We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful home in Trenton right on Goose Cove. The house was exactly as described – nicely decorated and immaculately maintained. It was incredibly spacious, and the views were unbelievable. Every night and morning we sat out on the deck, looking out over the water and listening to the birds. It was so convenient - close to Bar Harbor and Acadia. The host was fantastic – responsive and very thoughtful. I highly recommend this place for anyone who’s going to spend time in the area.
Perfect rental for our group of 3 couples! The kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty of room for us to hang out both inside and outside. The view from the deck was awesome! We saw lots of wildlife and we enjoyed kayaking during the high tide. Although it is off the island, it is just as close to Bar Harbor and many of the main attractions as other places we've rented on the island in the past. Would highly recommend!
Attentive host and amazingly clean home. Perfect for three couples with three private bedrooms and their own baths. Gorgeous view of the cove and easily drivable to Acadia and Bar Harbor.

Thanks for your review and for taking great care of our home.
Wonderful and clean house with lots of space and unbelievable views!!!Great location that you can get anywhere in less than 30 minutes.Definitely recommend and would stay again!
Waterfront view was fantastic. Having room for 3 couples and access to a kitchen made the stay so much more comfortable & enjoyable than a hotel. Quiet peaceful setting, complete with the scent of Christmas trees and wild turkeys wandering around
My siblings and I had a great time visiting Acadia National Park! The house was in a great location not too far from the visitors center park entrance. The house was beautiful! Would definitely recommend others looking for an oasis to retreat to after a day in the park or Bar Harbor.
What an amazing place. Spectacular views, comfortable & quiet. Close to Bar Harbor & Acadia National Park. Our host thought of everything we could possibly need to make us feel at home. We will most certainly return!
We loved our stay in Trenton, ME. The house was clean and roomy. The deck views were amazing. Beds were comfortable. Check in was easy. Close access to Acadia and Bar Harbor.

Thank you Marc, so happy to hear you enjoyed our home. We appreciate the care you showed during your stay, the house looked great upon check out. Welcome back anytime!
The property is secluded yet near Bar Harbor and Acadia, the perfect place for our family trip. The house was comfortable, the deck and outdoor fireplace were our favorite places.
This property is stunning and is a great example of the beauty you will experience if you've never been to Maine. It was quiet and the water views were amazing.
Wonderful view, convienent, host was quite responsive and easy to talk to. Probably the cleanest vrbo we have ever been in. Wouldn't hesitate to use it again
This property is beautiful. Felt like we were on vacation without ever having to leave. Had everything we needed. The view is epic. Wanda and William were great hosts.
This property was perfect for our party of 3 couples. It is very private and the water view is beautiful. It was exceptionally clean and well stocked with everything needed for our week. The location provides easy access to Acadia, Bar Harbor and other quaint small towns. I highly recommend this property
We were fortunate to find Goose Cove Cottage, a relaxing place to unwind while visiting Acadia National Park. This spotless home is very comfortable, the kitchen spacious and easy to work in, with a deck and firepit with water view. The host was very responsive, gave excellent directions; we would definitely stay here again when visiting the area.

About the host
Hosted by Wanda Pinkham
Bill is a small business owner and has always shown an interest in Maine's beautiful waterfront properties. We thought building rental cottages would not only be a good investment but they would allow us to enjoy them as a getaway as well. We have built two cottages since 2004 and have met wonderful people from all over. This is a great way to invest but also enjoy along the way.
Why they chose this property
Bill and I love the ocean and this property was the perfect location for our second rental cottage. It has a great view of Western Bay and Acadia Mountains. There is a lot of wildlife in this area and we enjoy watching the seagulls, ducks, deer and the chipmunks as they visit on occasion. One family who has rented from us twice now...saw a Moose walk along the driveway! No pictures but I keep my eyes open in case he returns while I am there.
What makes this property unique
An outdoor fireplace which is perfect on those quiet summer nights.
