Explore the Outdoors in Every Season
When you stay at Sweet Retreat, you don’t have to hit the road to explore. Open the front door and enjoy the many miles of trails we’ve created for your walking, mountain biking, cross country skiing, and snowshoeing pleasure.
Slow Down & Get Close to Nature
Relax on the porch and watch the sunrise over Spruce Mountain. View deer grazing in the back fields. Wander down to the pond to observe beavers at work, or grab your binoculars and look for American bitterns and blue herons.
Visit with our Show Oxen
Spend some time at the barn—visit with our 4 teams of show oxen, and if the timing is right watch them in training. Arrange for a ride in our custom-made ox cart, or in winter a sleigh ride through the woods pulled by our team of Durham-Herefords, Bright and Lion.
Learn How We Make Pure Vermont Gold® Maple Syrup
Sugaring season at Sweet Retreat occurs in early spring when the sap runs in our 200-acre hillside maple grove. Stop by our state-of-the-art sugarhouse to experience the sights, smells and sounds of sugaring as we boil the sap that flows from our sugar maples into Pure Vermont Gold®. Taste the warm syrup as it is drawn off the evaporator—a sweet Vermont experience that you will long remember. Syrup is available for purchase.
