Perfect spot for our small family wedding
This was a perfect spot for our small family wedding. Our entire group loved this place. We were a little concerned if the traffic noise would be a problem, but we didn't even notice it. There were so many entertainment amenities, no one was without something to do during our stay.

My wife was able to work over the WiFi for a few days in comfy cozy atmosphere , and the family enjoyed all amenities provided! We were able to do some local attractions, and support local businesses! Overall great stay! Life’s to short, just book it and enjoy it!

Perfect for All Ages
Our group of friends come from across the country each year for an annual friends trip so it’s a weekend we take very seriously when it comes to planning and choosing the right place. Big Sky Barnhouse was the perfect place for our friends’ weekend. The posting, pictures and details were super accurate and we had everyone from 2 year olds, teens and adults enjoying every part of the weekend here. Kyle was super responsive whenever I had a question and we could have stayed there a whole week with all there was to do. Thanks Kyle for being such a great host and for providing such a dynamic space for groups like ours!

Perfect for family getaway!
Our extended family, 8 adults, ages 37-69, and 7 grandkids, ages 2-12, had an absolutely wonderful time at "the barn"! There was something for everyone to enjoy! The grandkids were able to keep themselves entertained the whole weekend, and the adults had fun playing with them!! We do a family getaway weekend every February and the whole family agreed that this was the best place we've ever gone! It was a unanimous vote that we go back to the barn next year! Kyle is a fantastic host and quickly responded to questions we had during our visit. I highly recommended this experience for a unique getaway! There's no place like it!!!

We loved it!
This was the final weekend of our hockey season and we had a blast! We stayed here with our high school aged daughters ( total of 20) and loved the barn for all it offers. It is an awesome place and hope we can rent it again! Perfect sized for large group meals with plenty to do! :)
