This is a great trip for school based groups. Our students have the opportunity to hike, build shelters, fish and explore the outdoors. It also builds an appreciation of what the huts have to offer. Get outdoors with your kids! Nancy

We thoroughly enjoyed our 'walk in the woods' this late May weekend. The views hiking to Stratton Brook Hut were bejeweled with only partially opened, chartreuse leaves on the trees, allowing views of the still-snowy Sugarloaf trails. The trilliums were out in full show – both red and white; the weather was perfect through all […]

We left VT on Feb 27th and headed to Maine Huts and Trails for a 4 night 5 day ski with not a flake of snow around our house. What would it be like in Maine? We were surprised at the amount of white in the western mountains of Maine and delighted that there was […]

The huts are all you could expect and more! Great food, wonderful staff (loved Erin and Adam), comfortable sleeping in the bunk rooms, and beautifully designed. The trails are carefully mapped out (many signs with mileage), beautiful scenery along the way, and choices in getting to the huts. The gear shuttle was perfect for the […]

I was part of a group of three women who were desperate for an unplugged get-away – and the hut-to-hut experience was the perfect antidote to our over-booked lives. We all appreciated the warmth (in many ways) and comfort of the huts…and OUTSTANDING food. We also were struck with how easily other guests and the […]

The Maine Huts are truly special. What a luxury to arrive after a ski through the woods to a hut with friendly caretakers and wonderful cooks. These days especially it is great to go off grid and let life slow down. This was our second year coming in the winter. We look forward to adding […]

My brother, daughter and I had a great time again at Maine Huts & Trails. Exceptional staff and food and services. Summitted Little Bigelow from Poplar Hut and South Horn from Stratton Brook Hut on skis and hiking. Staff gave us an early sendoff and packed lunch so we could make the summit and still […]

We were a grandmother with her family which included 2 children (14 & 9) and we had a marvelous time. it was the children's first hut to hut (Stratton Brook night 1 and Poplar night 2) and despite the conditions not being optimal the kids loved it. I think it was a real challenge for […]

Having enjoyed the trails in all seasons for years, we had never actually stayed at a hut. Our daughter gave us a gift certificate for Christmas which we redeemed at the Flagstaff Hut. After an easy 45 minute, beautiful ski in from the trail head to the hut, we arrived, had a nice relax by […]

We had the most amazing time at Flagstaff and Grand Falls Huts. As first timers we didn't quite know what to expect. Our arrival on the first day was early enough to explore the beautiful expanse of Flagstaff Lake. We felt like were the only two people on earth, walking across the frozen tundra surrounded […]

This was my husband and my first trip to a hut. We didn't really know what to expect but we figured that we could rough it through just about anything for a night. We continued to be pleasantly surprised each step of the trip. Our first concern was that the trails might be hard to […]

We recently stayed 3 nights in the Maine Huts — two at Stratton Brook Hut and one at Poplar Hut. We were completely blown away by the cozy, welcoming nature of the Maine Huts! Hearty and delicious home cooked meals, snowshoes free to use at each hut for short hikes during free time, incredibly interesting […]
