The beautiful mountain village of Bethel, nestled in the Maine mountains, is truly a sight to behold.

The Bethel Hill Common is a scenic part of town with many historic buildings giving you a glimpse into the early life of the town. Walk the Sunday River Covered Bridge, built in 1872 and said to be the most photographed and painted bridge in the country. Climb Goose Eye Mountain, the second highest mountain in the Adirondac chain. The Sundat River Ski Resort is a very popular attraction during the winter and the golf course is the place to be as soon as the snow disappears.
Whether your taste buds run from ordinary food, fine dining, or world cuisine you will find it in Bethel. Drop into the L'Auberge Bistro for American, British or French dining or stick to the tried and true at Mother's restaurant.
