PLEASE READ BEFORE REQUESTING A RESERVATION:
I receive a large amount of spambot attempts at reservations which hold up space on the calendar. So please provide the full names of you and your spouse, co traveler or guest and where you are traveling from. I would also like to know whether you have visited Rockland before so I can provide you with the best experience possible, especially if you are here for an anniversary or birthday! After booking, I will be asking you to upload copies of your driver's licenses.
This is one guest suite in a single family occupied home. There is a private entrance to the guest suite that no one else will be using during your stay. Completely contact free check in and check out.
I have also hosted remote working guests in and out of season, just ask if that is something you are interested in.
Safe travels,
Cecelia

About the host
Hosted by Cecelia Dove
I've been an owner of Captain Hugo's Guest House since 2002. The history of both the house and the town has always held a fascination for me and I love to give travelers the opportunity see it for themselves. Rockland is a wonderful town, rich in history and art and I am sure you will enjoy it as much as I do.
Why they chose this property
The location and the quaint feel of the guest room. Oh, and Edward Hopper stayed here in 1926. See unique benefits below.
Low key, no pressure stay. Let yourselves in and out, private entrance and bath. No contact, but if you see me in the yard weeding, I'll say hello and ask if you need anything.

What makes this property unique
For those travelers who have an interest in art, Edward Hopper used the living room (circa 1926) as subject matter in a painting titled 'Mrs. Achorns Parlor' which now belongs to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The living room in the painting is now the guest suite. He apparently had a fascination with New England boarding houses and stayed here with Mrs. Acorn who was the owner at the time and rented out rooms.
