About the venue
Welcome to The Barn at Silver Oaks Estate, a venue rich in history and lovingly restored. Originally known as the Winthrop Lodge and Cottages, and later as the Maranacook Feed Barn, this charming property served as a summer retreat and community gathering spot in the early 1920s.
In 2015, Gene and Veronica Carbona, longtime local residents, recognized the potential in the neglected site and embarked on a restoration project. Their efforts transformed the abandoned pastures into a picturesque, 12-acre waterfront venue. Today, The Barn at Silver Oaks Estate is an award-winning event space and a family-run business that supports the local community through partnerships with local vendors, including florists, caterers, and musicians.
At The Barn at Silver Oaks Estate, every detail is thoughtfully crafted to create a memorable experience, and every event is a testament to the passion and dedication of the Carbona family.
