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.
