Perfect Getaway
Friends from separate areas of California convened in Shelter Cove for a girls trip. Waterfall cove house was wonderful. The pictures don’t do it justice in that it doesn’t show the landscaping (someone is obviously a plant lover) and the wonderful, sometimes quirky, decorating details. The space was cozy and soooooo quiet. From sitting on the back deck by the fire watching the sunset to having morning hot beverages on the upper deck or just watching a movie on the big soft sofa waterfall cove fit the bill after a day exploring the tidepools and redwoods.

Great stay on the lost coast
House is great for people and pets. Completely fenced in yard was great for the dog and our piece of mind. Great deck with firepit in the treetops. Kitchen is top of the line and great for large families. Great communication with owners. 55 and sunny, couldn't ask for a better day!

My family stayed for the Thanksgiving holiday and everyone was so pleased with this stay! Such a comfortable cozy private spot next to the ocean. Waves and seals heard from the yard. The updated kitchen was lovely. Beautiful dog friendly grounds. We felt lucky to be there!

Enchanted Cottage
This was our second time staying here and we loved it just as much as the first time. The location of this property is the best in Shelter Cove. It's a perfect getaway from the city. We love all the plants this house has as well as the layout of the front and back yards. We will be back again at this house for sure.

Great views, quiet
This is a great place to stay! The kitchen is amazing! We appreciated how the property is back away from most of the other properties, with lots of nice trees. Evenings were cooler at times, so we were able to fire up the wood stove. We would definitely stay here again.

Nice fairy tale home
We loved the stay here ! Beautiful home and comfy stay. Very relaxing and chill environment . We were there on 4th of July weekend and a mountain lion ju Led fence but my Belgian Mal service dog scared it away. There was a black bear roaming around too and deer . Love the beach view and trees . Seriously one of my fave place I’ve been to. The road a bit rough on brakes but you get used to the drive after a few times. Thank you so much for having us .

Relaxing, quiet, beautiful place
This is a lovely house - great location that offers privacy, calm, views of the ocean, and nicely planned relaxation spaces both indoors and outside. Wonderful kitchen - easy to cook in! Comfy beds, good living room seating for conversation or watching TV, deck upstairs and patio off the kitchen with fire pit. Really lovely!

Perfect retreat
We loved staying here and our dog did as well. The fully fenced in yard let him roam the whole property. It is a very peaceful place to stay with great vibes in the home. Was able to hear the seals early in the morning. We love how secluded the house is and brought all of our own food as things are expensive there at the little store. We are looking forward to staying there again.

The perfect place for a quiet family getaway.
This house is the perfect "cabin in the wilderness" surrounded by beautiful trees, flowers and landscaped beauty. The extra bathroom on the 2nd floor was a godsend!

Great memories!
Initially we booked for 10 days, but after spending some time here, we extended it two more days. The house is fantastic, much larger inside than what appears on the site photo. I'm a fisherman, and brought my boat to use out on the ocean. After the first day backing it in and making sure of the track, it fit nicely along side the house on the south side. There is a turn out for smaller boats just off the driveway on the west. The house is stocked exceptionally well, meaning towels, ample bedding, even spices, cooking wares, coffee pot, toaster, microwave, and one of the most fantastic stoves that you can cook on. The deck is awesome at night for views of the sunset to the west, exceptional space for a dog if you have one. Celeste and Eric are the best, always responsive, ensuring all is good, and quick for answers and tips on the local places to go. The landscaping is amazing, lilies and other flowers are in bloom right now, which adds to the view. The entire property is fenced off with a mesh type of fencing, keeping out the big critters. We had a black bear view us outside the fence, but ran off when we spotted it one night with some friends. If you are a fisherman, this place is the bomb. My girlfriend caught so many fish, she has a permanent smile on her face. The local cleaning station down at the launch ramp is well kept, and cleaned everyday, one of the best I've seen for a public maintained station. Salmon bite was slow, but rockfish and ling cod were amazing. There is a tractor launch that launches your boat for a fee of $40.00 a day. Small boats can be launched on the ramp, but make sure you have waders, it gets shallow at low tide. Local bait shops have well stocked baits and ancillary tackle. Watch the weather, wind and swell forecast, some days were really bad and small craft warnings were out. We will be back next year. I know why they call this the Lost Coast.
