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.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

From beginning to end this stay was amazing. The owner worked to accommodate our needs and made the booking process seamless. They communicated and were very thorough. Upon arrival, everything was absolutely perfect. They had everything ready for our stay and had ensured that the property was comfortable upon our arrival. Everything we needed and more was provided to make our stay pleasurable. We loved being able to let our furbabies out to stretch their legs. Next time we are in the area, we will definitely check for availability at the Milk Barn! Thank you for everything!

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!

Awsome place with all the little things covered

Wayles has a great little place and he's thought of the small things that are missing at other places. We took our pup, and it was great for him to be able to explore the fenced yard after a long ride in the car. Will definitely book when we go back to Auburn.

Thanksgiving Stay at Milk Barn

The home was very comfortable for me, my husband, my mother and my adult Daughters! We had to have our first Thanksgiving away from home to see my son play in the Turkey Classic. We were only 15 minutes from Tuskegee University. The cabin came with all the amenities needed for our stay we only bought food. It was cold during our stay but the home had many blankets. We will be back within our family.

Great space

This is one of the neatest places we have stayed. Very clean. The beds were comfortable. There is a lawn for croquet, there is even a set provided. We had a grand time. Perfect for our women’s slumber party. Very well done repurposing of a milk barn.

This was the perfect spot for my husband and our 2 daughters to get a good night's sleep while moving our 3rd daughter back to school for her junior year! We loved the eclectic decor (OCMS, Neil and Lead Belly!) and all of the thoughtful extras provided by our host! We WILL be back!

Weekend getaway

Came to town to visit our daughter, who is a student at AU. This is a wonderful place to stay, unique and comfy. It was only 10mins away from where she lives. We loved every little detail in this renovated milk barn. Our 2 mini aussies enjoyed the fenced in yard and the openess of indoors so they could keep watch on everything without getting up. Wayles is very attentive and a wonderful host. We will definitely be back.
