Paradigm Gift On our…read morerecent trip thru Rangeley, we visited a lot of gift shops and this place by far was the best of the bunch. *Pricing was actually fairly good considering the area and it's a touristy location *During both our visits, the service was terrific. On the second visit the guy gave us some trails and sightseeing advice on where to reconnoiter. *Kayak rentals by the hour at a very fair price. I believe a double 'yak was ±$20/hr and if you're not an avid 'yaker then an hour is plenty. Believe you me! *Right off the main strip on a side street, so be sure not to miss them! *Tons of gifty things from clothing and food, to stickers and knickknacks *Hours are seasonal so be aware *Free street parking Conclusion: Best spot in Rangeley to get your souvenirs and gifts.

My family of four (kids ages 7 and 9) was looking for a guided kayaking trip while visiting…read moreRangeley, and we're so glad we found Rangeley Adventure Guide Services through their Instagram page! I messaged Seth (@rangeleyadventureco on IG), and the communication was fantastic -- quick, helpful, and super easy to book. We met Seth at the Rangeley Adventure Company store on 7 Pond Street -- definitely worth checking out for gear and gifts! From there, we followed him on a short 10-minute drive to a launch spot in Oquossoc that we never would have found on our own. We paddled up the Kennebago River and back down into the Cupsuptic -- the perfect route on a beautiful day. Along the way, Seth shared some local history (including cool info about old boat hulls around the lake), spotted wildlife for us (we saw a heron multiple times!), and made the whole experience fun, safe, and relaxed. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and great with our kids. This 3-hour tour ended up being one of the top highlights of our 10 days in Rangeley. If you're considering a canoe or kayak trip in the area, I highly recommend Rangeley Adventure Guide Services. Thanks again, Seth!

As soon as we drove past, I told my husband "Man we should've gone there instead!". It looks so nice and big from the road. That night, we took a moose watching tour. They stop for a bathroom break halfway through and this is the gas station they stopped in. The workers were really kind and fully prepared to handle the swarm of 50+ people all filing in at once. They have clean restrooms, a lot of snack and beverage options, and some good NH souvenirs. I definitely think this is the best option for a gas station within a few hours drive.
