Directions

From the North:  Go South on 101 to Redwood Drive (exit #642).  Take that road south to the little town of Redway. As soon as you get to Redway, you will see signs for Shelter Cove. 

From the South:  Go North on 101 to Garberville.  Take the second Garberville exit, turn left at the end of the exit and go north (this is Redwood Drive) about 2 miles and start looking for the Shelter Cove signs. 

The road to Shelter Cove is from Redway and is to the West, just north of the grocery store.  This is Briceland Road (which turns into Shelter Cove Road) and looks like just a commercial/residential road, but soon turns windy and wooded.  Drive slowly, use low gears, and move over if the crazy locals want to pass.  It is 21 miles - but plan on an hour.  You can't use your cell once you exit 101 (usually). There are forks in the road, but if you follow the yellow line, you won’t get lost.  Turn left at the stop sign at the end of the road and follow the road around toward the water.  You'll pass the lighthouse on your left.  We are on the first street on the left.  Turn on that street (Surf Point), come down to the first left (Seal Court – not very far), turn left and then right at the second driveway and park in front of the office. If you’re using a GPS, our address is 26 Seal Court, Shelter Cove (Whitethorn), CA 95589.  Sometimes the GPS systems do not follow this path.  The directions here are the best. 

Take your time.  This is a good chance to start your melt-down to a quieter, more relaxed way of life. 
Enjoy the beauty.  Drive carefully.  It will take you 45 minutes of more to make this drive. 

From the Lost Coast Trailhead:  From the Black Sands Beach parking lot, turn right onto Humboldt Loop.  Follow that around to Upper Pacific and turn right again.  Go a little over a mile south and turn right on Surf Point.  Come down to the first left (Seal Court – not very far), turn left and then right at the second driveway and park in front of the office. If you’re using a GPS, our address is 26 Seal Court, Shelter Cove (Whitethorn), CA 95589.  Sometimes the GPS systems do not follow this path.  The directions here are the best. 

If you are flying-in:  It is best to go to http://www.airnav.com/airport/0Q5 for information regarding our little air strip.
