Sunset Cove Cottage, private granite beach, fire pit

Summary:
Exceptional renovated and clean cottage on the water with sunset views, 200 feet of private beach, Sleeps 6.
What is better than a sweeping view of a cove, the tide coming in, and your coffee with an ocean breeze? Watch the osprey, deer, occasional seal or bald eagle from the yard. Soak up some sun on the Maine pink granite shore line, or take a nap in the hammock. Time for dinner? Grill up some steak or lobster outside, and finish with smores by the fire pit under the stars!!

Soak up some sun on the Maine pink granite shore line, or take a nap in the hammock. Time for dinner? Grill up some steak or lobster outside, and finish with smores by the fire pit under the stars!! Maybe tomorrow you will venture out for the local lobster roll, some antiquing, or a short drive to Schoodic Point.

Susan was a great host. The home was clean and super comfortable and the view was perfect. The location is a bit remote, but that’s exactly what we loved about it! It was an easy (and gorgeous) drive to so many areas of interest and restaurants.

The home and the locale were perfect for the three of us traveling to Maine in mid-August. The rental agent was excellent—offering many suggestions. We were enthralled by the privacy and beauty and were able to decompress from our busy lives quite easily. The home contains every amenity you could imagine. We WILL certainly return!

This was a wonderful place to stay. Beautiful setting, everything we needed to visit the area for a couple of days. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well equipped. Close to area parks and good food! Property managers were easy to get ahold of and responsive.

First Acadia Adventure

This home was perfect for our first outing to Acadia. We enjoy being away from the crowds and exploring on our own and this was the perfect setting. We explored the Schoodic side first and later launched kayaks directly from the property to explore the surroundings by water. We ate at local restaurants and also had a well equipped kitchen for those nights we stayed in. We took our bikes over to Acadia by ferry avoiding the traffic and getting a bonus tour guide from the ferry owners as we approached Bar Harbor. We explored the carriage roads, hiked many mountains and enjoyed popovers at the Jordan Pond House. We booked a night kayak paddle off Hadley Point Beach and saw many shooting stars and enjoyed paddling through the bioluminescence. We had perfect weather and a perfect place to crash after our action-packed days. We can't wait to return.

Beautiful getaway!

The check in process was easy and the property managers very responsive. The washer and dryer on site was a huge selling point for our family with 4 young kids. The space was clean and open, and the views were beautiful. We enjoyed mornings on the porch. The kids loved the bunnies that visited often throughout the day and checking out the tidal areas. It was convenient to family and we’d definitely consider staying here again on our next trip to Maine.

Fantastic place would stay there again

Great place… very quiet and remote location, be prepared to drive on an unpaved road. The house itself is very clean and well taken care of. It has everything that we needed. There is an outside grill and fire place. Communication with the host was good. The place itself is about an hour away from Bar Harbor and main Acadia trails, but it was not a problem.We have made the trip multiple times. There are also few Acadia trails just 20 or so minutes away from the house. There are a few restaurants, an ice cream place, and a small grocery store just few minutes away. Overall very-very good place. We all enjoyed our stay… there is also a rabbit who lives right outside the house. He comes out every day… we named him “Harold” :-)

Nice and Quiet

Very unique location, and exactly what I wanted. Quiet location. Definitely bring sturdy shoes so you can explore the water front. Take advantage of the “Catch Your Own Dinner” lobster tours right in Corea. Good locations if you want to explore surrounding areas, but stay in a rural setting! Will visit again.

Amazing sunsets and stars

The place was clean, comfortable and very cozy and views of the bay were spectacular. We enjoyed a couple of beautiful sunsets and a couple of clear nights at the fire seeing the Milky Way and shooting stars with just our eyes. Susan was very responsive and helpful. While this is a beautiful waterfront property, I would not consider it having a “beach”. That said, you can walk down to the waters edge and the chairs are great for birdwatching. A very relaxing place in a very quiet part of Schoodic. We loved being away from the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor.

Great Little House!

This property was fabulous! Even though it's out of the tourist area, there is a lot of things to do nearby! We especially enjoyed the waterfront of the property (I would not swim here, but the kids enjoyed looking for creatures and shells), Sandy Cove beach (at the beginning of the road), Me and Ben's Ice cream in Birch Harbor, Lunch on the Wharf in Corea, watching the waves at Schoodic Point. We also made a couple trips to Bar Harbor/Trenton to see Diver Ed and the Great Maine Lumberjack Show. We had a great time! Communication with the property manager was excellent, phone call and texts accepted and responded to promptly.

House has everything you need for your stay. Great, quiet location, just a little drive to all the places you want to go. Very clean. Waterfront very pretty, we were just unable to swim there due to the tidal schedules (but that's nature!!) Would definately stay there again.

We enjoyed our stay. It was a great way to celebrate our 25th anniversary.

The place was beautiful, clean, and scenic. We enjoyed it very much. The downside was it was very out of the way, very dark( no lighting whatsoever… really not good to drive at night), and really no beach. Disappointed about that. It was, however, peaceful and relaxing.

NIce, comfortable, and simple serene location.

Sunset Cove Cottage is a great place to stay. The cottage is clean and comfortable and has a great water front view of the cove. The Cottage is on a private lot away from the busy tourist areas, but is close enough to drive and see all the sights. We spent time on Mt. Desert Island, visited Acadia National Park, many of the small harbor towns, including Bar Harbor, and drove the Schoodic Peninsula and Bold Coast Scenic byways. The backyard porcupine was also special. The host, Susan, communicated well and made the stay easy. It was a great time and a nice place to stay. The only thing that would make it better would be a second bathroom, but we would not hesitate to visit again.
