Customer Stories
History of this iconic barn
If you have been coming to the valley for years, then you know this was once an iconic restaurant that served the valley for over 60 years in various restaurant capacities, the last and most known being The Common Man.
In 2019, the building underwent a million dollar renovation converting it to 3 very high end, keyless units. For people that have visited the restaurant in the past, they have found staying now offers a high end experience with nostalgia. If you have never been to the restaurant, you will be welcome with beautiful units that have history you can learn about if you so choose.
The units are available for short term or in some cases seasonally. The entire house can also be rented for large parties that want to be together but also have some privacy.
The upstairs units still hold the charm of the old barn while the lower unit houses a more contemporary barn flair. Each unit is completely independent with their own kitchens living areas , decks and private hot tubs.
​
The lower unit is dog friendly, while the upstairs units are small dog considered units.
We welcome you to explore the units and find the one(s) that fit your needs and we look forward to welcoming you to this iconic building that holds a special piece of history in the Mad River Valley.
​
The Mad House is managed via a local professional management group that is available 24 hours a day to ensure all of your needs are met.
