About this property

Experience the magic at Black Sands Beach, pet friendly family home.

Perched above the Pacific, the Retreat at Black Sands Beach offers the magic and the mood of the unique Humboldt Lost Coast. Every rock on the beach has a story to tell. Closest home to the storied Black Sands Beach, this rambling home is steps away from the Lost Coast Trail and the Kings Range National Conservation Wilderness, an unparalleled natural meeting of the forest and the sea. Watch whales migrate from your front window seat while enjoying coffee or wine. A nature lovers paradise. Enjoy restaurant, brewery, golf course, tide pools, light house and art galleries. The swim and surf beach at the south end of town is one of the few places allowing cars on the beach. You will also find world class fishing, hiking and mountain biking. A unique home large enough to accommodate the entire family and your pets, but also providing quiet spaces for work or contemplation. The back yard is fully fence so you can allow the children and pets to play without worrying. The home features 4 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths. Two of the bedrooms open to a deck. The great room has a fireplace and sliders to its own deck overlooking the ocean and mountains. The deck off the kitchen has a BBQ and dinning space. Cook with fresh herbs from the greenhouse in the back garden and rosemary from the front yard. Music lovers, we have classic vinyl! Home features free internet, DVD player, CD player with CDs and a turn table with LP's. We also have board games, cards, and a library. This home has something for each member of your family.

Magical!!!
I can honestly say that this vacation stay with my family was the most special, memorable and visually stunning. I was completely blown away with the beauty of this home and location. For me it just doesn't get any better than this!!! It was a far drive for us coming from Southern California but the roadside scenery of the trees, mountains and coastline more than made up for it.

Beautiful location and house!
We had an amazing time here and we loved how the beach was only about a 2 min walk from the property. The house is very clean and spacious with a beautiful backyard and deck that was perfect for watching the sunset and sunrise over the ocean

My #1 choice in Shelter Cove
This was my second stay at Alessandra’s house, and I enjoyed it just as much as the first time a year ago. The house is comfortable and well-equipped, and the area is quiet and beautiful. I highly recommend a stay.
