Dragonwood Retreat for Family and Friends

This is the real deal in the woods of Maine. Come and be embraced by Nature and Maine hospitality as you relax and enjoy... pretty much everything.
Dragonwood is here for your family vacation, the one where you finally get everyone together to see what happens when there are no distractions and plenty of opportunities to play. We are also that place for reunions, theme parties, and wedding celebrations. All that and more happens here, surrounded by the beauty of the Maine Woods
The space
Our extensive waterfront on beautiful Manhanock Pond features two docks, a paddle boat, a swim raft, and a fleet of kayaks for lake exploration. Plus, if staying connected is a must, we provide high-speed Starlink internet.

Upon arrival, you might prefer to skip some chores, and we have you covered with free grocery pickup and optional fresh or frozen meals.

The Main House combines rustic elegance with modern amenities, including a cozy fireplace and three tastefully decorated ensuite bedrooms. Additionally, The Bunkhouse can accommodate up to 16 guests with a fully equipped kitchen, large dining table, living area, bathroom, and a second floor with a mix of bunk, trundle, and queen beds, plus a balcony with stunning views.
