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.

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.
