I hosted a women's wellness weekend here, and Lisa was very clear and accommodating. I've been here for few family gatherings in the fall and winter - The Barn and its surrounding property are spacious and beautiful, any time of year, with more sleeping space than most properties in the area. At this particular event, the women who joined me loved the barn and got to relax, enjoy the campfire, sit by the pond, cook together in the kitchen, hike at nearby Towner's Lake, and watch movies together--it was a blast! Highly recommend this spacious and cozy property.

It was as beautiful as advertised, tons of things to do and very well kept.

This was our THIRD stay at the Barn for our kids’ graduation s. It’s the perfect place for all your family and friends to stay. Lisa and Rich have done a great hob on upgrades since our first stay 3 years ago. It’s like a home away from home!!!

This is our second retreat at The Barn. The owners are accommodating and very nice. Easy to book and just enough communication with details. A nice welcome area with water and snacks on arrival. Kitchen is stocked with every appliance you need. Games, movies, multiple lounge areas, basketball/pickleball court. A cozy fire pit area with picnic tables nearby to eat or play games. Kayaks and paddleboat for the lake. The Barn has been perfect for us and our group of teen girls. The place is comfy and welcoming as soon as we walk in the door. Areas to eat, have Bible study and learn, activities, enjoy outdoors, movie time... If you are looking for a relaxing place, then I would not hesitate to book here.

My women’s fellowship group spent a retreat weekend here for the third year in a row. With 15 or more attendees, we need the space. We love the Barn’s layout, space, sleeping accommodations, and amenities. Owners Rich and Lisa are extremely responsive and communicative. The home is very clean, and each year, some upgrade has been made. A basement level bathroom is slated for this year, which will be a welcome addition. We’ve only been there in the winter but can easily imagine how wonderful the Barn would be for a family reunion or other gathering in warmer weather.

Once again, we had a wonderful experience at The Barn for our second annual staff retreat! Lisa and Rich’s place is perfect for our group… And they are so accommodating and caring! For a large group like ours, it makes for the perfect location for us to come together and laugh…share…. play games…cook…. And be together in a beautiful open floorplan! Thank you Lisa and Rich for all your attention to details during our stay at The Barn this year… And we look forward to returning again next year❤️

This was our third visit to The Barn. We celebrate all of our kids’ 30th birthdays here. We will be back in February for number four. We love that it is clean, accommodates so many people and we can bring our dogs. When we travel, we watch each others’ dogs, so bringing all of them makes it so special. Lisa and Rich are amazing and good, kind people.

Eleven sisters and we stayed for 3 nights. The house was clean, well stocked with plenty of beds for everyone. We had paddle boards and used the kayaks. Fun game room. Plenty of room to play cards. We made trips to Cuyahoga and did some hiking at Brandywine Falls and the Ledges. Also went to Nelson Kennedy Ledges, farther east, great hiking there also. I contacted Lisa several times and got a quick response. We are thinking we may go back.

Our group of 7 enjoyed our 5 night stay at the Barn. The scenery was beautiful. We spent most of our time outdoors at the pond- enjoying the view, kayaking, paddle boating & swimming. The fire pit area offered plenty of seating & view of the pond. We also utilized some of the indoor activities such as the pool table, air hockey & ping pong tables The Barn offered plenty of space for us to spread out & relax and to gather together for meals & games. My Uncle is wheelchair bound & he was able to access the main floor & downstairs recreation areas. The double doors made it easy to navigate his electric wheelchair. The main floor bedroom was spacious & handicap accessible. There was ample space between the floor and bed frame to easily accommodate my uncle’s portable electric hoyer lift. We would definitely stay here again & recommend the Barn to others that utilize lift devices for special needs. Our only suggestion for improvement would be to not have the lawn crew or the driveway workers show up so early. On our last morning of vacation, Both crews showed up bright & early…Making lots of noise. This prevented us from being able to enjoy our final morning outdoors. We suggest you schedule lawn & other work crews to come after check out time. Other than that - we had a wonderful time! & enjoyed the Barn & property! Kind regards, Karen & family

The Barn is an incredible place for families of all ages. We had a group of 20 people ranging from four years old to 90. The owners have put their heart and soul into making this into a comfortable and beautiful place to stay. It was quiet, and felt secluded and serene, even though located near a relatively busy road. The kids loved swimming and fishing, the older adults loved being able to be close by the lake with plenty of comfortable seating. The owners are great to work with. The only things we would have liked but weren't there were a juicer (which the owner is now getting) and an outside faucet. We can't recommend this place enough!

The perfect place to "get away". Beautiful property and accommodations. Entertaining is a breeze in the Barn!! Lots of room to spread out, share laughs, and have fun with family and friends.

Our women's fellowship group had our second retreat in The Barn; we made the reservation last year immediately after staying there. We have already booked for next year. The Barn is spacious, well equipped, with room to spread out or to gather. There are plenty of comfortable beds with extra blankets, pillows, linens, etc. The accommodations hold a group well. The Barn was very clean and well decorated, and Rich and Lisa are very responsive if needed. There was a family group staying in in the nearby home, "The Retreat," but we had plenty of parking and room. We didn't bother each other. We highly recommend The Barn for a gathering such as ours or a family reunion. Combined, the two properties would be perfect for a larger reunion or friends' gathering. The early spring weather didn't allow for spending much time outdoors, but it would be wonderful in the summer. All in all, our group loves "The Barn." We ate one dinner at Welshfield Inn and highly recommend that, too.

We stayed at the Barn for our annual fall family get away. The renovated and recently updated Barn both met and exceeded all of our expectations. We had many activities available to us without ever having to leave the property. The kitchen is very nicely stocked with every appliance you may possibly need. The Barn offers many options for all to sleep very comfortably. The owners are very accommodating and responsive. This is a beautiful property and we look forward to returning for many more family gatherings.

We do an annual cabin getaway with friends each year. This property is hands down the nicest, cleanest, overall best cabin we’ve been to. The hosts were so thoughtful with the amenities and were great to work with. Would highly recommend this cabin to anyone and we look forward to staying again in the future.

We needed a place to stay while they were refinishing our floors. We had a challenge for us because my husband is in a wheelchair and we have 2 dogs. There were very few places that could accommodate both. Fortunately my daughter discovered "the Barn" in her search. The Barn was the perfect place and very peaceful and beautiful. It was very clean and the kitchen was so well equipped with anything you may want. The doorways were perfect for a wheel chair and the bed just the right height. The grounds are gorgeous and our dogs enjoyed that. We also were able to arrive a little earlier which we really appreciated. Thanks for a great getaway.

The Barn at evergreen pond provided the perfect setting for our family reunion. The outdoor setting is lovely, inviting and impeccably maintained without being fussy. There is ample parking space. There is plenty of room for 2 or 3 people to branch out and enjoy an activity indoors without becoming too loud. There are well intentioned areas of seating that encourage conversation as well as places to get some alone time to read, etc. The communal dining areas allow space for all diners. You feel all together but not crowded. The porch is equally comfortable with seating and dining areas. The amenities keep every age group enthralled. Everyone upon arrival had the same descriptive word for the Barn - awesome!

This was our 3rd time staying here and the place is better every time! There was something for everyone, and the ramp and grab bars were very helpful in accommodating family with limited mobility. We caught fish, played pickle ball, kayaked, played games at the large table, and enjoyed the fire pit, and the comfortable beds. Rich and Lisa are so helpful and kind. We highly recommend staying at the Barn and we are looking forward to our next visit!

Our family gives 10 stars out of 10 stars to the The-Barn-on-Evergreen-Pond. We also give the Hosts-Rich & Lisa 10+++ stars. Over the past 7 years we have gone on family vacations each year at different homes but this location was by far the BEST (unanimously by all)! The BARN (It really is a converted BARN) is beautiful, comfortable, and has everything you need and could possibly want for all ages! We had ages from 70's to 9. We did swim in the pond, used the paddle boat and kayaks, played pickleball, played all the games in the BARN, and the highlight of each day was the fire pit where we made s'mores and talked about all that we had done that day - some people went to The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame - Cleveland, some went to Akron and visited the Siberling Estate (Stan Hywet Hall & Gardens), some went to the Football Hall of Fame- Canton. Although the BARN is in the country- you are close enough to do a lot more and come back to the BARN and relax and enjoy it!!!! Rich and Lisa had a dream about the BARN and they have succeeded beyond expectations. They were the best HOSTS we have had on our many vacations. All of us have nothing but good memories about the BARN. We hope to return in the future. Again we cannot say enough about the Hosts and the BARN but WONDERFUL!!!!!!

Our women's fellowship group spent the weekend at The Barn in early March. We've been going on annual retreats for many years, but as our group has grown, we have had a harder time finding locations large enough. This year--our first retreat since the pandemic--we had 13. We loved the Barn! We had more than enough beds and room to spread out. The kitchen had been renovated beautifully since we had viewed the Barn two months prior, and bedrooms also had been refreshed with new beds. A lower level bedroom had also been added. We were impressed! The Barn was very well equipped, and Rich and Lisa were extremely responsive to anything we needed. We enjoyed hiking the paths on the grounds; had it been warmer, we would have spent more time outdoors. There's lots to do in the home as well with the ping pong, pool table, and more. We enjoyed our stay so much that we have already reserved a weekend next year. Thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay, there’s some much to do whether you’re inside or out. The pond is beautiful and so clean our dogs really had a blast swimming and jumping around. All of the inside games kept our boys amused for hours. We would definitely stay here again!

The property and home were beautiful. The house was well stocked with everything you would need. The beds were so comfortable with high end bedding/pillows. We LOVED the front porch for relaxing and the yard was perfect for games and fires in the fire pit.

Our group of women started our retreat by breathing a sigh of relief to be in such a gorgeous, restful, spacious place. We combined The Barn with The Retreat on the same property which generously housed 20+ ladies for an incredible weekend. The amazing indoor spaces were thoroughly equipped with everything needed and creatively decorated but not cluttered. The outdoor views of the pond, woods, and well-kept yard area provided renewal to our spirits. You could literally be there for a week and not have time to enjoy all of the amenities that the owners provide. Rich and Lisa were completely responsive to our questions and such gracious hosts. The ladies departed renewed and refreshed--already asking if we can return there for our next retreat! Our time at the Barn and the Retreat truly provided a breath of fresh air to our group!

Last year we celebrated my son’s 30th birthday and a year later we went back for my daughter’s. This barn is clean, fully equipped, and has SO much to do even in the winter! And has the bonus of being able to bring our dogs. This has become our favorite place and a new family tradition!

The Barn on Evergreen pond was everything we wanted. We were amazed at all the activities in and outside the home. There wasn't anything we wished was different. The kids enjoyed everything and were never bored and that was without ever watching TV. The kitchen had everything you could ever need and the bedrooms were better than the add showed. The living space was absolutely spacious. And all the extras provided for our stay was something we never experienced before. For example a coffee bar, snacks, and a dog basket with everything needed for our dogs. This place was a definite 5 star experience and we would love to visit again.

Our 2 large families (3 parents and 14 kids ages 1-19) got together and never lacked opportunities for fun and relaxation together. We were pleasantly surprised that pictures didn’t capture just how nice this place is. The furnishings are all high end: leather upholstery, memory foam mattresses not all, but several), quality dining table with sturdy chairs, we could go on and on. We already started considering how soon we can re-book here for another vacation. It was absolutely all that we hoped for and more. Five and a half stars!

We are two families, traveling from Missouri and Maine - this location was our halfway meeting point, and boy, did we hit the jackpot! The owners are the sweetest and the property blew us away!! The barn was stocked with everything we could need, and Lisa even brought over more pans for us to cook our Thanksgiving meal without us asking! :) The space inside is fantastic, so many fun games for our family to play together and plenty of room to spread out when we need a break, haha! We couldn't have asked for a better location for our family Thanksgiving - and the weather was surprisingly nice for November, we got to use the water features!! We are already talking about coming back in the future - thanks for a great stay!
