Greenport, New York
Set in the historic section of Greenport village, the Captain’s House, built in 1820, is an elegant and charming 3 bedroom, 2 bath home ready to enjoy, especially for a summer getaway or a cozy holiday retreat. It's a 3 block walk into town and a short bike ride or drive to all the area beaches, wineries and treasure finding.
The Captain’s House is in the perfect location for those who’d like to leave the car at home and wander into town to visit shops, wine bars and restaurants. It's even a 10 minute walk from or the Jitney/train.
There are three bedrooms (one with a queen bed, one with 2 twins or king and a smaller 3rd bedroom with a full bed) and two full bathrooms, one with a washer/dryer. There are two comfortable living rooms, one with a fireplace and large color TV with Netflix, Amazon Prime, Smart TV as well as a selection of puzzles and board games for all ages. Attached to the living room is a formal dining room with farm table for those chilly or hot evenings better spent inside.
For the ultimate chef, the home has a fully stocked kitchen with Cuisinart appliances, a Garland stove, every utensil imaginable as well as all dining-ware. There is no need to bring sheets, towels or beach towels, it’s all here. For those with small children, note that I do not toddler proof the house, remove the nicknacks, etc. so keep that in mind when renting!
There is a very large and beautifully landscaped backyard complete with a 'Secret Garden" hidden in the far back of the property overlooking a zen fountain. Attached to the house is a back deck with a charcoal and a gas grill and an outdoor garden shower. Dining al fresco with friends and family a the patio dining area allows room for entertaining.
* PLEASE NOTE: Beaches are now open again to renters with permit. I will send you a signed copy of your rental agreement, my rental permit and you will need to provide your vehicle registration with the same name as it appears on the contract. Fee for beach passes is $100 for 2 weeks or 2 months!
We stayed at the Whaling Captain's home during a unseasonable rain storm. Though the weather outside was frightful, we stayed nice and cozy inside the house. Unfortunately, we were not able to do much with the beautiful backyard, but perhaps that will be for another stay. Thumbs up, Five Stars, all that good stuff.
The property was charming. The lockbox was very difficult to access and I was given two different codes to open it. Would have liked more info on how to get onto Wi-Fi - instructions were wrong, and info on how to find the bike would have been great. But generally very pleasant place.
Great house with a beautiful garden in a fantastic location in Greenport. Perfect balance of short walk into town and enjoying all that the North Fork has to offer within a short drive. Three adults stayed comfortably and enjoyed a relaxing long weekend. Would definitely stay again!
It’s a very neat house with a lot of history. Decorated lovely, and has everything there you could possibly need. Location is great very short walk in to town. Thank you so much, we really enjoyed our stay.
We felt so welcomed and every room we entered increased the sense of being in lovingly appointed atmosphere surrounded by art and furnishings, a fireplace stacked with wood, the artful curation of books and shells and beautiful but welcoming, comfortable furniture. We gathered in every cozy room when our son and his wife visited for dinner with our grandchild. The kitchen is so delightful to cook in and once you step out into the sweet deck in the back you are in a lush yard with a huge lilac tree and a tree swing and through the bamboo you discover the fountain and koi pond and a seating area. Pure serenity. The bedrooms are lovely and cozy and the bathrooms beautifully designed and modernized. We felt so at home. So relaxed and at the same time enchanted and renewed from being in such a home. Thank you Marcia
Like many others I have a hard time leaving this review because I loved the property so much, I want to keep it a secret! I can’t wait to come back and stay again.
The house was located in the heart of Greenport and walkable into town. It’s a beautiful historic home and has everything you need. Marcia was a great host!
Best house we ever rented. VRBO listing does not do justice to the house. It was fabulous, awesome decorations, something new every time we turned around. So much so, we hated to leave even to go out to dinner. The owners truly took pride in the house and maintained its historic charm in every room.
My husband and I and our Havanese, Max , spent much of the summer at Marcia and Robert’s beautiful home. The house exceeded our expectations. It is a gem and the garden with its water fall was an oasis. The house was fully equipped with all that one would need. Dating from 1821 It was tastefully updated retaining its charm. Close to town it was an easy walk to the many fine restaurants and shops. Beaches were near by both on the Sound and Gardiner’s Bay. We felt so at home here. Thank you Marcia and Robert for sharing your home with us. We can’t wait to return
Charming house. Immaculate and just as pictured. Wonder townfor walking, shopping and great restaurants. Delightful in every way??
Marcia's house is great location just a short walk into town, and the house itself is adorable and charming. It's listed as a 2BR but there is actually a small 3rd BR as well. The yard also is very well manicured and we enjoyed relaxing back there as well. Overall would definitely recommend and stay again.
