    Welcome to the house of concrete dreams! This place is so new, it hasn't even heard of the pandemic yet! The house faces south and gets so much sunlight that your tan will need a tan. The walls are 12 inches thick, so you won't hear a peep from the outside world. It's like having your own private castle, but with better weather! You'll be able to hear the waves below, but you won't have to worry about them soaking your socks.



    As you enter, you'll notice the patio to the right, where you can work on your tan without even leaving the house! If you get bored with that, take the stairs up to the 4th level, where you'll find a movie theatre/game room that's perfect for those who want to relax or channel their inner gamer. There's a chalkboard for the kids, a ping pong table for the competitive, and a 130-inch 3D/HD screen with immersive surround sound for those who want to experience movies like they're in the movie themselves! There's even a second 65-inch TV so you can watch two games at once. This room can even sleep up to six people, so it's perfect for slumber parties or when the in-laws come to visit.



    On the third level, you'll find the great room, which overlooks the lush green vegetation from the wetland that extends to the back of the property. The custom-made desk made from a walnut slab is perfect for any work you need to do during your stay, but let's be real, you're on vacation, so work can wait! The room has an open, light, and grand feel to it. The master bedroom on this level has a king-size bed and a couch that opens into a queen bed, making it the perfect place to kick back and relax. The bathroom ensuite in the master has a soaker tub, his and her sinks, and a large walk-in shower with a multi-soaker shower.



    On the second level, you'll find the great room and kitchen, which extends into the great room, where you'll find a massive island that's perfect for watching the chefs cook the fresh catch of the day. With over 20 seating spots, you can have your own private feast or host a party! There's also a covered balcony where you can BBQ and enjoy the views of the forest.



    If you're feeling creative, head down to the art room and paint some rocks or make a shell board. If you're feeling a little less creative, head over to the bunk room, where you can catch up on your favorite shows or movies on the 55-inch TV. The room has two bunk beds (full on the bottom and twin on the top) and a sliding door that leads you to the backyard.



    All in all, this house is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy some much-needed relaxation. So what are you waiting for? Book your stay now and experience the house of concrete dreams for yourself!





    Top things to do in Shelter Cove with some silly humor :)



    Visit the redwoods, and make sure to drive through the tree – it's like a car wash for your vehicle, but with trees instead of suds.



    Black Sand Beach – perfect for romantic walks, but don't even think about taking a dip unless you want to be a human popsicle.



    Shelter Cove Beach – drive on the beach like a boss, just make sure to check the tide chart first or you might end up sinking like the Titanic.



    Malcolm Park – come for the lighthouse, stay for the seals, and have the chance to snatch some abalone shells without making any marine life enemies.



    Golf – tee off with some old clubs that probably date back to the Jurassic era, but don't worry, they still work (kind of).



    Biking – ride your mountain bike through Paradise Park and embrace your inner daredevil by tackling some obstacles (just make sure your health insurance is up-to-date).



    ATV – for those who like to live dangerously, ride your ATV on the beach like you're auditioning for the next Fast and Furious movie (cue epic music).



    Fishing – catch a fish, or two, or ten, but beware of sharks – they like to photobomb your fishing pictures.



    Whale Watching – watch whales migrate and be amazed by their majestic spouts, just don't get too close or they might flip your boat like a pancake.



    Watch the planes land – experience the thrill of watching private planes land without a tower or monitoring system, and cross your fingers that none of them miss the runway.



    Gyppos – enjoy some brews and live music while playing cornhole and watching planes take off and land, but beware of the occasional wayward golf ball or plane.



    Fish Bowl – fuel up with coffee and salmon bagels before venturing out to sea, and don't forget to chat with Autumn, the local expert on all things Shelter Cove.



    Delgato Pizza – order some pizza for takeout or dine outside while admiring the beautiful surroundings, just don't let the seagulls steal your food.



    Sky's – indulge in some mouth-watering Thai food while taking in the breathtaking views, and bring your own booze to save some dough. I think this one closed after COVID. Darn!



    Mi Mochimo – try some unique and delicious Venezuelan dishes on the deck while enjoying the sea breeze, and don't be surprised if you start speaking Spanish by the end of your meal.
