We were a group of four women - friends for several decades, former high school classmates. The house is spacious and in a great location. We were close to museums, lighthouses, and other attractions. We had a wonderful visit to the Owls Head/Rockland area!

We had a pleasant stay in this property. It was comfortable and nice to have the amenities of a home available. Great communication from the owner. It was close to the coast and nice for walking. Our one disappointment was that two of the bedrooms did not have air conditioning. They had fans but August gets hotter than fans can handle.Overall, it was a great stay and we would be happy to return to the property when we return to mid coast Maine.

The property listing is accurate. The house was very clean and well organized. We had a question in the beginning and the host responded immediately with a helpful answer. There is a beautiful view of the water on the other side of the road. The house is situated perfectly between Rockland, where we attended the LobsterFest, and Owls Head that has a beautiful lighthouse. There is a large yard as well. We had a great experience and highly recommend this property.

Easy access to Rockland, Camden, Booth Bay for Boat Trip to see the Puffins. Plenty of seafood restaurants and shacks and list of shops to browse. Good access to book sailing cruise. House generally clean though bathroom sinks would benefit from bleach for mold around drains. All bed rooms on second floor with moderately steep steps. Plenty of room to spread out in the house for large family or multiple couples. Nice yard. Disappointed with water access eg from map and description ocean is just across the street. You can see it but have to drive to a nearby beach. All considered we had a good vacation there.

Everything was great. Only thing was that the entry code mechanism was a little tricky, that is, there appeared to be little feedback when pressing each number. That’s a very minor item.
