Great getaway!

Karp Camp is a great hidden gem on Wilson Pond. Comfortable, rustic and well- appointed for a relaxing getaway. The lake is clean and there is plenty of space in the house with the porch. The hosts are easy to contact and very responsive.

Rustic Getaway

We loved the screened porch and swimming for hours in the “pond.” Pond doesn’t do justice to this large lake with crystal clear water. Our hosts just next door were friendly and helpful!

Rustic but loved it

The lake is beautiful. The sunsets are amazing. The kids loved swimming and kayaking in the lake. If you don't like nature then this is not the place for you. We love nature and respect it's critters. Alot of spiders but they are fascinating and they were all outside. The space accommodated the 6 of us perfectly. We had a good time.

We enjoyed our time on the screened in porch which is where we were most of the time. The beds where very firm which i would rather have then soft. My old bones would have enjoyed a 2 inch memory foam, but I was happy. Enjoyed our stay.

Visiting family members enjoyed their stay

The cottage is an old-style Maine camp with a few updates. We were apparently the 1st guests of the season, and surfaces had not been thoroughly wiped of the build up of dust, insects, etc.. There were also some stains in the carpets. Otherwise, our family members, who were visiting from another state, were happy with the accommodations and enjoyed Wilson Pond.

We had a fantastic time and felt relaxed and cozy in the cottage. I am used to a soft mattress at home so the firm mattress in the master bedroom took some time to get used to.

Vacation

My family (partner, 3yo, and dog) and I had a great time. The week started out hot so we spent a lot of time in the pond swimming and looking around in the water. We enjoyed doing lots of local things like a hike, thrifting, and checking out the local eateries. The location of the house was great, you can get to a grocery store in 10 minutes but the house itself was semiprivate. By the looks of the pictures I thought we wouldn’t see another house but the house is nestled between two other homes, though a good distance from one another. I only bring this up because my dog is a little crazy around new people but we didn’t see anyone during the week. Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would definitely recommend.

It was just okay

Not bad. Not great. I think we were the first tenants of the season because no one had swept or cleaned. Very musty. Lotsa cobwebs. Tough swimming because of rocky bottom. Very steep path to water. Okay place just not worth what we paid. 3 stars.

I loved this cabin! The weather was perfect for hiking, swimming or just relaxing on the awesome dock. It was just me and my dog and it was the best! I would love to return. I have absolutely no complaints except maybe a price adjustment could be made for a single renter. The the additional fees etc. will push it out of my budget range for another stay. Other than that, I highly recommend this place!

Comfortable and fully equipped lakeside cottage

The cottage was incredibly comfortable and well-equipped. The quiet lakeside setting is beautiful, and it truly feels like a getaway – but nothing's left behind. Full kitchen, fast Internet, comfy living room, hot shower, lots of power outlets. An escape, with no compromises. Looking forward to returning next summer!
