    The cabin was beautiful and the scenery was breathtaking. We appreciated the reminder to disconnect from our phones. We hadn't done puzzles in years and we had the best time doing them! The time there was exactly what we needed!

    Our weekend trip to the sanctuary provided a relaxing few days that was exactly what we needed this time of year. The humble home provides a beautiful view from the central living space, and is tucked away into such a peaceful opening of the forest. There were more than enough amenities and supplies within the home to keep us comfortable - my favorite was the record player and collection. I would highly recommend a stay here! And we look forward to eventually coming back!

    I had a wonderful time here. It is perfect for creatives who need to get out into nature and unplug. There is a real peace sitting on the deck with a notebook and having just the woods for company. Peaceful, well kept, and free of distractions!

    What an adorable space! Meticulously curated with a comfortable vibe, without being pretentious. Everything was thought of, from treats upon our arrival, to an EpiPen for medical emergencies. Absolutely would recommend this gem!!!

    10/10! The property looks just like the pictures! This place is beautiful and just as pictured and described. The check in process was easy, the host communicated very well and was available to assist with any questions I had. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots & pans, cutlery, cutting boards literally EVERYTHING you need to make a home cooked meal; you just bring the food. It was quiet and away from all worldly distraction. There were so many great books on the property, games, puzzles you really don’t have to leave for anything after you check in. We will be visiting again! I’m so grateful we found this place!

    We went out on a limb and found this gorgeous property to get married at. With honesty and great communication with our host they allowed us to have a few extra guest to perform our wedding ceremony. We didn’t need anything big or fancy but the sanctuary in it’s simplicity is beautiful and fancy! Words can not describe how intimate and beautiful this place is. Their hard work is something to be admired. If you are looking for the perfect getaway with your significant other or just a peaceful get away this is the place to book! I know we will be returning as much as we can. My wife immediately gravitated towards the record player because of her love of music and we danced in the middle by the big windows that over look the pond. The deck became a relaxing lounge to listen to the birds and take in the fresh air while sipping on a few drinks. As we winded down for the evening a bubble bath in the gorgeous reconditioned ironed tub hit the spot for my wife as I sat and bird watched from the deck. ( there’s a whip-poor-will that comes out in the evening that likes to sing right into the kitchen window ) with out a doubt this is the best place for peace. Thank you again and we will return soon!

    My Wife and I took a long weekend up to the sandstone sanctuary, we appreciated having no TV and enjoying the peaceful sounds of the woods surrounding us with the occasional Frank Sinatra song on the bluetooth record player. The house was super cozy and had everything you need for cooking and most importantly relaxing. Justine was super friendly and made sure we knew she was only a phone call away! Loved this place and wish we could give a million stars! Will be visiting again!

    the home was exactly as described. would recommend and come back anytime. you can choose to unplug or use WIFI which worked well. the bathroom was very nice with the heated floors and clawfoot tub. the bedroom was nice with comfy sheets and a very firm mattress (if this is your taste). we also enjoyed the walking trail which was well marked. the home is very private and peaceful to sit out on the deck. my only issue and this is my preference is there are no blinds or curtains in the bedroom. the owner assured me they never had issues however its just something i prefer when i am sleeping and feel more comfortable. we brought items from home to make it work it would have been nice to have the option :)

    This was our second stay of unplugged luxury at Sandstone Sanctuary. Having visited in the winter last time, we decided to see what warmer weather brings. Once again, we enjoyed streaming sunshine and beautiful views through the large glass windows and doors, while resting in the comfort of this retreat gem. The bed and clawfoot bathtub were luxurious - again! And, the kitchen was well-stocked and offered exactly what we needed to prepare fresh meals on the grill. We love our stays at Sandstone Sanctuary, and can't wait to visit again!

    My wife and I spent a few nights at the sanctuary after our wedding, everything was perfect. The property is second to none. It is modern while also being very peaceful. The owners keep the sanctuary at the highest state of cleanliness. Additionally, the owners are amazing! They were great with communication, helpful, and even mailed us an item we had forgotten. Overall an absolute 10 out of 10!!!
