I appreciate that this place is LGBTQ+ friendly. At the entrance, there's a pamphlet about allyship. A small calico cat holds a welcome sign. The decoration is so pretty and perfectly set up, that it took me a moment to realize it was the mainland—and this represents one of my very favorite goal of Nature Collective locations that aim to enhance the beauty of the mainland.

Storywood Sanctuary is an enchanting and inviting retreat. Tales seem to float on the wind within this sun-dappled forest haven. Sunlight streams through the forest canopy, creating the illusion of light and shadow. In the images below the butterflies resemble flowers in flight, so whimsical. My sister Kitten also joined me for a bit, which made the visit even more enjoyable. I felt like this place had some poetry woven in, where the book had fluttering butterflies, symbolizing caterpillars emerging from their dark chrysalis and into the dappled, dancing light.

In this image below, two hives are situated just above the field of delicate yellow flowers, linked to the What the Buzz Pollinator Pledge. In the distance, the pretty sky is set in pink and blue hues, which I think added to the beauty here.

It's worth visiting to unwind in a quaint library or enjoy a walk along a cobblestone path, soaking in the tranquility. Below, a sleepy bunny is napping on an open book, with a cozy library partially visible in the background.
