This was our second trip to Sky Barn Retreat. Everything was perfect. Chrystol is very friendly and helpful. The view off the back deck is probably my favorite aspect of the property. It was great to be out of the 90 degree heat back home at the beach. My morning walks were great with the temperature being in the low to mid 50's at sunrise and being greeted by all the deer and other wildlife. The proximity to Skybar 5506' is great as well. The kids and I enjoyed going up there and throwing the football while my wife and I have a few drinks and enjoy the view. We will definitely be coming back again soon.
Thank you so much, Ben! We loved welcoming you and your family back to Sky Barn Retreat for a second stay. It makes us so happy to hear that you enjoyed the cool mountain mornings, the wildlife, and especially the views from the back deck. It sounds like you made some wonderful Father’s Day memories! We truly appreciate you choosing to return and look forward to welcoming you all back again soon!
Enjoyed the house throughly, host was quick to answer any quetions. Plenty of room for our family. The kitchen was definitely the hub for us. Easy to get to slopes so you didn't have to fight the resort crowd. So we dropped the kids at the lift and they walked back when they were ready. Beds were cozy, hot tub was hot! Great views, can't wait to go back!
Hi Jennifer,
Thank you for taking the time to leave Sky Barn Retreat a review. I’m so happy that all of you fully enjoyed the property as well as the gathering space that the kitchen provides. I agree, it’s so nice to be able to enjoy the slopes from the top. I’m happy to hear that you and your family were able to experience the benefits of the property’s location. Thank you for choosing Sky Barn Retreat!
We enjoyed this house so much. We had plenty of room to spread out and we also could enjoy being together cooking and playing games. The hot tub was great too. The sunsets were a 10. The owner was so accommodating to all of our needs at anytime . We will def be back!

Hi Mende,
Thank you so much for the kind review! We’re thrilled to hear that the home was a great fit for your group and that you were able to enjoy both time together and space to relax. It’s wonderful to know you loved the hot tub and those sunsets—we never get tired of them either. Thank you for choosing Sky Barn Retreat! Come back and see us again soon!
We had an awesome time. The house was beautiful and very accommodating.
The place is awesome. Just as described. Having 2 garages for the winter is a must. So convenient.Top ski lift just a minute drive away so easy to drop skiers off. No parking though.The weather was not perfect but because of the accommodation we had a great time. Have a 4 wheel drive for the winter. Or chains.The hot tub was great after skiing.The wall heaters upstairs were a bit noisy for a light sleeper like me but the place was nice, warm and cosy.

Shared from the owner: "Hi Kim, thank you for the wonderful 5-star review! We're thrilled that you enjoyed your stay and the slopes. We hope the hot tub helped make up for the less-than-ideal weather conditions. We truly appreciate your feedback regarding the wall heaters, and we hope they didn’t disrupt your sleep too much. Thank you for choosing Sky Barn Retreat and for being such fantastic 5-star guest!"
