Perfect location and setting
Who would’ve guessed you could have a stay in a wooded area in metro Detroit where we saw a deer, an owl, and turkeys in our yard.

A Slice of Heaven
Where do I start? Everything about this spot and the hosts was amazing. It really is a sanctuary. We loved every minute hanging out in the backyard (understatement calling it a bkyrd), watching the birds and all the animals. Felt like we were in a Disney production. The house had everything! It was incredibly charming, with tons of curated books and art. It's nostalgic in the best of ways. You will not regret staying at this slice of heaven. We can't wait to be back

5 stars!!
Everything about our stay was perfect. It's listed as the sanctuary and thats exactly what it is, a hidden gem that makes you feel far from the city. I also can't say enough about the Richard and Jeanne, they really know how to make you feel welcome. Thanks for the great stay! We'll be back!

Great hosts, lovely property
We stayed for 2 weeks in the peaceful surroundings at the Sanctuary Inn. The house is well equipped with everything we needed for cooking, laundry, entertainment and comfort. This was our 3 time staying at the property and we will be back again.

cool mid-century modern ranch in quiet natural setting
We stayed in this pleasant home surrounded by trees and nature. Our hosts were great: friendly and very accommodating, wonderful people. This was our third time staying with them. It's like staying in someone's cool home while they're out. It's not too fussy but comfortable for a family. There's a big dining room table which is great for playing games or making a puzzle. It's nice in the summer, too, and you can enjoy the backyard more then. We saw turkeys, deer, and squirrels. It's cozy during the winder and you can pull up a chair at the gas fireplace to enjoy its warmth. We enjoyed our stay and it's a nice quiet neighborhood. A good find!

Christmas in Southfield
We rented the Sanctuary to have a welcoming place to be able to spend Christmas with family in Detroit. It was perfect. The hosts loaned us some Christmas decorations and we put up a Christmas tree. The flock of wild turkeys was a bonus. We will stay there again when visiting family in Detroit.

A lovely home away from home
This property is ideally located to many sites and activities in the Detroit area. The deer greet you upon arrival and throughout the day and night! Jeanne and Richard were very responsive and provided and extra key seeing we were two couple on different schedules, as well as instructions on how the hot water value works side to side (who knew!) A very pleasant stay.
