The 1st level of our Barn House is perfect for family vacations or simply gathering with friends. The four-bedroom and two-bedroom options are never rented out at the same time to provide our guests with privacy, exactly what they need, and two pricing options.
We also do not rent out the 2nd and 3rd floors as this is our home too. Because we have self check-in and coded locks, we rarely see or hear our guests unless they need to contact us during their stay.
