Nestled along the serene shoreline of Chincoteague Bay in Greenbackville, Virginia, Captains Cove is more than just a neighborhood—it’s a lifestyle. Designed for those who crave a blend of laid-back coastal charm and vibrant resort-style amenities, this one-of-a-kind community by our team at Gemcraft Homes invites you to settle in and slow down, without giving up the excitement and convenience that you crave.
A Waterfront Haven with Endless Possibilities
Situated in Accomack County, near the Maryland state line, Captains Cove offers scenic views, peaceful surroundings and direct access to the bay. Whether you’re after a permanent residence, a second home or a vacation-worthy retreat, there’s room for everyone here. With 19 thoughtfully designed floor plans available, our team at Gemcraft Homes provides options for every stage of life and lifestyle—from cozy cottages to spacious family homes.
Resort Amenities Just Outside Your Front Door
Life at Captains Cove feels like a year-round getaway, and this community is loaded with top-tier amenities that rival any resort. The Marina Club is the social heart of the neighborhood, home to a full-service restaurant and lounge where you can enjoy a delicious meal with water views. On a sunny day, cool off in one of the two outdoor swimming pools—one at the Marina Club and one at the Town Center—and when the weather turns, head to the additional Marina Club indoor pool for a swim no matter the season.
The neighborhood is also fully equipped with a fitness center, tennis courts and basketball courts that offer a variety of ways for homeowners to stay in motion. Golfers will love the Captains Cove Golf Course, a beautifully maintained course that promises challenge and enjoyment for all skill levels. Boating enthusiasts will also feel right at home. Dock your vessel at your private waterfront home, rent a slip near the Yacht Club or launch from the convenient community boat ramp. Whether you’re into fishing, kayaking or just enjoying the water views, Captains Cove makes it easy to embrace life on the bay.
A Community That Feels Like Home
The community is built with connection in mind—whether it’s gathering with neighbors, friends and family in the banquet hall, watching your kids play on the outdoor playground or letting your pup burn off energy in the dog park. Captains Cove is a place where every member of the family has space to belong.
While the community feels like a peaceful escape, you’re never far from fun. Ocean City and Salisbury, MD are just a 45-minute drive away and you’re only 20 minutes from the charm of Pocomoke City—known as “The Friendliest Town on the Eastern Shore.” If you’re up for a day trip, Assateague Island, Chincoteague, Wallops Island, Cape Charles, and even Virginia Beach are all within reach.
