About this property

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.

About the host

Hosted by Kimberly Miller

Host profile image
I am a former 6th grade science teacher, who resigned to care for loved ones. I love the opportunity to meet new people and make your stay wonderful. I love the life in the country come be my neighbor and sit a spell.

Why they chose this property

This home was owned by a lovely couple for 29 years who decided to down size several years ago. After being loved by various owners we purchased this house to rent to you in hopes that you will enjoy our slice of country life as much as we do. We live right down the road and have our entire life. I think this is one of the best places on earth to see God's handiwork at its best.

What makes this property unique

This home has beautiful functional barn doors gracing it's walls. Reclaimed fence boards that are almost silver, bring the rustic barn look inside. The beautiful bathrooms with wood look ceramic tile shower surround and rain head shower take relaxing to a whole new level. My favorite room however, is the chicken room which overlooks 40 acres of pasture land sprinkled with brahman cows this room is like stepping into Grandma's house. Custom made soaps made especially for the us along with local jam made just down the road make staying with us a little extra special
