Beautiful Cottage, great location
Beautiful little cottage. Great location. Views were spectacular from the deck. Peaceful area, and still close to Rockland for additional amenities needed.
The cottage was in a beautiful location, fully furnished with everything we needed and had more room than we needed!! We enjoyed spending time in Rockland and Camden. Would definitely recommend for a quiet, relaxing retreat.
This house feels like it could share a novel of memories. Although it is older, it is well maintained and well equipped.

Peaceful retreat
Wonderful property for a quiet retreat. Comfortable living room and great outdoor space on both the deck and around the fire pit. Remodeled bathroom has large shower. A cozy home that is just minutes away from shops and restaurants in Rockland. We had a wonderful visit and would definitely recommend this property for its location and serenity.
Stayed just for an overnight, but it was super relaxing. We (family of 5) all had room to stretch and relax after a long drive. Location was great and right down the street from the lighthouse and the Harbor Park. Inside was extremely cozy and cute. Only issue was where to put our trash on the way out, but the owners were quick to respond to my question and it was an easy fix. Thanks for having us.
Great location if your looking for seafood, lobster facility across street that will sell lobsters right off the boat, very quiet street, lots of seafood restaurants all around, light house adventures one on the same road as this home. The only downfall about this property is there is only 1 bathroom and its on the second floor with bedrooms other than that it was fantastic, also transportation museum on route 73 about 4 miles from home lots to see there also. It is and older home with a huge yard to play games in we played jarts and bocce had a great time with grandchildren.
Wonderful seeing the sea and feeling the breeze. House is warm, cozy, and inviting. If you are looking for a place to relax and enjoy, look no further.

Quiet Getaway
House was perfect and cozy. Beds were great and there was ample space, with a full kitchen. Near the beach, restaurants and activities. The deck, fire pit and grill were nice touches. 5 stars.
Other than a few cobwebs, the house was clean, organized and had everything we needed for a great visit.

Charming cottage
Wonderfully, charming cottage! The house had ample beds and spaces to sit and read or watch TV. Deck is spacious and there is a spot to build a fire. Close walk to a cute little lighthouse and up the street from the Owls head general store! House was comfortable and we’ll be sure to return when we are back in the area!
Amazing quiet location walking distance to Owl's Head Light
We loved staying here because of the location. Lighthouse, beaches, buying lobster right out of the ocean, sunrise and sunset ocean views, a quaint general store... were all within walking distance. 15 min drive to Rockland, the art capital of Maine. Everything at the house was as described.
The pictures are accurate and this place is lovely. Owners were very quick to respond to communication, and I didn’t have any problems during my visit, but if I had, it was nice to know they were on top of the correspondence. The only thing I would mention is that the bathroom is on the second floor and the shower door can be difficult to open, so if someone in your group has mobility issues, this might not be the place for you.
Beautiful property on level grassy lawn about 1/4 mile from the Owls Head General store and Lobster Pound. House has that old Maine camp feel but very charming. Nice large deck for enjoying reading and taking in the setting.
Large living room, dbl bedroom downstairs and 2 good sized bedrooms on the second floor. We enjoyed biking and walking around the area. It's an easy walk to the Owls Head Lighthouse, great location. Thanks so much to owners for a fun stay!!

Beautiful area. Quaint house.
Our family visited Maine for the first time and this area was simply delightful. The lighthouse and general store are within walking distance which was a huge plus! Rockport, Rockland & Camden we’re within easy drive. The house is super cute. Kitchen is small and the lighting wasn’t great but not a big deal. Comfortable beds and nice shower. Tons of books throughout and even board/card games. Fire pit was an added bonus.

Very relaxing
Three of us stayed at this cabin for 3 nights in early July. It was a great location to see a lot of what we wanted to see in Rockland, Camden and Thomaston. We did a sunset cruise on A Morning in Maine sailboat that was amazing, and only 10 minutes drive. The house had comfy beds and a great deck for stargazing at night (with bug spray - lots of mosquitos!). Only issue we had was that the house got quite warm after a few 80 degree days, but we contacted the owner and were provided fans.
Hi, We were disappointed that we were not able to see the harbor from the cottage. Besides that, the place was dirty with dirty towels on the back of the bathroom door & a dirty sock under the bed. The guest room upstairs looked like it has not been vacuumed in awhile as there was a lot of dust on the floor.

Quiet time
This was what I was looking for . Quiet , simple , clean . Might not be everyone’s cup of tea . Cellphone coverage was spotty . Not for the vertically advantaged, ceilings are low . Check-in directions did not match up with the property, my inquiry to the owner was unanswered, I figured it out, some people might get upset/confused, if arriving at night/in the dark could have been a problem .
Very cute, comfortable, and quaint. We enjoyed how quiet it was and having access to the Lighthouse down the road. We took full advantage of the fire pit as well
