Artistic excellence- the perfect inspiration location
We absolutely loved our stay again this year at Seadance. It is the most gorgeous, clean, open, beautiful setting for artists to be inspired. We were able to paint 17 paintings, between the 5 of us, during our stay because the gorgeous views off the deck and nearby. Everything is so comfortable, and convenient. We left our hearts in Shelter Cove. I highly recommend staying here.
Our family had a wonderful stay at Seadance! It was very comfortable and clean! My youngest daughter loved the desk area to do her sketches. The kitchen was well stocked too. The property is very well maintained and Gaby was very helpful. We look forward to staying here again on our next California vacation.

Great home with an amazing view
We stayed at the seadance home after viewing it at a meditation weekend on the cove. It was a great place for three couples to just relax and enjoy the amazing views out of every window. The house was stocked with everything you would want in a vacation rental. It was very clean, beds were comfortable, huge dvd selection we utilized the last night along with the pool table and outdoor fireplace. The owners were very responsive and kind. I will definitely come back to seadance and stay a few night again.

Outstanding in every aspect.
Think the opposite of the Coach Saban VRBO TV ad. This home, its owners and the house manager could not be more welcoming and accommodating. The home is situated directly on the Pacific. There is not a moment of any day that you don't hear the ocean waves. Seadance is equipped with everything you need from kitchen utensils and spices to a firepit overlooking the water. If you enjoy a peaceful retreat with lots of wildlife this gem is for you. As an added benefit a small brewery with great pub food is located walking distance away.

Unbeatable Space for Family + Friends
Here's a list of ALL of the things we enjoyed during our stay (in no particular order): a giant open floor plan for the kitchen and family / living room, a large beautiful lanai with a fire pit overlooking the ocean, three bathrooms (one with a clawfoot tub), extra fridge in the garage, bikes + cornhole set in the garage, plenty of space, a pool table upstairs, another large and covered lanai upstairs with chairs, walking distance to the brewery, cute little foxes running around, lots of deer... oh and a CHARCOAL grill (my favorite) as well as a gas one. I hope we can come back someday!

An immaculate home situated on the edge of the ocean!
Who doesn’t say “wow,” the moment they cross the threshold and take in the spectacular cliffs and waves crashing into shore! Seadance is appointed with everything we could possibly need and want. Comfy beds, beautiful kitchen which opened into the spacious living room. Cocktails on the second floor porch were most enjoyable. The pool table provided a lot of fun, as well. Thank you for opening your home to us!
Of all vacation rentals, this was by far the best communication from owner and property manager. The home is very well supplied, the view cannot be beat and the Shelter Cove community was very welcoming.
Loved unplugging and enjoying Mother Nature. The beds were comfortable and the view is priceless!

Amazing property!!!
The Seadance surpassed all of our expectations!!!! The host was very thoughtful and explained everything to us. The house was beautiful and clean, and had everything we could ask for. Five stars all around.
Our visit was great. House was awesome. Wildlife was unbelievably great. There we're deer and a fox on the back patio daily. Great views of the ocean. Very comfortable beds. Fully stocked kitchen. Our friends were in awe upon entering the house. Already planning a return stay. Wish the weather had been better, but one never knows what it'll be like in Shelter Cove. Over the years its been total fantastic sunny warm days and cold windy days on previous stays. One thing we'll always return to Shelter Cove no matter what the weather is like, its totally worth every minute. Excellent Ocean front home. Property manager was fantastic. Can't wait to book our return stay.
After the crazy 1 hr drive from the 101 you walk in the front door and realize it was well worth it! Spacious living areas, wonderful views, the symphony of the ocean 24/7, friendly people..... We drove out to the Redwood Forests on 4 of our days there and though the road out and back is wild just knowing what we were driving back to was a great peace of mind. We would certainly go back.
This house is amazing! It is comfortable and very clean. The beds are wonderful! We had a wonderful time at the peaceful location. There is nothing we were in need of, that wasn’t provided. We hope to return again..time went way too fast! 😊

a dream
Stayed at Seadance years ago and loved it so much we came back to get married there. Absolutely gorgeous house with everything you could possible need. From assorted ziplocks, toiletries, tons of towels, tons of sheets/blankets, flashlights, bikes, extra fans, heaters and more: the best hosts of anywhere I’ve stayed. Can’t wait to keep returning.

Words Cannot Describe How Amazing This Place Is
I had found this property to rent for a family vacation. It looked great from the pictures, but pictures do not do the Seadance justice. The backyard/oceanfront was unsurprisingly the main feature, with hours spent just sitting and enjoying the moment as the waves crash. As for the surrounding area, Shelter Cove, it was a quaint little coastal town that was fairly hidden.
The owners really thought of everything when preparing this place for guests, as there were many forms of entertainment.
Truly an all-around special place to relax and enjoy nature.
This was an amazing and magical place. Thank you Mary for allowing us the opportunity to experience and enjoy your families property. This was the perfect place and backdrop for our wedding. What an eventful weekend. On our big day we had perfect weather, a earthquake, and fireworks all in one day! This truely is a magical place. Thank you Stephanie and Mary.

Heidi and I immediately fell in love with Seadance. The home is full of warmth, beauty and is truly magical.
