Wine Down at the Sweet Retreat

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

You're going to love surrounding yourself with the beautiful trees of this amazing, updated home! Featuring a brand new private, huge seven-person saltwater hot tub, furnished patio, a gas grill, and an enclosed yard with a firepit. This two-story house is perfect for your next Maine vacation, no matter what time of year you visit.

Inside, the living room is dressed in burnished wood accents, comfortable furniture, and lots of natural light streaming in through broad windows at every turn. After a busy day of skiing, hiking or sightseeing, sit back and relax while you soak in our new hot spring spa surrounded by mother nature and gaze up at the beautiful stars above! When you're done enjoying a summertime hike or day at the lake, watch your favorite Netflix TV shows and movies while the private washer/dryer knocks out all that dirty laundry. The gourmet kitchen is full of stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and attractive cookware that will make family meals a joy to prepare in the oven with a built-in air fryer.

Winter guests will appreciate a location right on the snowmobile trail, and summer visitors will be near the lake for entertaining afternoons in the water. When it's time to wrap up an evening, you'll have three full bedrooms, two with queen beds, and the third with a twin bunk with a trundle and an additional twin bed. The loft has a king bed, TV, and a wood-burning stove - the ideal setting for a luxurious sleep or some privacy with a favorite novel. The home's high-speed internet and free WiFi make it quick and easy for remote workers and students to complete their projects on time. You'll even have AC units in every room, so it will be easy to keep cool on those hot summer days.

WHAT’S NEARBY
Explore the lake on a kayak or paddleboard or adventure on a motorboat and visit downtown Naples. You'll be less than two miles from the Long Lake Public Boat Ramp and four miles from Harrison Marina and many public beaches. You'll also be just two miles from Bridgton's quaint main street where you'll find shopping, restaurants, a movie theater, ice cream, a museum, a drive-in movie theater, and Shawnee Peak Ski Mountain Resort! The Loon Echo Land Trust is an excellent resource for hiking in the area, with well-maintained trails at Pondicherry Park, Mayberry Hill, Bald Pate, and Pleasant Mountain. Visit Gallery 302 to purchase gorgeous, locally made gifts, view the work of fifty artists on display, and take advantage of summer art classes and workshops.

Incredible Stay !!!!
This was our 2nd Stay at the Wine Down Retreat. We came back for all the right reasons. The house is spectacular, clean, spacious, all the things from home you need to stay....just bring food and everything else you need is there. From Smart TV and WiFi in every room, to the huge windows in every room...We just love downtown Bridgeton, from the tiny little breakfast cafes to the new pub/restaurant, and only 45 Minutes from North Conway. We stay in the loft room with the King Bed, Wood Stove, incredible view of the Long Lake. The hot tub was another reason to stay there, what a stay being in the hot tub during a storm that brought 3+ feet of snow. Also have to give a shout out to the incredible neighbors....we got stuck at the bottom of the hill in 3 feet of snow....complete strangers came out on 2 separate occasions to help dig us out and offer us dinner if we didnt make it downtown. We are already planning our 3rd trip to the Wine Down Retreat this Summer or Fall and will become the only place we will stay. BOOK IT !!!! you cant go wrong !!! 5 Star stay without question !!!

Fantastic!!
We came to this rental to host Thanksgiving for our family and we absolutely fell in love!!! The space was large but cozy, so beautifully decorated, had everything we needed, and the hot tub on a cold night was the best! We will be back for sure :)

Amazing stay, wish it was longer!
I had a great time on this property for a small getaway during the holiday weekend. The house was spacious and clean. The hot tub was especially wonderful, and was the best i ever stayed in. The heated pads were great for safety during this time of year. 10/10 will rent again!

Bridgton, ME stay - Part 2
Once again this house and stay checked all the boxes. This visit during winter we were able to partake in Pleasant Mountain 15 min away for skiing and Mount Abram about 40 ish min from the house. It was perfect. Not too cold, sunny, and wonderful. The new bonus since the stay the previous Fall ‘21 was the addition of a very nice hot tub lights and music connection included! That made for very relaxing evenings! This post Christmas and New Year’s trip to the house was wonderful. With its cleanliness, amenities (plenty of towels - a pet peeve of mine, a well stocked kitchen, sleds, snow tube for fun…), and warmth this home is the perfect stay any time of year! Highly recommend! Ps - there were 11 of us staying at any given point in the trip and it was perfectly fine and did not feel cramped.
