Testimonials

Guests of Notitia Sanctuary often tell us that their time in the space was both deeply restful and powerfully transformative.

“The first time I walked into Notitia, I had the immediate sense of entering my own home. I have carried the memory and emotion of this space with me ever since. It is one thing to have the vision for this house. It is quite another to breathe life into it as you have. I have relished the opportunity to study her charms (I am assuming she is a she) at leisure. You built Notitia with guests in mind, but the main room feels like a warm hug (must be those magic dimensions). And she is nestled into the most beautiful setting imaginable. Peaceful and restorative yes, but I will also remember it as the place where I wrote a talk that was 25 years in the making. It was a thrill to write and exhilarating (if not cathartic) to deliver. The reception has exceeded my greatest hopes. Borne on the wings of a dream / You wove a nest of stillness / In which to hatch new dreams. Sending you warm and copious thanks.” — Kendall

“We are driving away from Shelburne so full of gratitude and wonder at what you’ve created with Notitia. It is truly drenched with creative spirit. Our two weeks were magical in many respects. The trees had just begun to blaze with color as we arrived and were nearly without leaves as we left. We both spread our papers out wide and had fruitful days of thinking and writing. It was bliss.” — Krista

“Words fall short of the sense of wonder I experienced in your home. Thank you for the investment of intention into every piece in this place. I feel like I've had a month's work of rest in only a few days. Thank you, thank you.” — Joey

“We are so grateful to have found Notitia for our son's wedding weekend. Your home is both beautiful and tranquil and kept us grounded throughout our stay. We will never forget our memories made here.” — Pam

“We will remember this time here, in this serenity, forever. With loved ones and the sweetness of every sight, every new experience. Such a special place to meet one another and rediscover ourselves.” — Matt

“Your house has an amazing and positive energy. It drew me in the moment I entered. Thank you for the gift of your home to gather with the important women in my life.” — Lori

“Notitia is a special place, beautifully conceived and full of care. We can't wait to return.” — Brendan

“Notitia, the way you embody the morning light is unlike any other space in this world. Eternal thanks for your calm, your abundance, your joy, and your wildflowers. Until next time.” — Ssong
