    Fantastic home base to explore Acadia. Enjoyable to leave the hustle and bustle of Bar Harbor and Acadia. 20-30 minute drive to Acadia very manageable. The bedrooms were very comfortable and kitchen well stocked. If we visit the Maine coast again we would definitely return.

    We had a wonderful stay for our family vacation to Acadia National Park. The house had everything we needed. Such beautiful views right in the back yard. We enjoyed walking the beach at low tide. And at night we had a bonfire and looked at the beautiful sky with so many visible stars and even the milkyway. We also enjoyed playing games in the sitting area. The location was perfect for everything we wanted to do on our trip. Everyone said this was one of their favorite family vacations and Heather Cove Cottage was amazing.

    Great home for our adult family of 6. Beautiful location on water. Out of busy congestion but close enough to all things Acadia. Really a great space. Love having amenities like trash bags, ziplock bags, soap along with many kitchen supplies.

    We loved the view and the privacy of the location. The kitchen was well equipped and family room was comfortable. The upstairs lounge is larger and more comfortable than the photos. The bed sizes are not quite as listed in secondary bedrooms. Great place overall.

    Beautiful place and beautiful weather! We all enjoyed the loungers/beach, board games, and access to Acadia. We loved cooking and eating on the deck. We really appreciated the guide to the area, of which we took advantage.

    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.

    Perfect location for family. Comfortable and quiet yet close to a number of things to see and do. This was our third summer vacationing at Heather Cove, creating wonderful family memories.

    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.

    We stayed here from Saturday to Saturday during peak leaf peeping time in October 2024. The home is well appointed, easy to find, close to Bar Harbor but nicely secluded, and is comfortable and clean. We loved getting up and enjoying breakfast while watching the tide roll, getting out and sight seeing around Acadia NP, and then watching the sun set over Union River Bay. We also spent many mornings or evenings walking along the Bay, just enjoying the scenery. It was so easy to coordinate check in, even though we didn't arrive until well after midnight on our first night. There's a lockbox on the front door, so no extra late night access was needed. It was also easy to check out. The property manager was quick to respond to questions. We had no issues while there. Everything worked and everything we needed was there. We had six people, two in the main bedroom with queen, two in the upstairs bedroom with a queen/twin, one person in the upstairs queen/twin, and one person in the downstairs two twin beds room. Our only recommendations/disappointments included: (1) the bed frames are wobbly and could use reinforcement. One of the beds dipped in the middle, though it wasn't enough to coordinate a fix while we were visiting, and (2) there are no views from the upstairs room. But we found that we enjoyed the views from the living room and back deck, and still really liked staying here!

    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.
