About us
After 27 years in the business, Pat Shaw and Keith Shaw Jr. decided to sell their business in 2006. Fortunately, they were able to find buyers who were from Monson and were dedicated to keeping Shaw's Lodging the same welcoming, friendly, comfortable hostel that it has always been for hikers.
Dawn MacPherson-Allen grew up and still lives two houses up Pleasant Street from Shaw's and has watched the business grow from its creation in 1977 to what it is today. A schoolteacher by trade, she was excited to begin hosting hikers in May and to learn the business from the ground up.
News
Shaw's Lodging "On the Edge of the Hundred Mile Wilderness" is OPEN FOR BUSINESS!!
The sun has come out, the black flies are swarming the trails, and the hikers have started appearing in Monson, Maine. Here at Shaw's we have shaken the rust off after a long winter and a dreary spring. Our rooms are ready for a cool rest, the griddle is warm for cooking our famous breakfast, and our staff is waiting to welcome you for much needed R & R as you enter or exit the great 100 Mile Wilderness.
Hope to see you all soon! Take care on the trail and cherish the walk!
