Great Stay!
My group had a blast here spending our friends last weekend before getting married. We spent most of our days golfing the local courses but the Pontoon rental was a fun addition to our weekend for a great price! The inside was nice and fit all of our group of 8 easily. Owners are incredibly nice and easy to get a hold of and answered all our questions! Good spot to come and hang out for a relaxing stay. Would come back to “The Barn” if I stay in the area again!
