    What a beautiful location and wonderful people! The indoor/outdoor space was perfect for guests to socialize, relax, eat, and enjoy. Lots of seating and space for lawn games. Highly recommend!

    After getting the opportunity to work at The Soule House & Carriage Barn and more recently celebrating our baby shower in the Carriage Barn, I have to say this venue holds a very special place in my heart! If you’re looking for the perfect cozy, rustic Vermont vibe, this is the venue for you! The owners have poured their hearts into preserving both The Soule House & the original 1880s carriage barn. When choosing a place for our baby shower, this was my first choice! Take a tour & fall in love! <3

    My husband and I had our wedding at The Soule House and Carriage Barn and absolutely loved it! Lindsay and her team were fantastic with communication, set up, and preparation! She ensured our day was special and the barn looked gorgeous. Having to set up inside with the unexpected rain she jumped right in helping find a place to set up to have a ceremony inside making a stressful day run smoothly. We highly recommend any event/wedding be here🩷

    The Soule House was absolutely perfect in every way for my daughter’s bridal shower. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and full of warmth. The owners couldn’t have been more accommodating — they made us feel like family. What touched me most was that at the end of the day, instead of a simple handshake, we said goodbye with a hug. Truly the sweetest people, and a truly special place! Shannon B.

    Oh my heart Shannon!! To read this review is so reaffirming to reflect what kind of experience we want people to feel when working with our VT family run business. You are so kind for your thoughtful words and we are beyond humbled. We truly appreciate you making memories at The Soule House!

    We hosted a bridal shower at this charming old barn, and it was nothing short of magical! The space was beautifully lit with stunning lights, adding warm, romantic glow to a historic setting. The rich character of rustic elegance, created the perfect place for our celebration. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, attentive, making everything perfect. Highly recommend the Soule barn for anyone looking for a unique memorable space! Of note I’ve also rented it for a work retreat and the home was perfect for that too!
