Response from the owner Dear Ben, At Captain Alexander’s one of the ways we make your vacation special is by us trying to accommodate your concerns We were more then happy to allow your family to leave your car on our property as you use the day to enjoy the beach the day of checkout and still use our outside shower later in the day to clean up and head off Cape. Thanks for writing a review and look forward to hosting you in the future.

Response from the owner Dear Guest, Thanks for your taking time out of your busy day to day life and posting a review of the Crows Nest at Captain. Alexander’s. One of the most important reasons vacation families choose Captain Alexander’s is our proximity to Earle Road Beach only 3 tenth of a mile from our front door. Over the 30 plus years that we have been in the vacation business we have strived to make our listings accurate, and also provide information about what’s happening and available to you on Cape Cod even before your arrival. The small fishing village at Harwichport is only 1 mile form our rental. There you will find many fine restaurants, live theater, charter boats, golf and yes even trampoline for kids. Once again thank you for your review as it helps many people decide where to rent when vacationing in old Cape Cod. Yours truly Captain Edwards

Response from the owner Dear Julia, Thanks for taking the time to write a review. We are not sure you have all your fax together. For example we never accused you of taking a blanket this is what I sent you on Airbnb and they have a copy of it. “Dear Julia the scenic blanket that was on the back of the sofa is missing Do you know where it got put? Thanks for your help in this item. The Crew at Captain Alexander’s”. And this was your response. “All the blankets should be there. We used one of the blankets in the bedroom and it was left on the bed. Do you have a picture of it so I know which one you are referring to?”. And then my respond to you. “We did find it. It was the one on the sofa with the water front scene. Thanks.” We don’t see any accusations in this conversation. Also our listing saids it is an upstairs unit and our managers We’re a conference Thursday Friday Saturday and Sunday during your stay. Have no ideal about your not using the yard which is completely separate from the first floor home. Also Ben texted you about the pillows and sheets for the 2 extra kids being in the closet of the master bedroom and you texted him back thank you. We have a lot of messages back and forth from you to Ben. Ben had told me you were going to be upset because you thought it was a single family home. And he was right. Anyway we tryed to make your stay enjoyable and even made room for the 2 extra kids. By the way I personal went out a brought 2 new pillows. Yours Truly Captain Edwards.
