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.

Check in was very easy and the camp was clean. We loved the screened in porch. It was kind of steep getting to the water for us older folks and no ladder to get on the dock. Swimming area was great. We tried the grill on the porch as instructed but we ended up with smoke everywhere, suggest an area for grilling outside. Overall we had a wonderful time connecting with family and friends

Beautiful Sunsets Rustic Camp

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.

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.

A Maine escape

We spent 5 days here and loved the location, the quiet, kayaking, fishing and the loons and bald eagles. We did have some concerns with the care and cleanliness of the property. We have rented many cottages and homes over the years and felt this cottage was a bit neglected. We do appreciated having been able to spend a relaxing weekend enjoying a birthday and a wedding in the Monmouth/Manchester area.
