The hospitality and food at the Captain House was top-notch, but we were somewhat disappointed at the decor of our room. It was too cluttered and although it was the largest of the rooms, there wasn't a place to put our suitcase for unpacking. Overall our stay was nice, but I would have liked a bit simpler room (too victorian)... more

A friend and I spent two nights at the Captains House booking it from the internet descriptions. The house had lots of history from the 1800's. The owners were friendly and gave good background on the history. The interior was very disappointing having stayed in other B&B's. The furnishings and decor were not up to par for the period of... more

Loved the location of this property! We could enjoy the view of the lake as well as being just a couple of blocks from the square. The room was inviting, quiet, peaceful and the food was awesome!! They also were very accommodating with making arrangements for us for the activities that we wanted to do throughout our stay. We would... more

My husband and I had a wonderful experience at the Captain's House in Granbury. Bob and Liz Hayes were gracious and friendly from the first "hello" and we were made to feel completely at home. We stayed in the Mary Kay Doyle "Honeymoon" Suite and it was so inviting and comfortable. There was a special "Welcome" sign in our room... more

The view of the lake from the wraparound porch was the best part of our recent stay at the Captain's House. Like most of the B&Bs in Granbury, the price of admission is greater than B&Bs located elsewhere in Texas -- because of the location. Not only does the Captain's House overlook the lake, it is also within walking distance... more

From the moment of our arrival, my wife and I felt at home. The gracious hosts met us with a smile and were so friendly and helpful. The accommodations were excellent. Breakfast was served in our room and it was absolutely superb! Our room had a marvelous view of the lake. I would definitely recommend the Captain's House on the... more

We were pleased to find out that Bob and Liz were going to do their best to carry on the excellent service given by the previous owners, Bob and Julia. The recipes were passed on, so the food was again excellent! The beds were still warm,cozy and very comfortable. The scenery from that top balcony can not be beat, and... more

My wife and I stayed one night at the Captain's House in Granbury Texas, and it was very enjoyable. We had the MK Doyle suite. Bob and Liz were perfect hosts; on arrival we received a tour of the wonderfully restored 1890 house. The room was immaculate and historic (Victorian) at the same time. The bed was comfortable and beautiful.... more
