While on a road trip of the Costal Redwoods for our honeymoon my husband and I came upon Shelter Cove and The Oceanfront Inn. What was supposed to be an overnight stay turned into 3 days and now a traditional anniversary trip up every June. The innkeeper Phil is very cool and laid back, helpful and always on the property...

After a great day visiting the beautiful Humbolt Redwoods National Park, my family was looking for a hotel right on the Ocean where our kids could explore the beach and tidal pools. The Oceanfront Inn in Shelter Cove exceeded all of our expectations! First of all, the road leading into Shelter Cove is really not as bad as some are... More

The road to Shelter Cove is not for the faint of heart with it's curves, and steep climb up and over the King Range. We wanted to be there for the sunset and we made it on time. The Inn is right on the water. The room was spotless and we had a great view of the Pacific from the... More

My wife and I flew into Shelter Cove as the first stop on a week long getaway through the wine country of Sonoma Valley. We tied the plane down not 250 yards from the Oceanfront Inn and walked over. We were greeted very warmly and when we entered our room we fell in love with the place. The room was... More

Indeed this Boutique Hotel was seated right on the edge of the Pacific Ocean. The rooms are very modern and clean. Very quiet place with a restaurant located on the first floor. I didn't see any elevators, but didn't mind climbing the two staircases located opposite sides of the building. We kept our sliding door open so we could hear... More

This place was such a pleasant surprise! After the grueling drive on that windy road from Garberville, I had no hope for anything nice at the end of the journey... any bed would do. But the giant jacuzzi and killer veranda turned a dark and stormy night into a cozy and romantic treat! Thanks to Phil for all the help... More

Sitting on a comfy bed, at the Ocean Front Lodge, listening and watching the sounds of the ocean, its hard to imagine that life gets more perfect than this. It probably doesn't. Good, clean, quality accomodation. Giant jacuzzi, fridge, microwave, bath, 42 inch TV, armchairs, table and chairs, and a balcony to sit and watch the ocean....perfect. A good tasty... More

We were happy with our decision to stay here. Off season rates were reasonable. Rooms were large and comfortable. Our rooms had a microwave and a refrigerator in it which was handy because of the limited restaurants & hours in the off season. The girls had to ask for hair dyers which Phil, the manager, provided (but one didn't work).... More

This Little hole in the wall is adorable! Beautiful views and CLEAN rooms. Great food down stairs too! Would definitely stay again, next time we will stay more than 1 night and come during whale season
