About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A petite retreat, Family/Pet friendly-Amazing view and location!

Now you don't have to book a whole house to accommodate a smaller crew. This charming little studio is perfect for a small family, or a group of friends. This unit is centered in the lower Cove, & within walking/riding distance of a 9 hole golf course, restaurants, galleries, beaches, and more! One of the best locations in Shelter Cove, sitting parallel to the airstrip, with an incredible ocean view. Equipped with a full kitchen, full bath, a deck with a BBQ, yard space and boat parking.

Great venue. Cozy. Clean.

Loved my visit to this venue as staying at one of the local Shelter Cove hotels, was over-priced from what it used to be. I will definitely plan my return to this property for my next trip to Shelter Cove.

Shelter Cove Convenience

My wife and I enjoyed a three night stay at the Comfort Cove VRBO in Shelter Cove California. The property was conveniently located near various eating establishments and a wonderful nature trail. This property met all our needs, and we wouldn’t hesitate recommending it to anyone considering a stay in Shelter Cove.

Gimme Shelter Eighteenth Annual Kayak Gathering

I was here for the Gimme Shelter Eighteenth Annual Kayak Gathering. The location was perfect. I used the oven to bake two native blackberry pies for the event potluck dinner. I parked my car with kayak on top in the provided parking area. It worked out well. I was able to rinse the salt water from my kayak gear with the host's permission after a successful (awesome) day fishing. I had a wonderful time.
