Owls Head Village Post Office

A Post Office as a vacation rental? Yes - Absolutely. This spectacular renovated building started as a barn on a nearby island in the 1800's. The downstairs of this historic building has been the working local post office since 1931. Upstairs, insulated from any noise of a small village meeting place, is the open loft style apartment, with soaring cathedral ceilings. Designed and decorated like a historic Maine cottage. Comfortably furnished, this property is the perfect romantic getaway. A great location, with amenities close by.

The modern, cozy kitchen will support all of your cooking needs. Plenty of inside dining areas, as well as dining al fresco on the deck, right next to the kitchen. The loft and cupola are private retreats for children in your party, just like sleeping in a tree house! The views from the cupola are panoramic, with a peek of the ocean in the distance (seasonally). There's a private deck off the back offering beautiful views of our gardens, where you can eat dinner and watch the sunset. The gardens and expansive lawn, lead to a small pond where you can sit next to the fire pit and roast marshmallows.

Owls Head is a secluded and scenic buoy and lobster pot dotted peninsula, one of Maine's authentic waterfront colonies. Centrally located in midcoast Maine, it is the perfect starting point for day-trip adventures. Rockland is only 5 minutes away and 15 minutes to Camden, both offer great shopping, museums, art galleries and festivals. Next door is the "world's best" general store with "award winning" breakfasts and lunches served daily. Grocery items, soda, and wine available for you to take along on your daily adventures. A five minute walk down the hill takes you to a wharf, where you can buy lobster right off the boat. Only 3 minutes down the road is our favorite (award winning) farm to table restaurant, Primo's. There are so many amazing restaurants and lobster shacks close by.

Turns out, you can get there and almost anywhere from here!

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.

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!!

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!

This apartment above Owls Head post office is super cute and nicely decorated. The back yard and garden is amazing. Truly beautiful. The patio overlooking the garden was so nice for a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. The kitchen was well equipped. We would have given it easily 5 stars if it wasn't for all the dog hair on all the rugs, throw blankets and pillows in the couch.

One of our favorite rentals ever, such a joy to get to stay here! Pictures are just a tiny glimpse, so much better in person even. We especially enjoyed the General Store right next door - wonderful food and service. Thank you for all the love and care put into creating and maintaining this special place! 10/10

The Post Office was a great place for us to spend a long weekend and explore the coast. Everything we needed was there, we enjoyed the fire pit and having access to the grill. We walked to the lighthouse which was a nice chill outing, then headed up to Acadia on the other full day we had, about a two hour drive but doable as a day trip. Communication was great and the space felt very homey!

The charming home above the village post office was unique and provided clean, quiet, and comfortable accommodations. The deck and back yard were beautiful places to relax and have some peaceful moments. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was large so there was plenty of room for three ladies to have counter space. Three of the beds require going up ladders which adds to the charm, but may limit who can sleep on the upper levels. The top level is surrounded by windows with beautiful views - it was like sleeping in a tree house but with the convenience of being indoors. The home is conveniently located to drive to see all the beauty of East coast and inner Maine. The Owl’s Head Lighthouse was a favorite and is only a short walk. The Host was amazing and responded quickly when we couldn’t find the coffee that was on a shelf we walked right by. The cute General Store is next door where you can get almost anything including food and drinks. Be sure to make reservations to eat at Jordan Pond in Acadia National Park and to watch the sunset from Cadillac Mountain. Also, great lobster at McCloons and Claws which are nearby. And, go see the McDonald’s in a house in Portland! I highly recommend staying at the Owl’s Head Post Office.

Very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped apartment above the post office. Filled with nautical (and owl-themed) items. Just as described in literature. Outstanding and helpful communications with owner.

The post office did not disappoint! Our stay was wonderful! Such a charming and unique set up with so many handmade and antique details. We loved the porch and yard! The frog pond and dock/deck were such fun for our kids. Incredible location next to the general store and close to many beaches! We hope to stay again! Thank you!

Doug has created the perfect place to stay while visiting the Rockland/Camden area. The PO is so clean and such a unique place to stay. It is #1 of places we have stayed. Highly recommend this wonderful VRBO!!

Staying at the Owls Head post office was like staying in a storybook. We couldn’t have imagined a more enchanting location, next door to a precious general store with a restaurant, and also down the street from a gorgeous beach and light house. The beds are just right and the decor satisfies the imagination. Thank you for this special place!

Our stay was perfect. The photos online are good, but seeing it in person makes you realize how big the space is! Every inch is decorated with trinkets, heart rocks, and of course, owls! The air conditioning works very well downstairs. Pointing a fan up the stairs and keeping the cupola windows open helps with keeping the top floors cool. Being next to the General Store is a huge plus - delicious food and fudge within walking distance when you don’t feel like fighting the hustle and bustle of Rockland! Doug graciously agreed to let us have our wedding reception here after getting married on the beach. He was extremely responsive, gave great local advice, and was even in the gardens the day before we checked in to make everything look good (it looked amazing!!!). The backyard garden was beautiful. It was large, yet intimate, and I couldn’t imagine our wedding reception being held anywhere else. Mosquitos weren’t an issue for me, once the sun went down the beetles came out, but that’s Maine for you! Whether you’re looking for a place to host an event or just wanting to get away, this is absolutely the place to stay.

This is the third time we have stayed at the Owl’s Head post office; it just keeps getting better!! We were able to get a couple of kayak trips, day trip to Acadia, and enjoy many of the great restaurants in Rockland. Probably our favorite is to go for a long kayak paddle and come back to enjoy the famous Owl’s Head general store “7 napkin burger”….amazing!!

The post office apartment is unique and wonderful. Its eclectic decor and open spaces make it a delight for guests. The private garden is a real bonus as is its access to the ocean minutes away. Having the famed Owls Head General Store next door is perfect for breakfast or an impromptu meal. Doug the landlord could not be more responsive or accommodating.

We've loved each of our five stays at the Owls Head Post Office over the past 10 years. Walking down Main Street to watch the lobster boats come in, running the Hendrickson's Point loop to Crescent beach, walking our dog at Birch Point, hiking Bald Mountain and the Camden hills, eating out at two of our favorite restaurants in the world (Primo and 18 Central), eating fresh seafood at home from Jess's, and reading on the porch, gazing at that beautiful garden -- it is such a treat.

We stayed at the post office while we were in Maine for a family event. We loved the uniqueness and beauty of the house and the property. While we didn't have a chance to use the yard it was gorgeous. The location was great, just a few minutes from downtown Rockland and the General Store next door serves delicious breakfast and burgers.we would love to stay here again when we are able to use all the amenities the property offers like the kayaks. The owners were very responsive to inquiries and check in was very easy. We highly recommend this property!

We adored our short stay at the Owl's Head Post Office. Unbelievably clean - almost uncanny lack of dust in places that I wouldn't even mind finding dust, like the ledge under the bathroom mirror or out-of-sight tops of beams. Special thanks to the cleaners for their incredibly thorough work! Comfortable linens - After a couple nights on hotel polyester sheets, the Post Office linens were a dream. More blankets were found in the cupboard under the steps on a chillier night. Our hosts provided a detailed list of local recommendations. (The Keag had the best volume-to-price ratio of the lobster/crab rolls we tried.) Refrigerator and coffee pot are mini-sized, so we made several pots of coffee each morning, which we carried up to the... ... cupola! - A highlight of our stay was reading in the cupola each morning as the sun rose! The trees are filled in by May, so you can't see the ocean then - no problem for us. Mostly steep & narrow steps at the Post Office (& possible head-bumps in the cupola) - also not a problem for us, but physical ability should be a consideration when booking here. Provided kayak & gear 😍 - we were the only people on Monroe Island, a comfortable trip even without a ton of experience. SUCH a special experience. USE BUG SPRAY!! Delightful, picturesque area: hiking, lighthouses, & SO MANY independent bookstores! Friendly shopkeepers recognized us on repeat visits. Thank you to our hosts for the thoughtful curation of this vacation stay!!

My husband and I enjoyed a relaxing stay at the “Post Office”! It was just as advertised and more! It is so unique, you have to experience it to appreciate it! The Cupalo up top is my newest “Happy Place”❤️. From the birds at the feeders, to the beautiful gardens and the general store next door, you want for nothing. We plan to return‼️ Kris
