The eagles, seals, bird life and tides were so fun to watch! The house is situated perfectly for views of the water, both near and distant. The kitchen is very well stocked with pantry essentials and cookware. The beds were comfortable, but the bedrooms didn’t have much storage. It is a very clean and well-cared for home. The location is so convenient to a grocery store and pizza place. There is limited beach walking here, but great state parks nearby for enjoyable hiking.
Wonderful location and views.
Glen Cove is a perfect place to gather with family or friends. Really enjoyed the large area of land to explore, beach access, and amenities. The home (and upper cabin) are very clean, comfortable, and cozy. I’d definitely stay there again.
We love Glen Cove! What a treasure! My small group of four poets found the quiet and privacy of Glen Cove very relaxing. The view from the picture window in the living room is better than any TV or screen. We saw seals, sea lions, and lots of birds—Great Blue Herons, eagles, kingfishers, and many others. A doe and two fawns wandered across the lawn. The kitchen was well-appointed, and we made all our meals there. (A well-stocked grocery store is ten minutes away.) The bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable and attractive We roasted marshmallows for "some-mores" on the fire pit on the beach. We went for walks in the forest and on the one-lane road leading to the house. Beach combing! Glen Cove would be a paradise for kids. Kayaks. Volleyball on the sand spit. Lots of space for games and exploration. My group enjoyed a cozy time of reading, writing, and conversation which was restful and just what we needed. Thank you, Glen Cove. We'll be back!
We loved the location, and the house and kitchen were more stocked than most houses we have rented (kitchen items, games/activities, extra bed comforters, etc.)! The cleaning could have been better though.
Only thing that was rather noisy was the furnace. Everything else was just great—peaceful, quiet, and beautiful surroundings.
