About this property

Mount Desert Island Waterfront. Acadia National Park.

Located in the midst of Acadia National Park, on Mount Desert Island, this private, self-contained. waterfront suite is luxurious and caters to those who love wildlife, water, and tranquility. Located on Seal Cove, just steps from the beach, the view is spectacular and is considered "one of the best locations on MDI to watch the sun set."

Bring or rent a kayak to explore the outer islands and their conservation trails or spend the day in the park knowing you have a quiet, immaculate suite to return to - surrounded by hundreds of acres of virgin forest.

Seal Cove is four miles from the restaurants, shopping, and marina of Southwest Harbor, and fifteen miles from the bustling hub of Bar Harbor. Just two miles away are the hiking trails of Acadia's Western Mountains. Just beyond are Echo Lake and Long Pond (where you can rent kayaks and canoes).

Enjoy waking to bird song, seeing resident bald eagles, seal, wild turkey, and deer. If you are a writer, artist, or musician, a screened-in pergola in the woods offers a magical setting to create.

Step through double, sliding-glass doors into your own living room complete with sofa, chairs, a large, flat-screen television with Roku, and a separate food and beverage nook. This is an independent unit. Set up for the person or couple who prefer to start their morning with Nespresso coffee or tea and end their day with a glass of wine and cheese platter, the bar/coffee station with fridge is perfect.

A hallway that has doors to the shower and a separate powder room (with a view) leads to your king-sized bed in the master suite on Seal Cove. Open the screened doors and windows to smell the ocean and sea roses as you enjoy coffee in bed with a good book and/or someone you love.

First Wedding Anniversary
My wife and I stayed here for our first wedding anniversary while hiking in Acadia National Park and also visiting Bar Harbor. It sits right on the ocean and has a beautiful sunset! It was perfect!

Home away from home
We had the best experience staying in Jennifer's VRBO! Everything was impeccably clean. The bedding was comfortable and inviting after long days of hiking. This place had everything we needed to rest between our adventures. Jennifer made us feel at home and was a very kind and gracious host. It was wonderful making a new friend! And DO NOT miss out on the opportunity to gaze at the starry night skies right outside! AMAZING!

Absolutely quiet with a gorgeous view
This was out 1st trip to Maine and our 1st VRBO. Was a wonderful experience staying at Jennifer’s place. Her location was great for us! Staying along the waterfront with a quiet serene atmosphere. Her home was just as pictured, beautifully decorated, nice bed, and wonderful amenities for us. She recommended places to eat and see. She’s a wonderful hostess and accommodating to what she can do for you. Jennifer thanks for the warm welcoming and having us celebrating our upcoming anniversary you made it special. Tim and Cindy

Beautiful location and property
The property is located on a quiet cove, in a beautiful location on the quiet side of the island. This was perfect for us as we like to be away from the crowds. The whole island is easily accessible from this location. Everything about the property was spectacular. We chose this property both for the location and also from the other reviews noting the comfortable bed. The bed was very comfortable, as was the main living area. Jennifer has nicely decorated the unit and has everything you would want (minus a full kitchen). We ate breakfast using the toaster, microwave, and coffee maker, and that worked well for us. We spent the day sightseeing and hiking and ate our main meal at lunch or early afternoon. In the evening we ate at our lodging. This worked perfectly for our schedule. The Wifi worked well, which was important as we didn't have great cell signal. The view from Jennifer's screened in porch was beautiful, including the spectacular sunset before Hurricane Lee passed by. Jennifer made sure we had everything we needed in case we lost electricity. We enjoyed the opportunity to talk to Jennifer and get to know her a little. Thank you Jennifer for making our first trip to Maine so special! Elaine and Ron
