Unexpected Treat This Halloween
With Hipcamp, sites are like a box of chocolates. You never know what you are going to get. The Green Barn is like one of those yummy pralines or liquid filled cherry candies I love. While not a location with a lot of amenities it was perfect for our stay. The site's biggest advantage? It's proximity to Yellow Springs, a quirky little town that is one of the friendliest places you will ever visit, pandemic or no. As avid cyclists, the town was well within riding distance and full of fun shops and restaurants. For those of you of a more adventurous spirit, it is closely positioned to the Little Miami Bike Trail, John Bryant State Park, Clifton Gorge Natural Preserve and a host of other desirable outdoor destinations.
Coming back to our site was perfect for winding down from the day. Ryan, did an admirable job preparing our site with firewood and citronella torches and waste bins were conveniently located. Mornings and evenings were quiet and while traffic could be heard in the distance, it was not disturbing. The site was near the garden area prepared for winter and covered with a plastic sheet and probably the only distracting part of the location.
We were lucky in the selection since the weather made for a perfect Autumn weekend. The sun was at its autumnal best, warm and inviting. Leaves were dancing gently, providing entertainment as only the natural world can choreograph. The wind, rustling through the walnut grove, added its song, making for a perfect ambiance. If you decide to schedule the Green Barn for your stay and you have everything you need, you won't regret your choice.
