New Years Eve Get Away
The Barn is a comfortable and welcoming property. It was our first visit to the area and we found there to be a range of interesting options. The property is well appointed and very spacious. It is generally well maintained and in keeping with the website photos. We were disappointed with a few issues that were either not working properly or broken but they were not showstoppers. As frequently is the case with VRBO rentals, the property could go from very good to great with a few modest investments, attention to details and modest improvements, particularly at this price point. The hosts, or property manager, was very responsive and helpful to our requests. All in all, a very positive experience. Thanks!

Excellent interior design and architecture, beautifully executed. Kitchen access and function perfect and made cooking and serving a joy. All amenities were available and functional. Hosts were available and helpful throughout our stay our family of 12 included adults. And six grandchildren.

A great stay for eight friends
We loved staying in your beautiful home. There was room for all eight of us to sleep comfortably and hang out together. The home was clean and well stocked, and there was nothing more that we needed to make our stay perfect. The hosts were responsive and lovely to deal with. They answered every question in good time. The only problem is that we left 2 gray raincoats--possibly in the closet near the front door. Please let us know if you find them. We will pay for the shipping. Thank you again, Alicia and Harry

Excellent Place for Family to Gather
We rented this lovely home to stay while we attended a family wedding in the area. Our adult children and two grands enjoyed being together in this comfortable and clean home. We were grateful that each family had its own bathroom. Our granddaughter loved playing ping pong too. Highly recommend!

Such a nice Property!
The photos don't do this property justice! It is more spacious and the decor is more upscale than depicted. Plus you just can't capture "CLEAN" or "comfortable beds" in a photo. It's in a very rural area, but the nearby town is sooo quaint. Unfortunately, we weren't here on a pleasure trip but we'd love to come back to explore the town. We did get pizza at The Owl, which is not your usual pizza joint, their pizza's are gourmet individual pizza's. The cocktails were interesting and the ambiance and service was worth the visit. Thank you so much for opening your home to us. It was much appreciated!

Big Chill 2023
Four college friends and spouses in our 60’s spent a relaxing 2 nights in Alicia and Harry’s beautiful home in the mountains of New Preston. The accommodations were clean, up to date and spacious and impressively equipped with all we needed. The kitchen was perfect for too many cooks to prepare a gourmet dinner. When in the home we spent most of the daylight hours in the living room and most of the evening hours in the family room downstairs. Our ping pong matches were fun. All the bedrooms were spacious and had full bathrooms. We would not hesitate to return.

Wonderful time!
We booked this property as a group of girlfriends and had the most wonderful time! Our hosts were so accommodating, allowing us to reschedule because one member of our group tested positive for COVID right before we were supposed to arrive. The house is beautiful and the property is so peaceful. We would love to stay again!
