The Barn house was the perfect place for our long weekend visit to the Black Hills! We were looking for some quiet time with a view from the porch and that is exactly what we found. Brian and Joan were great hosts and very enjoyable to deal with!!! We will definitely be back to stay in the future!

The Nemo area is a little piece of Heaven. Staying at the Barnhouse makes it 10 times better!! One of the best VRBOs we have stayed at! Joan was so very nice, we didn't get a chance to meet Bria unfortunately. Don't pass this place up if you are looking to stay on the Nemo area!! Until next time......

Great hosts. Beautiful, central location for day trips around the region. Nice to come home and relax in the cooler mountain air. My kids loved the loft, their horses, and dog. I loved the hammers.

This place was way more than what I expected! Exquisitely decorated to its era, exceptionally clean (and I like clean), and well stocked with everything you would need for a comfortable stay! The view is undeniably spectacular with Mountain Nemo waiting to greet you every morning and waiting to say goodnight at the end of the day. The hosts, Brian and Joan, are the kindest, most welcoming people you will come upon in your lifetime. I rate this a BIG TEN!!! It's that good!

We had a wonderful time here. The place had plenty of room for us to get our dogs out in the evenings when we got home from our day trips. The horses were great! Brian and Joan were fantastic hosts. The cabin is full of little details and the history behind it is fantastic. We loved sitting out on the front porch and taking in the scenery. Definitely recommend!

What a wonderful, quiet, and cozy cabin for a getaway! The ambiance was incredible! With it being in a valley surrounded by rocky hills and blanketed with pines and the ability to dim the gas lantern looking lights creates a mood and a coziness feeling that is indescribable. The hosts are fantastic and very easy to converse with. The ability to bring our dogs was a massive plus. I will be recommending to everyone I speak to about this outstanding spot.
