Owen House
-
This is the Owen House as seen from the water side of the front lawn. Owen House is historic and was built in 1835.
Owen House is built on a dramatic headland overlooking Passamaquoddy Bay, part of the Bay of Fundy. This view shows our point of land. The other side of the point has a small beach.
Owen House is on Friar's Bay and we have a nearly 300 degree view of the water since we are on a pointof land surrounded by the bay.
This side yard faces the parking area and the driveway into the house.
Owen House front porch.
Owen House study. We have several large rooms facing the water, a gallery, and two open porches for our guests to enjoy.
Our sunny dining room starts the day right with a full breakfast and good company.
This house is well designed for a bed and breakfast, No one gets in any one else's way and we have lots of room for guests to spread out.
The sunporch is especially liked by guests who tend to gravitate there to read and in the evening to watch the sunset.
Head Harbour Lightstation is at the northern end of Campobello and is a very important lightstation for Canada. It has Federal Heritage status. It is something that must not be missed. The lightstation can be walked over to for a 3 1/2 hour period at low tide each day.

The Owen House is a large colonial inn built in 1835 on a headland overlooking Passamaquoddy Bay. Located on Campbello Island,it has a panoramic view of the islands on both sides of the Canada/U.S. border. It faces southwest, the rooms are large and sunny, and you can see the water from nearly every room. Admiral William Fitzwilliam Owen, the son of the Welsh Captain who was granted the island in 1769, built the Owen House in 1835. The Owen family ran the island of Campobello as a feudal estate for nearly a century. The old house still has most of the original construction, furniture from the 1800's, quilts and fireplaces, which add to its warmth and charm. There are nine guest rooms and seven baths. The second floor rooms each have a private bath and the third floor rooms (the servants had the best view) share two baths. Guests have the use of several large sitting rooms on the first floor, all of which open up onto porches overlooking the sea. Several people usually gather around a fire in the evening.
