The property is unique and fun. For our first visit to Maine, we loved staying there away from the hustle and bustle. The general store was also a treat; their fresh baked muffins were delicious. Our kids loved staying in the cupola.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property is delightful, a visual playground as well as being comfortable; everything has been thought of. The outdoor garden was in full bloom and gorgeous with plenty of room to relax or dine. The location is excellent, quiet and peaceful with a small-town grocery store right next door and an historic and scenic lighthouse only a relaxing walk away. Plus the lovely towns of Rockland and Camden only a short drive. Highly recommend!

We loved our stay at the post office. The apartment is so unique and cozy. My kids really enjoyed the loft bunks, and I did too while reading during a brief rain shower. The General Store was also great. We loved the convenience, thought the food was good, and the staff was friendly. A perfect home base for our family trip!

Owl's Head Vacation

Such a cute and unique property in the perfect location for exploring all of the mid coast. We come up to visit friends every summer, and the post office was the perfect home base. It was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Doug was super responsive and easy to work with. 10/10 recommend

This was our second day at this property and it was just as lovely as the first. The wonderful hosts bring an artist's eye to everything they do. They are also thoughtful enough to make sure that there’s are extra toothbrushes or razors or other necessities you may have forgotten. The gardens are so beautiful and everywhere you look in the house, there’s something delightful to the eye. The location next-door to the general store and just up the road from the harbor is wonderful. The cleaning service is terrific, too.

Still a favorite

We have stayed here several times and coming back just brings us joy. Mornings on the balcony with coffee and a book are the best. Access to kayaks and food right next door just can’t be beat.

Perfect Little Getaway

This is our second time staying at the Post Office and we can't wait to return. Our family loves the coziness of this home and all the character every nook offers. We couldn't imagine staying anywhere else when we're up visiting our favorite place in Maine!

The photos don't even begin to do justice to this house! Everything about our stay was excellent! Great location, great vibe, great stay! We even used the kayaks and grill, both of which were in perfect working order......a real rarity at a rental property. I can't speak to the quality of the TV because we never even turned it on in the 5 days that we were in Owls Head. I have already started recommending this place to everyone who will listen to me!

This property is very nice and has a beautiful garden.I must mention that it has a lot of stairs - 3of4 being ladders. The second story bed room has no closet or other place to keep your clothes. The bed there is only 12-18” from the eave wall making it difficult to access the bed. Because of the location at the intersection of 3 roads, there is some road noise.

Amazing! Every detail of the post office was so well thought out! It felt like staying in a cozy house museum. We couldn’t believe the garden area either. My kids never wanted to leave- and are still asking when we can go back. (Just a note- my 3 year old did need to be carried on the stairs due to their ladder-like structure). The kayak access to local islands was also super cool- a very special experience.

A Perfect Maine Stay

The Post Office is everything you want in a vacation rental. Charming, cozy, well thought out, and close to all the things. Our family of four (two big kids) fit well in the space. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need. The garden is beautiful and the peonies and irises were popping when we were there. The hosts were accessible and had lovely recommendations of the local scene. We would definitely come back!!
