| Just returned from an amazing stay at this beautiful cottage! The place is fully equipped with everything you could need, making it feel like a home away from home. The owners are incredibly responsive and quick to assist with anything. The view of the bay is absolutely mesmerizing. Sanctuary Wood is perfect for relaxation, contemplation, or enjoying active time outdoors.
Highly recommend!

| Our family had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage. We arrived just after snow had blanketed the area and the views of the winter wonderland all around us were stunning! The cottage itself was very comfortable and had everything we needed for a restful and relaxing winter retreat. Our family enjoyed the wide selection of board games and puzzles (we discovered a couple of new games which we hope to add to our home collection). The coffee/tea/hot chocolate bar was a lovely treat and so was the welcome basket! Brian was very helpful and provided unparalleled customer service before, during and after our visit. Thank you Brian and Family for letting us stay and enjoy your beautiful cottage and we look forward to returning in the future.

| We had a beautiful stay at this sweet, stunning cottage. Arrived in the evening just in time to relax at the waterfront and watch the moon rise over the bay. Location is perfect launching point for hikers and the Bruce Trail did not disappoint. A perfect autumn weekend getaway and a true 'sanctuary' for two weary souls.

| Our second stay at Sanctuary Wood! We love this character-filled cottage, from the curved, high windows downstairs to the quirky, colourful stained-glass upstairs, it's a well-loved home, not just a rental. The kitchen is fully-equipped, the mattresses are super comfy and Lisa is a lovely, responsive host. This cottage is in a quiet, tree-filled neighbourhood with great swimming, kayaking, walking and an easy drive to all of the attractions of the Bruce. We will be back!
