This inn is beautiful and the oceanfront room was amazing. There aren’t many amenities and the internet was slow but the sights made up for it and after you go through that treacherous drive to get there it is nice to have a quiet place to rest. The bed was somewhat comfortable. The water pressure wasn’t great. There was one restaurant open the afternoon we arrived so there want much of a choice. The cafe attached to the inn had pretty good breakfast. I would stay there again.

Great seaside hotel

We used this hotel for the starting and stoping point of our 26-mile hike on the Lost Coast. It was a wonderfully charming spot with amazing views. The rooms were lean and well supplied, and the process was managed very well. We also had breakfast at the cafe after our hike, and we loved the food, coffee, and the service. Highly recommend.

There were no second locks on the door, and the slider door didn’t lock at all, safety concern. The property and view was beautiful! The room itself was clean and very nice! The coffee house below was phenomenal! The drive in and out will keep us away, sad but true. Also there was never a person in the office.

Fantastic Stay

Oceanfront Inn at Shelter Cove was the perfect place for us to stay in Shelter Cove. While the outside is unassuming, the inside was very nice and larger than expected with first rate ocean views. Convienent location with a cafe on the ground level that puts you within walking distance to the golf course and brewery. Would defenitly recomment.

The property needs repair. No screens on the windows or the sliding door so we could t leave them open without bugs. The furniture needs to be updated, and the appliances. The Wifi went out, so we had no phone or TV. Usually not a problem but we had come off of a backpacking trip and just wanted to veg out. The upside is that the cafe downstairs is AMAZING! Not associated, but check it out if you are in the area.
