Newly remodeled cottage with ocean views, 5 minutes to Acadia

Great location, very clean, well stocked. Gets a little cool overnight but was manageable. Great communication with owner.

This home was lovely and a perfect location for all of our activities. The gas fire was delightful in the cool evenings and our dog Chico felt right at home.

Amazing! For my husband and I and Our Furry friends Homer and RubyGreat location close to everything!The hosts are amazing! Responded very quickly to any questions I would say this is the perfect place to relaxAnd reconnect the beauty is all around you!My one and only suggestion the shower might be good to have a couple or at least one hand bar! I had double knee replacement surgery And I felt like I needed to hang on to something But I am. 75 so it could just be a me situation Anyway to the hosts thank you for sharing your beautiful home we loved every moment of it!Mike and Maureen

Quiet neighborhood. Great amenities including gas fireplace. Lovely patio with table for 6 overlooking water. Clean. Great shower. Dog friendly.

We loved our stay! Quick drive to Acadia national park. Close to ocean with beautiful ocean view! Would love to come back!

Short commute to town. Clean well decorated

We enjoyed our stay--the location is quiet but extremely convenient to Acadia, and the house is wonderful. Communication with our hosts was excellent as well. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed our time at Writer's Cove. The property is cute, comfortable and convenient.

We loved our stay at “Writer’s Cove” cottage. It was well appointed, clean and in a convenient yet quiet location. Easy access to downtown Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Great morning sunlight and a bit of a view of the water. Nice neighborhood for walking. Excellent communication with the owner - he was very prompt with returning messages. One thing to be aware of is the stairway to the second floor is quite steep and the handrails do not go all the was to the top. We didn’t use the upstairs as it was just my husband and myself. I didn’t have an issue with the stairway, but my husband has some mobility limitations so he didn’t bother checking out the upstairs rooms. Overall a very comfortable stay at a great location. If I head back to Bar Harbor I would definitely stay here again.

We traveled from Michigan to enjoy the splendor of Acadia and Bar Harbor. The added bonus for us was Writer’s Cove. Our entire family commented multiple times how much we loved this gorgeous home. All of the added amenities, from the games and books to a lobster pot to marshmallow forks were very much appreciated. We traveled to Bar Harbor to experience Acadia. We loved our trip. We all agreed that this home was the pearl of it all.

We had a great stay. The renovations are very nice and comfortable. The yard could use some work and the ocean view is almost completely obscured by neighbors fence. The deck was lovely though and enjoyed just relaxing on it. We were nervous about the house not having A/C given the heat we had for part of the stay, but it ended up being cool and pleasant at night. Overall a great stay and great house. We would return.

House was great, location was great, overall we enjoyed our stay. There was two things though that did sour it a little that I would like to share just so future renters are prepared. On a 95 degree day we discovered there is no air conditioning, not even in the bedrooms. I understand most times Maine doesn’t need air conditioning but other rentals we had stayed in have little units for the bedrooms just in case. We did open the windows and use the provided fans but even then we couldn’t get the overnight temp below 86 which made for a restless night. The other is the ocean views and beach access. the listing and in the house book, it says there is beach access down the road. when you walk down to find it there is only a steep loose rock embankment. We are pretty fit and were able to slowly pick out a way down but back up was more difficult.

Very quiet, off the beaten path, clean and accommodating.

Enjoyed the location and house. Everything we needed was provided and communication with the owner was great. Would recommend for anyone going to the Bar Harbor area!

This house was the perfect home away from home! Beautiful view of the sunrise over the water. Just a short drive to town and trailheads. We had a wonderful experience and hope to return again!

Came to check out Acadia off season - Writer’s Cove was a perfect choice. Comfortable to hang out with a cozy feel throughout the house. Easy to get to Bar Harbor and Acadia. Close to water and a great view of the night sky!
