Perfect Home Base

This was our second year staying here, and we couldn’t be happier! The locations is quick and easy to anything you want to do in Rockland, and has a beautiful view out the back deck if all you want to do is relax with a couch made for napping.

We had a fabulous vacation here. This was our first trip to Maine. The house was clean, comfy, and had every amenity we needed as well as in the perfect location in Owl’s Head. Just a quick drive into Rockland, we enjoyed the Famous Lobster Festival our first weekend. We also met Bert who sells live lobsters daily across the street and ate a delicious lobster dinner. We also dined out at Ada’s, Orimo’s, and Claws in town. We took a day trip to Acadia, walked around Bar Harbor. We also visited two lighthouses and enjoyed nearby Crescent Beach. Our family of six made a lot of new memories!

The location couldn’t be beat. We went on this trip with our 10 year old and my husband’s mother and it was the perfect amount of space. Comfy couch for lounging inside, spacious dining table for indoors. Our favorite thing was the deck furniture (a large table with umbrella and an outdoor couch and chairs) to sit outside and watch the water. It was amazing to see the tide go in and out and my daughter had fun collecting sea glass at the little beach off the property and walking far out when the tide was low. Host was friendly and very communicative. Would recommend and come again!

A Slice of Heaven

This was our second year enjoying this gorgeous home at the head of the bay. With a spacious deck and lawn for, beautiful view, and well-appointed but minimal interior (so you have everything you need, but a sense of calm pervades), this has been our favorite place to gather as a family, let cousins play and find shells, rocks, and seaglass. We arrived to a spotless, airy, dream home, and soaked in the relaxing atmosphere all week. The location is just a few minutes from all that Owl’s Head and Rockland has to offer. It’s a coastal-Maine-lover’s dream!

Perfect Mid-Coast Stay

This house is just an absolute perfect location for exploring the Rockland area. We stayed three weeks and the house never felt small or uncomfortable. The yard was wonderful for the kiddos, and we loved the couch and the views of the Rockland light. We would absolutely go back!

A week in Maine

This was our first trip to this part of the US and we certainly weren’t disappointed! Great and very well equipped house in a great location with easy access to local amenities and all that coastal Maine has to offer. Very much enjoyed the outdoor space and access to the shore. Would definitely recommend and hope to return some day soon!

Stunning at every angle!

I’ve never stayed in a spot and felt more at home with the decor and surroundings than at Head of Bay. The view from every window is lovely - the water, the gardens, the woods…the beds were comfy, house super well stocked. Seriously, I could see myself living here. The shops, galleries and restaurants in town were perfect. Small town feel but not sleepy. Just lovely, lovely, lovely!

Beautiful, relaxing stay in Owl's Head

We absolutely loved this house and it's incredible view, with access to a small pebbly beach. The house was great, with a well-equipped kitchen and fast wifi and a nice big table where the whole family could eat and play games comfortably. The property was well maintained, and Jennifer was really responsive to any issues that came up. We hope to be back soon!

Airy, clean, and modern with gorgeous ocean view

Airy, clean & modern with lovely vintage decor touches throughout. Beautiful ocean views. Some street noise can be heard but the peaceful and private, nicely landscaped back lawn, large deck, really nice deck furniture & ocean views more than make up for that. A gem we’d love to come back to next summer. 10/10

Great beach exploring

We had a great time exploring the beach at low tide. Playing catch with three little girls and a dog, lots of outdoor space for them to play. Beautiful clean house with everything you could need. The best place to walk the shore and collect sea glass! You even have ping pong in the basement. Close to many hiking areas, light houses, museums , antique shops, lots of activities and private shoreline. Very friendly and easy to reach. I would recommend this house for your vacation

Peaceful paradise

We have been staying in the mid coast Maine area for vacation over the last decade and our family agreed that this house in Owl’s Head was the best of all. Every detail has been considered for guests and the house is light-filled, immaculate and comfortable. The location is perfect- we saw so much wildlife, kayaked every day, and had fantastic meals just down the road in Rockland (Ada’s is our favorite). Jen is a very responsive and accommodating host. Can we give it 10 stars??

Peace & Quiet

Beautiful property and home that is very private. We brought our labs, which is always a bonus. They swam every day right in the backyard. The view is gorgeous and during low tide you can walk for at least 1/2 mile out to the ocean. House was clean and had everything we needed, many towels, beach chairs, kitchen was stocked, and grill and outside deck were awesome. Downtown Rockland is minutes away with shops and great restaurants. We absolutely loved it and plan on returning next summer!

Lovely Home on the Bay

The home was a nice blend of an old Maine cottage and a modern home. The deck has spectacular views of Rockland Harbor and the Breakwater and very comfy seating. It is close to downtown Rockland but still far enough away that you know you are in coastal Maine. We brought our kayaks and launched each day from the small beach on property near high tide. The cottage itself has a lovely downstairs open floor plan space with al the modern home amenities of cable, big screen TV, appliances, sectional couch and large dining room table. Lovely spot, lovely host and nice manager who was very helpful.
