One of the best house rentals we have ever had! Great location, incredible views,well stocked, with incredible decoration s. Beds are very comfortable

Not a thing

Breakfast was good, the view was beautiful, the food was delicious.

House was great. Close to the beach and fantastic dining. Nicely furnished and comfortable. Everyone has a great time. The yard was nice, private and well equipped. We hope to return in the future.

The town of Shelter Cove is gorgeous. We were only there one night, but we made multiple trips to the beach and saw a whole slew of wildlife (foxes, quail, deer). The house was okay - there was plenty of space to park in front of the house, and the kids enjoyed exploring the deck and yard.

Instead of providing check-in instructions through Booking, the host asked for my e-mail address. I sent my e-mail address in advance (although that seemed shady), but when I arrived, I realized no one was there to let me in and I'd received no instructions via Booking or e-mail. When I called the host, instead of telling me the door code, she e-mailed me a PDF that ostensibly had the door code, but wouldn't open on my phone. When I called again, she finally told me how to get in. Given that Shelter Cove is in the middle of nowhere and I wasn't sure the hotels had vacancies, I didn't feel like I could complain about the ridiculous check-in process, but it made me anxious to realize we would have been out of luck if I hadn't had cell reception when we arrived. The house has two floors, and the rickety spiral staircase to get down to the primary suite was not safe for children, so most of our group stayed on the main floor. Most of the house seemed clean when we arrived, but after my baby dropped her pacifier under the couch in the bedroom, I discovered that the couch had probably not been vacuumed under in years. Check-out was confusing. I called the host to let her know we'd left the house, but she apparently added me to a conference call with someone having an unrelated conversation and then tried to ask me questions about my stay while this other person was yammering away at twice her volume. I repeated "We've left" and hung up. I was eventually able to open the mysterious PDF on my computer. Apparently, the reason the host was so reluctant to just message me the door code was because she wanted to let me know about her direct-booking website. The rest of the document was the list of chores we were supposed to do before checking out - for a place that charges so much per night, that list was excessive. I look forward to visiting Shelter Cove again, but I would not stay anywhere managed by this host.

Location, view, garden, comfortable bed.

Hot tub needs a little work.

The hottub out back and the house itself were beautiful.

The laundry room was piled with dirty laundry. All the bathrooms had wet used linens strewn about. Clearly no cleaning services between us the previous few guests, and we didn’t even arrive until 10pm! No excuse, it was disgusting to have to hunt for fresh linens in the closets (as even some of the folded ones in the closet were stained and gross). The front porch had trash almost blocking the front door. The host didn’t send us the door entry code until 8pm (only an hour before we lost cell phone service!!)

Beautiful interior design and art

Bath water was cold … And thermostat didn’t work well … I was cold the whole time
