Fun in the Sun

The Shell House was a nice place to stay. We were a short walk to the beach and to the end of the island to watch the sunset. We took my 95-year-old mother, and the town of Sunset was more than happy to provide us a wheelchair that would go on the beach. They dropped it off and picked it up. We had no problems at the cottage. Nice quiet neighbors. Nice place and easy access!

The pictures on the website don’t do the home justice. It’s truly beautiful inside, with a new couch, screened in porch, nice sized kitchen, comfortable beds, 5 minute walk from the beach.
