About this property
It's a place that attracts happiness.
Locals know about the historic Bare Farm and its beloved Cabin on the River.
Many a wedding party has bumped down the dirt road to witness vows below its stained glass windows.
There have been festivities, a time or two.
Some folks tell the story of a dog that went tubing and a grandmother who parked herself on a lawn chair in the river to watch. There was a grandfather who danced till dawn, went home to feed the cows and hurried back to catch the last song.
Just 3 miles from historic Lexington, the Cabin sleeps 8, with two full size beds in one room, a queen size in the other, and a king size mattress on the floor in the loft.
There's a fully equipped kitchen facing a stone fireplace in the large main room.
There are old iron beds and hand made quilts. There's a glider on the porch where you might want to sit in the mornings to drink your coffee and watch the fog rise off the river.
Some say laughter still echoes through the trees.........
Peace and tranquility: If you are looking for a place to renew your spirit....the Cabin on the River at the Bare Farm is it.
