Flagstaff Hut Bakery?

Caretaker Craig at Flagstaff Hut here to let you know that I’ve been baking up batches of healthy, hearty treats for hungry hikers and bikers. Available this week are Whole Wheat Maple Muffins with almonds and Dirty Blondes (Dirty Blondes are whole wheat blondies – how wholesome is that?!) And the Maple Muffins, made with real [...]

Canoes, Eternal Youth, and Other Things Found in a Snowbank

On February 25, 2013 By Flagstaff Hut
There was a strange wind blowing at Flagstaff Lake Hut. It could have been the anticipation of Valentines Day where even the snow fleas were a little giddy. Or it could have been the fresh new snow hiding any evidence of a January thaw that turned Flagstaff Lake to a Caribbean Sea. But no, the [...]

Stay hot when it’s cold!

On February 18, 2013 By Stratton Brook
Stay Warm
Ellen at Stratton Brook Hut here with some tips on how to keep warm when the temps are low! I like to re-imagine Katy Perry’s song ”Hot and Cold” as a song about winter hiking: “I’m hot when you’re cold, I’m out when you’re in, I ski while you sit, have fun in the winter.” Okay, so my [...]

Sausage and Kale Stew

On February 13, 2013 By Stratton Brook

This hearty soup was quite popular over MLK weekend and the recent chilly temps and snowstorm meant this soup was just the thing—warming and with a little bit of kick from the sausage (less if you use mild Italian sausage), it really fills you up. Plus, we like to think eating our greens in the [...]

Sometimes the mantra for hut cooking is “make it good and make it quick!” Of course, there are some dishes we spend much more time on, but it’s good to have a few fast-and-fantastic recipes up your sleeve. Since five guests (maybe more?) asked us for this recipe this weekend and we didn’t have time [...]

It is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth.” — Walt Whitman Ellen at Stratton Brook here, I’ve been putting together a pamphlet of nature readings to have on hand at the huts for school groups and other visitors. It’s pretty much the perfect activity for a chilly [...]

41 Boston Friends Ring in the New Year at Flagstaff Lake Hut

“It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men’s hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.” –  Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) Scottish Essayist, Poet and Author  – Early winter snow storms [...]

We had our first double birthday celebration at Stratton Brook! Twins Clementine and Finn celebrated their tenth birthday with a lemon pound cake. Our reservations staff sneakily told hut crew about this birthday, so crew and guests all got to enjoy the looks of surprise on Clementine and Finn’s faces. The next morning they had [...]

The winter cold has not stopped the visitors from coming! The Stratton Brook Crew was delighted to have our youngest-ever guest a few days ago. The Favreau family came in for the night and brought their three-month-old daughter, Sylvie. Sylvie, of course, worked very hard to get up the hill. I bet some of you [...]

Stratton Brook’s First Christmas!

Today, dear reader, I’m excited to share some pictures of our first overnight hut guests! This post is a bit belated because the holiday week was so busy. The first few weeks we were open has blended into one long day in my head and we were kept hopping all day long, so I barely [...]
