The Hut is beautifully made. A feat of engineering in terms of where it is built, providing an incredible view of the valley. Sadly this is where the positives for Zealand Falls Hut end. We arrived at sunset to be greeted by the seemingly relaxed Hut master 'Scott', there is no printed literature around the Hut to provide first time guests with the house rules so we relied on Scots' guidance, or rather lack there of, this is where the friction began. As we proceeded to explore our environment and make ourselves comfortable, i.e sit in front of the wood burner and use the kitchen and facilities, it became clear that Scott was highly fastidious and controlling of his little empire, to the point where we as a group no longer felt comfortable or welcome. It is a shame that this created a very strained and 'walking on eggshells' atmosphere as we felt that we had earned the right to be there after hiking for six hours (not to mention paid for the right to be there). Scott however was very interested in our food and managed to help himself to almost everything we ate. In summation a beautifully made and located hut but could definitely be run and managed better. Hopefully you get a different hut master. On a more practical note, there was no running water as it was the end of the winter season so water had been disconnected to presumably stop the pipes from freezing (this was not explained to us). I found it odd that if this was an existing system that there was no set method for brushing ones teeth, we were told to just spit over the railing by Scott (but there was a 10 minute long lecture on the correct way to wash a plate!). Anyway good luck, the sleeping areas are also freezing and not heated in any way.

If you're hiking Zealand Cliff make a stop at this place for delicious soup and baked goods for very generous prices!

Pretty awesome place. One of the best huts. Can be a bit pricey, but the experience is top notch. Care takers are an added bonus and always makes the experience that much better. A beautiful place and one of the best trails in new england!

Jesse was a great host /caretaker. Facilities are more than adequate and have everything you need after a hike. Only complaint would be the was no heating in the dorm rooms. So come prepared.
