A Family Legacy of Animal Enthusiasm

For over five years, Big Red's Barn has been a cherished destination for families and animal lovers alike.

An Array of Animal Encounters

Step inside, and you're greeted by a diverse menagerie:

These are just a few of the residents that make Big Red's Barn a standout attraction. ​

Celebrations and Community Engagement

Recognized as the "Best Kids Birthday Party" venue by the North Idaho Business Journal for three consecutive years, Big Red's Barn offers private party spaces perfect for celebrations. Beyond parties, the barn actively engages with the community by sponsoring local sports teams, hosting educational field trips, and collaborating with schools and camps to foster a love for animals among the youth. ​
