We had an awesome stay at the property, views on both floors were incredible, we got lucky with the warm weather and calm seas. Spacious seating arrangements both inside and outside. The hot tub makes it feel like you’re part of the ocean. Took the kids to tide pools and rode the bikes around the neighborhood. Saw lots of wildlife and picked some wild black berries. Will be back.

This place is proably the best in Shelter Cove. Stayed here for almost a week with a group of friends for fishing. This place is big spacious clean and beautiful. 2 living rooms were a plus and a late evening dip in the spa after a long day of fishing and a big dinner! We are already looking forward to next year here again!!

Perfect Get-away

This was a our second time staying at this property and it did not disappoint! The house is beautiful and furnished with high end furniture and appliances (rare for a rental)! We spent entire days just staying at the property and enjoying the view, hot tub, wild life etc. The fireplace was perfect for the cool nights and the new back deck was our favorite place for stargazing and listening to the waves crashing in the back yard! Angelia was amazing with communications and information. She is extremely responsive. This property is our "go-to" spot for getting away from noise and decompressing. Shelter Cove itself is a gem that we hope does not change.
