Horrid smells to great you when you enter, old couch from thrift store covered with sheet, musty bed with sheets so thin you can see through them. On cold nights, good luck because the heaters have little signs on them saying you will blow a fuse if you turn them on. Extra blankets in central location IF you happen to... More

We stayed in this nice, pet-friendly cove over a long holiday weekend. The Cove is located on the Long Beach penisula about ten miles north of the more known & touristy Long Beach. It is not oceanview or beach view, but its just a short walk over the dunes to the waves and wind. The cabins are set in a... More

We stayed in the apartment which was great. It's the other half of the duplex the covekeepers live in. It has two fireplaces, separate bedroom and full kitchen area. Please remember this is an older place that is rustic so it's definately not your high end hotel but we loved the quietness of the "cove". We never heard the covekeepers... More

Shakti Cove is a little slice of heaven. Please note that the experience is rustic cottage. Kitchens with basic utensils and very clean. The cottages encircle a sunny circular yard with picnic tables. Visit the website for pictures. The cottages are secluded in a wooded setting but within walking distance of book stores, a grocery and restaurants. This is a... More

Great little funky beach cabins with kitchenettes. This is more like your grandparent's cabin than the Four Seasons. Clean, basic, rustic and very much inline with the character of Ocean Park. Walk the beach for 10 minutes to the Full Circle Cafe or get your WiFi fix (also a short walk) at Adelaide's, the little coffee shop and book store.

I looked all over the internet looking for a "different" place for a get a way weekend. We got there and it was great. The cottages were not far from the ocean and the "Cottage Keepers" were great. The cottages looked a little rough from the outside but were great inside, a great place to get a way from the... More

I had planned to stay 3 nights, but after paying and going to my cottage, I sat inside for a few minutes and decided I could not stay here with the smell. It was like that awful perfumy carpet powder throughout the place. I permiated my body and clothes. Just awful. So, they were kind enough to give me a... More

The cottages were quaint, old and rustic. Charming little beach cottages! The "CoveKeepers" were hospitable, nice and knowledgeable of where to go, what to see, and where to eat as well as taking care of their beach cottages--no easy task! It was wonderful to be able to bring our dog as they are dog friendly.
