Close to a couple of old fashioned diners also. Our home is waterview, short walk to a sandy beach and walk in swimming. The beach area is very safe for children and the water is sandy and roped in for safety. Enjoy time in the yard by the firepit and walking the dirt roads. Enjoy your coffee and cocktails from the front deck and the farmer’s porch. You will probably be lucky enough to see and hear the loons. We promise you a wonderful vacation experience.
Ellen and Pat’s place is VERY well stocked! They’ve thought of everything! The location is a quiet dirt road. Loved the front porch! Wish it was facing the lake, but still very relaxing. It was a busy weekend at the lake. Pat and Ellen’s family were at the beach, so we found other ways to entertain ourselves. We found an awesome pontoon and jet skis rental available that brought the boat right across the lake (near the brewery). D&N Good Time Rentals LLC. Pat and Ellen offered a boat ride as well. There are 3 sleeping areas. One is a half wall - something to be aware of depending who is going on the trip with you. There are some quirks to the house. Lots of dogs around the property, so would only advice bringing yours if they are good with others. Overall, it was a quick getaway, close to home, on a very cute lake and did the trick for our family.
The house was well stocked and location was great. The only thing I wished I had known ahead of time is that one of the bedrooms was a loft and not an actulal room.
We had a wonderful stay at the Paddy Shack. The house was clean and spacious with everything we needed. The shared beach and swimming area were a ton of fun for us, our dog, and our friends. We had the chance to meet Pat and Ellen and they were fantastic hosts. We hope to return next summer!
Pat and Ellen, Paddy Shack is beautiful it had everything and more than we needed. The boat ride around the lake with you both was amazing. The Lake water is so clean and clear we had such a good time playing in the sand and floating on the raft you provided. Great family memories were made and we cant wait to come back next year.
Ellen and Pat have a little slice of Heaven and were gracious hosts. The home had everything you could possibly want or neeed for a relaxing stay. The little extras like the dog toys, bed and bowls as well as all of the water sports equipment for our use was appreciated. Pat even took our girls tubing and gave all the adults a relaxing ride on his brand new pontoon boat with a tour of the lake! They are a couple who we would call friends as they are both so pleasant.
Everything you need and more.
We had a great time staying at the Paddy Shack for our family vacation. The house itself was very nice with an open concept that was perfect for spending time with the family. The beach area was great especially for our 3 year old daughter. It is hard to find both a family and pet friendly place to stay and this checked off all our boxes. Our hosts were so helpful and went above and beyond to make our stay memorable!
Staying at the Paddy Shack was great fun for all. The hosts and neighbors were friendly, helpful and welcoming. We had a wonderful tome!
We had a great stay. Ellen and Pat were excellent hosts and the house had everything you could possibly nee for a week at the lake!
Pat & Ellen are gracious hosts! The house was spotless and attention was given to small things travelers might need, like sunblock and forgotten toothbrushes. The furniture is comfy and we loved how they had everything from paper plates to weighty cutlery and wine and martini glasses. There are even s'mores sticks to roast your marshmallows by the fire pit. They made it clear not to hesitate to ask if there was anything else we might need. It's a short walk down a fairly steep hill to get to the lake. We pretty much had the small sandy beech to ourselves our entire week there. There were plenty of chairs and tables and lots of flotation devices, including a chaise lounge (my favorite!) and a water pad. My husband & I enjoyed the kayaks, and our daughter enjoyed showing us all up on the paddle board. If you are looking for a nice private retreat to get away with your family (only 5-6 other houses grouped on the road) this is a great spot! Within a 10 minute ride is a really nice brewpub/full restaurant/outdoor creamery with an excellent breakfast/lunch diner across the street. Hannaford's market only 15 minutes away. Lots of great day trips within 30 minutes (like Wolfeboro & Weird beach) to an hour (like Portsmouth and York Maine beaches).
