Ancient Oak Sanctuary Rural getaway, walking paths
Welcome to Ancient Oak Sanctuary!
Stay at this property to disconnect from the crazy world and reconnect with nature. You'll be enchanted by the gardens, koi ponds, fountains, walking trails, and more! Named after the enormous oak tree growing on the property, don't miss out on 20 acres of woods and land to explore.
INSIDE THE HOME
The home boasts a spacious main floor primary bedroom with a wood stove, a huge walk-in closet/dressing room, and sliders to a deck with a hot tub. The living room's vaulted ceiling and high windows let in natural light. There's a second bedroom on the main floor and a large loft bedroom upstairs. The full walkout basement is finished as well offering another living room area, a full bathroom, and a bunk room! There is a studio behind the house which has served as both an art studio (to a famous artist) and a recording studio. The studio building has a drum set and piano for your use.

Main Level Bedroom 2: 2 Twin beds

OUTDOOR SPACE
Woods, a stream, historic oaks, and meadows invite exploration. Wild blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries flourish here. Savor the summer wildflowers and brilliant fall colors. Home to many birds and all types of wildlife, this property is gorgeous year-round. Please enjoy the walking paths and forts that have been built by the family.

Family Vacation
Plenty of fun opportunities to explore, observe wildlife, and bird watch. The home is nicely designed and welcoming. We loved sitting on the porch and feeling the evening breeze. Nice clean and usable kitchen!!!On the downside, the rest of the house needs a good cleaning. The bottoms of the sliding doors need scrubbing and cleaning. I suggest the beds and other furniture be pulled away from the walls when the floors are cleaned.

Lovely Retreat
My husband and I enjoyed this retreat for an Autumn anniversary getaway. The home itself is wonderful, very clean and cozy. The standout feature really is the property. Wood trails, benches and swings, pretty ponds! It is spacious and the foliage is eclectic! I noticed some very fun forts that my kids would love to use in the yard.

Nice getaway from it all. Quiet area with beautiful trails. Great place for kids! The property had all kinds of neat things for kids to explore and indoors was well suited for both kids and adults. Very clean and comfortable.
