Schooners Landing - Luxury Oceanfront Home with Spectacular Lighthouse Views

Get away from the craziness of the pandemic to the state with one of the lowest Covid infection rates, especially in our little Knox County, Maine. Gather your family in our beautiful formal dining room and enjoy the beauty of the ocean in Midcoast Maine. A stay at Schooners Landing will surely make your vacation one of your most memorable. Located on over five private acres with 300 feet of shore frontage in the charming village of Owls Head, just minutes from Camden, Rockport, Rockland, museums, shops, restaurants and lighthouses, our home affords you a perfect destination for a family gathering or a get together of friends. With three levels, everyone can have their own space yet share memories laughing and visiting together. There are water and lighthouse views from every room.

Enjoy the many summer festivals or come for the 4th of July and sit on the deck and take in the fireworks going off over the water!

The modern house which was built with characteristic New England charm, is classic shingle-style architecture with much detailed interior woodwork and three stories containing approximately 5,500 square feet of living space with large oversized rooms. Windows and decks take in the spectacular sunrises, passing sail boats, lobster boats pulling up their traps just off the front deck and lighthouses. Rockland harbor to the north is home to the country's largest fleet of tall masted sailing ships and many pass by the house each day. The house sits at the end of a 750 foot long driveway. A small stream runs year round through the property through evergreens and apple trees. The house is private yet not isolated like many Maine rentals that force you to take a lengthy drive to shopping and dining. You enter through an antique leaded glass and oak door and as you stand in the large entryway, to your left through double glass doors is the formal dining room with seating for eight with a side door to a pantry area and the kitchen. The library/den is on your right. Straight ahead is the kitchen with a large eating area, granite counter tops, sitting area, television, gas log stove with antique oak mantle, side-by-side refrigerator, dishwasher, five burner Viking gas cooktop, electric oven, KitchenAid mixer, over 50 cookbooks, lighted cabinets with leaded glass doors, microwave, small wine refrigerator, lobster pots, etc. and everything else you need to cook a gourmet meal, a curved window looking out over the lawn to the water, and a six foot round table from Windsor Chairmakers in Lincolnville, Maine. Also straight ahead on the main floor is the living room with an antique marble fireplace, writing desk, two large couches, large binoculars mounted on a tripod, smart TV and sliding doors out to the curved 40 foot wide deck with great views of the Rockland breakwater and lighthouse, Seal Rock and Penobscot Bay. Also on the main floor is the master bedroom. It has a king size bed, sitting area with upholstered rockers, windows on three sides with wonderful views of the water, two walk in closets and two baths; one with a Jacuzzi tub, the other with a steam shower. Also on the main floor is the laundry area, the library/den with oak bookcases, desk, printer/fax and a couch to sit back on and look out over the water and enjoy a good book. There are over 650 books at the house.

The second floor has two oversize bedrooms and a large sitting area with television, VCR, DVD player and book case. Each bedroom has a king bed and a twin bed. Each bedroom also has its own bath with marble floors and oversized marble showers. Both bedrooms and the sitting area have lighthouse and water views. The second floor also has two decks, one with ocean views and one facing west with a seating area perfect for sunbathing in the afternoon or watching the sunsets.

The lower level has a fourth bedroom with a king size four poster bed and built in bookcase with smart television, DVD, VCR and windows all with water views, a large game room with pool table, Foosball table, antique bar, mini refrigerator, futon, two arcade games, round table for playing cards or doing puzzles, bookcase, electric fireplace, stereo and plenty of windows with water views and a double glass door opening to a stone patio with a swing and plenty of seating. Also in the lower level is our lodge room (a replica of a long cabin living room), an acoustically designed home theater with two levels of seating, a 65 inch smart television, DVD player and stereo. Lastly, on this level is a full bath with a two person whirlpool tub with 14 air jets and marble shower with a rain shower.

Enjoy walking along the rocky shore looking for seaglass or launching your kayak. You can also enjoy tranquil evenings sitting around our propane fire pit in the lawn by the water. We provide bicycles, golf clubs, fishing poles, tennis rackets, corn hole and plenty of outdoor games. Enjoy a walk through the grounds or play Frisbee golf on our 9 hole (5 goal) Frisbee golf course. We love children and provide dozens of things to keep the little ones occupied, such as children's movies, children's books, puzzles, games, toys, etc. If you have infants or toddlers, we provide cribs, a high chair, baby monitor, strollers, playpen, car seat, bed rails, etc.

There is also a caretaker's apartment available above the three car garage for an additional $650 per week. This apartment has a queen size bed, queen size sofa bed, its own small kitchen/eating area and bath. The apartment has two televisions, a stereo and views of the water.

All you will need to do to have a great vacation at Schooners Landing is walk through the door. We are sure you would enjoy a vacation at our home. Our desire is to make your vacation the most enjoyable and memorable you have had in Maine. Our success is in having our guests have a wonderful time and return again. We have over 25 years experience providing memorable family vacations and our goal is to exceed your expectations. You will never feel that you are in a typical rental home. We want you instead to feel as though friends with a home on the coast of Maine have offered you the use of their house for your family vacation. Please call us if we can provide you with any additional information on our home, Schooners Landing. Please also visit our website to see over 50 additional pictures of Schooners Landing, read reviews of guests who have stayed with us and see other details of our home.

For holiday rentals such as Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years, we will accommodate 7 day rentals that are not Saturday to Saturday depending on what day of the week the holiday falls. If you are celebrating a special birthday, anniversary or other event, please let us know. If requested, we will completely decorate the house for Christmas at no additional cost.

This home was immaculate and had absolutely EVERYTHING you would ever need for an amazing vacation no matter what age. Just incredible. The owner was very attentive, gracious and tbought , we will definitely be back! We can’t even imagine the magic that comes along with this place in the summer when you can really utilize all of it. Highly recommend this property!!!

My family of 4, with 2 daughters ages 10 and 7, stayed at Schooners Landing the week of February vacation. We usually jet off to somewhere but decided to stay in New England for the brake. It turned out to be the most relaxing vacation we've ever had! The house was jaw dropping, you can't get enough of the view. And the owners have ensured you have everything you could possibly want in a rental. From a stocked kitchen, to cozy blankets nearby every seating area, to smart TVs, to binoculars in every window sill so you don't miss that bald eagle flying by the window. My girls were never bored, using the arcade games, pool table, theater room, iSpy game provided to them by the owners and pretend playing they were royalty all week. The parents mostly read books and stared off to the sea. A working firepit was a fun added touch in the yard, we used it while the kids searched for seaglass on the rocky coast right out front. At first we thought the house may be too big for just the 4 of us but we quickly settled in to enjoy all the space! The owners went above and beyond making us feel welcome, checking in on our needs, welcome gifts to the girls, and a much appreciated lobster drop off! A delicious treat! Coming here in the summer must be spectacular but the winter was just as good, allowing us to be guilt-free lazy and just enjoy the house. We did venture off to ice skating at the MRC, Owls Head Lighthouse, Camden Snow Bowl, shopping downtown Rockland (don't miss the Puffin's Nest) and donuts at Willow Donuts..yum! But mostly stayed cozy inside all week and in heaven. We will definitely plan another trip there sometime soon!

We have rented homes all over the world. This is the first one that felt like home when we opened the door. The home is incredibly well stocked especially compared with the usual sterility of rentals. We went in winter, but for summer travelers, there is a garage that is well stocked with outdoor equipment from bikes to frisbee golf. I have already made arrangements to stay again next year at the same time. The owner was super responsive with everything. This was a very relaxing stay.

very nice home great view owner went above and beyond the call of duty to be sure we had once time

The house was beyond our wildest dreams. Views from every room. A huge deck to gather on. Everything was spotless, and the owner was so incredibly helpful. She is a hands-on owner and ready to do anything she can to make your stay perfect. Honestly, we hated to leave.
