Numerous Hiking Trails:

Quick Hikes within a mile of the home, we have Shoemaker Nature Preserve. Five miles from our home is Chalet Nivale, Shaded hollows, vertical cliffs, rare plants, carved out by two of Ohio's cleanest streams. Both are easier excellent hikes. Fort Hill is a hike through a mature forest to the top of the ridge where a 2000 yr old mystery of the Hopewell culture awaits. Hike more intense Buzzard's Roost, or check out the Arc of Appalachia's site for more challenging hikes. And for the easiest of all, and maybe the best...Enter the Forest at the bottom of our drive. It is flat for 1 mile, and you rarely see anyone, just deer and turkey.

Long's Retreat - fun for the whole family - swimming, canoe/kayak rentals, putt-putt, water slides, arcade room and much, much more!

Mineral Springs Lake - only 8 miles away. Swimming and lots of family fun!! We've personally seen their fresh water jellyfish - pretty awesome!

Just a house in the woods

This was just the right size to accommodate 7 adults. The house could use an update on the decor but it was clean, roomy, and a nice stay for the couple of days we needed.

Excellent stay!

We traveled as a group of 10 from ages 4- 60+. Property was clean and lovely. Everything was as listed. Owner was wonderful! Extremely prompt response time for our questions. Location was perfect. Lots of space outdoors for kiddos to explore. It rained the entire weekend, but we were quite comfortable inside and on the cozy porches .Would definitely recommend this property to anyone, especially families!

Nature oasis

This property is absolutely beautiful… secluded in nature and surrounded by powerful energy that allowed us to rest, rejuvenate, and have connected time with friends, cooking and sitting by the fire inside, and meditating, stargazing, and hiking outside. We will definitely come here again. (We were in town for a conference at the Serpent Mound, the distance of this property was in close proximity to our venue for the event.) Deb was kind and responsive, we appreciated her hospitality.

Perfect spot for a family getaway

This was our first family weekend away since Covid & it could not have been a better choice! The house had room for 3 different small family groups with bedrooms & bath on each level. Kitchen had everything one could need! The covered deck off the great room was a lovely spot to sit, even when it was raining. We enjoyed the seclusion & especially enjoyed the fire pit & cooking our supper over it. Our 3 year-old granddaughter kept saying, "I LOVE our new house!!" Thank you, Deb and Lee, for sharing your home with us & allowing our family to make new memories together!

Great Family Home

As long as you don't have kids likely to fall down steps, this place is ideal for a family getaway where you want to unplug and slow down. The internet speeds are very slow and you have to pay extra for excess internet use because it is far out in the country. This made my teens get their faces out of there phones a bit. It was so quiet out there and we took a nice long walk along the country lanes. We only saw a few cars and some horses, one cow, and a few dogs. The house itself needs some cosmetic work but mostly super comfy and well appointed. The jacuzzi tub will heat you to oblivion and soothe your worries away. I super love the vaulted ceiling dining room and the upstairs master bedroom loft. I may come back next Christmastime if I can get in. Thanks for everything. Ten out of Ten, would recommend!

A bit different this year

We really appreciate the newer fire place controls. One touch and its on! Problem is we couldn't really enjoy the fire and ambiance of the living area since there is now a huge table right in front of it. That was very disappointing! After a long day in the woods, its nice to relax with a couple of cocktails after dinner there. I'm hoping it can be removed for our next visit or at least take out the old table that was just pushed against the wall and move the bigger one over by the sliding door and bring back the living area furniture to enjoy the main floor. I know you must accommodate larger groups but that was very disappointing and those metal chairs are seriously uncomfortable. We really love this place and want to come back regularly. We wont be able to make it in 2019 but will be reserving a whole week in 2020.

My only complaint about this property is the furniture. Most if the furniture is uncomfortable and makes it hard to truly relax.

Beautiful property

Stayed while in town with our grown children while putting together my mother's memorial services. The house is very large, very private. Clean, well equipped and has many gathering spaces inside and out. It's a lovely property.The kitchen has everything you could possibly need to cook or bake.Wasn't super happy about the wifi notice but we managed and would highly recommended this air BB for any occasion. Beautiful property!

Fall beauty

Beautiful, peaceful and private. Overall we had a great time. We were a bit disappointed by the Wi-Fi rules as they were not specified in the listing and the extensive DVD collection turned out to be less than 20 and most were from the 60’s and 70’s. Other than that we had a great time. Lots of fires and s’mores and reconnecting with family.

Private and Secluded

This is a beautiful home and property. We enjoyed all of the options - two fire pits, and two porches. Everyone in our group was able to find a place to be comfortable. The house was clean and the owners where very responsive. The kitchen was very well stocked with larger pans, and enough plates and glasses for everyone. We enjoyed hiking in the state parks in this area and even went to the Pumpkin Festival in Circleville. It was a very relaxing, and quiet place to reconnect.

Poor cell service

When we arrived we had no cell service and were unable to check our phone for the codes to get on the property. After traveling to somewhere where we could get cell service(probably didn't need to go as far as we did, but it was dark and we weren't familiar with the area)we tried contacting the owners with no luck. We were however able to check the VRBO site and find where the owner's reply to my message from earlier in the day and were able to get in and enjoy our weekend. It would have helped if we were more prepared before arriving. After arriving the only complaint was the wifi restrictions and list of fines on the refrigerator that we would have liked to known beforehand. However we weren't planning on wrecking the place, so aside from the initial shock it had no effect on our stay. Nice place, but be prepared for poor cell service.

The Sanctuary

We appreciated our stay at The Sanctuary. The host was very on point with response times and providing "key" information. Easy check-in process. Host was very helpful with accommodation needs, providing good space for our family. Very nice kitchen, well-equipped and functional. Very clean with comfortable beds. Free Wi-Fi available, limitations on use, definitely a place to "unplug". Family certainly enjoyed their stay at The Sanctuary.
