Sherkston Shores is a gated resort community with strict entry policies for all private cottage rentals.

All bookings must be family‑oriented, which can include children and their legal guardians.

If your group does not meet the family‑oriented requirement, every guest must be 25 years of age or older to be permitted entry.

To ensure a smooth arrival, we will request the ages of all guests in your group before confirming your reservation. This helps avoid any disappointment, as Sherkston Shores has full authority over who is allowed through the gates and may deny entry to any group that does not meet their guidelines.

The short answer- ASAP!
Sherkston Shores is only open for six months out of year from May to October with the summer months being the busiest time (June, July and August). It’s best to book at least a few months in advance of your desired dates to avoid upset.

Sherkston Shores is a private, gated resort. All guests must be registered with the resort to gain entry. Guest House manages this for all our guests.

All guests much be registered regardless of age (yes, even infants!)

Reach out to us via Airbnb Inquiry Message on any of our active listings (bonus if it’s one of the cottages you want to potentially stay at!).
It’s best to know your guest count per cottage and desired dates before reaching out so that our team can give you a clear picture of what’s available to support securing your booking.
We do host many cottages in close proximity to the other but keep in mind that options are limited based on calendar availability.

Yes! All cottages managed by our team come with one four-seater lifted golf cart for use during your stay. As a mode of transport in the resort, Golf Carts are part of the buzzing culture at Sherkston. We want to ensure you have the full experience and convenience!

We do rent out second golf carts but only based on availability. Please reach out to us ASAP after booking your stay with us if you want a second cart. This gives our team some time to track one down for your stay. There is an additional fee involved. Our team will be able to give more information once you confirm you are interested in a second cart.

Sherkston Shores does not permit day visitors to the resort. All guests must be registered to a cottage. If you have not reached your max limit of guests at your cottage, our team can coordinate adding to your guest list.

All cottages managed by Guest House come with pillows and mattress covers for all sleeping arrangements. We do offer an opt in linen service at an additional fee. If you do not opt in, you will have to pack your own linens. Once you have booked with us, you will receive more information and the link to secure linens if you wish.
