The Barn exceeded expectations. Judging by the photos, we knew it would be nice but it was even better than we had hoped. Check in was simple and the place had everything you could hope for. The amenities were great, especially the kitchen, bed and shower. The views of the mountains were spectacular and the hot tub and fire pit were a nice way to wind down at night. We were a little concerned about the drive to and from downtown but it was no more than 10-12 minutes in either direction. We did see two bears, one on the drive up to check in and one in the morning on the property. No issues either time.We would stay here again without hesitation. The price was more than reasonable for what we got in return. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!
