The Jacobs Family Story

Our story

A Timeless Setting for Unforgettable Moments

The Barns of Lost Creek grew from a family philosophy that love should be celebrated, connection should be nurtured, and life's important moments deserve space to flourish.

The family behind the barns

Rooted in Service, Compassion, and Connection

The Jacobs family has spent decades building a life rooted in service, compassion, and the joy of bringing people together. Through fostering and adoption, they have opened their home and hearts to many children, building a large and loving family that reflects their belief that every person deserves to belong.

That same spirit of care shaped their work in the world around them. From community service and mission work to supporting neighbors close to home, the Jacobs family has always found purpose in lifting others up.

Their family business, Stillwater Balloons, has carried thousands of guests over the St. Croix Valley, giving people a chance to see the world from above and feel a sense of awe and wonder. It taught them how powerful it is to help others experience moments they will remember for a lifetime.

The Barns of Lost Creek is a continuation of that purpose. It is not simply a property. It is a heartfelt offering. A place created by a family who understands the meaning of unity, the importance of memory, and the power of love shared.

Here, couples are not just booking a location. Families are not just renting a space. You are entering a place shaped by warmth, intention, and genuine care. The laughter that fills these barns, the vows spoken beneath the beams, and the reunions that spill across the grounds all become part of the continuing story of this land and the people who have loved it.

Whether you are celebrating a wedding or marking a milestone, we are honored to welcome you into a setting created from a legacy of love and designed for moments that remain unforgettable.
