Excellent stay!!

Beautiful!! The Barn was a perfect getaway location for our long weekend. The pictures really don't do justice. We didn't come across anything that we thought could have been "needed". Love that your neighbor's dog came to visit both evenings in the hot tub. We will definitely be back for another stay. Thank you for sharing your property.
