About Us
Just a bit about Shamrock Grove, Thornton, NH.
Shamrock Grove has been offering lodging to New Hampshire travelers since the 1930’s!
Generations of families have stayed and continue to make us their vacation destination.
The first building, on what’s now the Shamrock Grove property, was the “Tea Room” (located where the pool is now) where travelers and locals would dine. About ten years later the Red Top Camps were built as a place for people to stay and vacation.
After passing through various owners, and name changes, the property was purchased in the late 1950’s by Don and Phyllis Manning. Many current guests remember coming to the 93 Motel and it’s pancake house when visiting the area with their parents. Phyllis Manning also operated Fifi’s Klutter Shop on site for many years.
In the year 2000, Byron & Donna O’Donnell purchased the property and are proud to continue this history of roadside hospitality. The O’Donnell Family not only offers motel lodging, but have an onsite Country Store, Farmette animal viewing area and the Crucial 10 Craft Cidery and Tasting Room.
