Countryside Timber Frame Barn Home by weliveinabarn.com
What would it be like to live in a barn? Now you have an opportunity to find out! When you walk through the front door your eyes will be drawn upwards to the heights of the old-style mortise and tenon beams and 35 foot center peak. (Yes, our home is held together by wooden pegs!) As you walk around you will be surrounded by the yellow pine ceiling, walls, and floors.. And you will smell the pine! The many large windows highlight the stunning views up on the hill! You might catch a glimpse of a doe and her two fawns. We hope you will enjoy a quiet and restful escape to the country.
Comfortably sleeps 8. Man cave has an IKEA couch/bed and pullout couch. A queen, two twin air mattresses and extra bedding/pillows are also available.

This home was more beautiful in person than online. We did a lot of cooking while there and they had everything we needed in the kitchen and elsewhere. We would definitely love the opportunity to stay there again. That’s how AWESOME it was. Thank you Benita for being such a gracious host!!!
We were a group of 5 couples traveling to Grand Rapids for a surprise party for a friend. The barn was the perfect size for our group and so nicely done! The main area was perfect for socializing and for keeping distance from each other before the coffee kicked in :) Benita was a pleasure to work with!
This property was spacious and absolutely beautiful. It turned out to be a great gathering spot as we all came together for our youngest son's wedding. We enjoyed games on the porch the evening before the wedding with a casual dinner. The boys were able to hang out while the girls decorated the wedding venue and we were able to gather around the table for late night snacks after the wedding reception. Truly a memorable stay!
We had a wonderful stay, the house is amazing and is worth the experience just to see the care that went into building such a masterpiece. The house has everything you need to have a relaxing stay and enjoy tranquility.
Our son's wedding was in Grand Rapids with the reception at Sunny Brook Country Club. This beautiful slice of heaven was perfect for our family and our son's friends to stay for the weekend. We were able to rent their barn for the rehearsal dinner and it was absolutely perfect.
This property was beautiful in every way and Bonita was absolutely wonderful to work with! If there were more stars to rate her and the property I would!

About the host
Hosted by Benita Koeman
We are an Army family who, through a series of events, built our "future forever home".
In 2015, while stationed in South Carolina, we began to fulfil a dream to build a timber frame home. In the hot Carolina evenings and on Saturdays our family milled yellow pine boards and beams. Over time we hauled them to Michigan, and in the summer of 2017, we began construction of our barn home. Conveniently our next duty station was on the east side of Michigan, so we continued with construction, and in the December 2018, we moved into our home! Some day we can't wait to live in our home, but for now we are excited to share "life in a barn" with our guests!
