Our family has farmed in this part of North Carolina since before there was a United States. Twenty-some years ago we opened an ice cream shop at the homeplace and found out people liked coming out to the farm. Lone Oak is the next step: a place to get married on a farm that is still a farm.
The main barn is built from antique lumber pulled out of the McGill home, raised around 1840 in Cumberland County, and from a cotton gin built around 1900 on a Gillis homestead at the Felix crossroads. That wood is in the bridal suite's accent wall, the makeup counter, the bar, the half-round tables and the chapel arbor. The old gin's tin roofing is in the bar and the bathrooms. None of it is a manufactured rustic look. It is the real thing.
Depending on your date you may see us cutting hay, planting or harvesting, moving cattle, or working with the horses we board. The animals and their pastures are off limits to guests, but bridal photos with a horse can be arranged ahead of time.

What couples say
"It also offers the best value around for the amount of time you get to enjoy the space and all of the amenities included. We never felt rushed."
Stephanie D., Google review
"Because they only book one event a weekend, you have the whole property to prepare for your wedding for three days. We hated to leave."
Jenny P., Google review
"It ended up raining for a couple hours on the day of our wedding and the staff, without being asked, grabbed their umbrellas and started ushering guests in from their cars."
