Bigg's Barn is a pet friendly facility with pre-approval at the time of booking.  Our neighborhood has pets that are outside, please refrain from allowing dogs from running unattended or uncontrolled.    Please do not allow your pet to be on the furniture as this may create additional cleaning and damage that could warrant additional charges, we ask that you bring throws or sheets to cover the furniture.    Pets can become anxious and act out when in a foreign space and their owners are not present so we ask that you kennel your pet anytime you leave your pet unattended.  We also ask that you bring floor pads if your pet is prone to an occasional "accident" indoors.  A litter box is required for cats. 

Be aware, there are neighbors, including the owners, so when outside please respect the peace and privacy of others.   While we welcome friends and family sharing your time, we must request that only registered guests and vehicles be onsite after 11:00pm.  As registered guests, you are responsible for the actions of all those you permit to visit the site.   

The living room, kitchen, and bedroom are all in the same space with a divider wall to the bedroom area. The bathroom is located just outside this space off a hall that leads to the banquet room, a total of around 700 square feet.  The laundry area is located in the storage room of the banquet area. 

Internet is present, however we are a rural location and the service is not high speed and has limitations.  Also, the roofing and ceiling materials are made of metal, depending on your cellular service provider this can effect the cellular service indoors.
