The Little Red Barn

10/10 Excellent

"WOW!!! Coming from busy Central Florida into such a peaceful laid-back atmosphere was a real treat. A totally cozy comfortable setting nestled at the end of a Lane of hickory trees, The view across miles of farmland really sets the pace for peace and quiet. There is a stove and fully loaded kitchen if you want to cook but for us it is only about seven or eight miles from some very decent restaurants, Shannon was the best host you could ask for! He is close by but right there if needed."
