fairly quiet RV park/resort. Nearby access to decent boat ramp. Room was very minimal without many basics like pillow cases, paper towels, shampoo or extra towels etc. The shower was nice and hot and the AC unit kept things comfortable. Coffee pot had mold growing in it and no trash bags. Lots of other dogs in the park and neighborhood...
Memorial weekend is always our traditional first fishing trip and our stay at Shell Harbour was great!! The cabin was clean and the on-site manager was very helpful and courteous. The cabins are located in a great, quiet spot with access to the St. John's river, so everything we needed was close at hand.. We will be staying again!!!
Very nice staff and guest. All really good people. We will definitely be going back
