Sandy Creek Barn is a 6,750-square-foot restored wood-beam barn situated within Reynolds Lake Oconee, a 812-acre community in Greensboro, Georgia. The original structure was built between 1820 and 1840 by Gideon Widemire, a Quaker farmer and lumberman from Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, using large Eastern hemlock timbers hewn in the English style. Nearly two centuries later, the barn was relocated and reassembled on the property, where it now overlooks a 44-acre stocked lake and a two-story boathouse. The barn's architecture anchors its appeal as an event space: a gabled roof, exposed hardwood beams, rugged stone accents, and a covered terrace with a stone fireplace and a lakeside firepit. Inside, the venue is equipped with a gourmet kitchen, an antique saloon bar, and an outdoor grill and event porch. Sandy Creek Barn accommodates up to 250 guests and is available for weddings, corporate functions, private parties, and intimate concerts.

The 18-hole George Cobb-designed golf course, two resort-style pools, tennis courts, and sports court round out the property's amenities.
