I had wonderful retreat experiences at the sanctuary as well as a lovely time as a volunteer on conservation projects there. It is a unique and special place I always leave feeling more relaxed and happier than when I arrived. read more

Grass Lake Sanctuary - Health & Medical Near Me - Manchester, Michigan

A friend of my daughter recommended we visit Grass Lake Sanctuary. The land was special, they said, and we were sure to have a wonderful time there. Yes, it's a lovely piece of Michigan land. And yes, the people were friendly. However, when we asked questions of the "volunteers", the response we got was almost identical from each one; clone-like. It felt scripted. During a lengthy conversation with one volunteer, we discovered that the sanctuary was the vision of their "spiritual leader/teacher" and that the volunteers were all members of the spiritual group. We would never have driven all the way out to Manchester from the east side if we had known this property was run by a cult, albeit a nice one (or so it seemed). The grankids were restless and bored in a very short time. We could have had just as nice of a time at the State Park here. read more
