Amy, This was so interesting. I've always been a Barbara Mandrell fan. She is one talented and beautiful lady. She is a true example of what a female country superstar should be. I do miss her performing. I saw her being honored last year by the Opry for being a member for 50 years. New subscriber to your channel. Please keep us posted on any updates to Fontanel.

This is the second home that Barbara, and her family lived. She designed the plans for this home and her husband bulit this home for her. Then Barbara and her family moved after only fifteen years maybe a little less than that. She and her husband sold the home to John Rich . John Rich even produced a short reality series in the 2000s in the Fontanel home. In interviews Barbara in the past she said that she and her family would always stay in the Fontanel home with her family. All of sudden she moves in to a third home with her family and Barbara never looked back at Fontanel home in rare recent interviews she does not talk about this home that she desired wanted to have at that time. The last time Fontanel was sold , it was sold to a company or private investor who obviously who does not want any thing to do with the property and the home is just sitting there just rotting away and the beautiful widow celings now are just with mold. I am always going to admire Barbara Mandrell's voice but I have often wondered over years if she made the right deicison for her and her family by living in a huge home only to discover that the home that Barbara loved so much has remained empty, abandon and just rotting away. The structure of the home is still beautiful though. God Bless - Jason.

Such a waste of money and resources. She built her “dream” house, knowing they probably wouldn’t stay there forever.

I've always wanted to visit the font when I was younger. Now that i am much older, I don't care if i ever do. I've lost interest.

That 37,000 square feet Mansion ( it certainly was NOT a Home, but simply a Mansion) is sitting on that Mountain abandoned! Barbara and Her Husband should have stayed in that Mansion it's pathetic what She and Her Husband did,Moved out of Their Dream House and now it's rotting away because of Her stupidity.

The beaufuly Cabin of Barbaraz has deteriorated. A tour of it in abandoned home's. It actually has damage inside. Very sad what happened to the mansion. It was badly trashed during Halloween one yr. Unfortunately nature was destroyed because of this development and i pray the community stops any other developments.
