Property Description
Set in the historic section of Greenport village, the Captain’s House, built in 1820, is an elegant and charming 3 bedroom, 2 bath home ready to enjoy, especially for a summer getaway or a cozy holiday retreat. It's a 3 block walk into town and a short bike ride or drive to all the area beaches, wineries and treasure finding.
The Captain’s House is in the perfect location for those who’d like to leave the car at home and wander into town to visit shops, wine bars and restaurants. It's even a 10 minute walk from or the Jitney/train.
There are three bedrooms (one with a queen bed, one with 2 twins or king and a smaller 3rd bedroom with a full bed) and two full bathrooms, one with a washer/dryer that is on the ground floor. There are two comfortable living rooms, one with a fireplace and large color TV with Netflix, Amazon Prime, Smart TV as well as a selection of puzzles and board games for all ages. There is a TV in the master bedroom as well. Attached to the living room is a formal dining room with a farm table that seats 8 for those chilly or hot evenings better spent inside.
For the ultimate chef, the home has a fully stocked kitchen with Cuisinart appliances, a Garland stove, every utensil imaginable as well as all dining-ware. There is no need to bring sheets, towels or beach towels, it’s all here. For those with small children, note that I do not toddler-proof the house, remove the nicknacks, etc. so keep that in mind when renting!
There is a very large and beautifully landscaped backyard complete with a 'Secret Garden" hidden in the far back of the property overlooking a zen fountain. Attached to the house is a back deck with a charcoal and a gas grill and an outdoor garden shower. Dining al fresco with friends and family a the patio dining area allows room for entertaining.

Perfect Location with Amazing Backyard
We stayed for a week and enjoyed every single thing about this home! The house feels loved and lived in and makes you feel like you’re staying with friend or family, not a sterile rental! The bedrooms are all a good size and beds were all very comfortable! The gorgeous renovated kitchen was a joy to cook meals in and the backyard was perfect! We enjoyed days and nights on the deck and in the secret garden! The location was perfect for walking to Front St restaurants and shops, ferry to Shelter Island and LIRR station. Hosts were so quick to respond and answer any questions that came up! Would definitely stay again!

Easy walk to town
What a beautiful house to stay! The interior design and decorating are just stunning and the backyard oasis is amazing. It’s only a couple of blocks to downtown Greenport and the perfect location to set off each day for wine tastings. We love traveling with our two small dogs and we’re so grateful to be able to bring them. It made our entire week in Greenport all that much better!

Wonderful Oasis in Greenport
We had a wonderful stay at Marcia’s beautiful house in Greenport. Marcia was incredibly welcoming and accommodating and the house was perfect for our trip. The location is ideal - a short walk to everything the NoFo has to offer. Marcia was very responsive and gave great recommendations. We will definitely be back!
