About this property
Welcome to The Captain and Crew Quarters on Anchor Drive at Apple Valley Lake!
Thank you for choosing The Captain and Crew Quarters at Apple Valley Lake for your Knox County getaway. The whole lower level is yours to enjoy as well as the fenced-in pet friendly* back yard and the upper rear deck (access from lower rear level). This is not a shared home! The upstairs (main floor) consists of 4 commercial office space units (non-residential). You can expect very little activity upstairs on the weekends and weekday evenings. The entrance to the Quarters is located on the lower rear of the property. You follow the new, private, ADA compliant (no stairs) cement walkway/ramp located on the north side of the building (the side away from 36/Coshocton Rd facing Witt’s Frozen Custard/Subway) down the north side, through the new fence gate backyard entrance, and then follow the path to the lower back patio/entrance. It's a short walk with no stairs. We have spent well over a year on the interior and exterior of the lower level to prepare for your stay. Our goal was to have a very enjoyable space with modern and extra conveniences/comforts at an affordable price. This private property located in the front of Apple Valley is minutes to the Apple Valley Golf Course, Gambier and Kenyon College, Kokosing Camp and Canoe Livery, and walking distance to the Shell Gas Station, The Pub at Apple Valley, Apple Valley Lake, and of course Subway and Witt’s Frozen Custard is in the adjacent property right up the street on Anchor Drive. Knox and Coshocton counties also provide many other indoor and outdoor adventures outside of this immediate area that are just a short drive away. Many of those are listed in the booklet provided in the Quarters. We are a local family owner/operator of Knox County and hope you enjoy The Captain and Crew Quarters as much as we do.
*(Be sure to enter number of pets in reservation details - $50 fee per pet/per stay).

Very comfortable! The beautiful Christmas tree and holiday touches throughout really made the stay memorable. The hot tub and fire pit were super great bonuses and the shower was perfection!
This was a wonderful place for our family and dogs to stay while we were visiting for an athletic event at Kenyon. The home is well stocked with everything we needed and everything our dogs needed too! It's clean and comfortable. We'll be back.
Wanted to get out of town and explore with my wife and two boys. Property was quiet, clean, and very enjoyable. Looking forward to coming back in the summer!
The property was very clean and had all the basic amenities of home. Owners were very responsive to all communication. The location was ideal for my visit. Would definitley stay here again.
Great place to stay if we get the opportunity again we would choose it again. Only thing I’d like to change about it is a washer and dryer! Otherwise great location to everything and nice and clean.
While it is under businesses, there was no one up there the whole weekend. It was quiet and relaxing. Really is a nice place to stay. Food and gas stations close by. I would definitely chose to stay here again.
This was a perfect spot for a couple of family members to sleep during our family reunion at a house on the lake. Very clean & comfortable! Close to our other family members. Great location!
Property is well maintained. Very clean and comfortable. The hosts were very responsive to any questions we had. Hot tub was great. We would definitely stay again. Only downside is that it is beside a main road so vehicle traffic is loud when outside, that wasn't an issue for us, just something to be aware of.
Stayed here for a week with the family while in town for a Nationals Competition. Good location, clean, quick/easy check-in/out process and the Owners were nice/responsive. Hot tub was a plus, and all maintenance items were provided. Wasn't sure about sharing the house with commercial space upstairs but was never an issue. The kitchen layout was a bit awkward but provided the necessities. Missed not having a washer/dryer by the end of the week but overall a good option for a quick stay when in the area.
Start to finish everything was wonderful. We visit Apple Valley at least once a year and plan to stay here each time. The property was very safe despite being on the main road. The tall fence provided the perfect amount of privacy in the yard for my toddler. Inside everything was exactly like the pictures and very spacious. Owners provided advance notice of check in instructions and promptly responded to my 2 questions about the hot tub during my stay. I have no negative feedback to provide, just a thank you!

This was the perfect place to stay for our family of 4. It was very convenient and close to all of our other families homes! The house was very nice and well taken care of! 100% recommend!
We stayed here while visiting family in the area. Everything was clean and very nicely presented. Communication was easy and so was the check in and out process. The rental fit our needs for a quick weekend trip! Thanks again!
