Goat House Farm is a 501(c)3 owned micro-farm in a rural area of Tallahassee on the beautiful Lake Talquin. The farm has its humble beginnings in the summer of 2015 with four acres, four goats, and four chickens. Founded on the love of animals and a passion for sustainability, we remain committed to compassionate practices and the most natural care of our land and animals as possible.
As stewards of the land and herd, we believe we have a responsibility to share nature's blessings. We offer several agritourism opportunities on the farm, from farmstays to day visits. Our primary program is to serve area youth with agricultural education and the opportunities to work with our goats. All proceeds from bookings go toward our programming.
Please note that February and March is transition time on the farm when we are planting new pastures and working on projects so photos might be different during those 2 months!
It is our goal to create a space where our visitors can have fun and learn about the animals who share that space. We also strive to serve as a valuable resource for first time goat owners. To support that endeavor, we sell specialty cottage goods and natural goat milk products. We also sell raw goat milk (for pet consumption only, as per Florida law - Master Feed License #ZOO406).

Back in 2014, this was 40 acres of forgotten, overgrown Panhandle woods. Less than a year later, in 2015, we added the neighboring 40 acres — together, the 80 acres of thriving longleaf pine, orchard, and untouched wetlands you get to camp inside of today.
With guidance from the Florida Forest Service, FWC, IFAS, NRCS, and a sharp-eyed private forester, we built a management plan to bring this land back to its native state. Twenty-five thousand pines and more sweat equity than we can count later, it's finally ready to share.
Wander walking trails through planted fields alive with deer, turkey, and songbirds. Watch the light shift over quiet wetlands. Fall asleep to real silence — broken only by whip-poor-wills and, occasionally, a tractor.
We're tucked into a quiet corner of the Florida Panhandle, close to Torreya, Three Rivers, Seminole, and Florida Caverns State Parks, plus the Lake Talquin State Forest — a perfect basecamp for paddling, caving, and hiking.
Camping options: two full-hookup sites for RVs or campers, three RV sites with power and water, and one true boondock site — no hookups, but plenty of room for an off-grid, self-sufficient rig.
A few honest notes: this is a working farm, not a manicured resort. During the rainy season, the grass can get a bit long between mowings, and you'll likely see (and hear) tractors and other agricultural activity — always outside quiet hours. If you love land that's alive and working, you'll feel right at home here.
I'm usually around and happy to show you the property and share the story of how it came to be — and if I'm away, my cohost will gladly do the honors. Either way, come stay a while, breathe some pine-scented air, and see what over a decade of dirt-under-the-fingernails

I can’t recommend staying here enough. My husband, my daughters, and I spent a week at Joe’s, and I wish we could have stayed for two more- it was the best family vacation ever! The house is set up with everything you need to stay more than comfortably, and the bathroom was like a little spa. Everything was perfectly spotless, supplies were ample, the ac was so nice and cold, and the bed was so comfortable. I can’t say enough about how wonderful the host is. He is one of the nicest and most interesting guys you’ll meet- his hospitality is what made our trip so special to my family. His knowledge of the area, and fishing expertise is invaluable- definitely reach out to him about booking a fishing trip if you stay at his place. 10/10 experience- we were already planning our next trip before we left!

Weekend Trip to Shell Island Fish Camp and RV Resort
Cute and quiet little fish camp. I had to be in Tallahassee for a night Saturday and was looking for something inexpensive and off the beaten path. Not only did this check those boxes but gave me a nice little intro into the quiet beauty of St. Marks. I'll definitely come back and next time, with my boat!

We have stayed here many times and this was our third visit bring friends. So far everyone we have brought has loved it too! Air conditioned sleeping space and a safe place to have a fire that is more quiet than many state parks we have camped at. The goats are precious and very well taken care of. You can tell she loves them all. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Goat House Farm
This is our favorite hip camp in Florida. We bring friends with us and put them up in the cottage because it is swanky rustic! Even our city friends from Atlanta loved it. The bed is super comfy, and it's always clean and welcoming. The farm is snuggled into the forest and you can feel it, it's wonderful. The goats are friendly and know they are loved and you can feel that too. We did learn something new this time: don't wear cut off shorts with strings hanging unless you want even more attention! We highly recommend!

Great place to retreat and relax!! The cabin had just enough room for the three of us. The amenities were good, although it could use a stronger AC. Also, another bedside lamp could improve the lighting for reading. The goats were a delight, and Toby the protection dog was a real sweetheart. The chickens reminded me of when we had our own. Overall, great place to stay for a getaway.

Lovely stay in the coop! The bed was SO comfortable, the goats, chickens and Toby (dog) were so cute, we had a lovely time overall. Will note the compost toilet was very full and wet, not for the faint of heart. As someone who has used many a compost toilet, i found this one tough! I think more substrate was needed. We ended up using the dollar general bathroom that was 10ish mins away. Regardless, highly recommend staying here, lovely and relaxing atmosphere very close to all Tallahassee has to offer. Also make sure to bring coal for the camp grill!

1 night at Goat House Farm
The coop was a perfect little size for a solo traveler. I stayed on a cold night and it was warm and cozy. There’s a little trail close to the coop that goes down the hillside to the lake. The goats were so cute! I walked back for just a little and they were all so funny and friendly. I enjoyed my over night stay and felt very safe but secluded when I wanted to be.

Weekend Trip to Goat House Farm
The property location and goat education is worth way more than the stay price. The coop was a good place to say you are camping without having to drag your own tent out. There are the bare necessities that are better than roughing it. You have a plug, bed, space heater, window a/c, screened windows, and small table. The woods right next to the property have state forest trails and the lake.

Gray farm and lived the goats and their protector Tahoe. A great playmate for our pup Bailey after a long car ride.
The Coop was quaint and quiet. Felt very safe with Tahoe on night duty. We loved our cinnamon sourdough loaf and soap!
Roosters crowed in the morning- not the best at telling time 😊but sweet nevertheless. All the animals were friendly. Got to see several newborn goats!

We had the absolute best time! All of the animals were very friendly and the Coop was adorable and perfect for us. It’s right by where you park your car and right by the bathroom/shower. The A/C works great and the bed and bedding was so comfy that we didn’t want to get up! The common room and fire pit area were gray also. There are barbecue grills to use and places to sit outside as well as a microwave, coffee area, TV with an Xbox and couches to lounge on. The property is right on the lake with plenty of woods to explore. I wished we lived closer so we could volunteer, I really can’t say enough about it and loved this experience so much!

The cottage was so absolutely perfect! Paula was an amazing host and thought of literally everything. My mom and I stayed for 5 nights and by the end we felt so recharged. Everything about the cottage was so thought out from the decor to the design of the sanctuary! The screened porch was favorite place to lay and listen to the waves crash every night! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to relax and recharge.
