Nestled in Cape Elizabeth, this charming house for $700 per night is a great option for your next trip. Captains Cove is located in the quiet coastal community of Broad Cove in historic Cape Elizabeth, ME. Found on the southeast corner of Cape Elizabeth, the summer sea breeze brings cooling comfort, salty scents and sounds from the ocean daily. The neighborhood is perfect for morning walks to the local rocky Broad Cove beach to watch sunrise and arriving and departing ships, while enjoying a morning cup of coffee. The neighborhood also features a Greenbelt trail which offers easy trail walking / hiking through the woods, with the sounds of birds chirping and woodpeckers working away on the trees. The close proximity to the ocean and the quiet of the neighborhood were the biggest attractions for our expanding family. Captains Cove features one Master bedroom with ensuite bathroom, one twin and one double bedroom which share a full bathroom on the second floor. There is a roomy eat in kitchen, with a dining room, living room, laundry room and 1/2 bath on the first floor. The living room has a game / puzzle table and large, comfy sectional couch, perfect for reading, listening to music, or taking a restorative vacation nap. On the ground level there is a comfortable family room, with vintage Ms. PacMan table, couch, game table, large flat screen TV, a Queen bedroom and full bathroom. When not using the family room space for the entire household, it makes for a nice private suite for guests. Outside there is a large walk out patio with large sectional couch, swivel chairs and table for outdoor living. Plentiful sunshine in the afternoon lends itself to stretching out on the couch with a good book. In the evening there is lighting over the patio to continue your outdoor time after returning from the beach. There is an outdoor propane heater for cooler nights under the lights on the patio. For the beach enthusiasts, Captains Cove is close to several beaches and state parks. Enjoy biking to Two Lights State Park, Kettle Cove Beach, or Crescent Beach State Park. Kettle Cove Beach is a family favorite for a cooling dip after dinner on a hot summer night, usually followed up with a visit to the Kettle Cove Creamery and Shack for an ice cream. Of course you can totally bypass the swim and go for a bike ride straight for the ice cream if that suits you as well! In addition to Ice Cream the Shack Cafe offers other items such as burgers, fries, coffee and espresso drinks during the day.
