The location was great, only a few minutes from the beach access. Beautiful sunset views over the sound and star gazing from the upper level deck. We loved the outdoor shower are cute signs around the property. The fenced in back yard was an added bonus, but if you have tall dogs note that the fence is only about 3 feet tall around the back. A few things that could use improvement is that the owner notified us a few days prior to our stay that the dryer wasn’t working and the coffee table had broken recently. Both easy fixes that happen with rentals. Based on images we thought there was a gas grill, but once we got to the house we realized that there was a charcoal grill. The house is a little small when it comes to places to store clothes, especially in the room with twin beds. Maybe a few more places to hang clothes in that room would be nice. We enjoyed our stay!

Great Escape

My family went to the Shellter for spring break this year. What a great escape. The beaches were vacant, full of shells, and our dogs had a blast in the ocean. What a great house and great location. We loved all the special touches and character of the house. We'll definitely stay again!!

Best stay ever!!

This place was perfect for us and our two dogs. It was clean. A fenced in yard for the dogs to play. The marina was across the street. After a long day of fishing it was just a short walk to the house. The host was quick to answer questions and made us feel welcomed. I will definitely get this place when we come back.

Great place

House was very nice. Was stocked well with all cooking ware. The upper deck was really nice with a great view. Outdoor shower is nice, could use a little more coverage in my opinion. Great little neighborhood with close beach access. Several of the beach acces were damaged and closed while we were there.

This is the second year we have stayed here. We were here during the 4th of July holiday and it was great. Holiday parade. The house is just like it is described and not that far from the beach or sound. Great place.

Good time

We enjoyed our stay at the Shelter. Rain meant we couldn’t enjoy the upper deck but the house had everything we needed for evening of games we brought with us and great location for exploring all our favorites on the island and hopping the ferry one afternoon “chasing the sun” to Ocracoke. Thank you!
