About this house rental
Completed in 2019 and only recently shared as a rental, this beach cottage is the perfect family getaway! It's located at milepost 22.5 in the 4x4 area of Carova Beach (4x4 VEHICLE IS REQUIRED) just a couple minute walk from the beach.
The house has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and can sleep a maximum of 7 people but is best suited for 5 or less. There is a queen bed in the master bedroom and bunk beds with a trundle in the other bedroom. The couch in the living room can convert to a queen bed if you need extra space. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need and has seating for 4 people around the island. A full bathroom with sliding barn door completes the main level of the home.
Outside on the large covered deck is a swing and lounge area on one side with a table and charcoal grill on the other. On the ground level there is an outdoor shower and a comfy hammock to relax in. There is a storage room with an additional half bathroom and washer and dryer. To complete the outside and guaranteed to be a hit with the kids is a tree house, swing, and a zip line to stay busy for hours when you're not at the beach!
There is no internet, cable, or phone at the house. Antenna tv is included as well as a blueray player and assortment of movies, games, and puzzles. Shellnanigans is best suited for families with young children.
***The water issues have been fixed! A new Kinetico system was just installed and it has cleared up the water. There is still a UV light for added safety so the water is clear, safe, and drinkable.***
***Please bring your own linens, towels, and paper products. A welcome letter will be sent upon booking with additional details, but if you have questions please ask!***

Our family of four had the best time at Shellnanigans! This was our second year staying here, and we absolutely love it. The house is super affordable and located right on the 4x4 beach, which makes packing up and heading to the beach for the day so easy.We love how close the house is to the ocean, and it's the perfect size for our family of four. The house has all the basic necessities you need for a beach getaway, and the secluded, peaceful location gives you the best beach vibes.If your family is looking for a small, affordable beach bungalow to relax, sleep, and spend long days on the beach, this is the house for you! We made the best memories and can't wait to come back again!

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was the perfect house for our little family of four. The short walk or drive to the beach was spectacular. My oldest daughter really enjoyed the swing and treehouse. Communication with the host was excellent! 10/10 would recommend! Hopefully can book again in the future!
