The Clubhouse · Horse Farm with a lake view : The Clubhouse

Completely renovated in 2019 (with updated AC unit in 2020!), this converted barn might be our most impressive dwelling. The “Clubhouse” name comes from its history as the place where young riders would gather on breaks from riding horses when the property operated solely at a horse farm. The Clubhouse is located on a hill with panoramic views of the water and pastures. Enjoy our many amenities, including a king bed, fire pit, deck with a grill, trails, and animals who call this place home.The Clubhouse Cabin has been recently refinished and is our only cabin with a king size bed! The appliances, linens, and most of the furniture are new. This is a wonderful space for gathering with family and friends – the large deck, living room, dining room, and kitchen share a common area. In the basement, the foosball table and comfy couch with own bathroom to boot provide hours of entertainment while others comfortably sleep upstairs.This house feels quiet and private and is surrounded by the sounds and sights of nature. Hands down, this cabin has the best views on our property of our horses grazing in the pastures.There are three other cabins nearby on the property so you will see other guests on the property. The cabins are far enough apart where you will not be disturbed by the other cabins and will still feel secluded while getting to enjoy the peaceful scenery away from the hustle and bustle of home.There are miles of forested hiking paths throughout the farm and access to Narrin Lake from these trails as well. Narrin Lake is a private-access, spring-fed lake with no motorsports. There are parts that can be quite clear and deep (85′) and other sections are marshland. All of the shoreline is natural. If you plan to play in or near the water, we recommend water shoes or other foot protection.We are working on building out a range of experiences for our guests to interact and learn more about the horses that live at Narrin Farms. We are not offering riding lessons or trail rides (yet!), but hope to do so soon. ****Please do NOT feed the horses. The fences around the pastures are electrified and are on at all times for the safety of the horses and donkeys; please do not touch the fence.****You’re welcome to visit with the donkeys, Jackson and Samson, or the cow, Maxim any time! Please do not feed the donkeys (no matter how much they beg, or how cute they look).***Please note, horses and donkeys on the property may not always be outside in the pastures or accessible as it is up to the owner’s discretion. FOR YOUR SAFETY, do NOT enter the barns or pastures without prior approval by Annie. This is not a dude ranch.***Your host is Annie, who also co-hosts with Holly and Carl.

If you have questions, it’s easy to reach Annie or Holly via cell or the Airbnb app.The farm is located in a rural area. Expect a country atmosphere and small-town presence.
