I would highly recommend the Barnes Group for all of your insurance needs. They truly look out for what is best for you as a customer. Filing an auto claim has never been easier. One call to my agent, Randy Barnes, and he took care of everything for me. When my homeowner’s insurance went up, Heather reached out to me to do some price comparisons. You get professional services with the small town care.

It all started with a quote for me for my vehicles. I appreciate that I know that Nate and Heather are always looking out for my best interest.

Barnes Insurance Group carries both my home and auto insurance. I have been with since before they moved into their new building. Fortunately, I have not have many claims, but when I do, I can trust them to give me the best service I could ask for. Chuck, Nate, Heather, the whole team are very professional, courteous, and top notch people to work with. If you are looking for an insurance carrier, I suggest you give them a try.
Due to the internet, there aren’t as many quality insurance companies left where you can actually talk to someone that really cares. Do yourself a favor and buy your insurance from the Barnes Insurance Group. You won’t regret it.
Barnes Insurance agency is a home town caring insurance agency. We are grateful for the friendly service they give. While on vacation we had a tree drop on our home and one of our vehicles. Nick answered to our frantic call after hours to help us with what to do to secure our home until we could get back in town. Prices are reasonable and we pay for what we need not what they want to sell.
I have had great experience with this place, they will send me reminders if I need to sign a document or miss something, so I do not get charged an extra fee for not submitting some paperwork or missing something. also great to deal with if I have an accident or issue when I need the insurance to cover something.
