Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at theshackatlakeanna@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Why is it called The Shack?

The Shack is named after my maternal grandparents’ summer home. They vacationed on the Massachusetts Bay dating back to the 1950’s. I spent my childhood summers jumping off their pier into the ocean, swimming, and looking for crabs under the rocks. My cousins and I have such fond memories and we are looking forward to creating the same for our children and guests.
