Om dette overnattingsstedet

Edgartown Captain's Home - Luksus - beliggenhet "en gang i livet opplevelse" 5 *

Captain Morse House er en av Edgartowns fremste hjem. Det ble bygget av kaptein John O. Morse i 1840. Morse var en av epokerens mest vellykkede hvalfangstkaptein. Det er et stort og storslått hjem bygget i gresk revivalstil. Captain Morse House har en ypperlig beliggenhet nær Edgartowns shopping og en kort spasertur til fire strender og North Wharf og byens travle havn.

OVERNATTING
Vi kan sette huset opp for å imøtekomme flere forskjellige grupper. Fra et nådig hjem som vil være vert for en liten familie til sin maksimale konfigurasjon der vi kan romme opptil 25 personer i 12 soverom. Det er 20 senger fordelt på 12 soverom og hems. Første og andre etasje har de beste soverommene. Det er 7 fulle bad og en utend��rs dusj. Det er også to fullt utstyrte kjøkken, to store spiserom og to store stuer.

Vannutsikt - er du på vannet
Det er utsikt over Edgartown havnen fra huset og fra begge våre verandaer. Vi er bare 200 meter ned Morse Street (60 m) til The North Wharf er. The North Wharf er et senter for lansering, fiske, dockage, fortøyning og båtliv. Kaptein Morse pleide å holde båtene på The North Wharf, så det er virkelig som å ha din egen brygge! En morgen spasertur ned til kaien er en fin måte å starte dagen på. Se vår Waterfront Page.

Interiøret går gjennom
Hjemmet er spredt over tre etasjer, og tilbyr et utvalg av offentlige rom og private soverom. Forsiden av første etasje har en stor formell stue med dobbel tilgang portaler til verandaen. Ved siden av er inngangsveien som har en nydelig vindeltrapp bygget av lokale skipsarbeidere. Neste kommer medie rommet som dobler som et ekstra soverom og deretter en formell spisestue og gourmet kjøkken. Mens du går forbi kjøkkenet, går du inn i baksiden av huset med en stor stue og spisestue, et privat bad med eget bad og et fullt utstyrt kjøkken. Dette er et flott uformelt rom for flere uformelle sammenkomster.

Andre etasje starter igjen med en praktfull veranda som kan nås fra enten hovedsoverommet eller det andre store soverommet. Herfra til baksiden av huset er det ytterligere 5 soverom og 4 bad. Disse er alle lagt ut på en måte som du ikke vil se i andre hus bygget mer nylig. Det er en del av sjarmen til huset.

I tredje etasje er det ytterligere fire soverom. Dette er den enkleste delen av huset og var der tjenerne pleide å bo. Tilbake på 1800-tallet tok det en liten hær for å drive huset. Ikke alle kunne faktisk bo i huset. Noen bodde på Chappaquiddick Island og tok fergen drives av kaptein Morse far Uriah.

Som du kanskje kan gjette, spesialiserer vi deg i store familier, familiegjenforeninger, bryllup, jubileer og alle hendelser der folk ønsker å nyte hverandres selskap uten å distrahere andre. Store grupper regelmessig bestille vårt hjem for sin sjarm, komfort og unik karakter og nåde. Med det sagt at våre lange gjentatte leietakere pleier å være mindre familier på 6 eller så. De inviterer venner til å komme og besøke og bruke de store stedene for underholdende. I min ungdom bodde jeg i huset med min bror og foreldre. Det virker uvanlig nå, men da tok vi det for gitt og hjalp vår far med vedlikehold og plenarbeid.

FASILITETER
Vi er fullt utstyrt med stort sett alt du kan forestille deg. Høydepunkter er fullt sengetøy, to underholdningssentre, fullt hus WiFi, 4 sone HVAC, heis og gratis sykler. Klikk på overskriften ovenfor for en fullstendig liste.

UTENDØRS
De to verandaene er innrammet av 10 doriske søyler og vender mot havnen. De skaper et ideelt sted å tilbringe dagen. Den store bakgården og hagen tilbyr en privat oase fra travelheten til en vingårdssommer. Verftet er graced av tre tårnhøye og praktfulle Linden trær.

På North Water Street side av huset er det to romslige verandaer med utsikt over Edgartown Harbor. Edgartowns North Wharf ligger under huset på slutten av Morse Street. Det er et flott sted å gå og nyte den travle havnen eller kanskje litt fiske. Vi har en beskjeden oppkjørselen som kan holde 4 biler som fører tilbake til bakgården. Vår bakgård er en av de mest romslige og trygge i byen og har en muret uteplass med plass til 20 med en veldig fin grill. Verktøyet skjul har gratis sykler, strandstoler og plen spill.

HVOR ER HUSET
Vi er på østsiden av øya Martha's Vineyard i den historiske byen Edgartown. Huset ligger tre kvartaler nord for hovedgaten i Edgartown på Morse Street. Kart

OMRÅDET RUNDT
Kaptein Morse House ligger i hjørnet av Morse og North Water Streets. Byen Edgartown er definert hovedsakelig av Main Street. I sør er South Water Street som vinder ved det gigantiske pagodetreet og mot veien til Katama og South Beach. North Water Street går motsatt vei, og Captain Morse House ligger omtrent halvveis mellom Main Street og Harbor View Hotel som ser over Edgartown fyr og inngangen til havnen.

FOR Å KONKLUDERE
Vi er forpliktet til å gjøre alt vi kan for å gjøre ditt opphold i vår familie hjemme på Martha's Vineyard en spesiell. Vi tror at huset vårt er det beste i byen, og tilbyr våre gjester en helt unik opplevelse.

The Capt. Morse House exceeded our high expectations

We invited a group of old friends from all over the country for a family celebration. They loved the prime location in the historic district and the charming and spacious common areas and private bedrooms, but most of all our guests loved the instant pleasure of such a welcoming environment that encouraged gathering together, camaraderie, and new and renewed special friendships. We would not hesitate to rent again, and our guests mentioned at our family celebration in the House’s beautiful backyard that they were already thinking about hosting a similar event at the Capt. Morse House soon.

Family summer getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The home is huge and well stocked with everything one could need. It feels like a step back in time and yet has all the modern necessities. We loved exploring the many bedrooms on 3 levels! We enjoyed family dinners indoors and out and evening game nights in the front living room. We could walk to the beach and restaurants easily. It was a perfect week!

Beautiful in an amazing location

The Captain Morse House's location made out stay last year worth it! Not only is it walking distance from all the amazing restaurants and shops but it is also large enough to house a full troop of people while still feeling as if you have enough space and not on top of each other. Norm was an amazing host so helpful and very gracious on check in and check out. We truly had the best experience here and would recommend it to anyone!

The house is elegant and well appointed and will accommodate a lot of guests.

The ship captain’s house is elegant and welcoming if you appreciate an atmosphere of yesteryear. It is like staying in your grandmother’s house just as she left it, except she fortunately had modern beds and an up to date, well stocked kitchen, actually 2 kitchens. We love that atmosphere and our children do as well, so everyone was happy. We were there in Winter and heating was satisfactory, so we cannot speak to Summer conditions. The house is lovely and charming and the only short coming was parking. The driveway can take 2 cars, one behind the other, which presents an inconvenience so the second car we had parked on the street. Fortunately in 2 weeks in December it never got a parking ticket for overnight parking which the sign says is prohibited. Old New England village not designed to accommodate automobiles. On that subject walking to the commercial center of Edgartown for restaurants and shops is likewise charming day and evening. Our family walked to restaurants, shops and the movie theater. How old fashioned, nice and healthful.

Fantastic Family Reunion

We had 3 generations of our family staying in the house over an Oct. holiday weekend- 14 adults/9 children and it was absolutely perfect! The location is superb, the spaces inside were great for small gatherings and conversations, and the children loved playing hide and seek in this grand old house. The host was most accommodating and we could not have asked for a better stay! HIGHLY recommend!

Beautiful accomodations in a fabulous location.

The Captain Morse House is a lovingly restored home in a fabulous location. The house mixes historic charm with beautifully updated amenities including kitchens & bathrooms. All of the rooms are spacious and comfortable for gathering. The kitchens are fully-equipped including outdoor gas grills. The backyard is beautiful with a lush lawn, flowerbeds and outdoor dining tables. I rented both wings for a large family gathering. The accommodations were so comfortable and in good order that it made the weekend effortless and enjoyable for everyone. Having the house walking distance to town was an added bonus. This was my first time renting on MV and I will definitely return to the Captain Morse House.

70th Birthday Party

We hosted a 70th Birthday Party. We invited friends and family to spend the weekend with us to celebrate this milestone. Everyone loved the property. It had everything we needed; plenty of places to gather, eat and walking distance to downtown Edgartown. It was March so it was cold and windy. The house has so much character, history and lovely little extras you have to experience. A wonderful experience.

Thank you so much for your kind words. We appreciate our winter guests who take the time to explore the island in an uncrowded and special time of year. Ever since Covid, we have offered the house for winter getaways and the response has been wonderful. Have a great spring and we hope to see you again sometime.

Winter on the vineyard

My family and I go to the vineyard every winter, and it’s always a great time. We usually stay at hotels but we really wanted to be together this time. We found the Captain Morse house and I could not be more thankful! Our weekend was everything we’d thought it would be and more. This house extremely homey and comfortable! We never wanted to leave! There were great paths for our annual night walk (yes, we walk in winter 😅) we were in walking distance to some amazing coffee shops and diners, and the kids had a ball during our dance party with all the cousins, aunts, and uncles! Above all I have to say, the management was the best part! You can stay at a place that has everything you need and more, but if the people running it aren’t accommodating or lack communication, you’d never want to go there again! This team went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and we were comfortable! They responded to a late night request as well which was very impressive! Safe to say…. We will be back next February! Thank you so much!!! The Crafts Family

Fabulous in all regards

We'd not hesitate for a moment before returning. Our group was adult siblings, spouses, and young children. The house (we had both wings) was perfect for us. There was space to spread out--adults could be in the front living rooms while kids enjoyed feeling independent in the back. Two kitchens avoided any crunches of space. Bedrooms galore provided great flexibility. A short walk to Lighthouse Beach or to town provided perfect outings. And, used to living ourselves in a house of a similar era (early 1800s) with English antiques accented by China Trade pieces, we felt perfectly at home. The house clearly has a force field around it that avoids "beach house kitsch." It's just charming. And three big cheers for the Heidi, the manager. On top of providing a wonderful welcome when we arrived, she hit true heroics at 10:45am on New Year's Day when she answered our call on the first ring and arrived at the house within minutes and jumped our car, the battery of which had died, in time to make our boat off-island. That is truly above and beyond.

Best Family Vacation Ever!

We stayed at the Captain Morse House for a large family celebration (10 adults and 3 kiddos) and had the most lovely stay! The house is situated perfectly between cute shops in downtown Edgartown and the idyllic lighthouse. We loved taking strolls for a morning pastry, followed by lunch at the house and a meander to the beach to frolic in the ocean. The house also has bicycles, which we took out to explore other parts of the island. The Captain’s house was a perfect place to stay -- we got to hang out all under one roof, eat meals together, watch the Warriors together etc. All while having enough space for everyone to feel comfortable and enough rooms to nestle in by one’s self if needed. There are two kitchens (fully equipped with all sorts of cooking utensils, platters, dishes, anything you could want ) -- our family used the smaller kitchen for breakfast preparation and the large kitchen for epic dinner preparations. As for the sleeping quarters, the bedrooms are cozy and flooded with light. Two of the upstairs bedrooms connect to a gorgeous porch which is great for a nice view and people watching. There is also a downstairs porch that was perfect for cocktails and many games of chess. The backyard outdoor space was beautiful -- the tables outside were great for a delightful outdoor lunch while the kids ran around on the lawn nearby. The owners are also incredibly kind and generous and made our stay at Capt. Morse’s house very special, smooth and sublime! We cannot wait to visit again. June 10, 2019

These guests were really interesting and gracious. They were truly a fun group and we enjoyed meeting them. Their review states perfectly one of the best uses of the Captain Morse House. It is a great place to bring a far flung family back together again. They made good use of the bikes and left the house in great condition. We would love to have them back again, especially their delightful children.

The Captain Morse House has been in our family since my father purchased it in 1955. I spent my summers at the house until I graduated from Tufts University. In 1973 I started Island Sports, a boat rigging and windsurfing shop. I expanded it to Newport, RI, in 1979 and ran it there until 2007, when we sold it. In 2008 I entered the vacation business and converted the Captain Morse House into a successful vacation rental. Since 2008 we have rented the home to over 200 families and groups. Our most recent project is Vacation Rental MV. This full-service vacation management business is designed to assist busy homeowners with listing and managing their on-island rental properties. 2021 will be our second season in business. In the winter, my wife and I live in Florida. Each spring, we drive up to the island, where we open up the house and prepare it for the season. We spend about a month doing this and then travel to Oregon, where we spend the summer windsurfing, kitesurfing, and enjoying all the Northwest offers. In the fall, we return to the island, help close the house, and prepare it for winter. There are always jobs to do on a house this large, allowing us more hands-on time. We travel back down to Florida in the late fall with the geese. I have built several homes and enjoy the challenge of maintaining this old house and of creating wonderful living spaces suitable for large or small numbers of guests. Due to my long time on the island. I can help you plan your vacation. I can provide you with the best possible service if we communicate via telephone or email. Our guests aren't clients so much; they are friends assisting us in maintaining the property and keeping it in our family for future generations. The vacation rental business has allowed our family to continue to own the house and to share it with other people who love the island and the unique architecture and heritage of this wonderful building.

Hvorfor verten valgte dette overnattingsstedet

My father often visited Edgartown on his father's sailboat, the Gertrude. In 1955 my parents purchased the Captain Morse House in order to have a summer home to raise their growing family. Back in 1955 Edgartown was still a failed whaling town without the top reputation it now enjoys. Shortly after the purchase they added a separate kitchen and changed the house so that they could divide it into wings. This allowed them to rent them out separately. We have kept this configuration and you can still rent out the home Complete or as an East Wing or as a West Wing. and I then spent every summer there until I moved to Newport Rhode Island in 1979. I continued to visit my parents each summer until 2007. I now spend as much time as I can on the island attending to the house and maintaining it. When it was built in 1840 it was perhaps the best home in Edgartown. Now movie stars and celebrities have built larger homes but non with the style and class of the Captain Morse House.

Hva gjør dette overnattingsstedet unikt?

There are lots of modern and redone houses around but there are very few of these homes. Built in 1840 and filled with charm and character you will be enthralled by the beauty and simplicity of the home and it's surroundings. Our guests say this is the perfect location. You are close to town and right up from the harbor. Park the car for the week or leave it on the mainland. Our location allows for freedom from car pooling and shuttles. Everything is literally a walk away. We love walking down Morse Street to the boatyard to see what's happening on the waterfront and to talk to the boaters and fisherman. The large open home offers privacy and retreat no matter how many people fill the house. The large backyard can serve as a base for quiet afternoons as well as an evening party. The restaurants and shops are all an easy walk away but it is the waterfront that is the best part of living at the Captain Morse House. After all - it is a whaling Captain's home
