    The winner of this Long Beach Peninsula Package will enjoy:

    A two-night stay in a one-bed cabin for two adults and two pets at Ocean Park’s Shakti Cove Cottages, .  donated by Harriet and Celia Cavalli.

    Each cottage has a full kitchen with dishes and pans, a bathroom with shower, a color cable TV/VCR, and quaint decor. They are charming, rustic and clean.  Shakti Cove is a wonderful slice of paradise, located on the beautiful Long Beach Peninsula.  Ten separate cottages are set in a semicircle, nestled in a grove of trees.  The cottages are on 3 secluded acres, bordered by a stream that looks like a pond. It’s really a run-off creek from Loomis Lake to the ocean, and great blue herons visit often, as do many other water birds and otters.  Guests just follow the sound of the surf over a footpath to the ocean.   Guests describe their experience as “magical.” It’s the kind of retreat where you drive onto the property and your whole soul is immediately refreshed.Some holiday weekends exempted.
