Mississippi Luxury Ranch and Equestrian Estate with Lodge, Horse Barn, Arena, and RV ParkGolden Pines Ranch is a 235-acre legacy property located just 5 miles east of McHenry, MS and Highway 49, and only 22 miles north of the white sand beaches, golf courses, and casinos of Biloxi. This showplace ranch combines top-tier infrastructure with natural beauty and unmatched recreational access, making it ideal for a private estate, equestrian operation, income-generating venue, or corporate retreat. 175 acres are in highly improved pasture and hay fields that are fenced and cross-fenced with high tensile electric fencing, strategically placed water troughs, and working pens for livestock, and 60 acres consist of mature pine timber, offering both aesthetic value, shade for the cattle, and habitat for the deer and turkeys. Golden Pines Ranch has almost a mile of shared boundary with Desoto National Forest, a 518,000-acre public preserve known for its exceptional biological diversity and endless opportunities for trail riding, hunting, hiking, and camping. The 4,000 SF custom-built home has 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, vaulted ceilings, elegant finishes, and the master suite includes his-and-hers bathrooms and walk-in closets. Other notable features include a full-house generator, secluded outdoor hot tub, a pool, and manicured landscaping that creates a luxurious outdoor living space.
