About Us
Mablewood Farm is an event and lodging venue nestled away in Southwest Georgia. Available for any event from small parties to weddings or lodging for a large group.
Mablewood Farm has a history rooted in family and farming. The lands have been in the family of Bill Cooper, owner, and the original homestead built in the late 1800's still sits on the property. It has always been a dream of Bill to share his family's beautiful land with everyone. The Lodge was initially intended as a guest house/entertaining area for guest of the farm, but soon evolved to a 5 bedroom lodge style home. When The Lodge was completed in 2014, it became the new home to Mablewood Personal Care Home. Soon after, an overhaul was started on The Barn. Seeing the beauty of The Lodge and The Barn together, it was soon realized that this would be the perfect destination for weddings. A few weddings were held at The Barn in 2017/2018, and it solidified the plans to move forward with the venue. in 2018, Mablewood Personal Care Home was relocated to a beautiful home in Bainbridge, and Mablewood Farm was opened exclusively for events and lodging.
