Strange Farms started over 70 years ago as a produce farm. In 2006, Burt Strange, Sr., had a vision to build a lake on the property to help provide water for irrigating crops and to provide a great fishing spot for family and friends. Soon after that, we built the dock and invited more friends.
In 2014, we began experimenting with glamping. It started out very rustic, and we slowly added power, water, bathrooms, and heat/AC. People loved it, and groups started wanting to come, so we started what you know now as Strange Farms as a hospitality business.
We love gathering our family and friends and invite you to do the same. We hope to see you soon!
Behind Strange Farms, there is a family. We are buffeted with life’s challenges but continue to be strong and stay unified. Our family is comprised of parents (married 50 years), five adult sons, wives, and grandchildren. We aim to provide our guests with a place of rest, recreation, and restoration. So, for whatever brings you here—a corporate event, a family gathering, a group or private retreat, a meeting with friends, etc.—we hope you leave a better person, refreshed and recharged, because of your time here with us.
the Strange Family
we are so thankful for all of our loyal clients.

“We held our annual corporate retreat at Strange Farms this past week. What an amazing place! The Dock House with Apple TV and a commercial kitchen was perfect for our presentations and cooking for a large group. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you will need. It was cold! But the Dock House was warm and comfortable. The Tents were also warm and comfortable with all of our employees enjoying the experience. The level of attention and care that Jed and his staff provide is outstanding. We genuinely felt like we were his personal guest instead of a short term tenant. I am looking forward to re-booking next year so we can add activities we weren’t able to get to this time. First class operation, first class family!”

“We traveled to central GA with 8 college buddies to relax, catch up on life and play a little…. and mission accomplished. Jed and the team at Strange Farms were wonderful. We stayed 3 nights in the Carriage House… fished, shot skeet and pistols and were fully able to chill and be away from the city. We checked out the Glamping tents and don’t be fooled… the are not like tents… look super comfortable with AC and heat and full bathrooms. The dock house is beautiful… on the water and awesome sunrise and sunsets…. it has a full kitchen and we were able to watch football and it’s a great hang. Full recommendation on this place if you want to get out of town, host and small or larger group and just enjoy the outdoors and beauty of the farm!!."

“Our group of about 30 had an AMAZING experience at Strange Farms. Jed is an extraordinarily kind host, who was both accommodating and generous. He treated our group like family! The “Glamping Tents” were unbelievably comfortable and spotless with beds created in heaven! We cooked gourmet meals in the industrial kitchen inside the Lakefront Dock house and we dined watching the beautiful sunset each evening on the dock. This is a top-notch camping experience that I would recommend to everyone. The staff was kind and thoughtful and left a lasting impression with our team. Our corporate group takes many trips throughout the year, all over the U.S., and the accommodations at Strange Farms has been one of the best that we’ve experienced. A million thank you’s to Strange Farms for having our group! Many blessings for your business in the future! Until next time!"

“Words can’t describe how amazing our time was at Strange Farms. From the beauty of the property to the small excellent details found in the glamping tents, our group arrived in awe and left having experienced a weekend unlike any other. We are already planning a time to see when we can go back. Strange Farms by far exceeded expectations and gave us a weekend we will never forget!”
