| Comments: (5/1/02) - ". . . I wasn't along, but Max told me it was excellent and the people were very nice. He arrived very late and the people still came to greet him. The stall was ready with fresh shavings and everything.". . .(9/20/03) - "Hosts Shelly & Glen were the best!! They kindly welcomed my horses, my dog, and myself after 3 in the morning. Their hay was wonderful and their facilities provided a safe haven for the horses to rest and replenish. This was a wonderful peacefull spot and also had lodging seconds away for the humans. Thanks again. Andrea & Russell" | |||||||

| Comments: (9/21/07) - "Cathy was extremely helpful to us. Providing directions to the local trailer manufacturer for repairs, and also our hotel. After a 20+ hour haul, the horses were able to stretch their legs in the secure arena, and the stalls were bedded and ready for use. Couldn't have been happier and highly recommend." | |||||||

| Comments: (8/29/06) - ". . . The facility was beautiful. VERY Clean! Our host was friendly too. They had a nice smaller indoor arena that we were able to let our horses stretch their legs. The stalls were large, open & safe. I just wish this facility was closer to the main freeway. . . . I would stay here again." | |||||||

| Comments: (4/17/04) - "Great location and staff.". . .(7/19/04) - "This is a new facility which is wonderful. I had three horses and was late in arriving and Carol was so nice about it. Carol is a super person. Her facility is fantastic and I was totally at ease leaving my horses there. I would definitely stay there again and HIGHLY recommend it to anyone traveling through Idaho. I was traveling from Illinois to Washington and it is nice to know there are such great places to stay.". . . (7/29/04) - "Very nice place for horses. Plenty of room and shelter.". . .(10/18/05) - "Carol's setup is great & she had ample room for our trailer with sleeping quarters. She had everything ready & waiting even after we changed our date of stay twice. She's hospitable, friendly and it was a joy to stay at her beautiful place. We were traveling from Arizona to Oregon so it was great to pull in & get set up for the night. Thanks Carol!". . .(9/12/06) - "Wonderful place to stop, with easy access and plenty of room for our large trailer.". . . (6/12/07) - "Thank you so much Western Barns horse motel for helping us in with our new horse. I highly recommend this facility to anyone who needs to rest a horse in the Twin Falls area. The owner was so helpful, and the horse motel was easy to find and close to (human) lodging. I would rate western barns AAA+++!!! thanks so much, Carol, for helping take the stress out of a long haul! Sincerely, Mark and Shawn Wells, Wenatchee, WA". . .(6/15/07) - "Great place so stay, easy to get to off main Highway. Lots of room for a big truck and trailer. (we have a Freightliner with 40’ trailer). Stayed here twice and will definitely be back.". . .(6/27/07) - "Even arriving after hours, Carol was warm and welcoming. The corrals were large and secure. I am telling all my friends to stay here on their way to visit!!". . .(12/5/07) - "Western Barns is **Absolutely** the nicest plave I've ever stayed while on the road. Carol made me feel right at home and I was so at ease, which is sometimes hard when traveling. Her horse facility is so clean and comfy for the horses and her bed and breakfast is the cutest and cleanest place!!!! I higly recommend her ranch to everyone traveling through Idaho." | |||||||

| Comments: (3/5/07) - "Great place. The hosts, Shelly & John, went above and beyond the call of duty to make our stay with them perfect. We completely enjoyed going to Lava Hot Springs for a soak, and our horses were in nice clean pens, during our stay. The hosts had water for our horses all ready for us when we arrived and were VERY helpful and paid great attention to our needs. We will plan on overnighting with them again next year.". . .(6/8/08) - "Our hosts were wonderful, helped us find lodging for our family and took excellent care of our horses. We're fairly new horse owners and this was our first "long haul" trip experience with our horses. John and Shelly made our experience positive and were very reassuring. They were even very understanding and accommodating when our arrival was much later than planned (although I would make every effort not to test their kindness and generosity to such an extent again.) Ditto to the previous horse owner's comments. Everything was clean and wonderful. Our horses endured a long and gruelling trip over the mountain passes of Wyoming. It was such a good break for them. We recommend J & S Ranch very highly and plan to overnight our remaining two horses in Lava Hot Springs when we move them. Thanks again John and Shelly!" | |||||||
