Guest rating: 5.0 / 5

Overview

The Sanctuary is a custom-built, smoke-free 1-bedroom apartment in a quiet country setting on a 4-acre property in Enterprise, Alabama. Although it shares the property with the main house, the apartment sits at the far corner of the lot and was designed and built specifically as a guest unit. Guests access the apartment via a four-digit door code and can arrive after hours for self check-in.

Apartment Features

This 1 BR setup is geared for longer stays with in-unit laundry (washer) and a full kitchen with oven/stove, microwave, and essential cookware and dishware. Comfort touches called out by the host include a large bedroom and a Nectar memory foam mattress, plus heating and air conditioning. Cable TV, free Wi‑Fi, an ironing board, and free parking round out the practical in-apartment amenities.

Outdoor Space & Equipment

A covered deck and a lower patio create outdoor hangout space, with a gas grill ready for guest use. Smoking is permitted outside only (including the covered deck and the fire pit/grilling area), with no smoking or vaping inside. A cargo lift is available for moving luggage and other inanimate items to and from the second-floor deck, and the property also offers a Level 2 (40A) EV charger.

Cleanliness & House Rules Notes

The host emphasizes thorough cleaning and disinfection between stays, including washing all bedding, towels, and bathroom floor mats with hypoallergenic detergent. The mini-split AC/heat air handlers are described as having plasma air purification systems. For smoke and noise compliance, the apartment uses a Minut smart environmental monitor that tracks indoor air quality, decibel levels, and occupancy (privacy-safe with no cameras and no audio recording).

Location & Nearby Dining

The Sanctuary is positioned for easy access to local shopping and dining while maintaining a quieter, country feel. Nearby options include The Outpost Casual Dine In / Take Out (about 4.6 km), Alabama Pecan Co. (about 5.2 km), The FryWay (about 5.2 km), Pastela Italian Restaurant | Grill & Bar (about 5.3 km), and The Social on Main Tapas Bar (about 5.2 km). Dothan Regional Airport is roughly 43.2 km away.

Best for

This apartment is best for travelers who want a quiet, private-feeling stay with the conveniences of a full kitchen and in-unit laundry. It also suits road-trippers and EV drivers thanks to free parking and an on-site Level 2 (40A) charger. Couples or solo guests looking for a comfortable bed and a simple, easy self check-in process are a particularly strong fit.

Travel tips

Plan on driving: Dothan Regional Airport is about 43 km away, and the property’s country setting makes a car the easiest way to get around. If you’re arriving late, self check-in is supported via a four-digit door code provided before arrival. Use the cargo lift only for inanimate luggage and items, and follow the no-smoking-inside rule (smoking is allowed outdoors in designated areas).

What guests say

Guest feedback consistently highlights cleanliness and a well-kept unit. Reviewers also mention a quiet, peaceful location and an easy arrival/exit experience. Comfort is another recurring theme, especially around the bed. Minor maintenance issues have been noted (such as a couple of burned-out lights), but they did not appear to impact overall satisfaction.
