My husband and I really enjoyed our weekend at the Red Barn. We've stayed in many vacation rentals in northeast Alabama, north Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee and the Red Barn was definitely one of the most unique, and has been added to our list of favorites! Don't let the word "barn" deter you. The spacious loft was clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated with quality materials and furniture. You can tell someone made an effort to create a cozy, homey atmosphere (not just thrown together for a vacation rental). We spent a lot of our time lounging on the big, comfy sofa staring out the massive floor-to-ceiling window at the absolutely lovely valley and mountain view and all of the birds flying by (this is *the place* for birdwatchers!). The fully stocked kitchen was a joy to cook in. The barn is on a massive gated property, you really feel like you're out in the middle of nowhere, but it was only a 10 minute drive to Publix, 15 minutes to downtown Guntersville! It is an incredibly peaceful, pastoral location. We enjoyed strolling around the property at sunset. I also appreciated the interesting selection of books in the loft! Although we ran out of time and didn't get to use it, there is a firepit outside, and an unobstructed, big-sky view -- a great place for stargazing!The property and barn loft were beyond our expectations for beauty and comfort, and for an extremely reasonable price! We will certainly be back someday!
