One of the advantages of staying at this Bungalow in this RV Resort is that its right across the street from a children's play lot. There's also a Laundry room with extra Restrooms with showers at the same site as the playground. Those restrooms with showers come in real handy after returning from the Beach.

Everything was exactly as described. Our family of 5 felt it was more than enough room. We loved the view off porch and the short walk to the beach!

This was my second time staying at the Seashell Shack. It is comfortable, has all the things we needed, and Scott communicates well. Those are all lovely and make it a great choice, what sets it apart, though, is the gorgeous view of the bay. Sitting on the spacious porch in a rocking chair, listening to the soft waves, and feeling the bay breeze is incredibly peaceful. Plus, just a short walk to the oceanfront! Would highly recommend to any and all!

Nice weekend getaway!

We enjoyed this tiny house for a quick Spring Break trip. Waking up to the views of the water was perfection! We highly recommend Baja, the restaurant next door, for dinner. Overall, this house was very clean & very updated; property manager Scott was great to work with.

This tiny house is in a great location; the bay views from the porch were stunning, and it was a short walk to the beach. The area felt safe, and the neighbors were all very friendly.The host was very responsive and sent all the info we needed ahead of time.The inside of the house was clean and well-appointed, but there were spiders everywhere. Most of them were on the outside, but a few came crawling out from cracks above the shower and from behind cabinets in the kitchen. The windows were covered in webs with giant spiders, and the porch furniture really needed a solid cleaning; the table, chairs, rockers, and railing were all covered in live spiders and their webs.Overall, the convenient location and stunning views made it worthwhile, but for the price we paid, we didn’t feel like the patio furniture should have needed such extensive cleaning for us to be able to make use of the outdoor space.

Response from VrboOwner on 3 Sept 2026
Thank you for your review and for taking the time to share your feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed the location, stunning bay views, proximity to the beach, and the cleanliness of the interior. We appreciate your honest feedback regarding the spiders and outdoor furniture. The porch and outdoor furniture were cleaned just a week prior to your arrival; however, because our property is located on a campground right next to a nature preserve, the local insect and spider population can return remarkably fast. That said, we completely understand your frustration and want our guests to enjoy the outdoor space without feeling like they need to clean it themselves. We will continue to address this with our cleaners to better improve the outside condition of our place. Thank you again for helping us improve, and we hope to welcome you back for an even smoother stay in the future!

We were looking for something last min for the three of us. Had never stayed in an RV or RV Park before. Our son, 10 years old, loved it. I would stay here again.

Respite Achieved

My best friend and I enjoyed our stay immensely. Hosts were generous and accomodating with requests and questions. The location is fantastic and the lodging is very comfortable. The loft and bedroom allowed us to both sleep comfortably as she likes the room warm and I like to freeze. My only suggestion is..if you use ubereats or instacart..provide the name of the resort as some drivers may have difficulty finding the place due to gps weirdness.
