Family Holiday Gathering 2024
The Red Barn was the perfect place for our family holiday gathering. Plenty of room in every regard, fully stocked kitchen and the oversized refrigerators and freezer were ideal for us! All the beds were comfortable and wonderful sized bathrooms. The snowstorm was an added bonus for us to play our reindeer games but we definitely would like to experience the red barn in the summer too! Huge Thanks to Paige and Jamie for all their assistance in our minor matters and the snow plow guy for clearing out the lot for parking!!

Most unique and beautiful house we've ever rented!
Extraordinarily, unique, beautiful barn remodel! Visible, rustic structure, large living area w/natural light, dining for 20+, well-equipped kitchen (but no large stockpot). From previous reviews, oven rack issue is fixed & new coffee maker is fine. All bedrooms are up or down; I worried about our youngest (1) or oldest (85) taking a spill on the thick hardwood stairs, but with solid railings & posts, no one did. Master suite is remodeled hay loft open to the living area; master bath has double sinks and separate tub/shower, beautiful & rustic but not private. You’re last asleep if others are in the living area, & first awake (natural light). Large back deck had seating for ~15; chair cushions were worn but comfortable, and the grass was sparse & parched. Downstairs are three BR’s & a full bath, a den & laundry with 2 W/D’s, and an attached apartment w/two more bedrooms. All beds were very comfortable and linens/towels very clean. AC for the main living & upstairs master wasn’t working properly, and the weather was ~90 so it got VERY warm inside. The owner I reserved with had sold the house and referred me to Jamie with the new corporate owner. When the AC couldn’t be repaired quickly, she got an equitable credit quickly refunded. Also, the key locks should be replaced with electronic deadbolts for easier access & better security. This home is a unique, rustic place to hang out! Be sure to confirm that the AC is fixed, and get a contact you can reach by cell if needed.

Hot as blazes! (& not in a good way)
We stayed here last year and had an amazing time so when it was time to pick a vacation place this year it was unanimous to go back to "the moose house" Unfortunately the temperatures outside was 90 and the temperature in the house was 85. Clearly it was a miserable nights sleep. We were so uncomfortable. I messaged the owner who didn't respond but the man who lives next door was sent over to look at it. Most of us left for the day and my FIL said 3 more people came to look at the AC. Not a single word was said to us about what was going on. We came home to again, 90 outside and 85 inside the house. I sent another message to the owner, Michael Holmgren, with again no response from him. On the 3rd day of 90 degree temps outside and 85 inside, I messaged Mike again and got a short message back basically saying, "yea, you said it was hot, the AC guys said it was fixed." I asked for at the very least some fans be brought over. A different neighbor came by and was talking about how the previous week's guest set the thermostat so low that it froze the coils and they couldn't fix it but they came back Friday and felt it was good to go. (We had some relatives come by who work in HVAC and they said there were 2 units that were not working and that the size of the units is not big enough or efficient enough for the space they are trying to cool and every time the temp climbs these 2 units are going to continue to struggle and breakdown.) It ruined our vacation.

Another great stay!
We have stayed here several times in the past, and it continues to be a wonderful place to gather large groups. There were 12 of us and we fit comfortably and enjoyed the wide open spaces, the decorations and the amenities.

Fantastic weekend reunion
We were able to get our entire family together to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. We had our three children with their spouses and our 11 grandchildren from Friday night to Tuesday morning. We loved the country setting and the spacious facility. Went to WI Dells for a day at a water park and to Hartman Creek State Park for a day hiking. Wonderful Big Red Barn was our home away from home and it was GREAT!! With 7 bedrooms, 5 baths, a great deck, wonderful fenced backyard, fire pit - - we could not have asked for more!! Wonderful condition and cleanliness - we loved it!! Thanks to VRBO and Mike H. for this fantastic weekend for the Nyberg family.
