Welcome to The Sanctuary on Washington! Our home is minutes from Mohegan Sun, Foxwoods, Great Wolf Lodge, wineries, and other CT shoreline attractions.
With room for 11, our home features 5 bedrooms and has ample space to relax, enjoy some quality time and most importantly, create memories.
There are 2 large living rooms, indoor and outdoor dining areas, a large kitchen with double ovens and a backyard fully equipped with a gas grill and backyard games for extra fun.
Whether you're planning a girls weekend, birthday celebration, or a getaway near Mohegan Sun, this home gives your group space to be together without feeling crowded, inside and out.
Inside, you’ll find multiple living areas to gather and relax, a large dining table for shared meals, and thoughtfully designed rooms that feel different from anywhere else.
Outside, enjoy a spacious backyard with seating, a grill, and games like badminton and ladder ball, perfect for slow mornings or relaxed evenings together.
It’s a home that feels fun, memorable, and easy to settle into.

This property was ideal for our getaway. We were celebrating my grandson' 21st Halloween birthday . We had a blast. Thank you. The cat was an extra added surprise and he seemed to love all the attention he got. We will be back.

It felt like we stayed at a friends mansion. As a world traveler, I must say, this is one of the best places weve ever stayed at. Host provides everything needed, and place was spotless when we arrived. Cant wait to return!

The house is absolutely stunning & I love the color-drenched rooms. The town of Norwich itself was less than impressive, but we were staying just to visit Mystic nearby. I would definitely stay here again.
