My name is Rick McLean & my wife is Samantha McLean, we are your host at Barney Creek Retreat. We have been together since Samantha was in high school 30 years ago. We have been married for 27 years. We have 4 kids and 6 grandchildren. We LOVE LOVE LOVE DOGS, especially DOODLES. We currently have 9 dogs & 4 puppies. We have 3 rescues, a beagle, Shitsu mix, and mixed bully. We have 1 Bernese Mountain Dog, 2 Bernesdoodles, 4 Goldendoodles and 4 12-week-old Bernedoodle puppies.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with the property from day one. The history, the old farmhouse, main house and the views were everything we wanted. We knew from day one we wanted to share the views and property with others by building yurts for glamping.
What makes this property unique
The views are stunning from the wrap around deck. Sit around the campfire and take in all the sights and sounds the National Forest has to offer. The widlife and Barney Creek running thru the property
