Had a great time. House was well stocked with everything we needed. Loved the option of having our dog with us and the ping pong table gave lots of entertainment on the rainy days.

Great getaway on the coast.

Just had a fantastic stay in Shelter Cove. House was clean, well stocked with anything we may have needed, as well as well organized and labelled. We enjoyed walking around the neighborhood. Very short walk downhill to Black Sands Beach and amazing views overlooking the ocean in the evening. Woild recommend staying here.

Beautiful house with lots of space for everyone! The host was amazing and very quick to respond with any question or need. She went above and beyond after we accidentally left an expensive item at the home and she shipped it to us.

Wow where to even start! Everything from the first question I had till the day we checked out was absolute perfection. The home itself is so beautiful and well keep. Even the clear labels on the cabinets. Let's you know where everything is but looks so tasteful with the clear labels versus white. The decoration in the home were beautiful, the beds so comfortable, fun bathtub. Beautiful views from both outside deck area and upstairs deck area. They had beach towels available for use, a Bluetooth speaker to use, instructions for everything in the welcome book! Just every detail was paid attention to. Ive stayed a a fee places along the Ca coast. By far this was our favorite trip. Traveled with my husband, 2 kids and eldery mom. Was just perfect for us. We will definitely be back!
