Best Yellow Secret
It was above and beyond a hotel room, Yellowbarn restores your spirit as you relax in comfort and quiet. Love the whole experience, can't wait to return in October.

Nice but a couple of issues.
Overall it was ok. Nice accommodations. The room was fine. The common areas kitchen, living room and tv room were very warm due to an ac unit just blowing tepid air. Uncomfortable to sit in. The coffee maker grounds basket was not cleaned and had mold in it. The caretaker came and took the coffee maker. We still had a Keurig machine to use.

Everything was exactly what I was told. The bed was super comfortable and the bathroom was very clean with everything you needed if you forgot your own. Breakfast goodies in the fridge and coffee if desired. Someone did arrive in a the late evening and could be heard above my room but there was no more disruption than would be at a hotel. I never met anyone face to face as far as owners or managers but that’s fine as everything can be done with credit cards. I was also impressed with the overall style of the Yellow Barn very rustic but not old. Stair railings and great room were inviting and I loved the long table to seat multiple people. I’d definitely bring family and friends back and will plan to stay in the future.

Yellow Barn Rocks
Honestly blown away. Family stayed at Greek Peek for a gathering. I stayed here and wish we just rented the whole barn. It's one of the most picturesque, perfectly appointed place I've ever stayed. The worst part of my stay was dealing with Greek Peek staff and only one family member getting to see the AWESOMENESS that is The Yellow Barn. Caretakers and owner communicate n care Honestly....just Book it n thank me later!

Adorable, cozy, friendly
Parents visiting son at college loves this cozy comfy clean quiet “barn.” It was hand built and its history is fascinating. The kitchen was well stocked, the host responsive and helpful. I have decided to stay here for all future trips and to even bring my entire family for graduation.
