Great location and setting

The quiet setting was perfect and restful. The location near Rockland was very convenient for the day trips to Camden, Acadia National Park, and the Maine Coastal Gardens.The house allowed us to have separate bedrooms and baths, which was important for us. The home is comfortable and well cared for.Sue, the property manager, responded immediately to our inquiries and to a glitch with the cable TV. She was kind and excellent to work with.

Relax at Owls Head for your coastal Maine adventures.

Owls Head Retreat is a perfect location to explore coastal Maine. This home is in a lovely quiet neighborhood, beautifully decorated, emaculatly clean and well supplied to relax and enjoy our stay. There was more than adequate kitchen, bathroom and laundry supplies. We did appreciate the entry at the garage which made hauling in our goods very easy. Each bedroom had plenty of space and it's own heating, making sleeping extra comfortable. Night lights through the house were much appreciated. The instructions left for our stay and check out instructions were quite clear. Both the manager and owner were responsive to our questions. For added fun visit The Owls Head General Store for coffee, food and gifts. And, if you are fortunate enough to have a forecast for the Northern Lights we found Crocket Point an excellent location for viewing. We whole heartedly recommend this Owls Head Retreat for your Maine adventures. Until our next visit - Cheers.

Clean property

The house was excellent. Everything was so clean. While it was a short trip for us, the house had everything we needed. If you plan on making more meals at the house the kitchen was very well stocked. Easy to talk to the property manager if needed. If we’re back in the area would definitely rent this place again.

End of summer vacation!

The house was a perfect place for our family. We had 4 adults a 12 and 14 yr old. The sleeping arrangements were perfect. The house had everything you could imagine needing, from kitchen spices, to laundry room and bathroom supplies. The welcome book mentioned everything you would need to make your vacation stress free. We took a lot of the advice on favorite places to visit and the best place (Jess’s Market) for your lobster meal! Owls Head is a great location for base camp being mid-coast, 2 hrs to Bar Harbor and 2 hrs to Portland. We were able to enjoy a lot of day trips. Both Deb (House manager) and Pat (owner) returned emails quickly when we had questions/concerns. We would definitely stay here again!

Maine in the fall

We took a fall vacation to enjoy the New England fall foliage; however, mother nature had different ideas. Due to warm and dry weather the fall foliage peak was 1 - 2 weeks behind schedule. With that said, it did not hinder our trip. The hosts of the Owls Head VRBO were every so kind to leave suggestions for visitors and we had a great time. This was a great location, clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Would definitely recommend this location.
