We are a small 50 acre ranch in the panhandle of Florida. Most of our property is pasture. Our mile-long driveway is lined with Oak Trees. We also have a few acres of Mayhaw trees in a seasonal pond. We raise Miniature Tennessee Fainting Goats to sell as family pets. We pasture a half dozen sheep for wool, live with several Peafowl for beauty and entertainment, and a couple dozen Guinee Fowl for pest control and more entertainment. A hundred and twenty-five chickens supply us with plenty of eggs. A dozen ducks offer up a few eggs a day as well. You can pet the goats and Baboy, our Potbellied pig. Walking in the pastures offers a glimpse at the local variety of flowers, birds, and insect life. Stay away from the dozen bee hives we watch over. This is a very quiet and welcoming place. We do have three Great Pyrenees gradian dogs roaming the property at night. They are mostly quiet but can occasionally spend a bit of the night barking and chasing predictors. Coyotes, foxes, and raccoons are better just off the property. Hang out, relax, read, and feed the goats. Monticello has some great restaurants, antique shops, a well-equipped sporting goods store, and a hardware store. If you are a cyclist, there are hundreds of miles of clay roads through the North Florida and South Georgia countryside. There are very few cars and lots of views. We have some routes to share. The clear-water spring-fed Wacissa River is nearby. Bring your own canoe or kayak, or rent one from one of the businesses at the head of the river. The Aucilla River is also nearby. Both are world-class trips. We can offer advice and guide services. Visit GoldenAcresRanchFlorida.com for more information. We are also a highly rated Harvest Host site.

Fun for the whole family

We had an amazing weekend at Golden Acres. We got a tour of the ranch, visited the country store, and Ken included us in whatever was going on around the farm. The kids got to feed the goats, enjoy a bonfire, and ask a million questions. Our tent was too large for the deck but the campsite was perfectly flat and convenient to a water spigot. We had a great time and can't wait to go back.

Fun and peaceful

Golden Acres was so beautiful and charming, and Ken was super accommodating. We stayed there for two nights with our tiny house and it was very peaceful and comfortable. We also appreciated the large fenced in area we had all to ourselves so our dog could romp around off leash without worries of chasing the sheep or upsetting the guard dogs (who were very sweet and cuddly for such ferocious protectors). Would definitely return!!
