Monson is tiny, but it's all you need! Shaw's Hiker Hostel is legendary and Poet and Hippie Chick are just amazing. The convenience store pizza is awesome too!
LOVE Lakeshore House! Rebekah understands hikers' needs and goes out of her way to make this a great hostel. She didn't even judge me when I asked if I could take my glass of cranberry-lemonade into the shower (the 100-mile wilderness will do that to you sobos).
