★ The basement of the barn is equipped with an indoor beach room filled with sand, beach swings, a tiki bar, and an infrared sauna.

★ The outdoor patio in the backyard is LOADED with amenities that will keep your group entertained for days. Walking out from the basement, you will find a turf area with a custom designed Tiki Bar, 8 Person Hot Tub, Outdoor Shower, Patio Swings, Firepit, Full Sized Sand Volleyball Court, and a Frisbee Golf/Frolf course with chains and discs.

★ There is also a deck above the back patio with patio furniture, a bartender serving bar in the corner, and views over the backyard space.

★ Coming in the Fall of 2024 (Oct/Nov) there will be a state of the art SkyTrak Golf Simulator and Arcade Lounge in the heated garage.

★ Heading inside, you will find a custom slide taking you down from the upper level right down to the kitchen! You can also take the stairs if you wish. You'll find a beautiful barn loft interior with over 5,000 square feet to spread out. Most material and furniture has been sourced and created from local Amish reclaimed barnwood.

★ Across from the living area you will find a pool table, arcade machine, board games, karaoke, and guitars for more fun inside.

★ The Barn Silo on the upper level has been converted to a "Silo Bunkhouse" for additional sleeping accommodations in the Silo!

★ Off the other side of the kitchen you will find a relaxing screened in porch with more patio furniture, leading you out to another deck off the side of the house with a Blackstone flat top grill for guest use.

★ There are multiple areas in the barn for remote work stations in case you or anyone in your group is working remotely, or if anyone needs some space to pop open their laptops.
