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. ##### Danielle H. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul D.

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. ##### Paul D. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cheryl M.

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. ##### Cheryl M. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Aida J.

Spend 6 wonderful quiet days on this property listening to birds and nature by the water, The Schoodic Peninsula is only 20 minutes from this property and is absolutely breathtaking and It is far less crowded then Acadia/Bar Harbour area to the south. The only Negative (not owner's fault) was the road that leads to the house, about 1/2 mile of this road is gravel with really "bad" potholes, do not drive your low profile sports car here bring your SUV instead . ##### Aida J.

Cleanliness could be improved. Bathroom and downstairs bedroom had intense wet musty odor. Dishes needed to be re-washed as they had dried food on them. Lost power for about five hours. Manager said this happens often. Consider installing a generator like neighboring houses. Could not cook, shower with warm water, or flush the toilet without power. ##### Alex C.

Luckily we found this gem well off the beaten path in Winter Harbor. Sure, it's an hour drive into BH, but that area was crawling with tourists, and while we did enjoy our time there, the most peaceful moments were had right here at this property. The setting is idyllic and refreshing. The house was loaded with all the amenities we needed. And the hiking on the Schoodic was some of the most beautiful we've ever experienced! We likely would have missed this little corner of Acadia if we would have stayed in the tourism zone. If you're traveling up this way, do yourself a favor and consider this hiding spot tucked away down a dirt road far away from all the chaos of Vacationland. You won't regret it. ##### Ben H. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cathy P. Jun 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful setting away from the crowds My family enjoyed our stay at the Sunset Cove Cottage! The house itself was very clean and spacious, with beautiful views all around! The bay was ever changing with the rise and fall of the tide, and the quietness of the surrounding woods on the property was magical. This area is very remote…..but if you are like our family and would rather be away from the touristy areas (like Bar Harbor, which is about an hours drive away) then you will enjoy it! My husband is an avid fisherman, and was a little disappointed with the lack of good fishing at the property, but we loved being able to sit on the warm granite shore when the tide was up, and watching the crabs and muscles come out when the tide went out. Plus, Schoodic Point is a beautiful and quiet section of Acadia National Park, and a close drive (25 minutes) for amazing views and fishing - I highly recommend a sunset at the point! The kids loved exploring the woods, and while we didn’t see any wildlife on our trip, there was plenty of evidence in the woods that they are around 😊 The smaller towns around us (Birch Harbor, Winter Harbor, Corea) were scenic and quiet, with enough little restaurants and activities to keep us busy, but again avoid any type of crowd. Thank you Susan for providing great communication, easy check in/out instructions, and all the suggestions of things to do in the area! We enjoyed our time! ##### Cathy P.

The cottage is decorated nicely. The downstairs bedroom and the bathroom are cute and when we booked there weren't pictures up, so now you know. One bedroom upstairs has a sliding door. The other is an open loft space with less privacy. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed our meals there. Buy groceries before arriving. We loved the blackout curtains in the sleeping spaces. More rentals should have them. We loved the location with the long driveway and few quiet neighbors. The water was beautiful. Be aware that if walking is difficult for you, it will not be easy for you to get to the water's edge. It's a bit of an uneven hill and slippery rocks once you get down. My kids still loved it. My daughter says go down on your butt. She's 4 and knows about these things. This home has several scented products. It's not heavily scented but it's enough that if you're sensitive to these things you'll notice. Right before you turn onto Grand Marsh Bay Road is a very nice sandy beach called Sand Cove Beach. You park on the busier road and walk down. We loved it there! ##### Carol M. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vasil H.

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” :-) ##### Vasil H.
