Great place to disconnect and fantastic night sky view
My family spent 3 nights for a holiday break at the Barndo and had a great time. With 3 bathrooms, plenty of beds, and large amount of open space and seating for all seven of us, we enjoyed some time away from the holiday shoppers with quiet surroundings and nice night sky visibility.
The 6-seater mule was a hit and we explored the grounds daily to see the livestock, ponds, and various deer and birds in the area.
The kitchen was well stocked with gear to prep our Thanksgiving meal as well as a large dining table which provided more than enough space for our crew. Unlike most rentals, there is no keurig, just drip machine.
Bring a telescope! We had a fantastic view of a meteor shower and had fun playing “spot the starlink satellites” over a campfire with s’mores.
Things to keep in mind: I do not say “disconnect” lightly as a description. Internet access is minimal (email and texting access at most via guest WiFi at roughly 4-5Mbps download speed max). I highly suggest downloading offline maps of the area since cell-service is limited to one bar at best, if you have any signal at all. We had some delay to our arrival time and found it very challenging trying to find the front gate after sunset. The same is true if you want to play your own tunes; download your playlists in advance. All of this aside, our stay was a nice break from the all too often social media and news overload. If you really need some TV time, the DirectTV option offers plenty of stations.
