    Waterfront view was fantastic. Having room for 3 couples and access to a kitchen made the stay so much more comfortable & enjoyable than a hotel. Quiet peaceful setting, complete with the scent of Christmas trees and wild turkeys wandering around

    What an amazing place. Spectacular views, comfortable & quiet. Close to Bar Harbor & Acadia National Park. Our host thought of everything we could possibly need to make us feel at home. We will most certainly return!

    My siblings and I had a great time visiting Acadia National Park! The house was in a great location not too far from the visitors center park entrance. The house was beautiful! Would definitely recommend others looking for an oasis to retreat to after a day in the park or Bar Harbor.

    This property is simply amazing! We saw seals, birds, even a bald eagle, deer and a family of skunks. One of our favorite things to do was to just sit on the deck. It truly was amazing! It is also close to Bar Harbor, Seal Cove and all the towns so we could explore those too. The house has enough space to accommodate large groups. Communication with the host was great. We will definitely go back.

    The view is exceptional, and the home’s features were mostly as advertised. However, the stay was impacted by excessive reminders, like notes about removing shoes and labels on nearly everything. Additionally, despite the $1,000 per night rate, basic amenities like toilet paper were limited, which detracted from the experience. Vinyl mattress covers and the requirement to wash and dry our towels (in order to earn a good guest rating) before 10am check out just left a bad taste.

    The property is secluded yet near Bar Harbor and Acadia, the perfect place for our family trip. The house was comfortable, the deck and outdoor fireplace were our favorite places.

    We were fortunate to find Goose Cove Cottage, a relaxing place to unwind while visiting Acadia National Park. This spotless home is very comfortable, the kitchen spacious and easy to work in, with a deck and firepit with water view. The host was very responsive, gave excellent directions; we would definitely stay here again when visiting the area.
