This house was so lovely! The house felt lived in in the best way. They provide you with everything you need to make yourself super at home. Unlike a lot of rental properties, the house was well stocked and location of items made sense so things are easy to find. The kitchen is very well stocked, has tons of cutlery and plates/ bowls plus kitchen utensils and gadets to cook sophisticated meals if thats your goal. The couches and beds are super comfy, and heating works very well. There are board games and brochures on the area which was great! One thing about Shelter Cove - if you have never been and are a little reckless with your research as I was - is that it's very sleepy and there are hardly any restaurants or cafes. When we visited (January 2022) there was only 1 restaurant open. This doesn't mean you shouldn't go - its peaceful, quiet, and stunningly beautiful! Just be prepared and bring things you anticipate needing. The general store is great, but doesn't sell hard liquor so plan accordingly : ) ##### Tess A. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ron A. 8 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy, comfortable and conveniently located More than a house, the property felt like a cottage. Lots of nice touches and attention to detail making the atmosphere warm and welcome. All the amenities, and then some, made for easy cooking on our first night after discovering all restaurants were not open all day. There is a general store up the road which had great coffee, and lots of food items to make most of whatever you could want. This was our best vacation in the 3-4 years. The area is a gem if you like the coast, multiple trails for hiking, and a black pebble beach (no, we did see see any sand). The drive is worth it, wherever you are coming from. ##### Ron A.
