Long Barn, California

Long Barn is a census-designated place (CDP) in Tuolumne County, California. The 2020 United States census reported Long Barn's population was 162.

Long Barn is located roughly 4 miles northeast of Mi-Wuk Village off State Route 108.

It is near the Quail Site, a 18th and 19th century large food processing and gathering site for the Central Sierra Miwok people.

Long Barn was a wagon stop along the Sonora Pass during the 1800s gold rush era. Pioneers traveling west would stop at "The Long Barn" where they could refresh supplies, food and rest. There is an apple orchard that was planted next to the Long Barn so that travelers could have fresh food; the apple orchard is still there. The Long Barn was torn down in the early 1970s.

The Long Barn Lodge was built in the 1920s, which included a restaurant, rooms, bar and entertainment for vacationers in the mountains. Heralded as the Four Seasons Resort along the area called Sonora Pass Vacationland, the lodge grew to include a pool, horseback riding, ice skating, hiking and more.

The historic Long Barn Lodge, the old lodge, restaurant, game room and bar burned down in 2002, and due to lack of insurance was not rebuilt.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP covers an area of 2.9 square miles (7.5 km2), 99.95% of it land and 0.05% of it water.

The Köppen Climate System classifies Long Barn as having a Warm-summer Mediterranean climate, abbreviated as "Csb".
