    *OPTIONAL ADD-ONS

    1. Each day, the hosts can provide you with an inspiring note and question that sets the table for you to maximize your thinking and expand your mind to possibilities. ($10 extra a day for notes and questions)

    2. Contemplate and Create with a Certified Coach on Site

    Your host at the Sanctuary is a certified Leadership & Life Purpose Coach and is ready to meet you if you desire. Providing a safe, non-judgmental environment, you can engage with Christine to help you think through and process a variety of issues including your calling, life goals, leadership, connecting or re-connecting with God or work issues while taking a brisk walk around the farm or just sitting in the gazebo looking at the ripples on the pond or the majesty of the mountains.

    This experience includes two nights lodging, two coaching sessions and contemplative questions so you leave with clarity or a plan to thrive in life. ($200 extra for a two night stay although many guests choose to have their second coaching session once they get back home and have a chance to do some "homework.").

    OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: It is important to note that the Sanctuary is a place to unwind and unplug. We hope it's an opportunity to slow down, enjoy nature, and dream big. For that reason, we do not have wifi. Guests are welcome to use their own mobile hot spot, or if an emergency or need arises, guests can contact us about using a temporary hot spot.

    The Sanctuary is also a working farm, so don't be alarmed if you hear the cows mooing or the sounds of a tractor or four wheeler.

Everything about Sanctuary Suite was perfect. Christine was a fabulous host and replied quickly to our questions. We like to check in, look around and then go out and do the tourist stuff. Once we checked in here though, we left briefly to visit the local grocery store to grab a few things so we could spend the evening sitting next to the fire pit. Thats where we sat all night taking in the sunset and glorious views. We only spent one evening here but will definitely be going back. It was so nice to get away from all of lifes hassels and just enjoy each others company.

Great Little Getaway

This was a quaint little getaway. It was a beautiful suite located on a 17 acre farm. You could go out back and look over a pond and sit and a gazebo and look over mountains. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to go off the grid with no wifi and just enjoy some peace and quiet or time with a partner.

I highly recommend a visit to the sanctuary. We originally booked for 1 week and loved it so much that we decided to extend our visit an additional week . The property is beautiful and the Mountain Views is amazing. My husband and I enjoyed using the fire pit near the pond and had an autumn picnic in the gazebo. The property is very walkable with many beautiful photo opportunities .The guest apartment is nicely decorated with a very comfortable bed . The bathroom has a bathtub and shower which I personally loved the bathtub ! We cooked most of our meals in the well stocked kitchen . The host ( Christine and Jason ) has put a lot of love and care in the property . Christine and Jason are a great ambassadors to the town of Bedford. They gave us suggestions of scenic attractions near by .In closing, if you are looking for a peaceful, beautiful place to stay , the sanctuary is the place ! 5 .

Lovely cottage in a panoramic location. Cottage is perfect for serene getaway in every way— comfy fyy it entire, lovely bed linens and everything squeaky clean. Hosts are welcoming but not intrusive. No doubt one will feel refreshed and restored after a visit. It’s the kind of place that says “stay longer”.

What a beautiful place to stay! The hosts were incredible and loved that every evening they had the fire-pit ready to go with logs available for our evening night cap under the stars. Waking up in the morning to a beautiful view of the mountains from the shower was spectacular. The suite was clean, welcoming and well maintained inside and out. Looking forward to returning to this mountain oasis.

Wedding Anniversary

We stayed the weekend to celebrate our 17th wedding anniversary and this place is truly a sanctuary! Jason and Christine are wonderful hosts. We felt welcomed and had everything we needed, including a personalized message on the blackboard. We can tell how much work, love, and care is put into the place. With the beautiful views, the stocked fire pit, the nearby ATV trails, the fresh morning coffee, the game closet, and most of all the quality time together, we had the most amazing time!
