Built from vertical timber slabs cut from trees off its very own acreage, is one of the few still standing strong of its kind to date. Due to the reservation and preservation of the grounds, it does not completely resemble the original landscape however the original orchard and avenue of pine trees still stands, to date, as it did in the 1870's. The combination of authentic landscape and foundations contrasted with the modernistic food scene that Going Gourmet offers proves Baxter Barn to be the perfect venue for you.
