Respite

It wasn't the easiest place to find as it is definitely off the beaten path, but once you are there, it is peaceful, calming and a refuge from the normal hustle and bustle of everyday life. Can't beat the view of the sunsets from the back deck! Lots of birds and wildlife on the property too! A true nature lovers paradise in one of the most beautiful places in the world, MDI.

Wonderful secluded cabin

We spent a week here at the cottage. It was very well stocked with linens, towels, and games. We made use of the kayaks and canoes daily, paddling out to various islands. It was wonderful to watch the sunset on the dock or at the cabin. We made trips into Acadia National Park, hiking Eagle Lake, Beehive, Jordan Lake, Gorham Mountain. Picked up groceries at Hannaford in Bar Harbor and cooked at the house. This was the perfect place for our family of 6 and would recommend this place to others!

Nice location, not the cleanest

The owner had a good response time. It was nice there were odds and ends available (paper towels, soap, etc). Good internet. Great view. We did not find a kayak which was disappointing. We found a rowing kayak but not something that you could take out by yourself. Also there was no boat. The place was also not very clean. I dropped something and looked under the couch.. gross. The couches were kinda gross and old. The rug in the living room was visibly dirty and when I played on it with my son, I had pet hair all over me…. We didn’t bring a pet. The dishes in the cabinet were also dirty.

Perfect quiet getaway!

We loved our stay in Seal Cove! Perfect place to access Acadia with a quiet reprieve at the end of the day. We enjoyed visiting Seal Cove Pottery nearby as well and exploring the shore at low tide. Thank you!
