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).

Relaxing

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.

Perfection !!

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!

Great Weekend Getaway

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.

Great, clean space!

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!
