This was our second time staying here and it was just as perfect as we remembered! The peaceful environment makes it the ideal getaway for rest and relaxation. The hosts are incredibly communicative and made sure everything was smooth from check-in to check-out. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained—truly a home away from home. We’re already looking forward to planning our next trip!
This was my fourth year in a row spending a long weekend at Sanctuary Shores. Absolutely love this place! The house is very clean and comfortable— the owners think of everything for their human & canine guests! — and the setting on the water is nothing short of absolute heaven. We love that it’s at the end of the dead-end road, so there’s no traffic. And being able to sit down by the water in solitude is definitely my favorite part! The perfect place for a quiet, relaxing vacation with no worries.
Beautiful home and area to stay at. Very tranquil and relaxing. The listing was 100% correct. The owners are very easy to get a hold of for any questions.
This place was a perfect getaway! So much room for the pups to chase a ball or wade in the water. Gorgeous space to spend time outside and in. Stunning view of the stars and sunrise. Can’t say enough good things about this.
This was one of the most awesome vacations we have ever had! The hosts were fabulous and everything we could have needed was there! The property is beautiful and so peaceful. We are hoping to go back again soon! Thank you so much!!!!!!
Our group of 10 humans and 2 dogs absolutely loved our time at the cabin! The water made for an incredible view (and the most gorgeous sunrise I've ever seen), and the house was roomy, clean, and so very well stocked. We loved getting to play in the huge yard or in the game room indoors. Tori was so knowledgable about the area and the wildlife and anything we wanted to know. Our trip was beautiful and perfect. Thank you for an amazing week!
This was our third time visiting and as always, it was wonderful. The cabin comes fully stacked with all necessities, which made our stay very easy and stress free. Beautiful lakeside and remote location make it a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy the peace.
We just spent 5 days for Thanksgiving and it was the most relaxing and wonderful family bonding time that we couldve asked for.
The house was clean, fully stocked, beautiful and exactly what was advertised.
The cabin and lakefront views are amazing. Our dogs LOVED exploring the backyard. My husband and left our hectic lives behind and only left the Cabin to get supplies
It was heaven
Great property and location - loved the UTV trails and excellent area for some of the best food we've ever had! Michael & Tori were so awesome to work with - we will return again :)

We Love it here!
Third time staying here and we love it!! We appreciate all the touches you've made through the years to make this such a wonderful place to stay!!
This stay provided us with a nice break from the real world. Close enough to Escanaba for some interaction with other people, but secluded enough to feel like you’re the only people for miles. We had a lovely time.
This is a lovely home with beautiful views of Green Bay. There is a great patio to relax on and look at the water. Lots of space to sleep and spread out. That being said, there were a few things that were “off” that kept me from giving it a higher rating. 1) The place was clean and yet there were lots of cobwebs—in corners, in every windowsill, on the taxidermy deer, etc. 2) There is no beach. Yes, there is access to the water but the “beach” is mud you sink into up to your ankles so it wasn’t really an option to sit down by the water or swim. 3) Two bathrooms but only one shower—the downstairs bathroom only has a bathtub. So everyone is showering in one shower. 4) No A/C. Then there were some minor inconveniences that I’m not going to mention because I don’t know that they’ll reoccur but did influence my rating. The property is dog friendly (although you pay an extra fee for that), which is great and one of the main reasons we chose it. If you’re looking for a place to lay low with your family and dogs while enjoying looking at the water, this is a great place!
We had a wonderful time at the cabin. It had everything we needed and was a lovely location. Owners thought of everything. Definitely recommend staying there.
This was the third year we have stayed at Sanctuary Shores and as always it was wonderful. The weather was perfect and the sunrises and moonrises were beautiful. The sound of the waves has to be the most therapeutic sound on earth and is available 24/7 at Sanctuary Shores. We had a great time and definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to sit back and relax.

Great location. Quiet, private, spacious, well-stocked kitchen, games and outdoor/yard equipment. Lots of sleeping options for our family of 12. Access to lake easy. View of lake from house amazing.
The home was spacious and welcoming. We like the remote location and view of the lake, and seeing the fall colors was an added bonus. It was exactly what we were looking for and would definitely come back again.

About the host
Hosted by Michael & Tori
We were born and raised on the shores of Lake Michigan. We love the stunning sun rises in the morning and the mirror like calm of early morning and the sometimes gentle lapping of water and other times crashing surf in the afternoons and evenings. The beauty of watching a storm sweep across the incredible blue waters is an amazing sight to behold. The cracking fire on the beach while the sun sets and sharing stories with friends and family bring peace and serenity. Sharing favorite memories while sitting around the stone hearth fireplace in the great room warms the soul and the bones.
