About Karen Candage
Hello, my name is Karen and I was lucky enough to have been born on this most Beautiful Island called Mt. Desert Island off the coast of Maine. I got married and had a family. I have one son and 3 grandchildren. My son is a lobster men and my 3 grand children are also. 2 boys and a girl. It is a very hard job to do! Acadia National Pk. is located on the Island and it is simply breath taking. The entrance to the Pk. is just 1 1/2 miles from your cottage. So many things to do and see.
Karen Candage purchased this cottage in 1972

Wonderful!
4.8/5 -

Clean, comfortable, quiet, easy access to all tourist attractions
Karen's Cottage was a significant contribution to one of the best vacations my husband and I have ever experienced. It was evident during our pre-arrival contacts and surely upon arrival, that Karen is dedicated to making her guests feel welcome and relaxed. The full range of amenities enabled us to enjoy all aspects of the property both inside and out. We were appreciative of the quiet neighborhood and plenty of space with abutting properties. The brief walk to the waterfront was an added feature that often topped off a day of exploring the grandeur of Acadia National Park.
Also, the cottage floor plan is perfect for a couple who enjoy both shared and individual time. The large kitchen with modern appliances was especially appealing, as was the use of two TVs, WiFi and satellite reception offering a wide range of programming. Cleanliness, practicality and privacy have always been important to us in determining the likelihood of a return to a summer rental. I am pleased to say that Karen's Cottage has become a "home away from home" and we are certain to return as soon as possible. We feel that the cottage is more than a place to lodge while visiting one of the most wonderful landscapes in the world. For us, Karen's cottage is a supportive environment that is an integral part of the entire adventure.
Perfect location on Mount Desert Island
This was our first trip to Maine. We do all our of research on the internet, and Karen's Cottage was very true to the description on the website. It is in a very convenient location with easy access to all of the sites we wanted to see. Yet, it is in a peaceful, beautiful and relaxing setting. The cottage is very clean, and it was well-stocked with paper products, dish & laundry detergent, etc. Even those small things mean a lot when you are on vacation! I hope we get to come back, and we would certainly stay in Karen's Cottage again.
Comfortable well appointed cottage in a great location.
We enjoyed our time in Karen’s cottage. Her cabin is immaculately clean and decorated. All sorts of kitchen utensils, the grill is nice, everything is first rate. The location is very convenient to Bar Harbor and the park.
What a delightful stay!
We have been coming up yo Mt. Desert Island for many years and renting a variety of homes in which to stay. Karen's Cottage was wonderful, I can't say enough about how happy we were with the experience.... and I am hard to please (-:! Perfect location and the home was spotless. Karen provided anything one could need. It was so pleasant to have breakfast on her beautiful deck each morning. We will be returning!
Thank you Karen!
perfect quiet place to stay
We truly enjoyed staying at Karen's cottage. It has all the amenities one could ask for, and has the feeling of being far away in the woods. It was very clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. Very close to all the attractions of Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. Highly recommended!
Well maintained Home with lovely outdoor space.
My family loved the location, the size, and everything about it. The kitchen was huge and we spent most of our home time there. Very comfortable indeed. Bedrooms are decent size, our experience was very pleasant and we would come back to Karen's Cottage should we come back to Acadia. My only suggestion is since its a dog friendly home is to have hardwood floors or tile instead of carpet in the LR. Thank you Karen for taking such good care of your wonderful home. We loved your flowers and seeing the hummingbirds come visit.
