We enjoyed the view, the patio was a nice place to relax. A walking trail led from the complex out to the beach in Craig’s Bay. We did not use the pool, hot tub or the pickle ball courts.

We had a wonderful and relaxing time at Pacific Shores. We enjoyed waking up to the view and accessing all the amenities. It was really great being close to the pickleball courts and being able to rent out kayaks for free. Greg is a wonderful host. He checked in often to make sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful respite for a week long stay. Clean, spacious, quiet, well appointed condo with plenty to do nearby. Great communication with Host Greg. The view windows and great patio look out right onto the bay and estuary, and we found many wonderful places to walk close by. Can’t wait to return!

A few things needed attention, but minor. Certainly not impacting our stay. Overall an excellent place with a great host. My wife left a few informative notes to Greg, but again minor things that he should know because we really appreciated his place. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for the kind words and high recommendation! I’m so glad to hear that you and your wife had an excellent stay and enjoyed the place overall. I will modify the welcome information to add that I turn off the fireplace in the unit in July and August as even the pilot flame adds a bit of heat in the summer. I know you had a couple of cooler days and would have liked to use the fireplace but cool days in July and August are rare. You were excellent renters and I appreciate how thoughtful you are and would love to get the opportunity to host you again.

Greg's place was great. It was clean and well equipped for a week's stay. The creekside view was very relaxing. We enjoyed the pool and both the indoor and outdoor hot tubs. Greg was very accessible and accommodating. We would definitely consider staying here again.

The unit was really nice, very clean, and had a comfortable King size bed. The kitchen area was well stocked with cooking supplies, nice to cook meals in, the dining area inside and on the patio was really good. The bathroom was spacious and very clean. The washer and dryer were nice to have in the unit. The bed on the pull out couch could be replaced, very firm mattress and lumpy. Hot tub area was great, water nice and hot, jets were powerful. Waterfront area was great to explore, we would have liked access to kayaks but were told only on the weekends in June, just be aware of that when booking as this has changed from 2 summers ago. We have stayed 3 times at Pacific Shores and enjoyed the resort once again! The owner was great at meeting our needs and was easy to reach:)

Thank you so much for coming back to stay at Pacific Shores, and I’m thrilled to hear you enjoyed the clean, comfortable space, the well-stocked kitchen, and relaxing in the hot tub. I really appreciate your feedback and will talk to guest services about the kayak schedule update. I agree summer starts when school ends and fully agree that Kayaks should be available daily after the last weekend in June. Thanks for being such wonderful, frequent guests and for taking the time to share your review and post lovely photos. We’d love to host you for visit number four anytime!

We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely book this condo again! We are a family of 4 (2 teen daughters who slept on the pull out couch). The large windows and views of the forest and bay were beautiful, and the entire property exceeded our expectations.We loved being able to walk down to the beach each evening to watch the sunset. The condo was spotless, well-equipped with everything we needed, and felt like a home away from home. The host was also very responsive and answered my question quickly.The resort amenities were fantastic. There are two hot tubs —one designated for families with kids and another with a lovely waterfall. The indoor pool was clean, and we really enjoyed having access to the pickleball courts, fire tables on the common decks over looking the ocean , and shared BBQs.The location was perfect: peaceful and quiet, yet just a short drive to grocery stores, restaurants, local beaches, and other attractions. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

The Pacific Shores Resort is in a very scenic and serene area. About the only thing we heard were the birds singing. We were also fortunate that the condo we were in had a front row seat to the Craig Bay tidal patterns. The grounds themselves were well maintained.Our condo was spacious and quite well equipped. The owner was very easy to deal with; and kept us well informed in a timely manner.The bottom line is that we would not hesitate to rent at Pacific Shores once again; and you should not either.Larry
