9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (158)
"Feels like home. Great place if looking for quiet surroundings. Will need a car as there is no public transportation close by. If booking the barn and only 1-2 people occupied it will be a studio setting not one bedroom apartment as found out upon arrival. If wanting access to the attached room it was advised on a Google review that it would cost extra and one will need to ask the property management otherwise will not be accessible. Otherwise would recommend as it is in a beautiful setting."
