"Wonderful location, across the road from the mountain and the stream and an old barn. It literally feels like you are in the middle of nowhere. The bedrooms were well appointed, plenty of towels and sheets. There's also a washer and dryer in the kitchen. The hallway light was full of bugs and impossible for us to find the switch to turn it off. The front door is in serious need of repair. The property manager is woefully unskilled at her job."

The Black Bear Lodge at Stratton Mountain Resort

8/10 Good

"Was great quiet week stay for work. Only down side is breakfast wasnt served till after I left for work and I was put in the basement rooms. Hot tub was fantastic. Again was super quiet and nice I loved it."

The Palmer House Resort, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Check in was easy. Room was clean. Bed was comfortable. You can sit on the porch just beside your unit. You can sit on the patio sets with the propane fire pit. I needed to do some computer work and had to go out to the patio since there was not a table in the room. The wind made it difficult. The microwave had a special way to open it after cooking. A suggestion would be to place a note next to the microwave with instructions to hit stop button first, then push the open button in order to retrieve cooked item. It was pleasant to visit with others at the patio fire pit. Otherwise it was nice and relaxing. Breakfast was simple and nourishing, especially nice when someone else cooks. Insert smile here. We visited the little trails nearby and found a pond. There are games and sports equipment you can use, in the lobby. Overall it was a reasonable stay. "
