Great Place to Stay and Ski
I have stayed here a few times. A few notes that drove my rating:
- I love having hot/cold breakfast free on-site.
- We tried the on-site restaurant for dinner and it was good and reasonably priced. Nice to not have to walk to the Village (where some of the food is not so great and overpriced) on a cold night.
- The person who checked us in was a bit rude. I have never experienced that before at the Black Bear.
- The fireplace was not working - I am sure not their fault but I did miss that.
- The hot tub was not ready to use when we got back from skiing. They said they had cleaned it (which is great) but it had not warmed up yet (not great). I would think they could have timed that better since it was a very cold day and I am guessing many people who came in from outdoor activities were looking forward to using the hot tub. It was up to temp later that evening.
- The shuttle to Stratton and the shuttle drivers are great! It comes and goes all of the time and the drivers are so friendly.

Overall, it was a very nice stay. I did find the staff was a bit "short", not necessarily rude, but it was obvious that they just wanted to move us along. Otherwise, pretty nice.

Nice hotel and nice place, but needs some renovation (the carpets are very old) and needs a swimming pool. Also it would be great to have a coffee machine in room.

My husband would rate it a 1 because there was no coffee in the rooms and none available in lobby. Just with breakfast. I agree there should have been coffee somewhere.

Country vibe, near the mountains, walking trails.
Did not care for the outdated carpeting.
