Simple comfortable clean - good location
Just stayed one night. Only slept there. Didn’t use kitchen but seemed to be stocked well enough. It is small and tight in kitchen and living room but works. Bedrooms were comfortable. Bathroom has no counter space. Nice view. Not a walkable area from house. A good value for three bedrooms.

Amazing View from the deck and living room/kitchen area. Close to all sorts of Lighthouses, Beach Areas, and towns from Belfast, Camden, Rockport, Rockland, Owls Head, Thomaston, Warren, etc. Lobster Festival 2024 was the 77th Annual and packed full of all sorts of activities with 5 days. Geology Sailing with Captain Tyler of Morning in Maine was fantastic. Learned all sorts of info about the wildlife, migrations, lobstering, and sailing.No frills place to stay with an amazing view and close proximity to all sorts of activities and locations. Cycling and kayaking was very easy from the house and many locations within 10-15 minutes. Schoolhouse Farm and Dragons Breath Pottery were 2 great finds. Farm foods and local handmade pottery. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very nice coastal stay!
Clean, comfortable family home in a peaceful neighborhood. Beautiful view and close to everything we wanted to see - McLoon's, Rockland, fairs, shopping, and children's museums. Great mattresses, kitchen and living amenities, and loved the fenced in yard for pets and kids though we didn't have to use it. We would be happy to stay here again!

Thankful for the extra rooms but not the early noise!
I booked this cottage because it was outside of the busy towns and we could all enjoy our own bedroom. Owls Head is quaint and the sea view was nice. The rental had everything we needed for the short stay. The negative is that there was a large tree on the side of the rental that had been recently taken down. Upon arrival, it was a messy sight. Worse yet, the pickup of the tree debris came just after 6am the next morning. This didn’t afford sleeping in. I was also surprised at the level of LOUD road noise that started early. FYI: There is a small plot of graves that border the house, but not in photos. There was also a strong “basement smell” (musty?) when you first entered the property at the kitchen but it grew less noticeable the longer you were inside. There was a giant tv for movie watching. The furniture was different than pictured, but still comfortable. The rental could have been prepped a bit better before our arrival. For example, the outside porch needed to be cleaned as it was covered with leaves/debri and furniture not easily usable.. A few more options for the Keurig would have also been nice, and perhaps a few tea bag options. There is a decent “to-do” list for checkout. In the end, I did not feel like the total fee payed for the rental met my expectations.

We really enjoyed our stay, very comfortable. House was clean and well stocked for our needs. Easy location to shops, galleries, and restaurants in Rockland. Highly recommend McLoons Lobster Shack on Spruce Head Island. We also made day trips to Boothbay Harbor and Pemaquoid Pt Lighthouse.

This was a great overnight stop for three older women who all wanted their own bedroom. We weren't there long but drove a short ways into town for a light dinner and left the next morning after breakfast. View to the ocean was a bonus watching the fog lift and kayaks.

Nice house in a nice location
This house is very well outfitted with almost everything you could need. Even firewood. For those who need/want internet, it works very good too. I mention almost everything because we were there during a heat wave and being that there isn’t AC (like most the houses in Maine) the house was very warm when we arrived and there was no fan to help. With all the windows open, it still took until sometime after midnight to get to just 75. The house is well insulated. However, the basement with the washer/dryer was very cold so that was an incentive to catch up on our laundry :) Overall, it’s a great place to stay when it’s not 90 degrees outside. I would return without hesitation.

Great little house
We were only here a short while. But the location was good and everything we needed was there. Would love to have more blankets available for use. Like another reviewer mentioned it is right by a cemetery. You can see the water from the house, but it is private property so you can not go down to the waters edge. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your property!
