Robin house was one of the best homes we’ve ever rented through out our travels.
Staying at the Robin house was an absolute delight! The house itself, the setting, the amenities provided by our gracious hosts John and Robin were just perfect! My family and I enjoyed every moment of our stay!

Family Reunion
My husband and I stayed with two of our sons and their children. We came to the beautiful Island to attend a family reunion. Everyone loved the house. We had stayed at the same house back around 2005 and loved it even more this time. Lots of space to spread out when you want quiet time and large enough when we were all together. Would rent here again when we come back next time. Loved it!

Had a great time at this island retreat! Only the sounds of nature and the wind. We loved exploring the island hiking paths, light house, fine sand beach, etc. Everything was as described and the TIMS market pizza was very good. Overall a great stay!

Hideaway Cove is a very nice house in a great setting. Close to Fine Sand beach which is amazing.
I highly recommend making reservations for the ferry. They can be made 1 month in advance.

True Maine getaway
We were looking to experience Maine
For the first time and Swans Island didn’t disappoint. We hiked, kayaked, swam and relaxed. Our teenagers got a bit bored but they also thought was a great experience. The property was everything we hoped it would be

Just incredible views of the cove. We enjoyed a lobster fishing trip with Jason on Swans Island, day trips to Acadia and kayaking in the cove.
Hidden Cove was well equipped for all your cooking needs and spacious for our large crowd.
Such a memorable vacation! We will be back!

Great week in a beautiful setting
The house had everything we could have asked for: comfortable bedrooms, well-supplied kitchen, and large deck to enjoy the views and the ever-changing tides. Communication with John was prompt and easy. We brought our kayaks and easily launched from the back yard into the beautiful Mackerel Cove. All-in-all a great vacation!

The views were spectacular! The quietness of the cove was refreshing! Our hosts have created an environment where even with a large group staying together there were many spots set up for peaceful reflection and just relaxing looking at the views. The grandchildren loved exploring and catching crabs in the cove. The home was gorgeous and extremely well stocked! Loved everything about it!

Stunning Trip
What a beautiful location that was enhanced by a wonderful property. Plenty of space for 12 guests both inside and out. We did have 3 couples so not having 3 private rooms to accommodate that was a little disappointing but it ended up working out just fine.
Plenty of space in the beautiful kitchen and the myriad spaces on the deck were fabulous! The location was great to swim at higher tide right off of Sunrise Point (on the property) and our older kids were able to manage the walk to Fine Sand Beach just fine.
We were so pleased with how well-equipped the entire house was, from kitchenware to beach towels. Thanks, John and Susan

Robin House on Swan's Island
We booked this house due to the proximity to Acadia National Park, but found ourselves wanting to stay on Swan's Island most of our trip. The island offers hiking, swimming in the quarry, and a nice beach. The house has everything you need, including a kayak that can be put in at the cove right out the back door. There was plenty of room in the house for our party of nine. The unique location and amazing home made this a memorable vacation for our entire family.

Most incredible place ever!
We immediately fell in love with this home, the hidden cove and the island. There is nothing not to love about the quiet, the beauty, the house, the kitchen, the playfulness of the house and stunning landscape. We got to bike to many of the places we went, wonder on beaches and shores, explore the trails of the island and watch the tides go in and out as we paddled around. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much for being such incredible hosts!!!

Our remarkable week
We had a wonderful time in a beautiful home.
If you wanted some quiet there were quite a number of relaxing spots on the property to sit and read or just listen to the sound of the little waterfall and watch the changing tides. The island itself had a lot of places to explore . beaches the Lighthouse the museum or you could go out on different excursions. We chose the lobster boat trip which we really enjoyed plus we came home with some great lobsters! All in all from the ferry boat ride to the island we loved every minute being there.

Allaghash Rocks
Beautiful spot and home. The lagoon was quite active with fish and birds. Loved cooking in the kitchen with the movie screen sized window into the forest. There is plenty of privacy and secret spots to enjoy. The lagoon was warm enough to swim in. Allaghash rock is a fun hangout rock and fishing spot. And, it’s pretty close to blue rock trail. Excellent game collection! Very fun house, especially for kids. Thanks for the opportunity to enjoy your home.

Maine Vacation 2023
Staying at Hideaway Cove was absolutely a dream vacation. The location and views from the home were from a storybook. It was quiet and secluded from the outside world, which is exactly what we needed. We kayaked and explored the lagoon daily. We went on hikes and explored the island as well. The house is located in close proximity to Acadia, so we took the ferry to Bass Harbor and drove to Acadia two days during our stay. We also got to spend time in Bar Harbor shopping. The house was well taken care of and perfect for our family. The kitchen was well-equipped and made cooking and eating in all week a breeze. Thank you so much for having us.

Wonderful week!
We thoroughly enjoyed the property. If you have never been to Swan's Island, it is a real treat. The house was perfect, everything we needed, just the right mix of rustic and modern, and plenty of room.
We especially enjoyed the decks and outdoor sitting areas, as we spent most of the time outdoors with the excellent weather.
There are 5 distinct "sleeping areas", and we had plenty of room. But, the bunk room and loft might be a bit of a challenge for some older guests so keep that in mind.
Overall, we had a great week. John was very responsive and made sure we had everything that we needed.
Would not hesitate to stay again! Thanks John & Susan.

Relaxing stay in a great home
This was our 5th stay at this home on Swan's Island, and it does not disappoint. The house is well appointed with kitchen wares including a pretty good array of basic spices, paper goods, and pots/pans etc. If you forgot it before taking the ferry to Swan's Island, and can't find it in the kitchen or pantry, The Island Market and Supply (TIMS) has plenty of staples and interesting regionally sourced foods to augment what you brought with you on the island. We would have liked to have wine glasses (only one to be found in the kitchen) but picked up a few at Iver's thrift shop to make do!
The house is pretty cozy for our group of 10 family and friends (with just two bathrooms), but we enjoyed meals seated around the large center island in the kitchen and found plenty of places to lounge in the family room area. The best aspects of "Ocean Cove Adventure" are the location and the outside spaces. We love the large decks, beautiful back-bay views, and the bayside seating on the peninsula.
Thanks for another great stay on Swan's Island

Beautiful Quiet Getaway from it All
The accommodations were great and fit all of us. So much fun to explore at low tide. Fine sand beach was a must and we went everyday we could. Swans Island is a gem of a place to get completely away form it all. We did not find the kitchen to be as fully stocked as some of the other reviews had suggested. Pots and pans for sure but nothing beyond salt and pepper was in the cupboards. Thank goodness for TIMS (The Island Market & Supply) to fill in with the other basic pantry items other fun Maine treats. They also do a pizza night two times a week which was a nice break up of meals. All and all a fantastic place to relax and connect with family & friends. **Definitely reserve a spot on the ferry.

Robin House Family Vacation
We absolutely love Swan’s Island, and we love the Robin House at Island Retreat! We vacationed there this Summer for the second time of six Swan’s Island trips, now with our expanding family. We were with our five children and 6 grandchildren, and the size and family oriented layout is perfect. The Littles love the bunk room, the preteen loved her own loft. Going out to Allagash Rock and swimming and kayaking in the cove. The kitchen is the most well-equipped we’ve ever experienced in our travels. If there is a problem (almost never) it is fixed virtually right away. Thank you, John and Barbara, for a wonderful week. We really hope we’ll be able to come back! Catharine and Richard Geib.

Magical location for family vacation
Beautiful setting, house, and overall a great property and communication with the owners. We had a blast. There were a couple misleading things in the listing, and a couple imperfections that surprised me for the price. We were excited to use the fireplace and deck propane fire table, but neither of those were available to use. There was also a small area in one bedroom that had a leaky chimney issue and what looked like mold, which was condoned off with caution tape
, and one of the bathroom sinks was out of order. i understand that some of that is out of the owners control, especially on an island. the only other recommendation/concern is that the 10 AM checkout time and extensive checkout list, including not just starting linens, but having all towels dried and put away means you need to get up quite early on check out day. Most checkout times are 11, and most places simply ask you to strip beds and start a load. Overall, in spite of these things i would recomnend the property, as the setting and house are incredible and John is easy to communicate with.

Gorgeous property and location!
My family and my brother's family stayed at this property from 8/7/21-8/14/21. We had 5 teenagers with us, and they all had a great time - lots of kayaking, exploring, hiking, biking, and some swimming at the island quarry. We also took 2 nice day trips to Acadia and Bar Harbor. The ferry system (and its workers) took some getting used to, but by the end of the week, we had learned the ropes. Acadia and Bar Harbor were very crowded, so it was nice to escape back to the beauty and solitude of Hideaway Cove. The island store was a daily stop, and the locals were so friendly (everyone waves)! We met the next door neighbors on our first day, and they were very gracious and gave us helpful suggestions.
I can't say enough about the house and property! The design and layout are unique, the house was spotless when we arrived, stocked with all of the necessities, and everything was meticulously labeled, organized, and explained. The kitchen was also well-stocked, and we had everything we needed to cook the lobsters the men and boys brought home from their lobster charter (shout out to Captain Jason Joyce and Swan's Island Charters, as that trip was definitely a highlight for the kids and my husband). The owners of Hideaway Cove have thought of everything! They communicated well throughout the entire process and were responsive to any inquiries.
We made some great memories here, and I'm still patting myself on the back for such a wonderful find! I would not hesitate to return to this property, as it was the perfect place to enjoy all that Maine has to offer.

この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
The location of this home with Back Cove on one side and a quiet lagoon on the other side made this the perfect choice for us. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, want to stop, listen and not hear anything, then this is the place for you. Read a book on the deck or borrow one of the books on the book case. Play board games in the evening, hike wooded trails, dig clams, watch the Lobstermen bring in their catch or sleep the day away on the deck...it's all here. Yet, you are a 30 minute ferry ride from Bass Harbor and Mt. Desert Island. It's not home away from home, it's 'relax away from home'!
この宿泊施設の特徴
The views from the house and deck make you wake up every morning and think you are in paradise! The low tides are just as pretty as the high tides! Seeing the sea gulls swoop down, pick up a clam or mussel, then fly high over the big boulders that line the shoreline and drop them to crack them open and then eat them is mesmerizing! We like to follow one bird and see where they pick their clam and then guess which boulder they will fly to, drop and eat! We chose this property over others due to the serene location and ocean views.
Make sure you check out Fine Sand Beach, the Quarry swimming hole and TIMS take out - Friday night is pizza night, but order early! Goose Pond is about a mile walk…some may want to crest the ridge behind it for the view of the Atlantic and walk down to the ocean beach. Hike to Noah's Ballast and enjoy the views of Frenchboro! Check out the bold coast on High Head Beach on the east side of the island.
Make the short drive to Hockamock Head Lighthouse. The views are amazing and you will want to see it at low tide and high tide to experience the crashing waves. There are several trails around the lighthouse that take you to 2 different beaches.
Want to dig clams or muscles? Wait for low tide and look for the small holes in the sand! Grab a shovel and start digging!!
