We stayed at this Seal Cove rental in mid June, 2017. And, yes, the home is lovely and definitely full of Maine "charm"....the views are amazing, the kitchen has everything one could want for fun lobster meals, there is lots of room, the location is convenient to all of the great hiking trails in Acadia, and all in all, our stay was fine. However, while we were staying at this home, there were a few things which hindered my partner and my ability to have a peaceful vacation. First of all, we rented this place because it was advertised as being "private". Well, renters beware...there is a home right next door and during out stay, there was construction going on...this loud construction woke us up a few very early mornings and hindered our much needed vacation. We did approach the owner, and she was responsive. However, out of our 7 day stay, we were awoken or bothered by loud noise 3 days out of the 7. This added an annoyance and much aggravation. Hopefully, this will not be a problem for any other renters in the future. Luckily, the owner gave us a small discount for our stay. Also, the bathtub/shower in the main bathroom was not really usable, as it was not steady, and somewhat dangerous.
Our experience on the whole, left us with some what of a biter taste for this stay.
We have rented many places in the past, and unfortunately, this was not our favorite. With this location, and charm of the home, this should have been stellar....and it ended up just being "so, so".
