About this property

Ocean Vista Getaway Walk to Beach, Marina, Lighthouse & Brewery, Sleeps 8

This charming home (circa 2005) sits across the street from the Shelter Cove Golf Course and airport, and boasts a clear view of the Pacific Ocean.

Pets are welcome but a maximum of two only.

Pilots, take note. This Shelter Cove getaway is a short walking distance from the airstrip’s south end, and planes parked there can easily be seen from the house.

Our three story chalet has a family/TV/game room and a garage on the ground floor; kitchen, living and dining room along with two bedrooms, a den, full bath, laundry, and pantry, on the main floor. A full size washer and dryer, an extra fridge, and ping pong table are located in the garage. The house is also equipped with a outside shower, perfect for guests returning from the beach.

The well-equipped kitchen will make any cook happy. The pantry provides storage for guest food and houses small appliances. Also, a reverse osmosis drinking water system is handy at the sink.

The primary suite, on the third floor, has a separate bath, cathedral ceiling, and balcony that overlooks the main floor.

You’ll enjoy the oceanview from the front deck or indoors by the fireplace. Sunlight floods the living area which boasts a 22-foot ceiling. The bedrooms stay comfortably cool and dark in the back of the home.

The den fashioned with a queen sleeper sofa also serves as a cozy reading nook. Other beds include two California kings and one queen.

Nearby amenities include: Shelter Cove RV Campground Store & Deli (0.25 mile), Shelter Cove General Store (2.3 miles), Delgada Pizza and Bakery, Mi Mochima Venezuelan Restaurant, and the Gyppo Ale Mill.

Scenic nearby destinations include Cape Mendocino Lighthouse and Black Sands beach. Readers will discover local authors’ books at the local gift shop next to the General Store.

Smoking and parties are not allowed. Thank you for respecting the quiet, peaceable nature of our neighborhood.

We hope you love the cove and enjoy your stay at Deer View Chalet as much as we do!

We have rented this house for three consecutive years. It’s very reasonably priced, and a great location. We’ll book it again next year. The house does have stairs if that’s a problem for you. Ocean, airport, wildlife, and golf course views without being on the main road. Very quiet and peaceful!!

Spacious, clean, and good location

Our stay was great and pretty much exactly as described on the listing. Amazing ocean view. Only drawback was that the downstairs area smelled strongly of new paint, but I imagine that will subside over time. Highly recommend!

Beautiful view even off the coast

We had the easiest time coming & going that we almost regret not spending more time in the home. We had everything we needed and had zero complaints.My children loved the lower level entertainment room while the parents were able to have some peace and quiet upstairs.Will definitely look forward to staying again the next time we visit!

Shelter Cove and the Lost Coast

Spent a few days at this lovely property with three friends while doing some hikes on the Lost Coast. Very comfortable accommodations that worked perfectly for our group. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Large windows provided views of the ocean and the resident deer population. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Fourth of July Family Vacation

Beautiful home, nicely furnished with comfortable beds, Everything we needed was there! Close walk to the beach, tide pools, restaurants and store. Comes with a great ping pong table that we enjoyed! The communication with the owners was excellent! We would rent this place again in a heartbeat! Had a wonderful time hiking, playing golf, fishing, riding bikes, playing cards at night and reminiscing when we lived here in the summers in the 70’s and 80’s so my husband could fish commercially for salmon. This place and the owners exceeded our expectations!

Ocean adventure

We’ve been visiting Shelter Cove since the 90’s. We normally fish for salmon, bottom fish and crab. Fishing is always good and we always leave with ice chests full of goodness. This year was no acceptation,accept for salmon. My grandkids always enjoy tide pooling and they enjoyed some nice low tides. Golf was fun as well. Shelter Cove is just a great place to vacation. The house was right in the middle of everything and very comfortable for everyone.

We come to Shelter Cove every year for the 4th of July and have stayed at various rental homes over the last 5 years. This by far was the best one for the price, location and the house itself. It was super comfortable and clean and had everything we could possibly need. We will definitely stay here every time we come to the cove to visit. Thank you

Awesome property in great location

Fantastic property in great spot near the action in Shelter Cove. Great communication with DG and very clear house instructions (especially check in). House was in immaculately clean condition. We loved the set up, views, and modern appliances in the main social space of the house. It is a short walk to the brewery and other attractions in Shelter Cove. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful Get Away on the CA Lost Coast

This place was wonderful for our family on our trip to the Avenue of the Giants (Giant Redwoods). The views were incredible and the house had a little bit of everything for everyone. Plenty of room for our family (4 adults & 2 young children) to spread out and come together. It was walking distance to the local brewery/restaurants/market, which was a huge plus for us after the long drive up. If we ever find ourselves headed up to the Lost Coast again (and I'd love to since it should be a "California Bucket List" item for everyone), I would 100% stay here again. The Host was wonderful in their communication and we had everything we needed. Our family who had traveled in from out-of-state were blown away with how wonderful this magical little town and this great home. Thank you for letting us stay here!
