This is a beautiful spot, overlooking a bay with active lobster boats. It’s at the end of a quiet road and very peaceful. There is a little noise from the dock — including a refrigeration unit — but it didn’t disturb us.The house is very comfortable and well stocked. It’s close to many great places to visit — Rockland, Camden, owl’s Head lighthouse, etc. we enjoyed the Clark’s Island Nature Preserve for a walk. And we saw an eagle in the bay! Wonderful place, highly recommended.

Spruce Head - Exceptional rental and host

Our host went above and beyond to provide us with everything needed to make our vacation exceptional. Lobsters delivered to the door were a highlight!!!

Wonderful home base

The view of the Maine coast from the house is simply beautiful, and the working lobster wharf was an added bonus. I loved the location and really enjoyed visiting mid-coast Maine again. Gail was always responsive to any questions and very easy to work with. The place was very clean and had all the necessities. I recommend this rental house.

Wonderful November Get-a-way

We normally never go back to a place for vacation as we want to explore other places. However, this is the perfect place to enjoy a view of a bay and the ocean, watch the comings and goings of the lobster-men, enjoying lobster every day, quiet as the pier is empty during the day, full sunrise and sunsets, clean and modern house, and great host just a phone call away. We will be returning for another get-a-way.

Experience authentic Maine!

My husband, 2 kids (ages 9 & 10), and I had a very lovely stay at this home. It overlooks a lobster wharf, and we had an excellent view of the tides and lobster boats coming in and out. Hungry for lobster? The owners' restaurant is just steps away on the wharf! It's in an excellent location and convenient to Tenant's Harbor, Owl's Head, Camden, Rockland, etc.

A Slice of Heaven

We cannot say enough! This beautiful home, the location, and the surrounding area was everything we hoped it would be. Regardless of the (fabulous) working lobster wharf (my husband sat on the deck all morning to view these men)...you would never think that it would be so quiet and peaceful. We never heard the lobster men coming in to work. Go figure! Thank you Gail and Mark for sharing your home. And, Gail, for your help with the TV and streaming services! We wouldn't have been able to watch our NFL football without your knowledge! You went way above, of above and beyond! Best vacation ever!

Slice of paradise

The pictures do not do this house justice. It's so much better. Gail and Mark are wonderful people. The view is fantastic. We have stayed in about 20 different rental houses. The Millers house is one of the best stocked houses we have rented. All kinds of pots and pans, cleaning supplies, and even quite a few spices. This house is not the Ritz, but it is clean, and very well maintained. If we wanted Lobster all we had to do was call or text Gail and she would drop them by, or let us know when Mark would be coming back and we would walk down to the dock and get them right off his boat. We had lobster every night except one during our stay. There is a big lobster pot at the house for cooking them up. We loved talking to the Millers and learning all about the industry and what went in to getting lobsters to the market. I now know that lobster men have to be the hardest working people in the world. Mark would get up at 3:30AM, leave to get bait. Be to the boat by 5:00 and heading out by 6:00 AM. He would not come back till late afternoon to unload his catch, and clean the boat. If the restaurant on the pier was open he would go there next to help cook, and would be cleaning floors till 9:00PM. Next morning the same thing. Gail made a big thing of the noise in the early morning with all the lobstermen working, but quite honestly I never heard them and most times I was up having coffee and watching all the activity. There is lots of small towns near by and they each have something to see. Just remember there are no straight roads in Maine. We used WAZE to get around. If the distance was 30 miles to where you wanted to go it would take almost an hour to get there. Just double the miles and you will be pretty close in minutes. ALL the locals drive no more than 5 MPH over the speed limit. They do not pass, and they always follow at least 5 car lengths behind. I found that very refreshing. Boothbay Harbour was my favorite. The Miller's house is fantastic if you just want to relax, take in the beautiful views, and do some sight seeing. Thank you Gail and Mark for a wonderful trip, and for sharing your home with us.

The Perfect Place

Gail is a great host. As a lifelong resident of area she was very helpful providing information about the area. The host is as described and better. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. Actually it is the best stocked vacation home we have ever rented. Great view of the harbor with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Don’t miss the Keag store, great little place.

The Quarry House on Wheeler Bay was Wonderful!

We loved everything about our stay at the Quarry House on Wheeler Bay. The location just can’t be beat. Hands down the best view we’ve ever had! Gail and Mark were great hosts, anticipating our every need and responding to any questions we had so quickly. The house and kitchen were clean, spacious and well equipped, and we enjoyed cooking most of our meals “at home.” Gail even gave us perfect instructions for our first lobster cooking experience, and we enjoyed the delicious Miller Lobster on several occasions. We loved exploring the area around Spruce Head and beyond, but our favorite activity was relaxing on the deck enjoying sunrises, sunsets the comings & goings of the lobster fishermen and their boats, and the peaceful stillness in between. Thank you, Gail and Mark, for a truly unique & beautiful Maine experience. We’ll be back!

The Greatest

The house is perfect. Perfect location on the water watching the tide change and the lobstermen work. The kitchen is so well stocked that there was nothing I desired that wasn't there. It is also big and has a lovely wood floor, as does the entire house. Both beds were super comfortable (and I am picky). Everything was clean. The hostess was very helpful - quick to answer her phone/messages. I almost don't want to tell how nice it is because there probably won't be a vacancy when I want it!
