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.

A beautiful place with the most awesome host!

We had a mixup in booking that was 100% my fault, but our host was able to accommodate us, which she completely didn’t have to do. I can’t express how much it means to me that she was super responsive and accommodating! The place was peaceful and perfect, and it’s apparent how much time and energy was put into making this place feel like home. We definitely plan on booking again. My only complaint is that I didn’t get to stay long enough!

Piece and Quiet in the Country

This was a wonderful place to stay. Cozy decor, full kitchen, everything was spotless! The Milk Barn was a perfect setting for a relaxing weekend. The owner was very accommodating and communication was exceptional. We look forward to staying again.

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!

Traveling for the holidays

Wow!!! Couldn’t ask for better host! The guest house is really nice, it was warm and inviting from the moment I stepped in. The yard is great for the pups and it’s fenced. After being in the car all day, they were able to run around leash free! I only wish I was staying longer and not just going through. The home is stocked coffee and hot chocolate with nice recommendations through the house. What an incredibly thoughtful and clean host. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! You need to stay just for the experience.

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.

Definitely For Us

This eclectic property is one of our very favorites having stayed there several times on cross country trips with our dogs. (They love it too for the large fenced yard.) It's not for everyone. There's no dishwasher, disposal, or walk-in shower. But it has character galore, good beds and pillows, a roomy well equipped kitchen and is just very cool. We'll be back!

Rain on the tin roof was a bonus!

We were very comfortable during our stay! We enjoyed being away from the Auburn University gameday crowds but close enough to visit our kids on campus. The host provided everything to make our stay comfortable...coffee, filtered water pitcher, toiletries, nice bedding and thick towels. The wonderful sound of the rain on the tin roof was a bonus!
