Here Are A Few Kind Words from Groups Who Booked It All:
"We had the best Christmas ever, and everyone loved how beautiful everything was. So glad we rented the Event Space in addition to the lodging, as that's where we stayed most of the time. Everyone couldn't believe how you had everything anyone would need everywhere; you thought of everything. We want to thank you again for letting us rent your beautiful place." –Jade

"We rented the entire Barn Burner, including the Event Space for our retreat. WOW! The details that Kara and Clint put into each unit were incredible. It was like staying at a resort… The Event Space was the perfect size for what we needed... Kara was quick to respond to all my questions during the booking process. We will be back again and again." –Stacy
"We hosted our family's Traveling Reunion here last week. Rented the whole Barn Burner and the Event Space. Everyone loved it!! The apartments are very clean and stocked with everything you need... The upstairs patio was a tremendous hit. The event space was perfect for our gathering spot with the rest of the relatives that were staying elsewhere. There were 47 of us all together. Great place to host a family reunion!" –Ann
"We booked the Barn Burner for an 80th birthday celebration. Kara was great support for our trip, and all the units were very well equipped to accommodate our family of all ages. And the event space was great for our family meals and gathering. We would highly recommend the Brown County Barn Burner!" –Chris
"We had 15 guys stay at the Barn Burner for 5 nights on a biking trip... The accommodations were incredible for this type of trip. All the bikes were stored in the event space, which was a great place to keep them while also having Brown County Bikes in the same building. We used the outdoor space in the evenings for dinner and thoroughly enjoyed the fireplace. The apartments are top-notch with everything you could possibly need. We've now stayed there twice and will definitely be our go-to in the future. Thanks, Kara!" –Brian

Free high-speed Wi-Fi internet is available throughout the building. ☆☆ ROOFTOP PATIO ☆☆ 
Enjoy the spacious rooftop patio, the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or s’mores around the gas fire table. With covered seating, ceiling fans, a gas grill, and glowing string lights, this space is ideal for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors.
The rooftop patio is the primary shared space between all the units, making it a great gathering place for larger groups that have rented the entire building.
1-North also has a private ground-floor patio with a grill and dining setup. 
☆☆ FAMILY-FRIENDLY ☆☆
Each unit at the Barn Burner has a Pack ‘n Play, highchair, kid-friendly dinnerware, a selection of blocks and games, and a safety gate for the stairs.&nbsp;
All windows have blackout shades, making it easier for little ones to nap or sleep while the rest of the group enjoys their stay.

☀ Six 8-ft tables, eight 6-ft tables, and 70 black folding chairs included at no extra charge - arrange them however works best for your event ☀ Attached catering kitchen with a refrigerator, ice machine, 3-bay sink, and prep tables (no oven or microwave - your four lodging unit kitchens cover the cooking) ☀ TV w/ HDMI cable and a rolling whiteboard for presentations, planning sessions, or workshops ☀ Two large overhead doors can be opened to create an open-air feel in warm weather ☀ Fully ADA accessible with two unisex restrooms ☀ Free high-speed Wi-Fi throughout ☀ DIY space where guests are responsible for setup & teardown of tables, chairs, and decorations, and for returning furniture to its original location before check-out. ☀ Guests supply their own tablecloths, serving ware, plates, utensils, and catering supplies. ☀ Want a hands-off experience?

Setting up for something big? If you'd like extra Event Space hours on your arrival or departure day, contact me directly to make arrangements and confirm availability.
☆☆ PLANNING A WEDDING? READ THIS FIRST ☆☆ 

Wedding-related events in the Event Space require the full lodging to be booked (good news - that’s exactly what you're booking here!). Rehearsal dinners, welcome parties, post-wedding brunches, and micro-wedding ceremonies or receptions are all welcome, and a great use of the space.
To be clear about capacity: if you are planning a wedding reception and want a traditional dance floor plus dining tables, you're realistically fitting 20-30 people in the Event Space, not 45+.
Most wedding groups use the Barn Burner as home base for the wedding party, but hold their ceremony and reception at a larger venue. 
Got a bigger guest list? I'm happy to share a list of Brown County wedding venues that fit. ☆☆ FOOD & ALCOHOL POLICIES ☆☆ Guests are welcome to bring their own food or hire a licensed caterer of their choice for events in the Event Space. Planning to serve alcohol at your event to guests not staying in the lodging at the Barn Burner? You'll need either a licensed and insured bartender or an event liability policy that covers alcohol service - the rental agreement has the details, and I'm happy to answer any questions for you. ★☆ Book Your Getaway at the Brown County Barn Burner Today! ☆★ ☆☆ MORE WAYS TO STAY AT THE BARN BURNER ☆☆

There are four dedicated parking spots behind the building, accessible via Honeysuckle Lane. Additional free street parking and public lots are available nearby.
Rideshares like Uber and Lyft are very limited here, so plan to drive or walk - most of town is within walking distance, but you’ll want your own vehicle for venturing beyond it.
☆☆ LOCATION ☆☆
The Barn Burner sits at the corner of Jefferson and Washington Streets - a few easily walkable blocks from Nashville’s locally owned shops, galleries, restaurants, and coffee spots. The paved Salt Creek Trail (less than ¼ mile away) leads to the Brown County Music Center, and you’re under a 5-minute drive from Brown County State Park, with Bloomington and Columbus an easy drive beyond.
