The barn was peaceful and quiet- great place for a retreat. The furnishings and finishes are really beautiful and it was unique to stay in a barn. Would be great in cooler weather because you could open up all the doors. We were plenty cool inside but we kept everything closed to keep it cool. I would recommend to bring supplies with you for some meals; although the place is close to a few towns there isn’t a real grocery very close. Then hunker down, play games, and relax in this beautiful space!
