This was a fabulous weekend trip. We stayed in a corner- jacuzzi room which had a spectacular view of the ocean. The room was very clean with up-to-date furniture and a very comfortable king bed. The hotel staff were friendly and very accommodating. I would genuinely recommend this hotel for a nice, romantic get-away. The Cove Restaurant is a nice place for dinner as well. The food options on Shelter Cove are limited, so it was great to have a good place to eat that was in our hotel

Truly the "Lost Coast," getting to this little town is a journey. It's at the end of a scenic, windy mountain road about 24 miles and 45 minutes from the highway. Getting to the Oceanfront Inn is the reward. It's not formal, it's not fussy, and the view is gorgeous.

With under 10 rooms, the Oceanfront Inn is tiny and quiet. All rooms have balconies overlooking the water, and the rocky beach is accessible by a set of stairs on the property. We were glad we booked a jacuzzi king because our corner room had big windows on two sides, showcasing the view. The room was freshly painted and recently renovated. There is also a 1-bedroom apartment with a full kitchen, terrace, and sofa bed. The innkeeper lives on the premises, and he, his dogs, and the housekeeper are the full complement of staff.

The Cove Restaurant downstairs is one of a couple of restaurants in town and serves fish, steak, and pasta. Service is slow, but where are you going after dinner, anyway? No breakfast or lunch. Either pack in your own, shop in the general store or visit the nearby crepe cart (too cold while we were there for al fresco dining).

Room Tip: corner rooms on the north side have the best views.

I really enjoyed our stay. The rooms facing the ocean have balconies with panoramic views, fantastic location. Our room was so clean and neat. Our housekeeper Marina who is such a sweetheart, so friendly and helpful. We'll definitely come back and stay here again.

Great rates. Clean rooms. Very nice rooms. Our balcony practically hangs over the ocean. It is great and safe and clean. The restaurant is really good and the live music was fabulous.

We traveled to Shelter Cove during a week long 30th wedding anniversary celebration the second week of October. Our timing was perfect - no crowds and the weather was amazing. The Oceanfrontinn was very quiet, clean and reasonably priced. The front desk clerk was very helpful and nice! We stayed two nights and left the sliding glass doors open both nights - being right on the ocean was amazing! Ate at The Cove restaurant the first night- had the lobster dinner - VERY good. The service was good but the waitstaff seemed a bit overworked or busy, not a lot of smiles or fast service but we enjoyed the good food and we weren't in a hurry anyway. The second day we ate at the Chart Room further down the road. The food was very good and we enjoyed the company of the charming (and interesting) couple who own the restaurant. When we go back to Shelter Cove we will stay at the Oceanfront Inn - be sure to stay in one of the rooms on the very top floor, you'll be happy you did!!

What a fabulous place. I had a few questions and so I didn't mind calling to discuss, get the rates and reserve the "Captains Quarters," jacuzzi room.

I'm happy I picked the Oceanfront Inn.

My husband and I had the privilege of staying a full week at this lovely inn. It was the best vacation we had ever taken. No rush, no fuss. This will be an annual stop for us for sure. I highly recommend this to anyone who needs to just slow down. I didn't even know how bad I needed the rest, and rest we did. Thanks for the wonderful week. See you next year.

My husband and I wandered into Shelter Cove and stumbled across this inn... we were in luck. The 1 bedroom full kitchen was available and we enjoyed two blissful days and nights there, perched at the top of the bluff overlooking a glassy ocean. Lovely place, quiet, reasonable, clean! We'll be back.

Just wanted to let you know what a fantastically great time my sisters and Mom had at your place. Jeanine is from Chicago and just could not get enough of the area. They all three enjoyed every minute, as I did. It was very difficult to leave. This was really a very special time for all of us!
Thank you so much !!!!!

Thanks for all the fantastic accommodations at your beautiful oceanfront setting.

Really nice to have 24 hour beach access with the stairway to the beach. The room was clean and beautifully furnished. we enjoyed the cove restaurant on premises and the musician was great. We will be back!!!

This was one of our best vacations yet!! Beautiful panoramic view of the ocean.
Nicely decorated room. The only thing it needed to make it a 5 star hotel was porcelain coffee cups and glass drinking glasses. lol
Very secluded. Just what we were looking for.
