The Barn

Come check out our historical barn that was built in the mid 1800's and was originally used as a dairy barn. Although some additions, including the milk house and silos no longer stand, the HayLoft itself still contains an operating "original" hay hook for the loading and unloading of loose hay. The original foundation still exists and is built of stones and boulders gathered from the property. The frame of the building is held together by the original handmade wooden pegs and mortise and tenon joints. The rustic elegance of this barn speaks for itself.
