The barn loft was just better than advertised so we will definitely go back for our future as she’s only in her freshman year. ##### Bill G.

We were visiting family in the area and this location was perfect. We were close to all the areas we needed (South Whitley, Warsaw, North Manchester and Columbia City). We stay in a LOT of rentals for our travel. This was the best appointed kitchen we’ve ever had. Absolutely everything you would need to prepare meals. In addition, there were snacks and water stocked for us. We felt so welcomed. Plenty of amenities in the bathroom as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again when we’re back for family. ##### Jackie H. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Leslie F. 22 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place for visiting North Manchester It was great to find a 3br place in North Manchester with a wonderfully stocked kitchen that had everything you could need to make meals. I imagine would be really fun to use the pond in the summer! The only issues we had is my daughter was too tall for the tiny bunkbeds (made for small children) and there are no blinds on the windows. Being we were visiting from west coast when the sun came up it felt like we were waking up at 4am which was not good. The place seems (and smells) brand new and is fully stocked with towels etc. ##### Leslie F.
