Great Family Ski

We had a fantastic four day adventure with our two sons (8 and 11). What a beautiful place, and a great way to enjoy the rugged beauty of Maine in winter. The Huts staff went out of their way to make the trip enjoyable. We all loved the food — especially dessert! I couldn't recommend […]

Great Cross-Country Skiing Adventure

We skied all four huts – Stratton Brook, Poplar, Flagstaff, and Grand Falls. Huts were wonderful – friendly staff, well organized, heated bunk rooms and main room a real plus, hot showers were welcome, meals very nice and very accommodating to vegetarians, gluten free, etc. Groomed trails a real plus and some had beautiful views […]

Another Magical Weekend

Staying two nights gave us the chance to ski out onto the lake, explore the trail system, and enjoy some downtime in the hut with fellow travelers and friendly hut staff. We had one beautiful, crisp clear […]

Hut-to-Hut Snowshoeing Wonderland

We had a fantastic time snowshoeing between Flagstaff and Poplar huts, two of the 4 huts on the Maine huts and trails circuit. It was several spectacular days of hiking topped off with cozy bunkhouses (we requested private rooms), delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner prepared by the staff, and a warming wood stove. The huts […]

Family Ski

We wanted an adventure, something physically challenging and fun…Maine Hut-to-hut was perfect! The trails were groomed for either skate skiing or classic and the terrain had some nice hills and twists. Lodge hosts were welcoming and informative, in addition to being culinary wizards. Our son now wants to eat more cauliflower and broccoli. We plan […]

New Year’s at Poplar Hut & Stratton Brook Hut

My husband, son and I spent New Year's weekend at the huts, our first time visit. A storm had just dumped two feet of snow, but temps were mild (considering the area and time of year) and we were able to ski into the hut (I would recommend snowshoes if conditions were icy). The folks […]

High Five!

Everything was great, from the super-helpful young lady who booked our stay over the phone, to the facilities at Stratton Brook, which were stunning. The hut was filled almost to capacity, but it never felt even half-full in the main room. The beer and wine selection is amazing, and the food was wonderful. We're already […]

First-rate hospitality

Pleased to have made our first jaunt to Stratton Brook in the snow (up Oak Knoll, down Newton's Revenge). A wonderful surprise to find that my 9 year-old son and I had been placed in a private room, which we did not ask for during reservation. Awesome upgrade, for which we thank you! This crew […]
