10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
Incredible converted barn made such an atmospheric place to stay after hiking the green mountains with our dog. All was clean and worked really well. We really enjoyed sitting by the huge fireplace every evening - we’d return immediately if we could!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
The barn was the perfect mix of comfort and rustic! All the amenities of home in an old Vermont barn. Delightfully creaky floors, warm fireplace, beautiful views and the ability for lifelong friends to gather and spend time together. Host was in contact and checked in occasionally to see if we needed anything. Definitely recommend and would stay here again.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
The Barn is a great place for family or friends to gather and enjoy all the area has to offer. We enjoyed a few fire pit evenings and coffee cup mornings talking and relaxing.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jun 2025
We loved our stay at the barn. Listening to the creek was so relaxing. Plenty of space for everyone to stretch out and relax. The barn was close enough to civilization to get things if we needed them. The owners were available and communicated well. All questions, comments and concerns were addressed immediately. We would totally stay here again.
