Wonderful! Check-in was a breeze! Great location - across from the ocean with great views of the sunrise. Walking distance of 1/2 mile from Acadia visitor center and on the Island Explorer bus route. Restaurants and coffee shop very close by. Best of all, the cottage was extremely clean and had all necessary amenities including a washer and dryer. For chilly evenings there is an outdoor gas firepit with Adirondack chairs. HIGHLY recommend!

This lovely cottage is in a perfect location to get anywhere on the island. A lot of thought has gone into the needs of what any visitor could possibly need. Comfortable beds. There’s a lobster bake restaurant right next door that is reasonably priced and very good!

The pictures don't do the place justice. It was so super clean and nice. Beautiful property. Nice wonderful neighbors. 3 miles from downtown Bar Harbor. I will stay again . Also nice to have 2 restaurants steps away from the house. Beautiful ocean view. I'm so thankful to have found this property. Thank you for the stay.

Great location

Second time we stayed at this location and its proximity to Acadia and the town of Bar Harbor allows for relaxation as well as shopping and hiking as needed. The view from the lawn seating of the bay is ideal.

Wonderful!

Cove Cottage is a spotless and comfy place to stay while exploring all that Bar Harbor has to offer. It provided everything we needed and more for our five night stay. We loved the place! The entrance to Arcadia is just 1/4 mi down the road and a great place to eat is right across the street.

House was in an amazing location! We loved walking over to The Chart room in the evenings for dinner. The beds and pillows were so comfy! We had a mix up while trying to check in and her neighbor was kind enough to reach out and let us in.

Lovely Cottage near Bar Harbor

This is a lovely little gem of a property just outside of Bar Harbor in the Hulls Cove area. Place is immaculate - and it was the perfect base to explore Acadia National Park and the entire Mt Desert Island area.

Great stay and location

Overall we were happy with our stay at Cove Cottage, we enjoyed the many activities the area offers and lots and lots of seafood. The cottage is located in a convenient location across the street from a beach on Hulls Cove. Entrance to Acadia is close by. Cove Cottage offers alot and it's great to have a washer and dryer available. Another great stay.

Cute little cottage

It was our second stay at this cottage. It’s small but has all the necessary amenities. Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, TV, WiFi, small area outside overlooking the bay with beautiful sunrises if wiling to get up by 6:00am. Very close to Hulls Cove Acadia National Park, walking distance. Couple of miles away from Bar Harbor. It was perfect for a family of 3 with a dog. Will be returning again.

Property itself was pretty nice, one bedroom however smelled terrible, to the point my wife had to sleep in the kids room. Pretty easy to get into town and see the sights. The “bad”. We received absolutely no communication from the host prior to our arrival, we reached out several times via phone and through the VRBO app and never got a response. Luckily the house was just unlocked when we got there. Once we were there the phone was ringing off the hook, after answering a couple of the calls we realized that is why the host never got back to us, the number listed online is the house phone so everyone who wants to stay there or wants information calls the house phone. The rest of the stay was pretty uneventful until we went to checkout, the email we received from VRBO said checkout was 11, however as we were packing and getting our two small children ready for the long car drive, a rather disgruntled cleaning lady asked me how much longer we were going to be and I said well checkout is 11 so maybe another 45 minutes. She then told us no checkout is 10 so we needed to get out as soon as possible. So as to not cause problems we rushed to leave. We were out at 1030, received a call from the host complaining the house wasn’t clean enough upon our departure. We attempted to explain why we didn’t clean as much as we would have but she just wanted to charge us another 50! As a member of the military and landlord i would highly recommend improving management of the property

Bar Harbor Cottage

We had a lovely time in our own special house in Bar Harbor. Everything you could ask for in a Vac Rental. It was perfect for the two of us and our Golden Retriever loved the spacious yard. Close to everything wife jogged a short 3/10 of a mile and headed out for her daily runs on Acadia's trail. Hope we can get back again soon!

Very lovely house

Very much enjoyed our stay at the house. It's a very lovely house; very well kept. The interior is decorated better than my own house. It’s conveniently located to several restaurants and is as close to town as I’d like to get. But mostly I enjoyed watching the sunrise from the living room window; I miss that already. Looking forward to going back.

Everything We Needed for Our Stay

Cozy cottage with a nice view and all the ameneties that we needed for the week that we stayed there. We had two dogs and the owner was very pet friendly. The owner's sister lives next door and she is engaged in the rental process so if there are any issues (we had none) there is a level of comfort that they would be addressed promptly. Good laundry facilities, decent TV, dishwasher, etc. There are two viable restaurants VERY close by and it's a very conveniant 2 mile drive to Bar Harbor.
