As advertised, the cabin was fully stocked and very comfortable. The recommended hiking trails and beach in the area from the cottage were great for us - the hikes had astonishing views and the wild blueberries were ready for the picking. Can’t say enough about those scenic Atlantic views! Favs Schoodic Point and Grindstone. Thank you so much for our pleasant stay.

Nice, modern property in a beautiful, quiet location. Easy access to local trails and parks.

This cottage was spacious and in a peaceful location. All the furniture was super comfy and the different rooms were all very well planned and well oriented. The outside had a little grass landing to play outdoor games. The firepit and the view from the front door was lovely. Everyone in the family including our pup enjoyed staying there very much.

Pyne Cove was a beautiful location and a great place to stay.

We stayed at the Pyne Cove cottage for a week. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The info provided at the house as full of good tips. The house was well provisioned and comfortable. Great beds! Ray Carbone the sculptor was a great find! The cove is tidal so pretty much inaccessible to kayaks or swimming if the tide isn’t high. There is another water access point close by, but we just did more hiking. The Sunrise on Pigeon hill is spectacular!

This was a wonderful place to stay. A lot of thought went into the design and furnishings of the house itself and the outdoor spaces. Between swimming in the cove and running around in the woods our dog had the best week of his life! The immediate area is beautiful, multiple hikes on the peninsula without a soul around. For a rural area we were please to find multiple good dining options and a full-ish sized grocery store within 10 minutes. Getting to the Schoodic peninsula wasn't a long drive, we also made excursions to Mount Desert Island and Camopbello Island. We highly recommend!

This cottage was perfect in every way for our exploration of Acadia and Down East Maine! My husband and I took our twelve-year-old granddaughter to her choice of National Parks, and Acadia was the winnner! The location of Pyne Cove Cottage enabled us to access Schoodic Peninsula as well as Bar Harbor and then retreat to our quiet cottage for an evening of movies, puzzles, lobster and s'mores. . . . the attention to every detail, the tasteful choices of decor, smartly edited for Down East flavor without the kitsch, the well-stocked spice drawer—and Pride and Prejudice film to boot (our granddaughter's favorite book!) It could not have been better! These are memories of a lifetime. We are so happy. . . . thank you, Michael!

We had an awesome family vacation here! It was a wonderful, quiet location great for stargazing and relaxation. Owners were very attentive and home was fully stocked and comfortable.

What a gem! We had a wonderful stay at Pyne Cove Cottage. It is the perfect place to unplug and unwind. The house was clean and well stocked. We were able to find plenty to keep us busy in the area.

The cabin was as-advertised and beautiful. It had everything we needed for our stay. It was extremely quiet at night and a nice retreat away. It was a little over an hour drive to Acadia National Park, but there is a lot to do at the cabin, as well as hiking in Petit Manan. It is also a short drive to the Schoodic Peninsula. We really enjoyed our trip and the cabin was exactly what we were looking for.

Pyne Cove Cottage was perfect for us and exactly what we were looking for - a private, picturesque place on the water that was family and pet friendly. The cottage is beautiful, comfortable, and well-stocked with of all the essentials (and more). The cottage is tucked into a pine forest with a great view of the water from the front rooms. We brought our kayaks and enjoyed getting out on the water as the tide came in; we were thrilled to see bald eagles flying overhead. Milbridge was a quick 10 minute drive, where we found groceries, seafood, a gift shop and a beautiful community garden. The hiking trail and beach just a few minutes down the road from the cottage were great for us - the hike had amazing views at the top and wild blueberries, ready for the picking. Beautiful Schoodic Point is also just a short ~ 20 minute drive away. All in all, we throughly enjoyed our stay - a truly recharging time. Our thanks to the hosts, Mike and Sheila for being so kind, helpful, and accommodating. It was very easy to communicate with them and they offered great recommendations that made our stay extra enjoyable.

Michael and Sheila are wonderful hosts, and their exquisite cottage made for one of our best family vacations. My wife and I spent a week with our seven-year-old and two-year-old. The 3 acre property offers a nice slice of down east scenery, and the cottage is a delightful, comfortable place to spend time—it is clear a lot of thought went into it, and everything is high quality. We had a wonderful time in spite of the less-than-ideal weather (it rained more often than not during our stay). We made several day trips to Acadia National Park (about an hour drive to Bar Harbor, but only about 25 minutes to the quieter Schoodic side of the park). One day we took the ferry from Winter Harbor into Bar Harbor. While Acadia is famous for a reason, we were pleasantly surprised by the gems within a couple miles of the cottage. A couple miles up Pigeon Hill road lies some outstanding hiking trails, which we had more or less to ourselves. The Schoodic peninsula offers much of the legendary Acadia scenery without the crowds. We were impressed by the food options in this relatively remote corner of the world (The Meadows, just a mile or so up the Road; Vasquez Mexican Food, the Pickled Wrinkle near Schoodic, and the outstanding fresh seafood from Chipman’s, which we cooked in the well-provisioned kitchen). We were also delighted to find a community vegetable garden in nearby Millbridge. We were truly sad to leave at the end of the week and look forward to returning.

Perfect location and well appointed, comfortable cabin. We felt right at home!

This property is magical! When you step out of the car you are greeted by the smell of pine and a water view. The cabin and property are even better in person than in the pictures. Due to the pandemic we had to push our visit back a year and it was well worth the wait- the property owners were super flexible and understanding. The location is a perfect mix of quiet relaxation and plenty to do nearby. We visited Acadia, found a local winery, cooked fresh sea food, traveled north to Lubec, and read in the hammock by the cove. This is the best rental I’ve ever experienced.

The home was exactly as advertised, and we had a great week exploring the town and the region. First, the house. On the ground floor: There are two bedrooms, a large family room, full bathroom, kitchen, and screened-in porch. There is a large loft area one flight up, where there are plenty of seats and a television. The grounds are private and you are right on the water. You can somewhat see another home, but it's fairly far off and through the trees. The driveway is gravel and easy for any type of car to navigate. Second, the region. The house is just up the street from a couple of terrific hiking paths, and we hiked them multiple times during our stay. They are dog-friendly, which is a plus. The house is also a short drive to the Schoodic Peninsula portion of Acadia. This portion of the park is much less crowded, and the views/trails are great. In addition, you are only about 8-10 minutes away from a large grocery store and a few restaurants in Milbridge. It makes things so much easier when you don't have to drive 40 miles to grab something to eat. Overall, I would recommend this house to anyone looking to get away and explore the region.

This property was the perfect spot for our family of 5 and our dog. Beautiful location. The house has all you need and has beautiful touches throughout. Would definitely go back again! Owners were very nice and helpful.

The attention to detail is exceptional in this cottage. The decor is inviting, kitchen is well stocked, furniture is comfortable, out door space is fun (we enjoyed the hammock). It was a comfortable space for 5 adults. The owners were available for any questions.

We had a great time at the cottage. Everything is supplied and there was plenty of room for our 5 people. I also appreciated the gift of local blueberry jam that we enjoyed on thick slices of toast in the morning. Thank you Michael and Sheila for allowing us to stay in your home.

The Cottage was warm and inviting and included pretty much everything we needed to enjoy our week's stay. After a bit of an issue checking in the remainder of our stay was great. Close enough to Acadia and Bar Harbor, yet far enough away to be out of the mainstream traffic. Sitting around the campfire and star gazing was a highlight as well as our last night dinner of a lobster, steamer, sausage and corn boil. Yum!

Really enjoyed our stay at Pyne Cove Cottage. Very peaceful setting yet close to some great hiking and beautiful scenery. The little town close by ( Milbridge ) was so convenient and had everything we needed to stock up for our stay. The people there were so friendly too. We were traveling with our dogs and they couldn’t have had a better time.

We really enjoyed our stay! The views were gorgeous and it was so peaceful. We hiked in Petit Mannan and Pigeon Hill, we made excursions into Acadia National Park, Saint Stephen, New Brunswick Canada, and Roque Bluffs. Vasquez Mexican Takeout was delicious.

I found this cottage online on a Friday, and contacted the homeowners right away. I needed a place the very next day as I had just lost my house to fire. Mike could not have been any nicer, or more accommodating. With one days notice he managed to adjust things, rearrange housekeeping, and make exceptions for my needs so that I had a place to stay. He was wonderful. The cottage.... it is a beautiful house and the location was perfect. I am lucky enough to live in Maine, so I wasn’t looking for a vacation, I needed somewhere to rest, destress, and pull myself back together after the fire. This was just the cottage. It is thoughtfully decorated, you can tell they take pride in the house. Exceptionally clean, has everything you could need, and quite possibly two of the most comfortable couches I have ever sat on! There are throw blankets in every room which was a lovely touch. The bed was also great and I was able to catch up on much needed sleep. TV has the Netflix/Amazon option which I hadn’t seen before, it gave me a chance to watch some cool documentaries, and just relax. I also rediscovered my love for movies as they have a great DVD collection. They provide TONS of useful information about the area. There is a binder filled with things, that even as a local, I didn’t know about. And everything in the binder is up to date which was impressive. When I first walked up to the cottage, there were gorgeous flowers blooming in two flower beds, the house is surrounded by trees and is truly secluded. There was a fire pit, a path to the water, and two hammocks. Very picturesque. The best part of my stay had to be the homeowners though. They were always available, and even checked in on me, which I really appreciated. There were many special touches when I arrived, Mike & Sheila have made the cottage very welcoming. They have a great attention to detail, and are a total pleasure to deal with. I hope to come back under happier circumstances so I can really enjoy all that Pyne Cove has to offer. Thank you for a wonderful week, Nicole (and Princess, and the late, Kodi :) Gouldsboro, Maine

Out of all the listings we chose Pyne Cove Cabin to celebrate our 30th anniversary. We loved the secluded cozy setting near the water. The listing description and pictures are 100% accurate. Mike and Sheila were great hosts, and were always quick to respond if we had any questions. The cabin interior is tastefully decorated, warm, inviting, and is outfitted with all the conveniences. Outside, there was plenty of room to let our dog "Malakai" run and play. Sitting by the fire pit while looking up at the night sky, there were more stars than we than we would ever see back home. We could even see the Milky Way! There is so much to do within 15-30 minutes of the their cabin. Petit Manon has several beautiful hiking trails out to the water and rocky shoreline. A short hike up Pigeon Hill provided almost 300 degree stunning views. Scoodic Point (part of Acadia) is just an awesone place to spend a day and explore. Plus, no crowds. We were there during the first week of October and had much of the area to ourselves. Many small quaint fishing villages are tucked along the Down East coast. Shopping in Bar Harbor and exploring Acadia National Park are only 45-50 minutes away. "Thank you", Mike and Sheila, for sharing your slice of heaven. We hope to return someday. Keith, Dawne and Malakai

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 night stay at Payne Cove Cabin. Wonderful location in a wooded, quiet setting overlooking a tidal cove. Cabin is well furnished, comfortable and up to date. The owners are good to work with and checked in with us during our stay. We definitely plan to return when next in Maine. Doug Roberts Fla.

Great location for exploring. Lots to see and do in this area. We found a beautiful sandy beach and went swimming with our poodle! No one else around. QUIET!
