At Stone Gables Estate

Stone Gables Estate is both honored and privileged to come alongside Brittany’s Hope, a nonproft organization dedicated to aiding abandoned children around the world.

Brittany’s Hope helps unite special children with loving families by providing grants to help reduce the financial barrier of international adoptions. For the beautiful and unique children who still wait, it provides a nurturing environment with access to warm meals, clean water, a safe place to sleep and most importantly, unconditional love.

Although Ironstone Ranch is a for-proft organization, all net proceeds are donated to Brittany’s Hope. Having your corporate or nonprofit event at “The Barns,” helps save the lives of children all over the world.

You can go above and beyond! We invite you to visit Brittany’s Hope online at www.BrittanysHope.org to learn more about their mission.

Ironstone Ranch | Main Barn

The Star Barn Complex

At Ironstone Ranch and The Star Barn, corporate events are our specialty. Conducting your corporate meetings and events with us will be a positive, professional experience. We offer multiple venues and options that comfortably accommodate any size group. We are a family-owned, faith-based division of DAS Companies Inc., located in Palmyra, Pennsylvania. We call ourselves the “caretakers” of approximately 275 acres of pristine landscape including a working horse ranch. Historically, it is a place where Abraham Lincoln’s Funeral Train as well as the train carrying the Liberty Bell once traversed on the ancient railroad bed. We now welcome The Star Barn Complex, a page out of history from the Civil War era.

The restored 1860’s Main Barn is set up with its own commercial prep kitchen and ADA facilities. It is climate- controlled and extremely versatile in its varying functionality. State-of-the-art technology is available with a complete menu of auxiliary multi-media services. Both formal and casual functions can be superbly hosted in the Main Barn or the beautiful Mini Barn.

Tents may be rented and implemented on the scenic pasture land in front of the Mini Barn. It is an ideal location for company picnics, inflatable rides and outdoor social events.

A full-service catering company is available to assist in creating the perfect menu for your special event.

Our fully restored “country chic” 1860’s Farmhouse is available to rent for corporate speakers, parties or retreats. This charming old homestead can sleep up to 8 people.

Since Ironstone Ranch is a working horse ranch, we offer professional trail rides for special needs, inexperienced and advanced riders. Hitch rides and tractor wagon rides can be facilitated for larger groups, ending with a campfire.

The Star Barn is recognized as one of the most photographed and

artistically painted barns in America. This grand architectural American

treasure of Gothic Revival craftsmanship is an iconic window into our past.

We have meticulously moved it, and will restore and repurpose it with you

in mind. The Star Barn Complex structures will be restored to their

authentic, late nineteenth century appearance and masterfully rebuilt

using local craftsmen with expertise in the art of period restoration. Each

building will be rebuilt and showcased to reveal their 1870’s glory, allowing

them to retain the distinction of being part of the most recognizable barn

complexes in the country. This complex is entered in the National Register

of Historic Places. The Star Barn Complex sits as part of the 275 acres that

encompass Stone Gables Estate of which Ironstone Ranch is also a part.

The Liberty Spring House is located on the bank of Lake

Liberty and situated in front of The Star Barn. This is a working

spring house that is continually utilized to fill the pond and

serve as a scenic guest house. It boasts a slate roof, cupola,

and a spire supporting a magnificent weathervane. It’s interior

is simply “dreamy.”

Stone Gables Estate is truly a pristine slice of God’s creation. The serenity and peace that our guests

experience on the ranch is something that money cannot buy. As the caretakers (stewards) of this

amazing property, it is both our honor and privilege to share this gift (which God has entrusted to us),

with you — our very special guests.
