The cottage was so cozy and the location was perfect- we sat and had a fire on the water several nights, cooked smores. The weather was fantastic, we travelled along the coast to our favorite spots and some new ones as well - good location right in the middle of. The host communicated with us so well and was very gracious- we felt right at home, plenty of everything. Thanks for a lovely stay.

We had a wonderful family gathering in Owls Head- the house and cottage were both comfortable, with everything you need. The setting was gorgeous and peaceful. Paul was an excellent host. Communication was easy, and very pleasant and response was quick. All in all, it was great.

We found this home to be very comfortable. We greatly enjoyed our stay there. We so enjoyed the view of the water and the woodland setting. The host was very responsive when the TV lacked Wi-Fi connection. This was probably the most beautiful autumn colors we have ever seen as native New Englanders. The drives through the back country roads were simply spectacular. --MarionAgree strongly with my wife. Sorry for the very delayed review but my medical dance card was tight for past two weeks, plus a family Memorial gathering in NH. I found the place funky (in style not cleanliness!), the kitchen a masterpiece from a New Yorker cartoon (that's a huge plus), and all those carpets? The incredible massive table? You'll never find a place like it. Had problems in the dusk light getting the ancient door code hardware to do its job; thought the description of upstairs needed detail; and no hot water for the tub, Return in a heartbeat. --David

Maine Getaway

We had a wonderful time at the cottage. It was a great launching point for exploring the area and we enjoyed leisurely mornings playing on the beach. Would definitely highly recommend!

As always, a cozy stay at the shore of Owl’s Head. It’s a unique cottage and close enough to any amenity as to be an easy drive if you need something say within 15-20 minutes, but far enough away to afford real calm, quiet, privacy. We’ve always appreciated the cozy first floor den with multiple couches and window views out to the horizon. Exploring coastal Maine is easy when you have such a relaxing home base to recharge within!

Peaceful Paradise!

The home, ocean, and neighborhood are all exquisite and Owl's Head's energy is magical. The home has all the comforts of home and the (practically) private beach is the most fabulous part!

Everything we needed (and then some!) was onsite and ready to provide us with a most relaxing week. The private, quiet location, right on the water, is exceptional. The tasteful, quality furnishings made us feel right at home as soon as we walked in. Communication with our host was easy and straightforward. The location is central to many mid-coastal activities and restuarants as well. It was exactly the vacation week we were hoping for!

lovely week by the ocean in May!

We rented this house for four people for a week and loved waking up having coffee by the ocean. The house is has a well equipped kitchen and plenty of cozy space. Paul was super communicative and helpful. Thank you!

Our happy place

This was our 2nd year at the cottage. We enjoyed our week last year so much that we returned for four weeks this year. It truly is our happy place. Nothing more relaxing than sitting on beach watching the bald eagles, boats sailing by, and the landscape changing with the tides. Paul is an amazing host. We cannot thank him enough for sharing this place with us.

Beautiful setting

The place is very much as depicted in the web site -- cozy, charming, peaceful. It is very convenient to Rockland and there is a short walk in the Ash Point Reserve not more than a minute down the road. Paul was very responsive to requests (the woodpile had been depleted by the prior guest and he was quick to replenish it).

Such a comfortable home!

The location is perfect. The yard had room to play. The beach is beautiful, rocky at high tide and sandy at low tide- just like a Maine beach should be. we used the fire pit many times. The beds were super comfortable. Lots of utensils and kitchen gadgets to get meals prepared. It was our second stay and we plan to be back!

Wonderful Maine home

This property is wonderful. The location to the water and access to a beach was the best part of the week. The home is lovely and clean! Paul is so nice to work with and really cares about your stay. We had blues sky’s all week and watched amazing fireworks from a neighbor a few doors down. Lobster, sunshine, boating swimming and family. A perfect week!

Look no further for pure relaxation

Spent an amazing week here. The cottage is quaint and its location cannot be beat. Loved waking up to coffee while watching the sunrise over the water and the birds. The older kids loved the fire right in the beach. The property was meticulously landscaped further adding to its charm. Paul was an amazing host and great to deal with. He nailed all the recommendations, especially Jess’s Market for fresh seafood. You can’t go wrong with this place.

Peace out

We really needed a break as a family and this was perfection. Comfortable, unique, charming, and well equipped with quality furniture and a stunning view. Room for some aggressive badminton 😁 followed by a cocktail and beach bonfire. Central location, good shower, great table for dinner and crafting. Our girls loved having upstairs to themselves. Truly a delight.

Owl’s Head Vacation

The house was charming and comfortable. We were blessed with about five sunny days…wonderful after coming from a very rainy summer. Disappointed that the house was not actually in a private setting on the water…pictures seemed to indicate a more private and picturesque setting. Our host bent over backwards to take care of anything that needed to be taken care of…

We were excited to stay at this highly rated cottage with our adult children. The location is absolutely beautiful—peaceful, scenic, and perfect for exploring the area. The main cottage is cozy and well-furnished, though the Mission-style beds and pillows were extremely firm and not very comfortable. The kitchen is charming and well-equipped, but a bit cluttered and tight for cooking. Appliances worked fine despite some wear. Every traveler has different preferences, and I wanted to share ours to balance the glowing reviews.
