| We had the pleasure of staying at the cabin for a week in late June 2008. We were looking for a nice, quiet place and Karen's was absolutely perfect! The cabin is down a little lane with a few other cottages, and all of the neighbors were so nice. Our son especially enjoyed the visits from the local dogs (he donated a few tennis balls and a frisbee to their cause...). The lake itself is so gorgeous and unspoiled. You're lucky if you see more than a handful of boats all day. You actually see more of the loons than you do people out there... A huge bonus was the tandem kayak. We got a lot of use out of that. It was so much fun. The cabin itself is very cute and welcoming. Karen has done a great job of furnishing it, and has some wonderful decorations and books, etc. There's plenty to do if you get the itch to do anything at all. Canada is obviously only a stone's throw away, as well as Eastport and Calais. One night we didn't want to go anywhere really, and had noticed earlier that they were making pizza at the Gulf station down at the end of the lake road. We were driving ourselves nuts trying to find it in the phone book so that we could call down and have a pizza ready to pick up. We couldn't figure it out, so we ended up having to drive over there, so if you stay at the cabin, remember that the Gulf station is known locally merely as 'Strawberry Patch'. The only listing in the phone book for the place is under that name only. Good pizza! ...and yes, fresh strawberries at least when we were there. We're going back again this year and hope to finally meet Karen! Thanks Karen! |
