Today, it serves as a one-of-a-kind venue for events, workshops, dinners, and celebrations of all kinds. Its elegant simplicity and sweeping curves provide a backdrop that feels both rustic and timeless.
Step outside and explore the acres of meadows, forests, and wetlands surrounding the barn. Guests often enjoy morning walks on the trails, evening fires under the stars, and quiet reflection beside the pond as the sunset colors the fields. Every season offers its own beauty—from wildflowers and songbirds in spring to golden leaves and crisp air in autumn.

Weddings and elopements
Corporate or wellness retreats
