Beautiful Farm Guest Home

My wife, myself and our two golden retrievers absolutely loved the land. Room to roam for sure and everything we needed was only a few minutes away in town, which has a nice coffee shop and plenty of places to eat. Most definitely coming back!

BEDS

This property is listed as sleeping 6 but the beds are small. The owner did mention it ahead of time. But since listing said 6, we did not think it would really be a problem. I would say it comfortably sleeps 4.

Bliss at Ten Horse Farm

Our stay at Ten Horse Farm is something out of a classic "home on America's farm" movie. Green abundance with fresh air. Scenes only remembered from a painting by Renoir. Long walks on country trails with occasional sights of a beautiful fawn jumping around. Bliss.

Perfectly peaceful

Home was perfect for our fishing trip! Pictures accurately show home except it is much more spacious in person. Location is also very nice as it is literally right off the highway so you are able to get to stores and restaurants very easily. We will definitely rent here again if we come back to Lake Seminole!

This vacation home is a relaxing piece of heaven. I recommend it highly for anyone who is searching for a beautiful, comfortable and spacious home surrounded by country scenery. The walking trails are full of natural beauty and so enjoyable. The sunrises and sunsets are the best! The owner is friendly and more than gracious. We will certainly come again.

The listing is accurate. It’s a farm hand starter. Very clean decorated in a mid century modern style. If you are looking to get away from it all, this place is great. Internet and cellular coverage were terrible at best, likely due to being away from the city center.

Fall Visit to Bainbridge

The house was super-clean and comfortable and overlooked a beautiful grove of pecan trees. The farm's close to town, but feels a million miles away. Frank was very helpful and responsive to all my questions before we arrived. We had five adults with us and we all had plenty of space. PS: It was nice to be able to bring our dog.

About the host

Hosted by W. Franklin Aultman

Host profile image
Franklin Aultman, Proprietor
Franklin was born and raised on Ten Horse Farm. His ancestors bought the property in 1912. The farm has been in the family for 5 generations. After a successful career in advertising in New York and Boston, Franklin and his wife decided to return to Ten Horse Farm and restore it to its former glory. The Guest House has been completely renovated inside and out. Updates have been made to the kitchen and bathrooms. The exterior and interior have been painted in colors selected by a renowned architectural colorist. The landscape around the Guest House, including the immediate grounds, adjacent pecan orchards, pastures and timberlands, is beautifully maintained. The original Planter's House, which shares the driveway with The Guest House, has been restored. The barn also has been restored and houses an array of farm equipment used to operate the farm. What is most memorable about visiting The Guest House and Ten Horse Farm is the abundance of wildlife, the beautiful landscape, the spaciousness and the quiet peacefulness.

Why they chose this property

The Guest House is situated just off the main driveway to the turn of the century Planter's House of Ten Horse Farm. The Guest House offers lots of space for multiple boats and vehicles and beautiful pastoral views of fields and orchards. The entire farm property is maintained as a wild life conservation area and has an abundance of wildlife. The Guest House is very private, peaceful and quiet. It is close to the town of Bainbridge (a mile from the city limit) yet feels away-from-it-all. The location is extremely convenient to the Bainbridge Boat Basin on the Flint River (less than10 minutes away) and to Lake Seminole. The Florida capital, Tallahassee, is a 50 minute drive and the beaches of the Gulf Coast are about a 1-1/2 hour drive.

What makes this property unique

Flint River and the Bainbridge Boat Basin is less than 10 minutes from Ten Horse Farm. There is plenty of space at The Guest House to park boats and vehicles. They are not visible from the road, not only because of the distance to the road but also because of the mature hedgerow along the road. Also, the vehicle parking area behind The Guest House is out of site from the lightly traveled driveway into the property - all of which ensures a sense of privacy, safety and quiet solitude. There are beautiful, well maintained pastoral views in every direction and you'll find The Guest House well appointed and comfortable from the modern kitchen appliances to the mid-century furnishing & art. Ten Horse Farm is a private wildlife conservation area. The wildlife at Ten Horse Farm includes resident birds, migratory birds, eagles, quail, wild turkey and deer that can be seen in the pecan orchard in front of The Guest House frequently at night. Hunting is not allowed at Ten Horse Farm and we actively implement forestry and agricultural programs that support and increase wildlife populations.

Ten Horse Farm is historic for many reasons. Not only was the farm one of the earliest to be established in the county, but many local farming techniques were first implemented here. During the turn of the century, the sizes of farms were not measured by how many acres it contained but rather by how many horses it took to farm the cultivated land. Thus the name Ten Horse Farm.
