Remodeled Barn in Champlain Valley, Essex, NY

The barn that is attached to my 200 year old home was rebuilt in 2019 into an amazing 1 bedroom, 1 bath retreat. It is spacious, well equipped and dreamy. After the full re-build, the barn is now a highly efficient timber-frame hybrid living space using both original, re-claimed materials and the latest in energy-efficient products.

The area is serene and surrounded by beauty yet close to of all types of excitement. There are well maintained hiking trails within walking distance, you can take the ferry to Burlington for restaurants and shopping or hop the train to Montreal. The food movement is in full swing up here and that is another enjoyable attraction. In the town of Essex, there is a wonderful yoga studio, the Lake Champlain Yoga & Wellness, several restaurants and interesting history.

The barn is a quiet and private getaway with mountain views, 3.5 miles from Essex and Lake Champlain--comfortable year round, with A/C in the summer and efficient heat and a wood stove for the cold months. The photos say it all!

Amazing. Wouldn't change a thing and wish I were still there!
This place is a unique gem. It was very comfortable, clean, and cozy, and I loved the design and furnishings so much. The location was beautiful and peaceful. It was far enough away to feel like you were getting away yet close enough to amenities, unique stores, Lake Champlain, Burlington, VT, and the Adirondacks to the West. The natural setting was charming, and the friendly goats and hens added to that charm. Audrey was very friendly and the perfect host. I can't thank her enough for letting me stay at her special place, and I hope to visit again.

Great place to recharge
The owner was exceptionally friendly and helpful with information about local activities and restaurants. The cabin was wonderfully appointed and very comfortable. Next time we choose to travel to this lovely region of the Adirondack this will be our accommodations of choice.

A Gem in Essex Countryside!
Refreshing, and Unique! That’s I would describe my stay at Audrey’s cabin. A very well thought out and eclectic decor for a small barn/cabin. There are animals to enjoy, countryside vistas, and you can see great sunsets, Camel’s Hump, Mount Mansfield, VT, across Lake Champlain. The drive there alone is very relaxing. There are several small towns in the area with crafts (Wood, pottery, ironwork), small cafes with local food and nice people to talk to. Very close to the Ferry as well, and 2 hours from Montreal, QC. Started the New Year there, with cool, crisp Winter air. I will definitely plan on returning in different seasons.

Fantastic
The barn and surrounding areas were awesome. The town of Essex is very quaint and we loved the outdoor patio in the evenings with the fire pit. Audrey is a very gracious host and we loved our stay there.

Relaxing
My wife and I were so comfortable and relaxed during our stay. The barn was just perfect, fully equipped kitchen, the restored barn was wanting for nothing. We enjoyed meeting the fouls and goats, and the scenery was just beautiful. Wonderful place to spend quiet time. Enjoyed meeting and chatting with the owner the day of our departure as well. Keith

Beautiful space and location!
This is an idyllic renovated barn, which is new and beautifully decorated. We loved the space! We didn't need it, but there is air conditioning. It is quiet and rural. The owner is just lovely, and we met her sweet dogs while we were there. If you wish you can visit her dwarf goats, which are really cute. The location is like a country paradise- conveniently located near the Essex, which is very pretty. There is a convenient car (or bike) ferry if you wish to take a quick jaunt over to VT, so there is a lot to do in a 30 mile radius. If you like biking, walking or jogging, these hills are made for you. Audrey supplies lots of brochures for activities, hiking, sightseeing and dining. This is one of our new favorite areas in New England and we hope to come back some day!
