Guest Comments from 2007: ...thanks for your place. It was wonderful. Just perfect for me and my family…It really hit the spot overall...we really unwound and found time for Bar Harbor, the west side of the island, Ellsworth, the lumber jack show, golf, kayaking, whale watching…, hiking in the park….we loved it and hope to return again in the future. Thanks again for making it possible.---- Frank S Glen Rock, NJ

Guest Comments from 2007: We just returned from our vacation to Maine a few days ago—wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed Goose Cove Cottage! It was even more than we expected….I don’t think I told you before the trip: my parents’ favorite vacation spot has always been Maine, but because of their age, they haven’t been back to Acadia National Park for over 10 years; so we put together this family trip so my folks could return there, and the cottage turned out to be the perfect spot for us. Thank you— Jonathan M Highlands Ranch, CO

Guest Comments from 2007: Wow - what a lovely home! We had a great time - thank you so much. Everyone commented on the comfortable beds, lovely bedding, beautiful kitchen, and of course we loved the videos and big TV! The house was perfect for us all…we'd love to have stayed longer.---- Diane R Moncton, NB

Other Activities: rock climbing, hiking, kayaking, canoing

excellent home for enjoying Acadia

25th Asbury, NJ
Review Submitted: July 24, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We really enjoyed "goose cove cottage". After a long day of enjoying all that Acadia has to offer we knew that returning to this lovely home would be the perfect ending to a day filled with hikes along the shore and through the many trails on Desert island. My wife wanted to take the furniture home with us. The Beds and Recliners were exceptional. My only complaint is that we thought we would be 1 mile from a beach and the beach is actually a half hour away. Overall I'm glad we had such a great place to celebrate our 25th.
Owner's Response: I am delighted that all of my guests have truly enjoyed the quality of this cottage, the peace and quiet of its location, along with the numerous amenities that are provided. One thing, however, does require some clarification. The cottage is within a mile of the ocean. The closest access to shoreline/beach area starts at only 3 miles (5 minutes) away. And, of course, there are many other shoreline/beach access areas scattered all over Mt. Desert Island, Lamoine, and Winter Harbor, with varied driving times depending on location. Since Mt. Desert Island, along with the National Park, is located in the portion of Maine that is noted for its rugged, rocky coastline, it should be stated that there are few sandy beaches to be found in this region. The one most well known is called Sand Beach (and is, in fact, predominantly made up of very finely crushed shell rather than sand). It is located on the Park Loop road well within the Park and is a 20 to 30 minute drive from the cottage, depending on traffic and the visitor’s knowledge of the quickest route to reach it. Since it is located in the National Park, there is no lodging facility located within a mile of it.
