Location of “The Barn”

The Barn at Smugglers’ Notch is located on our 77-acre historic Dodge Farm in Jeffersonville, VT.  We are conveniently located to both Stowe & Smugglers’ Notch Resorts.   To us, the most important thing when building this venue was the location.  This is a spectacular location with unobstructed views of Smugglers’ Notch, The Green Mountains and Vermont’s Highest Peak; Mount Mansfield.  We fell in love with the location at first sight.  We are surrounded by nature, yet conveniently located to Stowe & Smugglers’ Notch Resorts and all they have to offer.  We are actually closer to Stowe Mountain Resort, than Stowe Village is!  Below is one of our fabulous views!

Summary of “The Barn”

Our Monitor Barn was constructed from the ground up by local Vermont builders, who are well known, award winning builders of Barns for the “Weddings and Wine” industry.They have built barns all over the country for Wedding and Winery venues, including the award winning Pippin Hill in Virginia (where weddings start at 6 figures).Our Barn has won awards for both design and energy efficiency.When designing The Barn, we wanted to do something different than other venues in Vermont, by raising the bar with our high levels of finish and elegance.The reaction from the state’s top wedding professionals and of course the brides has been a collective, “Wow, this is an extremely beautiful and well thought out venue in a beautiful location”.We also often get the response that “this place is amazing!”One of the top wedding planners in the state viewed our venue and told us, “I am speechless, this is what I have always thought Vermont needed in a wedding venue.  Something more upscale.  This is something I would expect to see in the country side outside of NYC or Boston!”  We are excited that our vision for this venue has been so well received and we were voted amongst the top 5% of wedding venues. We have designed this building to be modern and offer all of the comforts of a high end luxury venue, while esthetically fitting with the vernacular of our New England landscape.

The Barn has been built using Post & Beam construction, giving it a rustic feel.  However, through the use of high end finishes, we have raised the elegance factor, while remaining in harmony with the vernacular of our picturesque surroundings.  The Barn has many windows to capture the natural light and amazing views of the Green Mountains.  A unique feature of the design of our barn is that there are no interior posts to obstruct views.  Our modified post and beam construction enables all guests to have a great view of event happenings, as well as allowing ultimate flexibility in the layout of guest tables.
