We had a fantastic stay at the Barngalo! The home was spotless, beautifully maintained, and exactly as advertised. The location offered the perfect balance of privacy and convenience into Aiken, with easy access to everything we wanted to do. The accommodations were comfortable, well-appointed, and made it easy to relax and feel at home. Communication with the host was excellent throughout the stay. Overall, an outstanding experience and one of the better VRBO properties we've stayed in. Highly recommend!

Perfect small family reunion

This house was a great site for our small family gathering. The open floor plan is perfect for hanging out. The patio area was shady and quiet. We spent the evenings sitting around the large farmhouse table reminiscing.

Met all expectations

Clean, modern, utilitarian property that I would definitely consider renting again. We were college friends doing a getaway golf weekend and the house was perfect for us. Loved Hanging out in the great room and I imagine we would have loved the outside too if we had visited in a cooler part of the year. Only gripe, which did not affect our stay but could affect others, was the TV situation. It's in a small nook on the 2nd floor and not conducive to group viewing.

Cozy for Christmas & Old Man Winter

We brought in our own simple Charlie Brown Christmas tree & trimmings & had a delightful family dinner. Old man winter had some very low temps so we hunkered in with the fireplace & lots of hot cocoa & soups . The house was cozy & toasty warm .
