It is due for update. Pool was great. Karen in the Lodge dining was EXCELLENT!!! Food was very good. All the folks we encountered who worked at Barren were delightful. The bar was not open- due to lack of help. Our room was clean, a bit musty & needs an update. But, we understand it on the calendar.

Pleasant stay

We visited frim out of state for the first time. We stayed in the lodge. You can tell they are older buildings but kept very clean. Our room was very roomy and comfortable. It would be nice to have a little mini fridge to keep cold drinks or left overs from the restaurant but otherwise it was a good stay.

Will book again!

Booked a 2 night stay/fishing adventure. Had drinks at the lounge the first night and our bartender was top notch. He kept an eye out and was right there ready to refill as needed. Had the breakfast buffet before leaving the next morning and it was good.
