Creekside Farm
Creekside Farm is a premier cattle farm located in Carroll County, Georgia. The farm consists of 205+/- Acres of fenced and cross fenced pasture.

The farm has many features for improvements. The cattle working barn is 36x150 that includes a hay loft in about 1/3 of the barn and an office in the front area. This barn has a concrete load out, squeeze chute, sorting pens, and holding areas. Next to the working barn is the hay barn which is also 36x150 and is open throughout. An equipment barn also offers additional hay storage. There is a commodity shed that has a concrete floor, commodity bays, and an auger system that feeds off of four 18 ton bins and one 40 ton bin. The fencing through out the farm is mostly field wire or 6 strand barbed wire fencing. Most of the fencing has been replaced over the past 8 years. Each paddock except for the large bottoms has an automatic water tank. The multiple road frontages does not disrupt the flow of cattle through the farm. There are culverts or crossings under bridges that allow you to move cattle under public roads.
The main dwelling is a three bedroom and two bath home with a large carport. This home overlooks the farm and the barns. A second home on the property was built in the mid 1990s. It currently needs some work to be liveable.
The farm has over 13,000 feet along Indian Creek. Indian Creek is a deep flowing, shallow bank creek that can be canoed. Some of the land is located in a flood plain, but the creek does not overflow very often. There is a perfect spot for a bridge that would connect the 75 acre bottom over to the rest of the farm, allowing for travel and livestock movement.
This farm has the capacity to maintain around 80-90 brood cows in typical rainfall years. The warm season forages will consist of Bermuda, Dallisgrass, and crabgrass. This farm will have some Fescue on it, but is limited to just a few areas. This makes a perfect blend of year round grazing when you over seed with an Annual Ryegrass and small grains. A good portion of this farm could easily be irrigated with the pod irrigation systems that are readily available today.
Creekside Farm is set up and ready for a cow/calf operation especially a purebred operation or to run stocker calves. You can look long and hard to find a farm that is as improved and ready to produce as Creekside Farm is. Located less than one hour from downtown Atlanta, 15 minutes to Interstate 20, 5 minutes to Bowdon, GA, and 5 minutes to Ranburne, AL.
