"We enjoyed cooking on the grill. We brought both of our dogs. They both loved swimming in the pool. Our Labrador had experience with swimming but hadn't yet done so in a pool. Our Cattle dog is our rescue from Texas and her time at Nicola's was her first summer vacation with us, and her first time swimming. Our cattle dog is only 2 years old, she loved roaming the big yard too. We can't say enough about Nicola's thorough accommodations for the dogs. From little life jackets to toys to doggy decor and towels and treats. We've been to probably a dozen Airbnb locations but this is the first with a pool. A number of times, I was taken by how quiet and peaceful and private it is outside of this house."

"The home was beautiful and the fenced in yard was kept up very well so had no worries letting the dog run around and do his own thing. The new pool was clean and a perfect size for a fun time! The pool can heat up so we were able to play even if it was a little chilly. Would love to come back!"

"The mini barn is a wonderful place to stay when you want peace and quiet, and at the same time great restaurants and shops just a 5 Minutes drive away. It is a paradise when you love to travel with your furry friends, as the fenced-in yard gives them so much safe space (bears are waking up in April) to play and run arround. The interrior is very nice and it has everything you can think of (even hardcore coffee-afficionados will find their tools to brew their fav drink). It was sparkling clean and cosy and we felt at home from the minute we walked in. The barn is also great for a workaction as you can use the room upstairs as an office and the WIFI is working really well. Nicola is a fantastic host: she recommended us top spots in the neighborhood, gave us proactively an overview of the vets in the area and her communication style and speed is mindblowing. To me, she is the perfect host – she really cares about your perfect stay. Book NOW!"

"The host also understands anticipation. After it snowed one night, we woke up to find the driveway already plowed and the deck cleared without us even asking. The communication was flawless and every amenity felt intentional. It is rare to find a home that feels this considered and genuinely welcoming from start to finish."

"Nicola was an outstanding host!! She was extremely communicative and thoughtful. She generously offered an earlier check-in due to a pending storm, extended our checkout time, and even checked in before a snowstorm to make sure we knew where to find emergency supplies. We never needed them, but it showed how attentive and prepared she is."

"We had the best time at the Mini Barn! Nicola was an amazing host. The location is perfect and quiet but close enough to the cutest town with little shops and coffee spots. The property is perfect for dogs and ours had the time of her life. Can't wait for our next escape here! Thank you Nicola !"

"This was perfect for our weekend getaway! Nicola's place it's so lovely, our dogs loved it and we would definitely consider to come back!"

"Wow! I can't say enough good things about Nicola and her home. It was very beautiful and the fenced in backyard was amazing for my two dogs. It was very secure and exactly as described. Nicola was also very responsive and made us feel right at home. Thank you again for a wonderful stay!"

"The whole point of our trip was to give our dogs the best time ever, and with Nicolas reccomendations and her Airbnb, we were able to do that. The fenced in yard is awesome and the house had everything you could think of. We couldn't believe how clean the house was , especially with it being dog friendly."

"Nicola's home was exactly as pictured- as well as spotless. She was extremely proactive, helpful, and accommodating. Her home is cozy, very local to the downtown, yet private. And of course, the fenced in yard was amazing for our dog and us to enjoy. Great stay and will come again!"
