Goat House Farm is a Star Host
Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.
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).

Come and de-stress by snuggling our goats. These bouncing bundles of joy are guaranteed to make you smile! Beautiful sunsets on the lake! RV sites are limited, please inquire before booking with needs. Do note we are on a dirt road and while we have RV workcampers often, it can be slow going coming in. $10 extra per night for electric. We are a located in a rural area of Tallahassee, along the Florida Big Bend Scenic Byway and surrounded by the beautiful Lake Talquin State Forest. Great fishing and hiking trails and beautiful sunsets. Two Trailwalkers and one Trailtrotter trails are just minutes away. There is also a 10-mile Lines Bike Trail. See trail maps in our photos! We are about twenty five minutes from FSU stadium - straight shot! We love to host parents and students! Great weekend getaway! We provide water, wifi, and fresh fruit for the picking when in season. No electric at campsites. We also have several extras from the farm you can request when you book such as our famous farm fresh biscuits with honey butter, bread, fudge, and goat milk soap. We have a small rustic bath house with shower and a composting toilet. Check-in/Check-out time may be flexible depending upon concurrent bookings! We ask that you clear your campsite by 11am, but you are welcome to spend the remainder of the day hanging out with the goats, kayaking, or just relaxing. Private and group goat yoga classes may be available during your stay. You can also add milking lessons when we are in milk (usually February to September). Unless you are a returning guest please arrive before 7pm. Remember, there is an hour time difference if coming from the west. Late arrivals interfere with our milking and chore routine and we cannot stop milking to show you around. Farm folks also hit the hay pretty early! Please do not book and then tell us you will be arriving late. Thank you. Feel free to message if you have questions! The herd looks forward to meeting you!! Things you should bring: Your camping gear! A Lantern Refillable water bottles Sunscreen if you plan to be out on the lake Bug Spray We are located at the end of a bumpy 3/4 mile dirt road off Highway 20/Blountstown Hwy on the lake. Part of the road is paved, but most is dirt and we are prone to flooding after more than a couple of days of hard rain. We have several cars in the neighborhood that don't have a problem on the road, but - full disclosure! If bumpy dirt roads bother you, our road in is not for you. We - and most of our guests - think it is worth it. We offer a 10% discount for FFA, all goat and dairy association memberships, and 4H, just send your number when you book. Feel free to message if you have questions! The herd looks forward to meeting you!!

Make yourself at home in our unique tiny cottage with kitchenette, private bath with shower, and heat/AC.  Luxury queen size bed.  Tatami mattress for two extra guests included.  Kitchenette is stocked with standard cooking supplies: spices, oil, and condiments.  TV, toaster oven, coffee pot, induction plate, and refrigerator are in the unit, along with kitchen essentials.  There is a microwave in the common area.  We also have a small outdoor kitchen area with grill, stove, utensils, basic cooking supplies (oil, salt, pepper, condiments) and tables. Note, there are no windows in the cottage.  It was built originally as a storm shelter! You will sleep really well with the thick walls and no city lights! The private entryway does have windows that let some light into the room.  Private and group goat yoga classes may be available during your stay. You can also add milking lessons when we are in milk! Unless you are returning guest, please arrive before 7pm  Remember, there is an hour time difference if coming from the west.

Dogs welcome, but are not allowed the pasture.  Dogs are required to be on leash. Please bring bags and clean up after your companion animals!

Note: This is Florida and a rustic farmstay in the forest on a lake.  There are bugs and spiders on the property. One may even end up in the cottage. Due to a previous guest's complaint about finding a palmetto bug in one of our cabins, I thought I should make sure everyone knows it happens!  We love our charming cottage, but you should know this isn't an apartment in the city :) We are located at the end of a bumpy 3/4 mile dirt road off Highway 20/Blountstown Hwy on the lake.  We are prone to road flooding after more than a couple of days of hard rain since the hurricane damaged the road!  We've filled recently the largest ruts with gravel and have several cars in the neighborhood that don't have a problem on the road, but - full disclosure!  We offer a 10% discount for FFA, all goat and dairy association memberships, and 4H, just send your number when you book.  Feel free to message if you have questions!  The herd looks forward to meeting you!!

Many guests have appreciated the friendly and well-cared-for animals, particularly the goats, which add a delightful touch to the stay. The accommodations are described as rustic yet comfortable, with the cottage receiving praise for its coziness and amenities.

    The goat House farm and owner Melissa are an absolute delight to visit. We stayed in the larger of the two cabins and shared the amenity area with the other cabin and tent campers. It felt like glamping compared to tent camping. Full kitchen, bathroom. Nice bed, TV etc. Air conditioning heating. I love that we could play with the goats or even volunteer to do work with them if we wanted to. We enjoyed hiking down to the lake. And we took a day trip over to the caverns. It was a great experience. Definitely would come back!

    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!

    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!
