My husband had me do all the conversations and negotiating. Jim treated me with respect and kindness. I just wish we could have reached a deal sooner. negotiating. Jim treated me with respect and kindness. I just wish we could have reached a deal sooner. More
My husband and I were very pleased with Tim's professionalism and easiness to work with. To be honest, I hate vehicle shopping and usually have my husband do it without me. This experience was professionalism and easiness to work with. To be honest, I hate vehicle shopping and usually have my husband do it without me. This experience was the most pleasant one I have ever had with a car salesman! More
I have had many great experiences with Barkau of Cedarville. The employees are very friendly and seem to genuinely want my experience to be comfortable. They go out of their way to make this happen. Cedarville. The employees are very friendly and seem to genuinely want my experience to be comfortable. They go out of their way to make this happen. I would have liked the price to be lowerbut settled with the deal rather than have the inconvience of shopping around more. Also the interior of the vehicle wasn't as clean as I thought it would be. But all in all it was a good experience and I would return and refer others. More
I started one day just by looking at vehicles not intending to buy anytime soon. I was 11 payments away from paying off my current car, but I felt I needed to be in something a little more winter rel intending to buy anytime soon. I was 11 payments away from paying off my current car, but I felt I needed to be in something a little more winter reliable (previous actions had proven my car was not winter safe). I had found one vehicle that I had liked at another dealership, but I felt very rushed and not 100% positive I was making the right choice by going with that dealership. A family member & a close family friend highly advised me to check out Barkau's one more time and see what Pat could find for me. I knew after testing driving the Ford Edge at another dealership it was exactly what I wanted. So I called Pat at the Freeport store and gave him the specific's of what I want and did not want in a vehicle. Pat called me back a few hours later explaining what he found for me. To my surprise after going to the store after work he found EXACTLY what I was looking for in better condition plus more then what I asked for. That made me extremely happy, almost like a kid on Christmas. Who am I kidding, I felt like a kid on Christmas when I saw my new car on the lot. Instead of giving me several choices to choose from to confuse me and make it harder to choose, he took everything I said and found the PERFECT and EXACT car I was asking for. He went out of his way to find what I wanted and had it brought to them because they did not have it on their lot. That to me, says a lot about a dealership. Instead of putting me in something I would not be satisfied with, he went above and beyond to get me what I would love. I did not feel rushed, pressured or even pestered to buy a vehicle from them. I do not rush into desicions like this very fast. I like to be sure I am doing the right thing, and Pat was very genuine in making me feel like this was going to be a very great investment for me. Where as before I felt at the other dealership I was just another $$ sign and they truly did not care, they were just trying to make a sale. Thank You so much Pat & everyone at J.H. Barkau & Son's for getting me exactly what I wanted in a vehicle and for getting me into it the same day it came on the lot! John J. really did do a wonderful job at keeping me at the payment I was comfortable with and not toying around trying to make a sale. John was up front and showed me all the numbers & got me a really great deal! Barkau's will be high on my recommendation list to everyone who says they are looking for a new/used vehicle. I have 2 family members already considering going to them after my experience! Thanks again guys! More
Exceptional Service....This dealership is both professional and quaint. Other dealerships that we had shopped were very institutional. We would recommend J.H Barkau and Sons to all! It was well wo professional and quaint. Other dealerships that we had shopped were very institutional. We would recommend J.H Barkau and Sons to all! It was well worth the drive from Wisconsin. All employees explained everything very well and let us make our decision. We will be back in four years! Thank You. More
This was a fairly easy transaction for the employees. I had researched on-line and knew what I was looking for but even so they did everything to make my visit a pleasant one and give me what I wanted. Eve had researched on-line and knew what I was looking for but even so they did everything to make my visit a pleasant one and give me what I wanted. Even after I had purchased the vehicle and got back from a short trip, I phoned Bob and told him of a few minor details (a brake light out, some lights burnt out on the dash and a plastic cowling that was loose) he took care of those problems in a timely fashion. Everything was explained to us, from the loan interest rate, down to the extended warranty, in a good fashion. More

Tim was an amazing salesman. He helped us find my family and I's dream vehicle. Tim put it best when he said "you have outgrown your old vehicle and let me see what I can do to put you in a new one." Very and I's dream vehicle. Tim put it best when he said "you have outgrown your old vehicle and let me see what I can do to put you in a new one." Very descriptive and knowledgable about the vehicle we chose and did NOT PUSH the sale. To my husband and I that is important. We have been to many dealerships and none of them even came close to this one what-so-ever!!!! It was well worth the three hour drive and needless to say they all did a great job!! Even dealing with my 19 month olds screaming. Thank-you J H Barkau and Sons for making this an easy and pleasant transaction!! More
I was impressed with Tim in helping my 16 year old daughter understand the features of the 2008 Chevy Cobalt (her first car!) He also showed her how OnStar worked and also set up the account.

Kevin was very helpful with financing and the extended warranty. I felt we got a great buy. I would definitely recommend this dealership. More
It took a while before we could agree on a price for our used vehicle which we also bought from this dealership. Fortunately, we were able to come to terms on the vehicle we wanted. used vehicle which we also bought from this dealership. Fortunately, we were able to come to terms on the vehicle we wanted. More
