About this property
The Barn Loft at Catawba Farm - 30 min from the Ark Encounter
Escape to a unique blend of rustic charm and modern sophistication in our stunning barn loft! Nestled beside a beautiful 1 acre pond, the loft offers an unparalleled retreat with captivating views and a tranquil setting.
Step inside to discover a spacious, open-plan living area featuring exposed beams, sleek concrete floors, and large windows that flood the space with natural light. The interior combines industrial elegance with Spanish-inspired touches.
Just outside you can enjoy your beautiful 1 acre swimming pond or take a hike on our 2.5 mile Catawba Farm loop nature trail where you can explore the farm including another stocked fishing pond, multiple Licking River access points and all the many wildlife and scenic views the farm has to offer. At the Patriot Barn(red, white and blue roof) you can visit Jack our rescue donkey, Big T the bull, The 3 Little Pigs and our two Tennessee Fainting Goats Darryl and Donnie. Jack loves apples and other fruits and vegetables, Big T loves to be fed hay and the pigs...they will eat anything.
Keep in mind this is an operating farm and you may see farmers and workers come and go time to time.
If the river conditions allow for it we offer canoe trips or river raft rides without leaving the valley. Farmer Rob the neighbor who owns Gravett Farms can come pick you up. He will guide you to and help you in at a river access point on his property and your trip will finish up at our Licking River access. Approximately 2.5 mile trip
