Barbara’s Bar

In addition to the vast array of outdoor spaces, the property is also excited to welcome guests back to several upgraded shared interior spaces, including Barbara’s Bar, an extension to the neighboring original 19th-century Farm House. Barbara’s Bar serves as the property’s interior bar and lounge space, featuring an antique pool table and custom made game table, as well as a wood-burning stove, and separate plush seating areas to enjoy while sipping on one of Dunton’s signature cocktails or a glass of wine from the property’s award-winning wine lists. The original Farm House, which houses the camp’s dining room underwent some renovation in 2021 to match the design and decor of the newly added bar and lounge. Named after the beloved woman who at one time lived on the ranch, Barbara’s Bar at Dunton River Camp is an inviting lounge outfitted in Dunton’s signature rustic-chic décor. It is the perfect place for relaxing after a day of fly fishing, mountain biking, or simply lounging in the fresh air.
