Surroundings

The Barn Owl Retreat is surrounded by 85 acres of pasture and forest that includes a lake for your enjoyment. Take a break from your creating to be inspired by God's beauty. Lots of hiking and walking paths are accessible to you. If you want to go a little farther off the beaten path you can venture to FDR State Park and utilize their trails. Entrance is just minutes from the barn. Fresh country air does the body and the mind good.

Barn Interior

The not-too-fancy interior will welcome you with it's warmth, exposed beam ceilings and original wood floor. Four can sleep on the second floor, each with their own bed, and share one full bath. Six can sleep in the first floor bunk room adjacent to the scrap room with their own full bath with double sinks. Don't worry. Bunks are adult sized and equipped with your own personal reading light and nook to store your smart phone. We've thought of everything at the barn owl retreat center. The kitchen is fully stocked with all you need including bakeware, toaster, blender and crock pots.

Bunk Room

The bunk room is large and the bunks are so spacious they hardly feel like bunks. "Bunker" down for the night with your own reading light nook and sleep comfortably in the darkness of the morning with the blackout curtains.

Living room

Comfy seating, DISH & a DVD player for your enjoyment.

The dining room table expands to accommodate more if you would like to gab together over a meal.

Relax and read when you need a break from your crafting.

Queen Room

One lucky lady gets the largest room and a queen bed to herself (unless of course your group is bigger than 10 and is willing to share)!

The scrap room in use

Abundant overhead lighting plus an Ott Lite storage unit on each table make it easy for you to see your colors and your images. Each unit has an outlet for easy charging of your smart phone.

Pine Mountain

The Barn Owl Retreat is located in a valley just minutes from the quaint town of Pine Mountain, Georgia. Shops and restaurants abound in this area. Take a break to visit an antique shop or cupcake bakery. The cobblestone sidewalks and fountain square will lure you in. Pine Mountain is also home to Callaway Gardens (Georgia's best kept secret)! Thousands of acres of natural beauty await you. All this and more is at your fingertips, if you would like a break from your creating time. A local guide book will be available to you upon arrival. If you are desperate for a craft chain store, Columbus is only 25 miles away and easy to get to.
