Sunday River Announces Summer Lodging Packages

Newry, Maine (Summer 2011)—Located in the Western Mountains of Maine, Sunday River Resort combines a relaxing alpine setting with a natural playground filled with recreational opportunities fit for the easy or extreme adventurist alike. From the slow pace of 18 holes of award-winning golf and specialized spa treatments, to the fast-paced thrills of downhill mountain biking and zipline tours, Sunday River creates lodging packages with the best of summertime in mind. Of course for those just passing through the area or wanting to test the waters of a mountain lake, stream, or Grand Resort Hotel pool, Sunday River also offers daily lodging rates starting at $99.

Grand Hotel Bed & Breakfast, from $129
Available May 1 – October 31, 2011

Nestled on thousands of acres filled with stately pine trees and birch tree groves, Sunday River’s two Grand Resort Hotels, the Grand Summit and the Jordan Grand, provide natural bookends to the resort’s eight mountain peaks which boast 30 miles of mountain bike and hiking terrain. Based on one night’s stay at either Grand Resort Hotel plus breakfast, the Grand Hotel Bed & Breakfast lodging package provides guests with an opportunity to book a vacation for two people any time throughout the splendor of summer and well into the peak of fall foliage season.

Golf Getaway, from $119
Available May 1 – October 31, 2011

Located just minutes from the Sunday River Golf Club, the Golf Getaway package provides the luxury of staying at one of the resort’s two Grand Resort Hotels with easy access to the award-winning golf course. Ranked recently by Golfweek Magazine as the number one golf course in Maine, this is a must-stay must-play getaway for golfers of every level. The Golf Getaway lodging package includes one night’s lodging at either Grand Resort Hotel plus breakfast for two people.

Bike & Bed Getaway, from $49 per person (condominium) or $75 per person (either Grand Resort Hotel with breakfast included)
Available May 1 – October 31, 2011

Boasting some of the best lift-serviced downhill mountain bike terrain in New England, the Sunday River Mountain Bike Park offers bikers over 25 miles of beginner, intermediate, and advanced trail which go on to connect to additional cross country trail throughout the Sunday River Valley. Included in the Bike & Bed Getaway is one night of lodging at either a resort condominium or at one of the two Grand Resort Hotels, plus a lift ticket to access the scenic Chondola and bike transport lift and trail access. 

Seven-Night Stay, from $349 (condominium) or $599 (Grand Resort Hotel with breakfast included)
Available from May 1 – October 31, 2011

The perfect vacation for those looking to spend some serious time in the mountains, the Seven-Night Stay includes seven nights of lodging at one of the resort’s on-mountain condominiums or either Grand Resort Hotel. Take the time to choose from any number of adventures the area affords including fly fishing, rock hounding, alpine trekking, or mountain biking, or simply enjoy the slower pace of summer by way of a shopping trip or historic tour through the nearby quintessential New England village of Bethel, Maine. Either way, with seven nights’ stay, it’ll be hard to pack in all that there is to do at the resort and in the area.
