Beachy Watering Cove Cottage

Giant main bedroom, 2 bathroom, living room with doors and a sofa bed.
NEW! Beachy Watering Cove Cottage. On a quiet side road, with the private beach in front the the cottage. Its spectacular!
Sleeps 4, private beach, firepit, Acadia.

This stunning property has everything you may need for vacation fun! There is a sandy beach in front of the house, yes this is waterfront! Take in the gorgeous sunsets, and cozy up around the fire pit for those nightly chats while stargazing under the clear Maine skies.
Relax on the spacious lawn playing lawn games like you did in your childhood. Rent kayaks and take a morning tour of the cove as the tide comes in, or take a drive to nearby trails to hike in the clean air.
Enjoy the nearby restaurants and quaint shops in Winter Harbor, local lobster co-ops and farmers stands as you venture out to explore . Winter Harbor has a ferry that travels directly to Bar Harbor, or you can certainly drive too! This is truly a Maine experience in a small fishing town with the coziness of a clean and spacious Maine waterfront Cottage.

Great place to get away from it all

This cute little house was just the right size for my husband and me. The neighborhood was very quiet and relaxing. However, the drawback of that is that it is at least a 30 minute drive to get to anywhere. Bar Harbor is an hour's drive (and we were not in peak season - it is probably longer if we had been). There were a few things to do closer, but you still had to drive as there are no shoulders on the road and consequently walking felt treacherous. This is not a criticism of the property - if your intention is to relax this is a wonderful place to do it!

Owners provided a clean space

Property manager’s primary function seems to be sending automated messages that repeat fees for late checkout. Spent the first night/morning figuring out how to a) get water on b) how to get hot water to work. Information in “welcome” book in addition to pages of for late checkout, starts with 3 pages of rules and penalties, no information on how to deal with water. Inconsistent information about exact internet password. Liked th house, really not sure what value property manager offered.

Anniversary getaway

This was an extremely nice place for our vacation. It has everything you could possibly want or need. Great location, close to Schoodic Point which is one of our favorite sites. Several place to eat; so no cooking was also a plus for us. The weather was great and the price was great for the high quality of the home. The privacy was also a plus. We enjoyed sitting at sea side watching the changing tides.

Relaxing getaway

The property is wonderful for couples of any age. The cottage was immaculately clean when we arrived. The appliances were all clean and functioning perfectly. It is a great location for accessing all the region has to offer, though we also enjoyed many hours just relaxing at the property, either on the beach or just above in chairs, or enjoying the cottage. We would certainly consider staying there again.

Relaxing clean and cozy retreat in a quiet setting

Bed was VERY comfortable All amenities well supplied Upstairs bathroom needs modernizing We should not need to go down severely steep steps to basement washing machine to start towel load upon departure The property manager messages were obnoxiously frequent and unnecessary most of the time

Great getaway

The property is in a quiet neighborhood which we liked very much and the beach access was amazing. Also the house was super stocked with everything we possibly could need and more. Only down side is the lack of air conditioning but seems most nights are cool enough to do without.

Nice waypoint to all things Maine

The house was clean and cozy! Perfect for our trip. We ventured out to Acadia and to the Canadian border and the house was a great central location! The views from the house are beautiful! We would for sure stay again if we venture back to the area!
