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. But be quiet and see Deer and Turkeys.

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

Amazing
This was a perfect getaway for myself, my sister, and grandchildren. There is plenty to do and see on the property outside in this perfect slice of nature. The home is set in a beautiful wooded setting with a nearby creek. Very peaceful. For rainy days, the house is very comfortable with plenty of space to gather together or have your own privacy. The kitchen is very well stocked and has all needed appliances. The owners communicated well and were a pleasure to talk to. You cannot go wrong with this rental if looking for peace and quiet and relaxation!

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.

As Expected
Lots of supplies. Nice to have everything needed in kitchen and bathrooms. No need to bring/purchase the normal paper products and toiletries. Kitchen very well stocked with everything needed to prepare meals as well us plenty of dished for eating and serving. All kinds of spices were also available. However, do not park close to house!! My car was damaged by a falling branch and now the door will not open. It was not windy or stormy, just woke up and there was a branch on the car. Make sure you park vehicle away from any trees!

Family time
We had a fabulous time staying at the Sanctuary! The house was perfect for adult siblings catching up with each other. Plenty of private space and plenty of space to spend time together! The house was clean, the beds were comfortable and was well stocked for cooking meals. It was very easy to communicate with the owners. This was our 3rd visit and we are already talking about our next trip.

Very good
The scenery was very nice, having a forest just up the road made it so easy to go on hikes. The overall stay was perfect to be in the middle of nowhere and reconnect with nature. The only complaint I have is there is a limited use of Wi-Fi that isn’t said in the listing. Other then that it was perfect.
