Pictures don’t do it justice!
The barn & loft is beautiful! Bed was super comfy, kitchen & living room was nice. It rained while we were there so our plans were cancelled. So we stayed at the loft most of the time. Such a relaxing stay! I’d highly recommend it to anyone. The host was helpful in answering my questions before our stay.

Hendricks County Barn
We loved the coziness of the property and the special amenities (snacks, drinks). We did have a bit of an issue with the property manager not realizing we had a reservation (VRBO did not send a reminder), but the issue was quickly resolved and did not affect our stay. It was somewhat difficult to find the property, especially in the dark. We followed the directions in the communication, but it was not accurate. Overall, very nice place to stay! Would stay again.

Mini Honeymoon
We absolutely loved our stay in the loft! It is so prettily decorated and the perfect getaway for a couple that wants to relax. The hosts were the best, we struggled to log on to the wifi and even were in an accident while on our trip and the hosts were quick to communicate and help us in any way they could!

At Home in a Barn Loft
The Barn Loft was beautiful, inside and out. The open living space was done in a farmhouse style, quite lovely. The king size bed was cozy and comfortable. The living room and dining area were big enough for several guests. The kitchen and snacks were well stocked as were a variety of drinks in the fridge. The bath included both a tub/shower for guests. The hosts were readily available and very nice. I recommend this stay for a quiet get-away for anyone. There is even a second bedroom if needed.

Wonderful Stay!
The barn/loft was beautiful! Easy to get to and instructions were clear. The swim spa, fire pit, and grill were amazing! We had a couple interactions with the hosts and they were very kind. The inside is absolutely stunning, cozy, and decorated perfectly! We went to Zionsville, Danville, Bridgetown, Rockville and some other small towns. I do wish the door to the upstairs had a lock just for peace of mind overnight, but we felt extremely safe staying there!! Thanks for a wonderful getaway for our anniversary. I would highly recommend this place!

We have thought about how save our guest **feel. Even though you securely lock the barn…a lock going upstairs would probably be reassuring and peace of mind. Consider it done. Thank you for the feedback, you’re our first guest to mention this concern.

Great Place and Great People
The owners were very accommodating and made our stay very welcoming. It's a great place for family and friends. The swim spa was very awesome we used it many times. The owners were even nice enough to come and give the kids popsicles. I would recommend anyone I know to visit this place. There is anything you might need near the house a park, stores and a gas station. The only thing I would say is the wifi was having trouble with anything we tried doing, but everything else they had made it to where we weren't on it often anyways.

Weekend Anniversary Getaway
We wanted to go somewhere where it was quiet and low key. This place fit that bill and more. We loved the property and there were some very nice amenities which we didn’t even completely enjoy. The property had a nice fire pit located near the Jacuzzi pool along with a nice umbrella covered table. We took advantage of the pool both nights. The Lodge was spacious and had everything that we needed. We are glad that Ron and Alena shared this little treasure with us. They were great hosts.

Beautiful, comfortable, clean, and relaxing.
We stopped here on a cross country road trip with our two boys (5 and 7). It was a perfect place to stop. The house is beautiful with a private yard sitting area. The king bed is SO comfortable and my kids loved the huge hot tub that’s actually the size of a small pool. The house is beautifully decorated, well appointed and clean. Elena the host was very communicative, accommodating and nice. We are traveling during COVID and she went the extra mile and assured us the common-touch areas were sanitized before we arrived. I highly recommend this place and this host.

Purcie and her family stopped and spent the night while traveling through...she left the place nice and tidy..she communicated well, very nice family. They even liked my dog Charlie...who seems to never miss a chance to say HELLO...I would welcome the family back anytime. I highly recommend to any host. Purcie, thank you so much for the kind words!

Wonderful Stay.
I can’t recommend staying here enough. The barn is a peaceful retreat nestled perfectly in a small town. It is beautifully decorated and you feel right at home. I would love to stay on a snowy winter night. Don’t hesitate choosing this lovely location you won’t be disappointed. Alena is is lovely and her golden doodle is the sure to bring a smile. Wonderful stay and I hope to visit again.

A lovely host and a wonderful loft!
Our stay was wonderful! The loft is beautifully decorated in a county chic motif with such taste. The layout was cozy, yet had plenty of room. We slept soundly on the very comfortable bed. My husband and I took advantage of the hot tub while looking at the stars. The kitchen had everything we needed, including coffee and a wide assortment of snacks. When we had a question, our hostess promptly answered. We really couldn't ask for anything more and would happily return.

Above and beyond experience!
We were celebrating our 24th wedding anniversary. Alena has a wonderful home and property. We immensely enjoyed our time here and she made our experience so much more memorable with all the little touches along the way. We would and will come back again. I would rate this a 10 out of 5 if I could...we enjoyed the parks not far from our location but didn't need to leave the property at all...picked up some filets at a local meat market to grill. We enjoyed a candlelight dinner out by the firepit. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!!!

I hope to see Charley and Nancy on their 25th, if not before...best guest ever! My Charlie couldn’t get enough of them...they left the loft as if they never had been there. It was my pleasure to host these two wonderful people. Ya gotta love a man who who thinks so highly of his wife....makes my heat sing!
