Getaway
If you want to step away from the craziness of life, then the Red Barn is your answer. The animals are all sweet, even the donkeys who greet you on your arrival. You will see deer grazing behind the barn, and you can easily spend hours at the Bugsby beach. Carol is a very special hostess, who will make sure your stay is enjoyable. The nice thing about this property is location. The location gives you the opportunity to enjoy the country but at the same time close to Elizabeth City, and area tourist attractions.

Suburb!
OMG I can't say enough good about this property. Beautiful location, great amenities (beach, picnic area, gentle horses and donkeys). Soft beds. Very nice bed linen, fully stocked kitchen, deck with very nice furniture. The owner responded immediately to my comments and allowed me to stay 2 hrs past check-out time. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting to get away in a country setting. Thanks to all who helped me. May God bless you all!

Awesome getaway
What a wonderful place! It is so peaceful and relaxing. You are staying above the horses with the donkeys right across the road. Beach is a nice walk. There are board games and books, complete kitchen and the bedrooms are huge and comfy. Highly recommend!

Lovely place to get away!
This is such a unique property. We came to kayak. Launching from the property’s beach was easy. Newbegun Creek is beautiful! We were able to easily get to other kayaking destinations from there including Lake Drummond in the Great Dismal Swamp! The barn is well appointed and it was such fun to see the horses and donkeys every day. Low connectivity meant fully unplugging which was just fine with us! Carol was very attentive and easy to get ahold of. We highly recommend staying here!

Wonderful property!
We loved our stay! Carol and her husband are very accommodating and amazing hosts. We will be back! We love the animals. Our daughter especially enjoyed feeding the horses and donkeys. The private beach was breathtaking. We enjoyed the canoes and the view. We rode around the trails in the golf cart also. We enjoyed riding around in it! The condo is beautifully designed. Clean and spacious. We had a great time! We went to h2obx which is an hour away but was worth staying at the barndominion for everything you get with the property.

Quiet and Charming
We enjoyed the peaceful country atmosphere and the sweet horses & donkeys nearby. The kayaks and beach were perfect for daytime hangouts and evening dinners by the grill. The unit is very new with durable finishes and comfortable furnishings.

Unique Weekend Getaway
My family and I were lucky enough to come across this property for a crew sprint hosted on site. We decided to make it weekend getaway. We enjoyed the entire property, the horses, beach and trails. We will be back!

Relaxing and beautiful!!
We absolutely loved staying at this property! The house was clean, with a nice layout; the bedrooms were on opposite sides of the house. The horses and donkeys were happy to get our attention and love and didn't mind our little dogs :) (We didn't let them get too close). Our favorite part of the property was the waterside at the end of the lane. However, we thought we would have a water view from the top deck. Having the golf cart to drive down to the water (which wasn't far at all) made up for not having the view of the water. We loved the neighborhood and even looked up homes for sale while we were there :) We will stay there again :)
The accommodations were wonderful! Clean and inviting space. The only downside was the apartment is above a barn and you can hear everything from down below, so if you are a light sleeper this may not be the place for you.
