Perched up on a hillside overlooking the Pacific Ocean, this quiet home in Shelter Cove is a place to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of California's storied Lost Coast. Enjoy a deck that wraps around the house, providing you with gorgeous views of the water and incredible nightly sunsets.

This home sits in the heart of Shelter Cove, a tiny community on the remote and wild Lost Coast of Humboldt County. As the southern terminus of the Lost Coast Trail, Shelter Cove is a wonderful retreat for backpackers before or after their journey through the King Range National Conservation Area. You'll be only half a mile from Cove Beach, three-quarters of a mile from the Cape Mendocino Lighthouse at Shelter Cove, and a mile and a half from the Black Sands Beach Trailhead.

Begin each morning with coffee outside on the deck, breathing in the salty sea air and watching for passing whale spouts on the horizon. Inside, you'll find everything you need to prepare breakfast in the kitchen, including full-size appliances and a breakfast bar.

After a day of adventures, return to your home away from home and relax in the hammock with your favorite beach read. Gather around the telescope and see if you can spot any whales! As the evening winds down, take in the magnificent sunset and stargaze from the deck.

The home is simply furnished but equipped with every essential, including a washer/dryer for your swimsuits and hiking clothes, and a large smart TV to screen your favorite movies. Challenge your family to a game night with one of the provided board games.

Additional amenities include WiFi, a yoga mat, and beach towels.
