We greatly enjoyed our stay here. The views were fantastic, and the home was spacious and very well taken care of. And the location was quiet, and we felt like we had the bay to ourselves.

We had an incredible time on our vacation. We loved walking on the beach several times a day and finding sea glass. The location is perfect to access Bar Harbor and Acadia.

Quiet, Serene and Comfortable with a Magnificent View

Beautiful property far enough away from the crowds to be quiet yet close enough to get to where we wanted to go. Home is well-stocked and tastefully furnished. The highlight was the stunning view. Home is large enough for a good sized family. Enjoyed very much.

Perfect place to enjoy the Acadia area

One of the best equipped homes we have stayed in to date. A very comfortable home. This house has pretty much everything you would need for a weeklong stay if not longer. Some spare lightbulbs would be a good addition as well as a stepstool for the upper kitchen cabinets for us shorter people.

Perfect vacation spot

This home was beautiful and even better than the pictures and description provided. Starting the morning with a cup of coffee sitting in the chairs provided by the water and returning to the same spot to watch sunset with a glass of wine made a perfect beginning and ending to each day. The property owners provided everything you could need for your stay. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you might need. Communication with property manager was easy and they went out of their way to be helpful. This is a perfect spot for couples or a family. Would definitely love to come back and stay again.

Great Location!! Beautiful Views!!

Location was perfect. Remote and private but convenient drive to all activities. House was clean and fully stocked. Plenty of room for all of the family. Fantastic Views!! Beautiful beachfront. Enjoyed amazing sunsets every night. Also enjoyed the fire pit. We had a perfect family vacation. Only minor inconvenience was that we were not aware that there was no air conditioning and it was an unusually hot week. Otherwise perfect week.

Awesome House

Was looking for a house on the water for 2 couples that was off the island. Found this one which was perfect in every way. Plenty of room for 4 people (we didn’t use 2 of the BRs), well stocked, great location, and comfortable. Daria responded to inquiries in a timely manner as well. Would definitely recommend renting this house to anyone seeking an up to date place with nice amenities and plenty of parking.

You’re done scrolling STOP here!!

This place was simply wonderful!! It saved our trip. The views were awesome and my family had so much fun walking around on the beach and finding treasures. The place had plenty of room to spread out and was stocked with everything you need. For my family Bar Harbor and Acadia were very crowded. Having a place to come back to and get away from the hustle and bustle made the trip that much more enjoyable. The property manager was wonderful. She responded quickly to our questions and was very knowledgeable. If I could give it 10 stars I absolutely would. I highly recommend booking this place. You will not be disappointed!!

Great house on the bay with sunset views in a quiet and treelined neighborhood along the shore.

Everything was great except for the coffee maker was not working. It may have been programmed but did not work on a regular on/off mode.

Loved the beachfront property!

This house was perfect for our family. It was about 30 minutes from Acadia’s park loop road and an easy drive. We found the house provided all items needed and was very clean. The kids loved the ping pong table and everyone loved that we could walk right out to the beach. The grill was nice to have as we cooked often. We had a movie night every night with the DVDs provided. All mattresses in the house seemed new, however the mattress in the master bedroom was very firm and hard to sleep on based on our preference. We enjoyed our stay and loved that the house was nestled in the woods.

About the host

Hosted by Daria Duda

Host profile image
I (Daria) manage the rental operations for the current owner of Heather Cove. Scott and I formerly owned Heather Cove, but though we sold the home, we continue to manage the rentals for the new owner. Also, the cleaning and caretaking crews are the same and will continue to provide excellent care and maintenance for this lovely home.

Why they chose this property

Incredible unobstructed view of the bay and Blue Hill. Flat, shoreline with more sand than usual around these parts! The sunsets are truly sublime. The cove area is shallow so warms up nicely in summer - perfect for swimming and wading.
