'Beautiful Secluded Coastal Maine Island cottage Rental' Four Season

Discover this uniquely located and beautifully furnished cottage nestled in the woods on an Island off the Coast Of Maine. Dry Cove Cottage is situated in a grassy clearing surrounded by towering alders and fir trees, located in the quiet, beautiful woods of Deer Isle, Maine.
This approximately 760 square foot cottage offers an open floor plan on the first floor with a living room, and kitchen with seating for 5 around an island. In the living room you will find a sofa, and two very comfortable recliners to kick back and relax in. There is a 42' Flat screen T.V. cable, with a DVD for your convenience. In the kitchen you will find all the necessary appliances you will need to make your vacation a breeze. For your convenience, an AM/FM/Cassette/CD player is also available.
We believe the best part of your stay should start with a great night’s sleep! All of the beds are equipped with top of the line mattresses. On the second floor you will find a master bedroom with a queen sized bed, and a second bedroom with an adult size bunk bed and a single twin size bed. In addition to the bedrooms, one full bath completes the second floor of this spacious cottage.
Our visitors are often so enchanted by the quiet, friendly beauty of Deer Isle that they stay “on island” for their entire stay. Others choose to explore the many other island and coastal communities nearby, from the islands of Isle au Haut, Vinal Haven, and North Haven and the neighboring Blue Hill peninsula to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. This cottage is the perfect location to explore them all. We are a four seasons, weekly rental with something to offer everyone.

Perfect vacation
Ricky's cottage was far better than we expected. We had the most peaceful vacation I can remember. Waking up to birds singing, deer grazing outside, clean and well kept property, and Ricky was more than willing to accommodate our needs. Oh, and seafood everyday! We stayed on the island the while time exploring, hiking, and just watching from the pier.

Dry Cove Cottage Review
The cottage met our needs and we had a good time, however there were a couple of things which could have made it better. The pilot light in the stove would not stay on, which made baking inconvenient. The other issue was with the TV reception. I suspect that a couple of branches which, when the wind was blowing, blocked the signal and caused the picture to go on and off like a loose light bulb Trimming them might help the reception.

Slice of Heaven
I stayed in this sweet little cottage for 8 days with my dog, Zion. It is the perfect place for your fur family. Zion realized when I packed up the car that we were leaving. He cried (part Husky) in my ear for an hour to let me know of his displeasure! We took a walk on the property twice a day and he loved it. The cabin fit my needs well. The kitchen was well equipped and the bed was comfortable. I had a friend vacationing in Florida (Tampa Bay area) at the same time and the TV worked well to keep an eye on his weather. We will definitely be back.

Serene setting ... minimal amenities
This cottage, with its cabin-like atmosphere, is exactly as described, but I would advise prospective renters to pay close attention to the photos. The interior is furnished in a bare-bones manner, with no lamps in the bedrooms and no rugs anywhere. The living room furniture is limited to the large, soft 'man cave' style, with no side tables or reading lamps. The main downstairs area is roomy, but there was no table to supplement the kitchen counter. Families wishing to play games together might be disappointed. There is ample space for a table in front of a sunny window so remedying this would not be difficult. There was only a single working lamp, and the 2 others were falling apart. Essentially, there is a lot of potential, but what is apparent is a lack of attention to everyday comfort. We are 2 retired adults and found the lack of good lamps for reading a problem.

Peaceful but Convenient
An out of the way peaceful property but close to all needs. Absolutely beautiful area. If you are looking to totally relax onsite and be close to activity this home is perfect. Ricky is a very attentive host- I called upon arrival and departure, and he picked the phone right up. Definitely on my short list to return and enjoy the property and area again!

Very Sweet Alternative to staying at Haystack
Pro’s: I really did like the with regards to Haystack, it was an easy 10-15 minute drive. Bed was comfortable and shower was sufficient. Loved the directv as well. Kitchen had everything you would need, including seasonings and plastic wrap etc. Cons: No a/c, no laundry, could use a thorough cleaning, especially shower and side of fridge. I would stay here again, but maybe not in mid-July. Host was easy to reach. Had to leave early suddenly due to unexpected work issue.

Our whole family enjoyed this clean, well-appointed cottage, located inland, within a short drive of everything we wanted to do, from hiking to riding the mail boat! Our dog loved it too! So quiet and relaxing. And Ricky, the owner, was such a pleasure to do business with! Everything went smoothly.

The online listing needs to have the Spa/whirlpool removed as a feature. That was disappointing when that wasn't there. The shower needs a new showerhead. Other than that the house was very nice, clean and quiet. Deer Isle was beautiful and the people were very friendly. We enjoyed the time we spent there.

Peaceful and Secluded cottage on a beautiful Island
My family and I really enjoyed our stay on Deer Isle. The cottage was everything we expected from the description and more. My favorite part was sitting on the front porch with my coffee and listening to the wind in the trees. Our dog enjoyed the stay as well. The cottage was secluded enough that she could roam freely and be safe. We contacted the owner once before we traveled he answered right away and said if we needed anything to call. We needed nothing. The cottage was clean and the property well kept. It’s alittlle more than an hour to Acadia and Bar Harbor where we spent two of our days. The island was nice because it did not have the crowds of Bar Harbor.

Peaceful
We spent a lovely, relaxing week in this cottage. Everything we needed was available. Each day we explored different areas, from Blue Hill, Stonington, Castine and even the Sow's Ear winery. Hiking at Acadia, Barred Island and then spending quiet time watching the fireflies from the front porch. A great time!

Very quiet area. Nature was all around
House from start to finish was a great house. Love the loft area with the bedrooms. This house is also great to entertain company. We were thinking we had to go back and stay there every year we visit Maine from here on out. We had deer walking through the front yard every morning. Great location!!

Perfectly wonderful!!
We absolutely loved the Dry Cove Cottage that we stayed in last week. It was exactly like the pictures, and included everything we needed for our week-long stay at Deer Isle. We enjoyed the area immensely, and can't wait to return! The cottage was cozy, private, and just what we wanted in a rental. Our dog, Ella, absolutely loved it! Can't wait to go back. Thank you!!

A fun (and cozy) vacation!
Our first impression of Dry Cove Cottage was how beautiful and well-kept the grounds were. Inside the cottage was a very rustic feel, and a very spacious living area on the ground floor. The upstairs was a bit more cramped, in particular the two bedrooms. The Cottage was perfectly located for our group to go on a different day trip each day of our vacation--Bar Harbor one day, a Farmer's Market on Deer Isle another, and hiking along the coast? You can't beat it. The positives by far overshadow the negatives, but a couple are worth mentioning. As mentioned above the bedrooms are small and lack closet/storage space, so be prepared to live out of your suitcase! Secondly, although the kitchen is perfectly serviceable, the kitchenware and utensils could probably stand updating. We all had a fantastic week, but none so much as our dog who had the best week of her life. She loved running around the property off-leash and taking naps in the shady grass. Thanks for a wonderful vacation, and be sure to visit Nervous Nellie's Jams and Jellies on your trip!

Stay was perfect, awesome location to ocean, seemed like every half mile another great view could be seen, local food was unbelievable, scallops were incredible, loved the Fishermans Friend.

Thank You for an awesome vacation!!! Hope to stay with you again for years to come. Enjoyed so much that considering moving upon retirement to area absolutely beautiful!

Wonderful private location!
Idyllic setting for people who love their privacy! Beautiful surroundings with a deck where the sun moves around and the chairs are light-enough weight to reposition anywhere! Clean, well-equipped cottage, efficient kitchen, and very nice owners who are exceptionally accommodating! Close to many good eating places in Deer Isle and Stonington and a haven for art and gallery lovers! Thoroughly enjoyed our visit, especially our 90 lb golden/mix who didn't want to leave!

A great place to stay
Our first trip to Maine and I am sure not our last. The cottage was clean and comfortable. There were three of us so it worked perfectly. It was close to town yet far enough away for a private retreat. The owners were very helpful in answering our questions and offering suggestions. We had a great time visiting Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Baxter State Park and of course just exploring Deer Isle. The people we met were very nice and the restaurants amazing. We look forward to our next visit!

A group of us used this house to do some sea duck hunting for a week and had a great time. The owner was easy to get a hold of for questions and the place was very nice to stay in. We would stay here again!
