Awesome location and beautiful setting. Very glad we stayed here versus closer to the chaos of Bar Harbor (that was great for the day trip, but too busy for me!)

Enjoyed our stay at Rocky Beach. House is very well kept, clean and well organized. Loved the sandy/rocky beach front for fires at night (watching the stars) and sunrise in the morning. Hope to be back.

The cottage stay was just what we were looking for! From the fire pit down at the beach, to the gentle layout of the home. I’m a local in the vacationing business, and it met all of our needs very nicely! Thank you for having us!

The cottage was amazing! It has a private beach and a wonderful firepit just off it. The cottage itself is comfy and quite tranquil. Perfect for an escape from the city!

We had a wonderful time and the neighborhood was quiet. We were able to rest and recharge. We had everything we needed and it was very clean and host was accommodating. The view was breathtaking and we loved having the beach so close. It was a great way to spend our evenings. We will definitely be back

If you need a spot to get away and relax in a lovely cottage this is it. The water is right out back - beautiful sunsets - super quiet. The cottage was very clean and updated and had everything we needed. The hosts were great and helpful. We will be back!

This house was a really good place for my family. The host was really responsive and helpful (they knew we had an infant so they put a pack ‘n play crib at the house for us and responded to questions within minutes). The house was very clean and nicely appointed. The lobster steam cooker they have on the property was such a fun experience and really easy to use. I would not hesitate to go back!

Alice and Kyle were amazing hosts starting with tips for our trip all the way through to the end! Their VRBO is so comfortable - spacious kitchen for cooking and nice living room with a gas fireplace that heats the room and provides great ambience for movies! The location of their Adirondack chairs and fire pit provides great sunrise views! There are several small restaurants in the area and Schoodic Peninsula is easy to explore - and the trails are not as highly trafficked as over in the main part of Acadia. Great location for some R&R time in any kind of weather!

VRBO was extremely well equipped (with fire pit, logs and s’mores provided) and very clean. One of the best we have ever stayed in and pictures are accurate. Very close to Corea on the wharf restaurant for fresh lobster. Only issue was new house being built next door that caused quite a bit of noise. I would have liked to know that before the trip so we could have planned our stay during more of the weekend when there were no workers.

We know this area well and there are lots of choices of where to stay. You will be so thankful you picked this property. The moment you enter, you will feel at home. It mirrors the pictures on line and you will have everything you need in the house. The sunporch was our favorite spot, facing the water while watching the lobstermen haul their traps, the blue herons, Canadian geese, loons and birds of many types. There is not one thing I would change; we will definitely choose this cottage again. My granddaughter especially loved the snack tray. I could go on and on about all the touches that were special. Thank you Alice for making our vacation perfect.

My husband and I enjoyed this home with our two children (19 & 21). The quiet neighborhood was great to relax and enjoy the outdoor space at the home. It was close to grocery and lobster markets to ensure we had everything we needed (we visited Winter Harbor Co-Op every day for our fresh lobsters!!) Although, planning ahead was key as everything was closed between 5-7pm. Driving to Bar Harbor and "the big park" was easy, but we really enjoyed exploring the Schoodic Peninsula and appreciated being away from the hustle and bustle (and lines!!)

This cottage has everything you need! Great to wake up every morning with coffee & watch the lobster boats, even better to come back in the evening & build a fire & roast marshmallows! Less than an hour to drive to Bar Harbor & Acadia. Cottage was clean, beds comfortable, kitchen well equipped! Hosts were quick to respond to our questions. Thanks for the welcome basket! Would definitely recommend!

This is a gem of a cottage. The owners have done a great job of making this a beautiful place to relax and enjoy. They have a seafood pot if you want to cook fresh seafood, lots of cozy blankets, and even a back-up generator if the power goes out! (Generator is noisy, especially at night being right outside the main bedroom so we did have one night of bad sleep as the generator was on for 7 hours, but a nice feature to have.). There are serval cute restaurants to drive to, but be sure to check hours as many places are only open part of the week (or at least this was true during our visit right after Labor Day). We also recommend taking the ferry from Winter Harbor over to Bay Harbor for the day just to enjoy the scenery from the water.

Came here for remote relaxation and was not disappointed. The Cabin is perfect for a four person stay. I enjoyed every night at the fire near the ocean under every star in the universe. The proximity to Schoodic Point is outstanding, the least crowded part of Acadia. I spent most of the days hiking in the park or sitting on the rocky cliffs watching the crashing waves. Recommend Winter Harbor for groceries, gas and alcohol (MCs Market Place across from the Pickled Wrinkle). The host was excellent as we were greeted with snacks and gifts and was very responsive to all information requests and very helpful planning our trip. Very clean and the beds were extremely comfortable. The lighted path to the ocean was a plus and tide pooling right out the back door was awesome....recommend using the lantern at night to catch crabs. Thank you for an excellent time!

After booking Rocky Beach Cottage, I was contacted/welcomed by the owner...with kind and helpful communication/updates prior to our arrival. Upon a late (midnight) arrival, the lights were on and we walked into an immaculate, yet very cozy/inviting, reTREAT! Upon waking to a beautiful sunrise, the lapping ocean sounds against the rocky coastline had me skipping outside to fully enjoy the most peaceful setting. Priceless. I had not been back to Maine for 30+ years. Staying in such an inviting cottage, and neighborhood (saw a deer saunter by during a misty evening stroll down the road!), with all the necessary amenities, I truly did not want to leave.

Amazing all around. Alice and Kyle were so helpful and the house and location were top notch. The house has a nice yard, awesome fire pit, grill, and is right on the water. House is renovated and is simply perfect. Cozy couch with fireplace. Sunroom was a favorite to relax and read, play games in, and the beds were so comfortable. Everything we needed was provided including lobster pots and a separate stove to use outside. Sunrise was gorgeous and we were spoiled with a thunder moon during our stay. The surrounding towns were great. We did a great lobster tour and saw seals, puffins ;) The schoodic part of Acadia was perfect for hiking and biking, and we took our kayaks out in a local pond. Main Acadia hiking was about an hour away. We found a few local markets for food, and tried out some restaurants that Alice and Kyle recommended. Overall, would give rocky beach cottage two thumbs up. You won’t be disappointed.

We had the most amazing time at Rocky Beach Cottage. From the moment we opened the door, everything was sparkling clean and everything we needed was provided! Alice and Kyle were wonderful to work with and the cottage is stocked with all the extras including a s’mores kit, toiletries, laundry detergent and snacks! We drove in but if you are flying in just pack your personal belongings because everything you need is here! The location is amazing, on the Schoodic Peninsula which is the slow side of Acadia and gorgeous! You can easily drive or take the ferry to Bar Harbor and the rest of Acadia. There are fewer but very delicious restaurants near by and places to get fresh lobster off the boat. There is also a very fun ice cream/snack shop just down the road that our teenager frequented almost every afternoon. So many outdoor activities to do and definitely visit Schoodic Point which was our favorite spot in Acadia and just a 10-15 minute drive. We had the park to ourselves and gorgeous weather. If you are scrolling through, just stop and book now!

The cabin and property are beautiful, updated, and well maintained. The hosts go above and beyond to ensure you have everything you need (i.e. binder with local attractions, helpful notes/instructions, warm/comfy blankets, great coffee bar area with ice maker, wood for camp fire, plenty of TP/paper towels etc.) The welcome note with snacks was a fun surprise and appreciated. They respond quickly to any questions as well. We spent a day in Bar Harbor/Acadia, found a lot to do & see there, and loved hiking in the park. Some may prefer the crowds and busy-ness of Bar Harbor, and the drive went fast if you want to spend more time there. We loved exploring the Schoodic Peninsula, and found we preferred the calm, peaceful atmosphere, which had plenty for us. We enjoyed seeing the fishing villages, wine tasting at Bartlett winery & distillery, trying local beers at Bunker's seafood & spirits, great ice cream at "Me & Ben's Dairy Creme", a variety of sea & land food options not too far away, and friendly people/service everywhere we stopped. Our favorite spot was Schoodic Point, where we could have spent a full day climbing on the rocks and enjoying the spectacular view. We saw plenty of people biking and hiking at Acadia Schoodic and wished we'd had more time to do that too. It was a wonderful visit, and we would definitely come back!

The house was perfect for us, well taken care of, clean and love how the hosts left some treats. We needed them after a long day of travel to get there when we checked in. The weather wasn't super cooperative, but on our first full day, it was clear. We watched the sunrise, that alone was worth the trip. It will be etched in my memory forever, just incredible and I would recommend, you won't regret it. The one thing most noticable was the quietness of the area, my girlfriend and I talked about that often, you can hear a pin drop there, so if that's important, you won't go wrong. You do trade off the quietness however with access to places to eat, so keep that in mind, be prepared to drive. We visited Acadia twice while we were there and once while in Bar Harbor, the park near the cottage has less people and is more beautiful than the Bar Harbor side, just amazing. The hosts did recommend we stop on our drive in at a grocery store for provisions and I urge anyone to do the same. There is a new place called Bunkers we found on our last day, never showed up on any internet searches,its about 15 minutes away, down the street of the ice cream shop and was awesome, both are, you won't regret the blueberry ice cream sandwhich at the ice cream place, had we known about Bunkers on day 1, probably would have eaten dinner there every night. If you are looking for quiet and willing to drive, you have found the ideal place, thank you Alice, you have a wonderful house, it was hard to leave

We loved our stay at Rocky Beach! The property and home were exactly as described/pictured on the website. The cottage was decorated beautifully, and supplied everything we needed and more. The location was convenient to the lobster boats and Acadia Park, both which were very enjoyable. The firepit in the back yard by the beach was a great way to unwind after long days of sightseeing. The hosts were always just a message away, and responded to all our questions quickly. We will definitely plan to stay at Rocky Beach again!

The description on Vrbo is understated. This is a great get away from the population. Everything was great. We enjoyed the Schoodic Acadia near by and rate it as the best kept secret. We wanted to get away from people and found this to be a great spot. Enjoyed Lunch on the Wharf in Corea and the other close restaurants as well. Spent 2 hours in Bar Harbor and couldn’t get out fast enough. If it’s your scene, this is still a great place to stay and have your own beach privacy.
