Cliffside Ocean Views • Hot Tub • Concrete Firepit

Perched dramatically on tiered cliffs at the very edge of Shelter Cove, Blue Whale Cove offers a rare perspective of the Lost Coast. ​

Your completely private deck sits high above the water with no neighboring houses in sight. To the south, the view rolls over tiered cliffs across miles of untouched coastline all the way toward Fort Bragg. Watch the atmosphere transform as sea fog drifts over the water, shifting the mood from layered mist to brilliant Pacific blue. Keep an eye out for migrating grey, humpback, and occasionally blue whales passing through, or look directly down to spot surfers dropping into the break at Deadmans Gulch.

Inside, the home is designed for elevated comfort and relaxation, with large windows that frame the ocean and fill the space with natural light. Outfitted with plush leather seating and solid wood furnishings, the open living area invites you to unwind—whether you’re enjoying a glass of wine or watching the fog roll over the coastline.

Mornings start with coffee overlooking the water, and evenings are best spent under the stars in the hot tub—framed by coastal forest, sweeping deck views, and tiered cliffs—or gathered around the concrete firepit listening to the crashing waves below.
