About this property

Big home Reunions Business Trips MSU Events Lakefront 2.5 miles to Starkville

Deerwood is a historic country estate on a private lake with 151 acres of gorgeous hardwood and pine forest. This idyllic and peaceful setting is perfect for a restful getaway or for lively family gatherings. Situated just 2.5 miles (or less than 10 minutes) from downtown Starkville, Deerwood is also perfectly suited for Mississippi State University events.

This farm has been in our family since the 1960’s. My mother, an antique collector, lovingly gathered historic architectural pieces which contribute to the warm character of the home. Our family was raised here and made wonderful memories both in the house and on the stunning property.

Deerwood Farm sleeps up to 11 people in our 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms. So, everyone has privacy! There are premium beds and linens - 2 king beds, 1 queen, and 5 twin beds.

There are 4 living areas and an outside firepit giving everyone space to relax or watch TV. There are 5.5 baths so every bedroom can have its own bathroom.

We invite you to enjoy our 2 lakes, 3 miles of wooded trails, grilling in the yard, and much more. Our deck and enclosed patio provide serene spaces to enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. If you get a hankering for city life, simply head into downtown Starkville for shopping, live music, sporting events, and many wonderful dining options.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
