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. 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 chicken eggs, specialty cottage goods, honey, and natural goat milk and honey products. We also sell raw goat milk (for pet consumption only, as per Florida law - Master Feed License #ZOO406).

Our property is located on the same road as one of Florida's scenic state parks, which features walking trails and a boat ramp with access to Lake Talquin. Nestled among majestic pine and oak trees, the property boasts a charming antique fire truck and a peaceful small pond. It’s close to Tallahassee yet far enough away to offer a serene connection to nature.

Brown Sanctuary Campgrounds

1 site · RV · O'brien, FL

Tucked away in the quiet, unspoiled landscape of O’Brien, Florida, this hidden sanctuary offers a peaceful escape from the everyday. Surrounded by whispering pines, old oak trees draped in Spanish moss, and wide-open skies, our campground is the perfect place to slow down, breathe deep, and reconnect with nature. Whether you prefer primitive tent camping or a cozy RV setup, our private sites provide space, seclusion, and plenty of natural beauty. Wake up to the sounds of birdsong, sip your morning coffee as the sun filters through the trees, and spend your days exploring the peaceful woods, nearby springs, and scenic country roads. At night, gather around the fire pit, share stories, roast marshmallows, and enjoy some of the clearest starry skies Florida has to offer—thanks to the low light pollution in the area. You may even catch a glimpse of deer, owls, or fireflies dancing in the dusk. We’re located just a short drive from the area's famous natural springs, rivers, and parks—including Ichetucknee Springs, Suwannee River, and Little River Springs—offering plenty of opportunities for kayaking, tubing, swimming, and hiking. Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or an extended retreat, this quiet slice of Florida wilderness welcomes you with open arms. Come experience the stillness, the beauty, and the magic of a truly hidden gem. Disclaimer: Operating vehicles, use of firearms, serving alcohol, rock climbing are all prohibited on this property.

I loved this hidden gem! I was traveling and decided to call it a night and this spot was perfect for me. The host was extremely helpful and led me straight to the spot in the dark. I will be back! Thank you again, Hillary!

The lot is great. We love the privacy and quiet with good fishing and views. We were there during Halloween and got to watch the trick or treaters walk by just before dark. We are already planning to go back.

Weekend Trip to Goat House Farm

We had a great time at the Goat house Farm. I have a Tacoma with a Roof top tent and it was the perfect spot for that. Everyone was very nice and accommodating. All the animals were sweet and well behaved. We will definitely be back with some friends next time!

Weekend Trip to Dead Lakes RV Park and Campground

I've stayed here twice now and I will say under the new management it is a complete 180 from last time. The park is actually kept up with. They were having a farmers market when we showed up. It is super quiet and priced fair. Only issue is they double booked my spot but they had it taken care of within minutes.

Very nice site! Covered is a nice plus in the Florida heat/sun! Full hook up including sewer! Wayne is a great host and answers any questions very quickly. Site is quiet, and convenient to our activities across the bay (we went into Miramar Beach/Destin). We plan to stay here again! Highly recommend this site!

Great place to stay! It was quiet, clean, the tent smelled great which I don’t expect camping. It was just what I look for. Secluded enough to not be shoulder to shoulder but it had all the convenient amenities. We will be back!

What a wonderful place tucked away next to the bay. Our host was very helpful and nice. 2 Adults and 3 kids stayed in both of the glamping tents. The camping experience by far was even more pleasant than we had imagined. Navarre beach and a several night at here will be something we do again. Bring your kayaks and explore the East Bay river. What a treasure!

Definitely will be back again!! Patrick met us and helped us get all setup and made sure everything was good before leaving. Had the best time, so peaceful and private. Never left the site. Caught small bass and beautiful bream. Seen deer and lots of ducks. If you are looking for a restful and private retreat then this is the spot for sure!!

I loved the property. The lot is mostly shaded and the dock/deck is wonderful. It was quiet and semi private. Remember to bring a four wheel drive and at least 30' of water hose with a filter (city water) if you plan to drink. Jennifer was awesome and checked in on me at least twice. I will definitely be booking again.

We really enjoyed the RV spot hosted by Wayne. We didn’t really need for anything, but Wayne was always available if we did. He is a great host. No complaints here. We will definitely consider another stay in the not so distant future. 🙂

1 night at Bay Forest Retreat

What a wonderful experience! This was the perfect introduction to camping for my three-year-old son and me. Even with hot weather and a rainy, chilly day, having the spacious canvas tent made everything smooth and enjoyable. A huge thank you to our co-host, Brooke, who was absolutely fantastic. Her quick and polite replies, along with her excellent customer service, really enhanced our stay. We even received a bonus night for Labor Day weekend, which was an awesome surprise.
