The Barn

Peaceful venue nestled by a creek on a small farm in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains.

Elk Shoal farm was originally a hog farm. The Gambrel-style barn was built in 1942 by our Great Grandfather. All of the lumber for the barn was cut and milled right here on the property and the barn was used to house animals and store hay until 2020 when we decided to fully restore it by giving it new life and new purpose. Since the barn already had a rustic chic vibe, we thought it would be perfect to designate some of the space that was formerly used as stalls to be converted into a Groom's Quarters. We added a leather couch, a Smart TV, gaming options, and a custom-built, high-top whiskey barrel table. A large wall-mounted clock was hung front and center, to be sure they'd make it to their ceremonies on time!

    If you are looking for someone who truly cares about your event and has indoor and outdoor space, look no further. Becca and Darren have created a great space for people to come together on top of being incredibly easy to work with ensuring all your wants/needs/dreams come true. The venue design is wonderful and with the evolving vision it is going to be something that can fit everyone's vision. Pricing can't be beat and if you aren't scared to go a short drive from Charlotte you have the perfect space. We cannot say enough great things about them and absolutely adore working with them. Cannot wait to see what amazing events are to come from them in the future.
