Cozy Retreat w/ Fireplace, EV Charger, King Bed

Escape the chaos of the city and retreat to the charming town of Bethel, Maine. Look no further than our beautifully furnished 1 bed/1 bath home, which offers both privacy and serenity as it is one half of a duplex. With its modern design and tranquil atmosphere, our unit is the perfect place to unwind after a hectic week at work or an action-packed day on the slopes. Just 8 minutes away from Sunday River, our unit provides easy access to adventure and relaxation.
The space
We have puta lot of love and effort in this space to make you feel connected to nature and have an amazing time for whatever the reason. You'll have access to a bedroom with a KING bed and comfy sheets along with a dedicated workspace which consists of a desk, lamp and easy access plugs for your electronic devices.

The main living space consists of a couch that can be converted into a QUEEN size bed at night with all the sheets hidden in the chaise area along with a fireplace and 65 Smart TV (which has access to Netflix and NO cable). This space also has a dining table to easily accomodate our 4 guests. **NEW** Blinds have been added to the lower living room windows for better privacy at night.

Moving on to the kitchen we've tried to design it to feel open while also containing all of the necessities for cooking a nice meal. As frequent travelers who love to cook the local cuisine when staying at Airbnb, we've tried to include just about everything you should need to make a nice meal. There are a few cookbook supplied on Maine and Foraging based cooking along with a fondue pot for you to enjoy with your friends and family.

The bathroom is one of my favorite parts! There is a double vanity with two large mirrors for you and someone else to get ready very comfortably. There is a separate door from the shower/toilet and the vanity area which means you can get ready while someone else uses the shower/toilet. The shower is 30x30 with a nice rainfall style shower head which makes showering even more enjoyable.

We've also provided some board games and cards to help you spend some quality time with your family and friends during your trip in addition to 2 yoga mats that can provide you an opportunity to soak up all the sunlight that pours into the room and take some time to relax.

Now some things we absolutely love (and think you will too) about this home's location:
- Approximately just one minute by car to Bethel Village means quick and easy access to all of the best restaurants, a small grocery store, and the farmers market on Saturdays from 9AM-1PM whenever you need to pick something up or grab a bite to eat. You can easily walk to all of these things as well in just 5-10 minutes.
- We are located DIRECTLY on the the Bethel SNOWMOBILE trail with AMPLE parking for your snowmobile trailer which means conveniently hoping on the trails for the day and then coming back to relax and enjoy the night.
- If you didn't think location could get any better, we are just 8 minutes to SUNDAY RIVER and 10 minutes to MOUNT ABRAM. Rumor has it you may even be able to flag down the local Mountain Explorer which is a free shuttle from Bethel Village to Sunday River to take you to the mountain and back (we haven't tried this ourselves, but if you're up for testing it you are more than welcome to!)
- Some nights if you go in the backyard during the winter you can see Mount Abram from it's lights which is a really exciting thing to see when you are located in the heart of the city.
- We are located directly off of Route 2 which means you'll be the first the get to Sunday River on a POW day since it's usually one of the first roads to get plowed. This also means that you can get to a lot of your desired destinations faster without having to maneuver some of the winding mountain roads to get to a highway. PLEASE NOTE: this also means there is a potential for traffic noise, although minimal, and you should be aware your not staying in some countryside ultra quiet place. :)
- We are also located directly across from Dollar General (one of the places open latest in town) means taking no less than 30 seconds to run out and grab something at the last minute. CVS is located directly next door as well which makes quick and easy access in about a minute without having to get in the car.
- We are also about 18 minutes to Grafton Notch State Park and 30 minutes to the White Mountain National forest if you are looking to visit those destinations.
Guest access
You'll have access to one half of a duplex. The duplex is L shaped so there is only one wall that is shared between the two houses and that is heavily insulated to help limit any noise disturbances. You have complete access to the back house which consists of an open living room/kitchen/dining room along with a bathroom and a bedroom.

Outside, we have a firepit that accommodates up to 8 guests, but please note it is first come first serve and we have two units on property which means it could be unavailable to use during your stay, or you may need to enjoy the fireplace with other guests.
Other things to note
Other things you may want to know are listed below:
- There is stairs up to the front door of the unit (approximately two steps) along with a step into the bathroom and small 4 step staircase into the bedroom.
- We are located directly off of Route 2. While this makes it incredibly convenient to get to all the major attractions nearby (i.e. being located off the first road to get cleared on POW days to Sunday River is an incredibly beneficial thing!), it also also means there is some potential for traffic noise. The house is located towards the back so the road noise during the day is daily muted and at night it's virtually unnoticeable (especially considering there is minimal traffic at night) but this is something we just want to mention.
-There is a train that passes through town that you may occasionally hear toot it's horn at night.
- We are located adjacent to a local gas station though there is a house separating us, but this is just something we'd like you to know prior to booking.
- In the winter we can not guarantee with 100% certainty that the driveway will be plowed first thing in the morning or after a storm. We will leave a snow shovel out for you to use in case you need to get out earlier than our plower can get in. If you know a major snowstorm is coming we'd also appreciate if you moved your car off to the side the night before so our plower can plow and also avoid plowing you in.
- There is no washer/dryer in the home, but the nearest laundromat is just a minute away which should make doing any wash relatively painless during your stay.
