Property Overview

Just one block from the beach, Captain Stannard is more than an inn—it’s an experience. Built in 1872 as a residence, its storied past welcomed its first guests in 1902 as an Inn. It has operated as a dance hall, antique store, and restaurant, and now returns its origins as a home of a seafaring captain. Welcome aboard to our family-owned inn where you are invited to indulge in the perfect blend of coastal charm, farmhouse elegance, and the breezy sophistication of yacht rock vibes. Whether you’re lounging on the Portside deck, strolling to the beach, getting cozy by the fireplace, or relaxing in the comfort of your uniquely designed room, life at Captain Stannard feels like a timeless getaway.

A haven for travelers, history buffs, and anyone seeking a peaceful getaway. Our innkeepers have lovingly preserved the building’s charm while adding modern comforts to enhance your stay. Its quirky hallways and passages tell the story of its amazing past. From its gracious porches to its warm, inviting rooms, every detail has been curated to honor the past and celebrate the present.
