Come Live on the farm

The Farmhouse provides a restful atmosphere in the Starke area. Our three bedroom, two bath home is ideal for families passing through for family holidays, girlfriend getaways, funerals, weddings, and romantic getaways. This home is a collection of rustic farmhouse style with the modern conveniences. It allows visitors to step into the country and enjoy the peace and quiet of farm life. Enjoy the view across acres of pasture from the sun porch or sit in front of the fireplace for a romantic night. Enjoy quiet nights and early mornings listening to the neighbor’s cows. It’s been said “it’s like walking into a hug.”

Built in 1970 this home was part of a working farm for 29 years. Beautiful, handmade barn doors grace this home with classy farmhouse elegance. Come join us for fabulous sunsets across the pasture.

Cozy and clean
The farm is a wonderful home filled with all the amenities we needed. When you arrive to the property you will be greeted by a horse, some cows, and a donkey. You can see they are well taken care of. They aren’t part of the stay but it’s wonderful to come home and see them. The property is well maintained, clean, and spacious. Thank you for having us! We had a wonderful time.

Great Place
This is our second year staying at this property for the holidays and we just love it! The quietness of being in the country takes away all the stress of living in the city. The house is laid out perfectly and the kitchen is stocked with everything you could need. The porch is always a nice place to hang out even in the rain and the back yard has a nice fire pit. The bedrooms are large and comfortable.

Farm Getaway
We had a an Five Star stay. We were competing on Lake Sampson Rowell in a Kayak Bass Team Series. Staying at the Ranch was nice during our practice sessions. Seeing all of the cattle come up to you was relaxing. We even got a Donkey to come up and take some pictures with our Sunshine State Swamp Donkeys Jersey on!! We would definitely stay again.

What a beautiful retreat!
We stayed at the farmhouse during the week our daughter in law graduated from the Univ. of Florida. This home gave us such a beautiful, peaceful place to rest each day & make some memories together. Kim is a wonderful responsive host. She went out of her way to make our stay comfortable. Cannot say enough good things about this place. We do hope to return in the future!

The Best
Wow is all we can say. We’re originally from Levy County with family here in Starke. We came down for my niece’s wedding. We needed somewhere to rest our heads without being too many people piled up and this was perfect! We felt right at home. Thank y’all :)

Wonderful Property!
We were in area visiting family. This property was perfect for the 6 of us. From my 82 year old mom to my 8 year old granddaughter. My granddaughter loved mooing at the cows and petting them and the donkey when they would come to the fence. Kimberly and her husband were just fantastic and the best hosts ever. Would highly recommend this property for anyone.
