Owls Head, Maine
This custom-built, family-owned house has been meticulously maintained since the 1970's for use by both the owners and vacation renters. Most of the windows and the spacious deck look out upon peaceful Penobscot Bay. The house is on a dead-end private street with very little traffic, surrounded by trees, flowers, nature and quiet. The coastline is rugged and rocky, the beautiful rocky shore for which Maine is famous. This is a perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the tourist destinations of Coastal Route 1.
Yet, renters will find themselves only 10 minutes away from some of the best activities and sights Maine has to offer. The busy and quaint destinations of Rockland and Camden are only 10-30 minutes away. Owls Head Light, Birch Point State Park, The Farnsworth Museum, Camden Hills State Park, and many more classic Maine destinations are a short distance just down the road. Rockland boasts great restaurants, cafes, and shops. The Penobscot Bay is great for sea kayaking, sailing, boating, and swimming. There is a boat ramp less than 10 minutes away. Owls Head is a great destination for bicycling and beachcombing/shelling. Community tennis courts are only a 5 minute drive away. There is something for everyone!
The house has all the benefits of home, from the fully-equipped kitchen to offering pots for cooking your lobster feast - and cozy beds for all the youngsters. The living room is equipped with cable TV and wireless internet. On a cool fall evening, you will be treated to blazing foliage. In winter, you can cross country ski out the front door. No matter what time of year you visit or what you like to enjoy, you will feel right at home here!

A delightful home located on the shore of Penobscott Bay. The home possesses all that one needs for a two week stay on the mid-coast of Maine. Sunrises and sunsets were absolutely beautiful; and the home is well-situated for short trips to nearby towns and attractions.
A very peaceful place with a great view of the water and everything you need to be comfortable over a long stay.
Bedroom, bath and four beds in a separate room with a master bedroom and bath on the first floor on a very quiet deadend street on the water. Manager lives a few blocks away.and.is very helpful. Reasonable.price for what you get. Highest recommendation!
For the third year this was a wonderful vacation spot. Close to town but away. Love sitting on deck with coffee and a good book. I cannot ask for more. Thank you. Hope to return next year.
The view is to die for. Spent a lot of time sitting on the back porch just looking out on Penobscot Bay. The property was spotless. Comfortable and a great layout. Terrific location. Did not want to leave. Loved it.
We had a wonderful time. This was our second time at this cottage. The view is excellent. The property is quiet. The kitchen is well equipped. We slept very well. I loved the flowers that welcomed us. We would stay jere again and can recommend this cottage to others.
The pictures are all very accurate. You can sit on the deck and hear the water lapping on to the rocks. We even saw a deer in the back yard. The kitchen was well stocked with Cookware and utensils. Bedrooms were large and mattresses and pillows were very comfortable. Everything was very clean. A delightful 3 day stay and a place for future vacations.
This was a great find. Beautiful location, just remote enough - yet a quick drive to restaurants, shops, and other sites. House well maintained with all the necessary amenities. Very comfortable place to relax and get away from the grind.
Would stay here again. We were greeted with lovely flowers on the table. The kitchen is nice with lots of counter space.
This is the 2nd time we stayed here. We really love the quiet location, the great view, cool salt water breeze, wild life, and the layout of the house. I also like the large fully equiped kitchen with oversized counters. It made cooking very enjoyable and there was plenty of counter space. This year we discovered an Osprey nest next door that we could see from the back deck. It was amazing to see the mother fly over the deck to bring back freshly caught fish from the ocean to feed her babies. One morning the deer were right in the back yard grazing. It is an amazing location right on the ocean.
