I visited the sanctuary this morning for an event. The hostess Dora, was warm, and inviting. She served a beautiful breakfast with healthy choices as well as decadent treats. The guest rooms - adorable and the grounds were beautiful.

This was an awesome event space. Beautiful 3 bedroom, tucked away in a quiet, nature filled area. The food was EXCELLENT. I attended a network meeting here and it was just a wonderful experience.

I was so happy to have found The Sanctuary on Huron River. Ive stayed at several B&Bs, but none compare to this one. Dora and Ed, the owners, are the sweetest couple. They welcomed us with a delicious charcuterie board upon our arrival and sat and talked with us, which was very entertaining. Dora has an amazing history and held my attention every time we spoke.
I visited in January 2024, which limited my being able to enjoy the river or the activities they offer on their grounds, but my visit was so enjoyable.
Breakfast was like eating at a restaurant. Dora is a well trained cook and served my husband and me a 5 course meal. I was full for pretty much the whole day. She is accommodating to serve breakfast whenever it suits you. She uses only the freshest fruit, even in winter, along with mock mimosas and fresh squeezed orange juice, Salmon, shrimp, vegetables, pancakes, bacon plus more with everything served in such an appealing presentation.
The beds are very comfortable, the bathroom is shared with any others that may be staying there, but that was never a problem while we were there.
The main living room was open to us at anytime.
The Sanctuary on Huron River is not your typical B&B, while Dora and Ed sleep in their finished basement, you are still offered the privacy of a typical Bed & Breakfast. However, any amount of time you can spend with Dora is a pleasure.
I cant say enough about this special place along the Huron River. Bird watching from the expansive windows in the dining room, the cleanliness of the business, the proximity to so many venues and all that is offered in the downriver area. Your first visit here will make you want to schedule your next trip, just so youre sure to get a room.
Every visit we make to Michigan will find us staying at The Sanctuary on Huron River.
Thank you Dora and Ed for your amazing hospitality, your love of God and the friendship I feel weve created after only one stay.
Cheers to our next vacation with you.
Rooms: All the rooms are cheery, clean and comfortable.
Nearby activities: The downriver area offers amazing restaurants, botanical park, street fairs, Belle Isle Aquarium, golf, plays and many family activities.
Walkability: There are many parks where one can walk. The Sanctuary on Huron River is on 5 acres that is open to those who stay. There are not sidewalks at this end of Huron River Drive, but you dont have to walk to far to reach a sidewalk and not too far from Huroc Park, where you can play, fish and picnic.
