About this property

Restored Seaport Village Cottage

Please Note : Guests must add a message with their reservation request, and kindly indicate who is traveling.

Welcome! The Captain’s Cottage is located in the seaport Village of Greenport on the North Fork of Long Island. George Graber was a Steamship Captain and the son of a renowned Schooner Smack Captain named William Anderson Graber. He grew up one street over on Fifth Street, and when he married his wife May Ellen Locker he moved in with her family to this cottage. More recently it was the home to the National SCRABBLE Association.
Just a few minutes’ walk from the restored 1880s home are the Shelter Island Ferry, the Hampton Jitney and the Long Island Railroad train station. When you arrive at this beautiful spot you won’t believe you are only 100 miles from midtown Manhattan. Within a few blocks of this cozy home you can be sunbathing at the Fifth Street Beach, fishing off the Railroad dock, playing with your children at the beach park or walking to town to sample one of the fine restaurants Greenport boasts. Why not try a tasting at the local Greenport Harbor Brewery or learn how to shuck your own oysters at the dockside Little Creek Oyster? A comprehensive sampling of local menus will be provided at the cottage.
The 2-story cottage is at the corner of the Main Road and Fourth Streets, sleeps 6 and features three bedrooms: Queen, full and a room with two twin beds. There are 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen, dining room, living room and a small den-home office or game room. There is ample on-site parking and a screened porch for outdoor dining. This is a no-smoking property. The Cottage is just a few miles from Peconic Landing, so a convenient place to stay if visiting relatives there. Perfect for families. Sorry NO pets. No parties.
Property owners live 4 blocks away and will be happy to share information during your visit. Please note - the electronic calendar on this site does not necessarily reflect up-to-the-moment bookings. We request all interested guests to please email owner with information about your visit and who might be traveling with you. If accepted we will require the names of the guests, and ages if any are minors.
We look forward to hosting you.

Family trip to the North Fork

We had a party of 6 (4 adults and 2 kids) and it was the perfect size for us. It was clean and comfortable with a short walk to Greenport and the ferry to go to Shelter Island. We loved having breakfast in the sunroom each morning. Jane was very attentive making it a wonderful and relaxing stay!

Wonderful Cottage in Greenport, NY

We recently stayed at the restored cottage that used to be the National Scrabble Headquarters. It was a wonderful experience. The host created a warm, comfortable atmosphere in this charming cottage. It was clean, had great amenities and our grandchildren loved the game room. Everything about the house was interesting, comfortable and fun. Also, the house was very well located. It was an easy walk to every place we wanted to visit in town.

Cute cottage, close to adorable town of Greenport.

First of all, Jane was a lovely hostess - every question answered and every need attended to. The house itself was immaculately clean, beds were comfortable and linens provided. It's just the right size for two couples or a family with 2-3 children, and we managed 3 couples for a short stay. We only cooked breakfast-but kitchen is well equipped, including herbs and spices, if you plan to cook more. A very nice IGA is just a few blocks away. We would definitely go back.

beautiful getaway to the Captains house!

we fully enjoyed this lovely home, just a walk from everything from fine restaurants and ice cream shops to the beach. the spacious home had not only a family room, dining area with a full set table and a game room( lots of scrabble will be played!) but also a perfect screened in back patio where we had our breakfasts. we lover the bedrooms upstairs, each was very private. this was the perfect home to stay in for a visit to Greenport, and just steps from the train stop! we’ll be back! Jane was a lovely just, offering tips and suggestions -and a little treat for us to enjoy.

Retirement Celebration by the Sea

The cottage in Pipes Cove was the perfect location to celebrate the retirement of a friend whose first love is being on the beach. The location of the property was exactly what the description noted with 3 great bedrooms and 2 baths for 4 women, and lots of neat spaces to gather. The screened-in porch was a sanctuary in the rain, the front porch was great for people watching and the den was a comfy conversation haven. The quaint seaport village with its great restaurants and boutiques is within a few blocks walking distance. Our host, Jane, could not be more helpful in planning our visit and personally greeted us when we arrived. Her kindness throughout the process was unmatched! We have all said we are coming back with spouses and other friends!

Greenport Greatness

Our stay at the Captain's Cottage was excellent. Firstly, it is in a prime location for all of the activities in Greenport - only steps away from the main downtown area. Inside, it is charming and functional with wifi, space, and many other comfy, cozy amenities. Finally, our property manager Jane was so helpful with our stay. She reached out before our stay with proactive tips for traffic and check-in, and was available to answer any questions throughout our stay. Further, she even helped us when we had forgotten items in the cottage after leaving. While our visit was short, it was also certainly sweet and I will be happy to return the next time I'm visiting Greenport! Thanks Jane.
