I felt so lucky all weekend to get to enjoy the best aspects of nature in Carrabassett Valley while being comfortable with great food choices and meeting new people along the way.  The Poplar Hut staff were knowledgeable and helpful for us to get the most out of our time there.  Looking forward to my […]

My wife, Nancy, and I had a most enjoyable visit to the Stratton Brook Hut.  The crew was friendly and helpful.  I write an outdoor column for four Maine newspapers and expect an article will be published about our trip in about 2 weeks:  https://www.bangordailynews.com/author/ronchase/.  We had an excellent time.  I also skied to Poplar […]

Our last winter visit to ME Huts and Trails was in 2012 and we wondered what had changed since then. Happily, not much! The staff was very responsive and capable, the food was terrific and the common areas were well-maintained. The friends we brought along were also pleased with the introduction to ME Huts and […]

Maine Huts provides the perfect weekend getaway.  Four days of skiing, snowshoeing, and puzzles by the wood stove with a gaggles of friends. Where else in the wilderness can you go where you are provided with three wonderful meals a day and the night sky provides the best show around?!   Special thanks to the crew […]

Great fun! The trails were well groomed and beautiful. The food and service were friendly and delicious. The huts were clean and we will be back. -Leigh

We had a magical time at Flagstaff with absolutely perfect trail conditions and beautiful weather. The hosts were so welcoming and helpful, and the meals were fabulous- love the quiche, lentil soup and delicious lentil rice casserole! Thank you for an unforgettable weekend. We can’t wait to go back! -Eliza

This was our second year back at Flagstaff and we had the most incredible time, albeit short, despite an injury and unfortunately shortened stay. The huts are perfectly cozy and welcoming and the trails were fab with some fresh snow the day we arrived. We're already planning our trip back for 2025 🙂 The ladies […]

What an amazing event! North Spore Mushrooms came together with Maine Huts & Trails to bring us a spectacular three day, two night event. We started on Friday with a leisurely and highly informative foraging hike up to Stratton Brook Hut. Everyone selected bunks, grabbed hot showers, and sat down for a family style dinner. […]

"We had a phenomenal time at Flagstaff and are truly grateful for the experience. What a special place. It was the perfect combination of having a home base in a wilderness setting. The weather was definitely a mix but in many ways, this added to being able to snuggle into the lodge and enjoys those […]

I didn't know what to expect of the experience given that this was my first time "backpacking".  It was a 3-mile snowshoe hike into Stratton Brook Hut during a snowstorm, but my good friend and I hiked in with relative ease.  We were immediately impressed by the sheer beauty of the accommodations and lodge and […]

This was my second hut with friends. This year we have the chance to use the commercial kitchens to cook a wonderful meal. The weather was perfect (snow all night and sun during the day). The volunteer caretakers were lovely and helpful. The hut/lodge is gorgeous with all the amenities. We loved it. Thank you […]

Met up with some friends from Georgia – we have stayed at MHT before (family brought my then 80 year old Mom in for a stay, winter snowshoe trip) so knew more or less what to expect – but expectations exceeded – what a great introduction to Maine, and the Maine woods! Accommodations, staff, food […]
