The Appleton Retreat - Newly constructed 3 Bedroom barn....house Mid-Coast Maine

Peter & Toby, who manage The Appleton Retreat, have over 2,100 five-star reviews on another travel platform,,,,,
The Red Barn may appear to be a renovated barn but it is actually a totally new contemporary structure that is based on the design style of a monitor barn - which aimed to maximize space and improve the living conditions for animals housed inside the barn, or in this case people. The architecture incorporates a raised center aisle with clerestory windows, allowing for excellent air circulation and natural light. Located at The Appleton Retreat the Red Barn has a spectacular view of Appleton Ridge.

There are 3 bedrooms: Two on the 1st floor and one on the ground floor.

The Master bedroom suite on the 1st floor features a King size bed, AC, black out blinds & TV. There are two large closets. The Bathroom has a bathtub, shower and toilet with bidet.
Please note: When a Guest booking is for two people it is assumed they are a couple and require one bedroom - the Master bedroom suite is booked - the other two bedrooms are locked. Guests must state 3 guests to have the Guest bedroom available which will incur an additional charge. (If the 3rd bedroom is required please contact the host.)

The third bedroom on the ground floor features a Queen size bed. A full bathroom is just down the hall.
All the floors incorporate radiant heating.

The large deck on the 1st floor looks out at the Appleton Ridge and is a great place to grill. Enjoy viewing the starry nights in the 4-person hot tub ....... maybe with a fire in the firepit.
