A one-of-a-kind furniture store, restaurant and tree farm, Pine Tree Barn offers horse drawn wagon rides on the select weekends during the holiday season. A truly picture perfect Ohio Christmas tree farm, it’s a great place to kick off the holiday season with the family. You’ll feel like you’re living out the beloved Christmas carol, Jingle Bells.
Welcome to Pine Tree Barn, an idyllic Christmas tree farm nestled in northeast Ohio. It makes a magical day trip destination no matter the season.
What was once a humble tree farm became a one-stop shop for gifts, Christmas trees, dining and more by the 1980s. Today, Pine Tree Barn is a true hidden gem.
Beginning on the weekend of Thanksgiving (November 23), Pine Tree Barn features horse drawn wagon rides to the tree farm. You'll line up at the picturesque gazebo.
