We had a perfect family vacation at The Ship’s Captain, an ideal house for 12 of us, ages 1 to 78! The living areas were nicely appointed and well maintained, with plenty of space including 2 sitting areas on the main floor, one on the lower level, and 2 on the upper level, and 3 levels of screened-in porches. We had lovely breakfasts and dinners together, both indoors and out. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could need plus a lot more. We appreciated the large stove, double oven, many small appliances and the extra kitchen work area on the lower level. The walk-in pantry with an extra sink and refrigerator and laundry room with countertop space are two rooms I wish I had at home! The kids loved the game room with ping-pong and foosball. We used the pool every day – the back yard is quiet and beautifully maintained. The beds and pillows are very comfortable and there were enough bathrooms for each family to have its own, as well as an outdoor shower that was convenient after trips to the beach. Three in our party are avid fishermen, so one of the most attractive features of The Ship’s Captain was the dock and nearby public launch ramp. Most noteworthy was how you responded to our request to provide boat access from the dock. Within 2 days Rico was installing a ladder and a grab bar on the dock! Now that is what defines a wonderful host. We were so impressed and grateful. In short, this house and its host exceeded our expectations in every respect.
