We loved our stay at the Sanctuary!! The location is great, close to town, the lake, and 30 minutes to the ski hill. The kitchen is well stocked and clean. The bedrooms were plentiful and comfy! Bathrooms were clean and well stocked with towels. There were tons of games and space to enjoy them in the large gathering area. Communication with the property manager was excellent. This was a perfect spot for a big family get together!

Ww loved how much room there was for the 40 of us. There were tables to play games, put puzzles together, quiet places to nap or several seating areas to have great conversation.

This place is amazing. It has lots of space for multiple families. It is very clean. The kitchen has everything you will need to prepare meals for lots of people. The downstairs area is perfect for kids to gather while the adults can gather upstairs. We had a great weekend. We will be back. There are lots of steps to multiple levels so in case there are mobility issues this won't work for you.

This was a great location for our friend group to do a reunion and work remotely for a couple weeks. The lake is a 15 minute walk or 3 minute drive, there are a couple coffee shops within walking distance, and the house itself is massive. It does still look like a church and has a lot of crosses and angels, so just be prepared for that. But it was very well set up for a large group -- 2 large fridges and a freezer in the kitchen, every kitchen item you could need. Lots of dining space and comfortable spaces to hang out and watch movies. This was truly a perfect space to relax and have fun. It was clean and comfortable. Only challenge was the internet -- it was very fast but seemed to have a firewall or something that resulted in it being choppy and kicking us off regularly. We mainly handled this by pairing with our phones, so might recommend bringing a MiFi if you're working remotely. The Village Coffee Shop nearby also had very reliable internet, so we went there fairly often as well.

The Sanctuary is a great spot for large gatherings!! Very clean, huge fully equipped kitchen and dining area. Plenty of space to hide away for a little alone/work time if needed. Property manager was on top of things and so helpful. Town is small and welcoming and an hour from the twin cities. Definitely recommend this property!

We had a family reunion here with 37 people. The space was awesome! Lots of spaces for all of us to gather together. The kitchen was amazing!! The manager was great and very accommodating! We would definitely consider staying here again.

Our large extended family had a lovely stay here. Fully stocked doesn't even come close to describing the kitchen. Very comfortable for a large group! Highly recommend!

The beds are comfortable. The place is clean. The kitchen is well-stocked and there is a lot of fridge and freezer space, among numerous other positives. Overall, we were pleased. One thing I would point out for those who might not read the captions of all the pictures is that the Bell Tower room is a walled-off room in the corner of the dining room. For my family's purposes, we did not to use the room as a bedroom and we didn't, but I think we would have been disappointed if we needed to use it as a bedroom.
