Introduction
Sweet Retreat, A Bed & Breakfast Inn, located halfway between Alexandria and Glenwood just off beautiful Lake Mary, is situated on 14 acres of woods, farmland and wetlands. A relaxing getaway from the hustle and stress of everyday life, guests can relax with all that nature has to offer. Take a walk around the property, watch geese and falcons fly overhead, look for deer, pick apples, gaze up at the constellations in the sky, take in the beautiful colors of the fall leaves or simply sit back in a comfortable chair on our spacious front deck and enjoy a glass of Carlos Creek Wine as you watch the sunset.
A Victorian style Inn, built in 1912, Sweet Retreat features four simple, yet elegantly decorated rooms, each with a unique charm. Guests are free to enjoy the spacious library with a large collection of books and a working antique Victorola record player, a living room with satellite television and a spacious front deck.
Sweet Retreat is also a great location for scrapbooking retreats.
The Alexandria and Glenwood areas present guests with a wide-range of activities to enjoy from golf, water skiing, bicycling along the Central Lakes East Bike Trail, summer stock theater at Theatre L'Homme Dieu, concerts in the park, the Awake the Lakes and Vikingland Band Festivals, Alexandria Beetles Northwoods League baseball games, visits to Carlos Creek Winery, NASCAR auto racing and fishing in summer to ice fishing (including the Alexandria Ice Fishing Challenge), snowmobiling, downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, Minnesota Blizzard Junior A hockey, and snowboarding in winter to year-round shopping at the many antique stores.
