Pilot's Dream Property on California's Legendary Lost Coast. Positioned just minutes from Shelter Cove Airport 0Q5 and steps to iconic Black Sands Beach, The Castle Inn of the Lost Coast offers a rare opportunity to live, host, and invest where aviation meets oceanfront majesty. Located at 266 Dolphin Drive, this boutique coastal retreat sits where the Kings Range meets the Pacific Ocean, delivering dramatic views, privacy, and an unmatched sense of arrival. Ideal for owner operators, aviation enthusiasts, retreat hosts, or luxury investors seeking a destination asset. The property consists of FIVE beachside luxury suites. The King's Suite serves as the main residence and entertaining hub, featuring an oversized chef's kitchen with Sub Zero appliances, spacious primary bedroom, additional queen bedroom, and a private spa area designed for sunset relaxation. The layout allows for seamless hosting of guests, events, or executive retreats. Four additional modern suites each offer private entrances, full bathrooms, kitchens, and private balconies with coastal views, creating an ideal structure for boutique hospitality, corporate retreats, weddings, or exclusive group gatherings. Shelter Cove is one of California's most secluded coastal enclaves, known for dramatic cliffs, black sand shoreline, and small town privacy. With proximity to Shelter Cove Airport, this property presents a unique opportunity for fly in guests and aviation centered experiences. Potential future expansion, subject to county approval, may allow for additional rooms, restaurant space, event venue, or bridal hall, creating additional revenue streams and long term upside. Whether you are a pilot seeking a coastal escape, an investor looking for a destination hospitality asset, or a visionary entrepreneur ready to expand, this is a rare chance to own a true Lost Coast landmark. Inquiries welcome for financials, zoning details, and private showings.
