About this property
Oceanfront Cove Adventure for up to 12. Gorgeous setting. 500’ of waterfront.
Make Hideaway Cove part of your spring, summer & fall from now on! This is a private wooded setting right on the Atlantic. The island shoreline is perfect for watching nature and the tides roll in and out. Enjoy sunrises and sunsets by winding through the property wooded trail to a big rock at the shoreline for sitting and gazing !
Hideaway Cove is a 4 bedroom (plus loft) spacious multilevel home, with water views throughout. It includes a master bedroom (king) & full bath on the first floor, 3 bedrooms plus loft, including a fun 4 bed bunk room, on the 2nd floor! Guest room 1 has a Queen bed. Guest room 2 has two twin beds and a futon. Guest room 3 has 3 singles & 1 double in bunk bed format. Loft has a double bed. There is a full bath upstairs too. New carpeting in bedrooms installed in 2021.
Seasonal only Fireplace, fully furnished recently remodeled kitchen with microwave and utensils, full washer and dryer, VHS TV, two flatscreen TVs with DVD players, no cable (bring your own streaming devices)wireless internet, multilevel decks, gas grill and outdoor seating all add to the desired comforts of a meaningful vacation experience.
Recently installed automatic home generator system for those power outages.
Enjoy the ever changing sea with 10'+ tides. Swim in the ocean, relax at Fine Sand Beach or swim at the island rock quarry. Buy lobster from the local market or dig clams and mussels! Enjoy the surprises that Swans Island has to offer and be enchanted right from the beginning as you board the Henry Lee Ferry that takes you and your car from Bass Harbor to Swan's Island!
Close proximity to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Earlier this year, Bar Harbor was named the best small town to visit in the USA by U.S. News & World Report. It was also named among the most beautiful towns in America by Conde Nast Traveler.
You will want to return to Hideaway Cove every year like a number of families are already doing.
Lock your dates in because this unique waterfront property gets reserved quickly.
One week minimum. SATURDAY TO SATURDAY ONLY. No campers or tents per homeowners association regulations.

About the host

Why they chose this property
The location of this home with Back Cove on one side and a quiet lagoon on the other side made this the perfect choice for us. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, want to stop, listen and not hear anything, then this is the place for you. Read a book on the deck or borrow one of the books on the book case. Play board games in the evening, hike wooded trails, dig clams, watch the Lobstermen bring in their catch or sleep the day away on the deck...it's all here. Yet, you are a 30 minute ferry ride from Bass Harbor and Mt. Desert Island. It's not home away from home, it's 'relax away from home'!
What makes this property unique
The views from the house and deck make you wake up every morning and think you are in paradise! The low tides are just as pretty as the high tides! Seeing the sea gulls swoop down, pick up a clam or mussel, then fly high over the big boulders that line the shoreline and drop them to crack them open and then eat them is mesmerizing! We like to follow one bird and see where they pick their clam and then guess which boulder they will fly to, drop and eat! We chose this property over others due to the serene location and ocean views.
Make sure you check out Fine Sand Beach, the Quarry swimming hole and TIMS take out - Friday night is pizza night, but order early! Goose Pond is about a mile walk…some may want to crest the ridge behind it for the view of the Atlantic and walk down to the ocean beach. Hike to Noah's Ballast and enjoy the views of Frenchboro!
Check out the bold coast on High Head Beach on the east side of the island.
Make the short drive to Hockamock Head Lighthouse. The views are amazing and you will want to see it at low tide and high tide to experience the crashing waves. There are several trails around the lighthouse that take you to 2 different beaches.
Want to dig clams or muscles? Wait for low tide and look for the small holes in the sand! Grab a shovel and start digging!!
