Brought us back to our years living in Maine. Our cherished state!

First time expected to bring your own linens and towels to a rental...read the fine print! The 5 bedrooms included a loft area with 3 comfortable Queen beds separated by partial room dividers and a covered porch with two twin beds. After our initial surprise in discovering these accommodations, my friends and I embraced the experience and enjoyed discovering a wide variety of antiques, interesting old books and other curiosities. Evenings around the fire and a paddle around the peaceful pond were a plus. IF your group is looking for a quaint and rustic Maine camp experience and privacy is not an issue, this might be the place for you!

Once again, a wonderful week on Whetstone Pond! (This was our third stay here, and hopefully, it won’t be our last).

We had another great stay at the cottage on the pond, and we are looking forward to visiting again for a week in August. It really checks all the boxes for us: great swimming, excellent hiking nearby, fantastic sunsets, to name a few. We loved it. Thank you, Karen!

My time at the Whetstone Pond cottage was fantastic! The property sits close to the water, so entry and exit of the pond was super convenient. Water is above-quality, the view of the western mountains amazing. The camp itself is charming, clean, very cozy and rustic. Exactly as a Maine camp should be! The hostess was extremely responsive extremely easy to work with. A must if you are looking for a true camp experience!

Second year here. We like the place and so do my fiancee's grown children. Been making this. They have been making this pilgrimage their entire life and their mom for over 50 years. Glad to have found this nice place to continue the tradition.

We loved everything about our stay The host was very responsive and polite. The house is beautiful and big. The kitchen is very well equipted. You can see the love and effort the owner had put here. We loved having breakfast watching the water and dinners on the deck watching the sunset. Karen even lend us their kayaks and we had a wonderful time exploring around the pond My dog loved the house, the backyard and the water! We honestly hope we can come back soon!

Like the family camp on a lake that I never had - comfortable, filled with antiques, fully usable mid-20th century kitchen utensils, coffee cans and such. The lake is beautiful, and sitting on the Adirondack chairs on the dock with coffee or a drink is sublime.

They do allow motorized boats on the lake so there are speed boats and occasionally jetskis. We really enjoyed kayaking down to the marsh at the end of the lake but we weren't lucky enough to see moose.

I loved this vacation. We made full use of the kitchen everyday with homemade fresh meals, we love canoeing and kayaking. It was amazing to be so away from it all. It was the perfect get away for my family.
