We are part-time residents of Centerville who needed a large house to accommodate our family for a wedding weekend. The Captain’s House exceeded all expectations for this event. The host was incredibly helpful for any of our requests. We highly recommend this property if you are interested in a classic New England sea captains home. We loved our stay and you will too.

The home was perfect for our multi-generational Thanksgiving Celebration. Ages ranged from 4 to 85 years old. We had plenty of room to relax and the rooms were comfortable and cozy. The home came stocked with tons of plates, cups, utensils, etc etc etc which is always important. We had a great time! Our host was communicative and was very committed to making sure we had everything we needed. If we need to host a similar family gathering, this will be our first choice! Thank you!!

Perfectly situated. Big old house in great shape. Lots of stairs but with 6 adults plenty of room to stretch out. Only complaint was no cable so no network TV. Had a CO2 detector going off when we arrived and the Home Watcher was there to put in a new battery within 30 minutes

We had 11 of us and it was perfect. Everyone had their own space with huge tables so we could all eat together. Nice quiet street within walking distance of the beach. Ideal vacation spot for a large family.

The Captain's House was a wonderful place to stay while we were in town for a wedding. There were 13 of us and there was plenty of room for everyone. The house is gorgeous with a well stocked kitchen, much better than any other rental I've used. Jeanmarie was very accessible and responsive. I would definitely stay here again given the opportunity.

This wonderful large home easily accommodated my family of 10. Hard to believe it was originally built in the 1880s, since it was so nicely updated! This home is very well stocked with any kitchen items needed, as well as a nice variety of spices. We celebrated the Fourth of July with a barbecue, followed by roasting marshmallows for s’mores at the fire pit. Great memories! Already booked for next year!

This was the perfect house for our family to rent during our holiday in Cape Cod. With our 4 adult children, their spouses and our 4 grandchildren under 4, we never felt cramped for space, loved that we could cook in the big well furnished kitchen and eat together in the spacious dining area. With the seven bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, everyone had their own space and never qa line for the shower. It's location on the cape was also great as we could walk to the beach, cute little village shops, but also close for a quick drive to Hyannis. My family wants to return. Mary

After an amazing week in Centerville, the captains house will be positively etched in the collective memories of Kivney family summer vacations. The house provided all the features we could want, most importantly a tremendous front porch, large yard, fire pit and outdoor dining capabilities. Not to mention the ample living spaces with all the expected comforts of home. Proximity to the recreation center baseball field added a new element to our memories this year as wiffleball heroics will be discussed and embellished for years to come. And, of course, the old standbys: Craigville Beach, Four Seas ice cream and great cape golf courses delivered hours of excitement and fun Thanks So much for sharing your awesome house with us.

4 Generations vacationed together this year and we loved it. The house was simply decorated so fewer worries about moving or breaking things. There was plenty of space and we truly loved the huge table for gathering for dinner, games and always a puzzle. Kitchen is well stocked and checking out was amazingly stress free. Loved the beaches, pond, bridge jumping, ice cream, museums, general store, kickball in the field next door, etc. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

We stayed at The Captain's House with three generations, including seven children and the house was perfect for our large party. We spent most of our time in the rocking chairs on the front porch or around the fire pit on the back patio. The front yard was perfect for the kids to play wiffle ball. The house is close to everything you need, including several beaches and our favorite spot-Joshua's Pond. Property manager was quick to respond when we needed the gas grill repaired for those important grill nights! Grocery store and package store super close as well. If you are looking for an idyllic Cape Cod vacation, this is your house!

The house was beautiful, and everyone really enjoyed themselves despite the rainy weather. The beds were very comfortable and the towels were soft. All the rooms had plenty of space - we had 14 people. The dining room table was massive and was able to accommodate everyone for meals and board games! The kitchen had tons of prep space, including a large center island with a butcher block top. Something I personally appreciated was the legit stove hood which was akin to what you'd find in a commercial kitchen. The kitchen was also well stocked with cooking tools. We liked the way the house was decorated - it felt beachy and cozy without feeling like we were imposing on someone's family home. Some outdoor highlights from our stay included roasting marshmallows at the fire pit, grilling on the patio, and playing cornhole on the beautifully manicured lawns. Jeanmarie was very accommodating and responsive and was an all-around spectacular host. We would definitely stay at The Captain's House again in the future!
