Umiak Outdoor Outfitters

The MOST helpful staff ever. We rented snowshoes from them and they were so kind and informative, giving us maps of the surrounding area and recommending trails we would enjoy that matched our experience level. Thank you!

I loved this place for rentals. They were affordable and kind folks. We rented a tube for 25 dollars (first day) and a discount on the next day. We rented snow shoes and they provided us nice maps of places to snow shoe. Found the rentals cheaper than some of the resorts. Will rent again from them next time I'm in Stowe.

Staff was super friendly and helpful, the rental process was clear and easy to navigate, they were super flexible when we wanted to adjust our gear rental based on weather, and the gear was of great quality!

We took a moonlight snowshoe hike late in February. We were lucky and it was only my wife, myself, and our guide, Mel. The night was incredible educaitonal about Stowe and snowshoeing, and he was great guide. He also discussed the opportunities for skiing,hiking, and kayaking with great enthusiasm. Because there were just the two of us, we were able to experience more of the paths and the area. This allowed Mel to tailor the hike to our interests and help us when we had (minor) difficulties with the snowshoes themselves. (We had never done this before.) The time in the sugarhouse was relaxing, with warm cider and great Cabot cheese and mustards. (I thought their connections to other businesses in the are was fascinating.) The stars were clearer than I've seen in quite a while and we finished the evening feeling refreshed though we really take a long hike. Well worth it and a highlight of this visit to Stowe.
