My daughter, Aria, was stoked and maybe a little nervous about her first-timer snowboard lesson at Stratton. Her nervousness was squelched quickly upon checking in at Stratton’s Welcome Center. If you’ve never been to Stratton (or are new to any mountain), the welcome center is a great place to start your journey. With help from the welcome center staff, we were able to get the lay of the land, pick up a trail map, and check in for our One-Nighter package stay. From there we were directed to the rental shop to pick up our gear for the next couple of days on the mountain.
The rental process at Stratton is easy and efficient. Helmets, boots, bindings, boards, and beyond are all fitted to you personally, and the knowledgeable staff supported us at every turn. If you’re new to snow sports, the staff makes recommendations on the myriad of sizes, lengths, and feel of a board. This helps to match your little one with the best possible board to ensure their success and keep them wanting more.
