Couples Cove Cottage, Private beach, Fire Pit, Fireplace!

Wake up to a breathtaking sunrise, listen to the loons sing, watch the seals swim up to the rocks as the tide comes in, or cook s'mores in the firepit by the stars.
It is quiet, clean, well stocked, yet close to activities if you do want to leave this peaceful oasis.

Perfect Cottage
This was the best place to stay for us while visiting the Acadia National Park region. It was perfect for 2 adults and had everything we needed. It is on a quiet cove with fantastic views of the harbor. We loved having our coffee down by the water's edge in the mornings. We saw 2 bald eagles right on our little beach! My favorite part of the whole stay was probably the stargazing. There are 2 beach loungers just outside the back door that were perfect for staring at the sky. I have never seen starts so bright and clear! A very romantic lovely cottage! Just perfect!

Lovely Maine Cottage
Cottage is in a lovely, quiet, peaceful location...within a short drive to Acadia National Park. (Both the main park and the Schoodic Peninsula section of the Park. ) Absolutely breathtaking views from the large windows of the cottage. Cottage is very well maintained and well decorated for a perfect stay. Kitchen is fully stocked with cooking necessities but there are also several excellent restaurants located in nearby towns. It was a perfect relaxing getaway. And our first trip to Maine and hopefully not our last!

A little piece of heaven
The home was perfect for two people, spotlessly clean and well stocked. Lots of outdoor seating, which we loved. The view was incredible, and we enjoyed a gorgeous sunrise every morning. We also had two eagles in our backyard, and we spotted a couple of seals as well. Close to Acadia and great local restaurants. Hard to say good-bye to such a beautiful and serene spot!

Perfect Maine Retreat
Couples Cove was perfect in every way. The setting was just too beautiful for words. We enjoyed wonderful sunrises, eagles soaring every day, seals, baby red fox and just Gods majestic handiwork. It was really hard for us to leave every morning b because we just wanted to stay there! . The cottage itself was just lovely… that whole wall of windows to view the cove! Wow! It had everything we needed and had very comfortable accommodations. The notebook was very helpful. Communication was great. It truly was the perfect vacation and we feel so very blessed. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home. . We have come to love lupine! The Schoodic Peninsula was our favorite part of Acadia.

Location is Everything
Absolutely beautiful setting very much enjoyed the location. Saw seals and bald eagles at the property. Only reason it’s a 4 and not a 5 is the bed needs a new mattress and the kitchen could be better equipped with things like decent knives and a garbage can with a lid.

Beautiful views on Frenchman's Bay
This cottage in a quiet neighborhood on the bay offers beautiful views from inside with expansive windows across the front facing the bay, a screened in porch, and a patio with grill. Chairs on the waters edge on either side of the property and trees between the property lines on either side offer privacy. The property was clean, nicely maintained, with linens and dishes/pots/pans needed to cook in the well-planned kitchen with island, all facing the outside views.

Perfect Stay
This property is exactly as advertised, except they don't tell you how relaxed and renewed you will feel after a few days. From the time you arrive until you have to leave, it is where you want to be. After visiting the Acadia NP, coming home each day was a joy. Watching the sunrise from the blue chairs is the only way to start the day. The property is super clean and has all the comforts of home. Nothing is overlooked.

Amazing Cabin on the Bay
Immaculate, spacious, convenient, comfortable with spectacular sunrises!!! Very convenient to Bar Harbor but away from the crowds! Delicious dining options nearby. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for coffee & to prepare meals. The bed was very comfortable! We so enjoyed hiking & biking in Acadia then returning to relax by the bay!! We would most definitely stay here again!!! A beautiful cabin to relax & renew!

Another Great Stay at Couples Cove Cottage
This was our second year staying at Couples Cove Cottage and once again our stay was great! We love this cottage, the big, beautiful backyard right on the water (what a view!) and the lovely, walkable neighborhood! It's a perfect location and so peaceful. We spent a lot of time sitting in the backyard chairs just relaxing and watching the water. We saw an eagle just about every day right in the backyard! The cottage was so open, bright and clean! Susan (the Property Manager) was so helpful. We've already booked this place for next year. Thank you to Susan and the property owners for another wonderful stay!

This property is well worth the cost. We woke up every morning to a gorgeous view of the ocean! (Plenty of chairs to take in the bald eagle sightings with a cup of coffee too!) The bed was comfortable, and the cabin is close to Ellsworth, a cute small town. This was our 4th Maine vrbo property, and one of our favorites. You can "turn up the quiet" and will never tire of the perfect location. Highly recommend!

An absolutely beautiful property!
This property is tucked away & feels very private. The mossy property is just gorgeous and the ground is softer than carpet to walk on. It's pretty unbelievable actually. The view of the bay is so lovely and I really could've just sat outside the whole time & enjoyed the environment, if there weren't so many other wonderful things that we wanted to see while visiting Maine. I really can't imagine wanting to stay anywhere else if we come back to visit. I definitely recommend staying here if you get a chance.
