This is a big year for Okeechobee, Florida, as the city celebrates its centennial anniversary. There is a lot to tell about this quiet community, starting with the land. When they say ranch, they are not kidding. Okeechobee ranches for sale are large plots of land boasting several hundred acres. For about three million dollars you can purchase a ranch with almost seven hundred acres. Folks who live in an urban area cannot even picture such a vast expanse of land.
If a few hundred or a few thousand acres scares you, there are smaller plots of land available. A ten acre ranch is just the right size for a beginner. The land and a cozy ranch house are what you need to experience the rural life.
The area is known for raising livestock and growing agriculture. The vast acres of land are put to good use by the local residents. Ranching is a way of life. If you are going to start as s complete novice be sure to get lots of expert advice. The work is hard, but those who spend their lives working the land love it.
Some of the properties have various structures, such as barns, pavilions and stables. With a plot of land thousands of acres large, you will need a comfortable home because there will be days when you will not leave the ranch. Choose the size you want and choose between agriculture and livestock.
For the more luxurious minded buyer there are lodges with acres of land for all manner of outdoor activities. Your land will most likely have at least one pond for fishing or be near to Lake Okeechobee. The lands are relatively flat and great for horse riding. There will be a pump house for your well water. This is the rural life at its best.
If you are in the mood to be social, the community prides itself on its hospitality. In March 2016, there will be a three day Okeechobee music and arts festival. The line up of musical talent is quite impressive. The festival will have five stages for musicians and performers. This would be a fun way to get to know the area and its people before you purchase the ranch.
Nearby Lake Okeechobee is well known for its fishing, specifically their large mouth bass and speckled perch. The fresh water fishing is top notch. The bass can weigh ten to twelve pounds. Tour guides offer fishing trips, which is a big help to the novice. At seven hundred fifty square miles, the Lake is one of the largest in the United States. It offers wonderful boating and hiking trails. The lake is affectionately called the Big O.
A working horse ranch is another option. It can be open to the public and offer boarding, breeding and riding services. This is a great way to get to known everyone in your new community. Your days will be packed with work, fun and the great outdoors. This may be the best time of your life.
