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.

The farm is lovely and the hosts are super special. The house is welcoming, the kitchen is stocked and roomy, the beds are comfortable, and the AC and water heaters are outstanding. The natural setting is relaxing yet the home is not far from a selection of good restaurants. Kim responds quickly to any questions. We had a delightful stay!

Fun on the farm

We were looking for a good place to stay for a reasonable price, in order to attend our daughter’s graduation from UF. We loved the atmosphere, decor and the adorable cows! My teen and adult kids loved making s’mores by the fire pit. We hope to stay again! The kitchen was fantastically equipped and everything was so comfortable and clean.

Excellent Location and Beautiful Property

We stayed two nights for a family wedding. Everything was perfect, and the home is in a gorgeous, quiet setting, while still close to restaurants and stores. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay again if we were in the area.

A home, location, host!

This home was welcoming, clean, organized, well-stocked. Hosts Kimberly and Mike went above and beyond to answer questions prior to and during our stay. "Premier Host" does not do her justice; book this property and you will see for yourself. The location is peaceful and scenic, while yet being very convenient to nearby grocery stores and restaurants in Starke. We had a wonderful time here at the farm!

Paradise during chaos

My family and I left our home due to hurricane Milton. After bouncing around a little, we found ourselves at this property. The stay was amazing! Communication with the host was top notch. Very friendly and welcoming. The house and surrounding land was so peaceful. We enjoyed every minute we stayed. I would highly recommend staying here. We will surely be visiting again. While chaos was happening in our home town, we were welcomed and taken care of by the host and her family. A 100/100 for me!

One of a favorite places to stay anywhere.

We love to travel. Never hotels. Always renting people’s places. Farmhouse is a highlight every year. We come at least twice in the fall for hunting trips. Most years we visit 4-5 times. Kim has always been an amazing host and the house is clean, comfortable and has everything we need. Highly recommend if you want to disconnect from the city life.

A/C emergency help

Our A/C died in the middle of July, which is a major emergency for anyone living in Florida. Our host family worked with us to get us into the house as quickly as possible. They checked on us several times to make sure everything was okay. The house is charming and the view into in surrounding pastures is lovely. Would highly recommend!!
