About this house rental


Captains View is a cozy two bedroom beach house overlooking the southern beach and bay of Cherokee Sound. Beach chairs and lay off chairs are nice for relaxing in the sun . The kayaks make for good fun over the shallow water or to fish from . Also included is bikes for sight seeing or trips to the grocery store .
The arrangement of a 14ft boat and outboard motor is your option .This rental boat can give you access to areas , beaches , channels , shoreline that are not able to be walked to .The front porch is definitely the most frequently used area of the home partly because of the view but also because it provides a shady, secluded, breezy spot to relax during your vacation. It is the perfect place to have your morning coffee, read a book in the afternoon, or retire after a long day of bone fishing. The Pro kayak is a nice addition for fishing the shallows .

The House is situated only a few footsteps away from the Long Dock where you can swim ,fish ,tan ,picnic and relax. There are many flat sand bars to walk on during the low tides; they are great places to find beautiful shells and sea life . Early tides bring in the fish including the allusive 'Bonefish' that rome freely along the shallow banks of Southern Bay. 'The Long Dock ' and its uncounted wooden pieces has with stood many hurricanes sometimes with little reconstruction needed . This dock is a pillar for the community and is loved by the residents, as well as non residents , both old and young, have helped maintain its condition giving them use and enjoyment. There is loads of history to be found around Cherokee from the early days of the settlement so make sure to bring your walking tennis .There are networks of uncharted paths from several hundred of years ago to be explored . There was wooden boats ,vessels and smacks built for many years on the shore of the inner creek. The art work on the living room wall will reveal that time period . You can learn more stories like this by meeting friendly locals of Cherokee and hearing about the history of this place.

Guests can request access to Watching Bay beach, on the ocean side through a private development 'The Reserve at Watching bay '. There is property for sale , with a variety of vacant lot locations .This is all within walking distance, but bicycles are great for riding through town, especially if you need to go to the grocery store. You can also rent a vehicle in Marsh Harbour beforehand to get around the island in if you wish to leave Cherokee Settlement.

The uniqueness of this home is not only what it does have but it doesn’t have. By separating yourself from a land line phone (which we do not have in the home!) you can find other ways to entertain yourselves. Cell phones do work if needed . However, keep in mind that there is free wireless internet access available so you can bring your business with you if you insist! Cable TV will give and added option for relazation and news information if needed . We hope you will come enjoy a peaceful vacation with the ones you love at Captains View in Cherokee.

Glenn’s place made our entire trip!! The pictures don’t do it justice — there is so much to explore right out your front door. Miles of flats to walk during low tide. Gorgeous sand bars and crystal clear water, and we loved spotting all the marine life. The house itself was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The ACs worked incredibly well. This is a place (and a host) that you will feel good about spending your money at — totally recommend!

This was our 5th stay at Captain's View for a couple of men chasing bonefish in the Bahamas. That should tell you alot right there. It's a very comfortable and functional house with good air conditioning. The view from the front porch is exceptional in my opinion. The Long Dock out front is a fantastic local attraction. Cherokee is a nice quiet little town with a couple of stores. Glenn, the owner, does a great job keeping the house in shape. The bathroom has been recently remodeled. It's a nice clean house on a nice lot and is beautifully decorated with a vary of local art pieces. Looking forward to my next trip there!

A very enjoyable property.Located right next to Long Dock in Cherokee, beautiful views, very clean, well-maintained, well-equipped. Modern appliances, comfortable beds, well-lit, with fans and AC.(Only minor draw-back, needs adequate clothesline). Owner nearby, friendly and helpful. Local grocery and gas station nearby. Very friendly, but still private, quiet neighborhood. Over all a very good choice.
