Nice unique place to stay
We loved our time at the Barndominium. Hosts were super nice, communicative, responsive and have a nice ranch. Quiet area away from Kalispell. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was nice, kitchen well suited, even a TV for the football games at night. Would certainly stay again.

Great place, just know what you're booking...
The Cheffs are great hosts who had a well-appointed barndominium with everything you'd need during your stay. My only piece of advice would be knowing what you're booking before committing to a reservation....cows occupy the lower level of the barndo and as such, you will hear very clearly several cows mooing early in the morning and smell "barn" at the lower level. To be clear, the animals are completely separate from the guest entrance and the barn smells completely stay at the lower level; the main living area is quite comfortable, clean and smells great. The outdoor space, while it absolutely includes all the listed amenites, is not a very private space. Just wanted to note these items since these points of mention aren't discernable from the listing photos or description.

This is a working ranch
First - the Barndominium is perfectly decorated and has everything that you will need during your stay. Sue and Suny are very nice, but they are also working. You will see them working with the animals and they are they will definitely answer your questions, other than that they let you do your thing. The two biggest issues for us was the no smoking policy. I am used to that on most properties, but this is a strict no smoking anywhere because of the hay. If you are a cigar smoker, you can always grab a camping chair and head down to the river. The second issue is the flies. You are staying above an actual barn, there are lots of flies. Keep the door closed and used the fly swatter, but be prepared this is a working ranch, there are flies. We loved our stay, and the hosts were super easy to work with. We would definitely recommend the Barndominium for anyone ready to spend a few days on a working ranch.

Nice apartment, restful, clean
Very clean, comfortable property.
Bedding was comfortable. quiet.
Owner was there and busy but nice.
TV reception was spotty and instruction for use were based on idea that you already were familiar with streaming services.
I am not a rancher but could tell they have over grazed the property.

Lovely ranch destination
First time in a barndominium and was lovely! Very clean and comfortable. Power went out when getting ready one morning, but of course no fault of the owner. Her attention to the little details was wonderful! We appreciated the snacks and hat very much!! Perfect location to enjoy the surrounding small towns and visiting Glacier. Loved watching the kids practice their roping, getting ready for their rodeo. Highly recommend this rental!!

Like home away from home but much more beautiful
This is a lovely, comfortable property with many thoughtful touches not seen in other VRBO properties (bathrobes, bear spray rental, facial tissues, dining suggestions, guest book with helpful suggestions for area attractions, etc.). Loved waking up to see the horses, mules, dogs and cats every day. The hot tub felt great after a day of exploring beautiful Montana. Barndominium very comfortable and relaxing space. Some days you can see the neighbor's bison and elk from the barndominium windows. We only slept in the king size bed and it was very comfortable. Both bedrooms good sized with large closets with hangers in the closets, dressers for your clothing. Additional sleeping quarters in the loft (two twin beds) accessed by a ladder.

Where do I start?! Our stay was nothing less than perfect. Sue and Suny are so welcoming and offered several suggestions on day trips and restaurants. The setting is like a Hallmark movie! All of the animals were adorable, especially the cats. Be sure to enjoy the sunrise, there's nothing like it.
The barndominium was very comfortable with all the amenities and then some. The beds were extremely comfy! We loved staying at the property and have already talked about a return trip.
My boyfriend proposed on our trip so this is a very special place for us. Thank you, Sue and Suny!
