Cedar Pond Farms
When Family Weekend lands on the Carson-Newman calendar, Jefferson City fills fast — and the nearest chain hotels are highway-exit rooms a good drive from campus. There is a more memorable answer minutes away: a working Scottish Highland cow farm with luxury barndominium stays.
Minutes to campus, a world from a hallway
Cedar Pond Farms sits just outside Jefferson City, so you're at your student's dorm in minutes — then home to a porch over the pasture instead of a corridor over a lobby. Our elevated barndo suites come with full kitchens, real coffee, and views the group chat will demand photos of.
Room for however family shows up
A quiet suite for two parents; a three-bedroom B suite sleeping fourteen when grandparents and siblings pile in; an entire building for twenty-two when it's the whole clan plus the roommate's family. Everyone under your own roof, nobody sharing walls with strangers.
The weekend beyond campus
Take your student somewhere their friends haven't been: the Premium Highland Cow Experience — two hours in the field with our shaggy Highland herd, brushing, laughing, photographing. Add an hour on the two-acre catch-and-release catfish pond, collect fresh eggs for Sunday breakfast, and send them back to the dorm with gelato from the freezer stash.
Hosted, not checked in
Book direct and the farm dresses your room — robes, a Gelato Brothers 4-pack, fresh-cut flowers — and the people who feed the herd answer your questions personally. Family Weekend dates are published months out; so is our calendar.
