Great location and very clean. Enjoyed our stay! The parking was ok for me but larger cars will be hard to get in and out. No doors on rooms for no privacy at all. It’s a studio like stay. Overall stay was great!! We would return. 5 stars for us!

Hosts sent a link to their electronic info book as soon as we booked, so we had plenty of ideas and info for a few days when we wanted alternatives to the beach (we were close enough to walk to the marina; went fishing one day and whale watching another). The house was well-appointed with kitchen and grill basics, comfortable bed and couch. Everything was spotless when we arrived. They kept in touch with us periodically throughout our stay and we knew we could contact them if we needed anything but we never needed to do that. Would definitely book with them again!

Nice clean, cozy cottage that is convenient to all local areas. The host was very responsive to any issue that would arise as a result of the bad weather that was encountered. The big Red Chair in front of the property was a great landmark to find the place. Will definitely stay there again.

Great experience at the Captain’s Cottage

My wife and I had a great trip at the Captain’s Cottage. The owners were very accessible and the instructions for check-in/check-out are extremely easy to follow. I would definitely book again and recommend this to anyone looking for a nice rental property in a prime location in Belmar.
