Historic Jonathan Lowder House
Located on Main Street in the center of Castine's historic district, our historically renovated 18th century house is two blocks from the harbor. It stands between the oldest operating U.S. Post Office and the Castine Inn. Castine has a number of historic sites, parks and a scenic harbor. Attractions include a nine-hole golf course, a nature preserve with trails, beach, shops, and restaurants. The house is also a base to explore the area including Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. The house was built by Colonel Jonathan Lowder and his wife, Deliverance Cook. Colonel Lowder, a soldier in the French War and the Revolution (who in 1779 was imprisoned in Quebec as a spy), was appointed Excise Officer in Castine, then called Penobscot, in 1789. The house has been renovated and furnished to maintain its historical character while offering the comfort of modern conveniences. It has four bedrooms, two full baths upstairs and a half bath downstairs
