About this property

Private Country Farmhouse Just Minutes From Auburn University

Located just 7 miles from downtown Auburn and Auburn University in the sleepy historic town of Loachapoka, this house is ideal for families coming to tour the University, sporting events, graduation, or for a simple country getaway. The MilkBarn Guesthouse was originally built in 1940 as a cow milking barn. Fully renovated in 2017 as a guesthouse, it has a full kitchen with all new appliances, heart pine countertops, gorgeous bathroom with a clawfoot tub [please note this tub has a shower hose feature but no walk-in shower] sleeping loft, wifi, and cozy living space with electric fireplace console. Updated on the inside with an old Alabama feel. Decorated with framed show posters and art by local artists. Large, fully fenced-in yard with locking gate. Plenty of parking. We love dogs... ask about our pet policy! Sleeps 6, open floor plan, private, and peaceful. Owner lives on adjacent property with a shared drive. Very peaceful, yet convenient to charming Auburn and less than 5 minutes from University Staion RV Park. Minutes from the Auburn University Vet School.

Beautiful place, not really for us as we are old and I snore, but perfect for a family of an Auburn student. Fenced yard is big enough for a viszla to run. Close enough to town yet feels rural

65th Birthday Celebration

“Extraordinary Friends” coming from GA and AL met here to celebrate one of our friends turning 65. The milk barn was the perfect spot for us to hang out and visit with one another. What a cozy and cute place! We all slept so well last night and enjoyed coffee on the deck this morning. The host was so easy to communicate with and left such thoughtful details and extras throughout the house. We’ll be back!

A Delightful Gem

Milk Barn is a charming guest house, outfitted with every convenience a guest could want or need! The ambiance is warm, welcoming, artsy and like home. My husband and I, and our pug Sammie stayed here this past weekend while attending our oldest son's graduation from Auburn University. Wayles is excellent at communicating, check-in and check-out were a breeze, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will recommend it to others.

Attention to Detail and Very Clean!

The Milk Barn is such a great property! It’s a perfect place to get away and unwind. Whales has thought of every way to make her guests feel comfortable and at home. Our boys (Havanese) travel with us everywhere so a space which accommodates them is very important to us. It was perfect-a huge fully fenced-in yard made for a worry-free stay for them as well! We loved the decor and personal touches! Thank you for sharing your guest home!
