Getaway on the Cove - New to VRBO 2023

Beautiful Chalet like home on a cove of your own. Very remote feel yet close to everything. Great for multiple families to get together and yet still have space of their own.

We are new to VRBO but have rented the property with Airbnb for the past few years and have a 5.0 rating.

Seclusion and privacy, with a feeling of remoteness, yet close access to all necessities and to Acadia National Park.

A long winding gravel road leads to the house, deep in the Singing Woods, right on the shore of Kilkenny cove. The nearest neighbors are 1/4 mile away, and other than the caretaker (he lives in a seperate, private apartment) and clammers on the tidal flats of the cove, you won't see anyone.

Yet there is a convienice store just a few minutes away and the town of Ellsworth, with all he necessary stores, is only 10 minutes away.

Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Mount Desert Island are only 30 minutes away.
+ Incredible views of an ocean cove!
+ Ocean front! Rocky "Beach/Beach front"
+ Secluded, large four bedroom home right on the shore
+ Nestled in the "Singing Woods"
+ 2 kitchens, 4 Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms, 2 Living/Dining
+ Private entrances
+ WiFi and cell service
+ Acadia National Park! 30 min drive to Acadia, Bar Harbor, MDI, Schoodic Point
+ Hiking: trails on property, many within short drive
+ Kayaking (borrow ours)
+ Exploring the shore
+ Tons of wildlife + birds: Eagles, osprey, waterfowl, seals
+ 10 min from Ellsworth
