Stunning Ocean Views on the Lost Coast
Ten unit boutique property with all rooms literally just feet from the ocean. We watched whales spout and seals frolic while sipping wine on our patio. The room was well appointed and, although there is no onsite staff, the hotel was immediately responsive to questions via email. The 24 mile ride in and out of Shelter Cove from Hwy 101 is not for the faint of heart so plan on staying within Shelter Cove for the duration of your stay ( this is not a good base for exploring the redwoods). As for Shelter Cove, just a handful (like five) places to eat, some only open for brief windows of time or certain days so be prepared for that. Also, while the rest of California was under an extreme heat advisory the high in Shelter Cove was 62 during our July stay. It gets windy, damp and foggy even during the summer so be sure to pack warm clothes. This is not a lie on the beach and swim vacation destination, but if you enjoy watching big waves crash on the rocks and spotting sea mammals right outside your door this is a place you should check out.

The view is spectacular. The amenities few. Room was clean. Difficult to find the place at night. 10 am checkout is too early and got the hairy eyeball when we returned to the room at 10:15 to use the facilities before leaving. Overall-would recommend.

We had an enjoyable stay at Black Sands Inn. Excellent view, great sunset & comfortable sleep. Except for the sound of ocean waves (which we loved!), it was very nice & quiet. Beautiful plants and saw lots of deer around the area!
