A century ago, Iowa’s countryside was dotted with “post-and-beam” barns, many of them painted a distinctive red color. You can still find some of them around the Hawkeye State today, many still in use – but one in the small town of Elkader has been transformed for a completely different purpose. It’s now Barn on the Bluff, a historic bed and breakfast in Elkader, Iowa that has transformed the massive hayloft into a five-level residence that can sleep as many as twenty guests. Can you say “the ultimate family reunion getaway”? The owners, Rick and Julie, pride themselves on comfort and hospitality, so you can expect a one-of-a-kind environment and a fresh and delicious breakfast every morning. Step inside the barn, and discover what might just be the most unique overnight stay in all of Iowa!
