Review of Stratton Mt. Resort

We were staying with a group of friends in cabins ...

We were staying with a group of friends in cabins nearby so we came to Stratton Mountain with our 5 goldens to ride the gondola and hike to the fire tower. There was a chili cook off, brewfest and live music going on which made the place a lot busier than I imagine it would be on a regular weekend in October but we had literally no wait to get on the gondola. I paid $20 for the 7 of us + pups to ride in 2 gondolas which was an awesome deal. Our golden was mesmerized watching the ground below him and being able to see for miles & miles and we came on the perfect weekend, the foliage was glorious. We hiked the fire Tower trail but unfortunately the line to go up was very long so we opted to head back to check out all the activities going on back at the lodge. Oddly enough this weekend there's snow at the top of the mountain so it's a good thing we came last Saturday. Looking forward to visiting again, I could literally ride that gondola all day.
