The Tantela Ranch Lodge
The Tantela Ranch, once part of the original Tantela Ranch during the 1950s, which was a working cattle ranch and the private resort of Mr.Tandy Hamilton, founder of the Piccadilly Cafeteria chain. The Tantela Ranch is located on 9.876 acres of beautiful and unique land in Folsom, Louisiana.
The original lodge house is an approximately 2,010 square foot, hand crafted, log cabin-type home situated on land bordering the Little Tchefuncte River, a tributary of the historic Tchefunchte River. The lodge interior features wooden, hand-crafted, individualized ceilings and walls.
The grounds offer an array of scenic landscapes: open fields, a private riverfront beach, an artesian fed, 1.4 acre pond, wooded areas, a small swamp, home to Bald Cypress trees and Wood Ducks. Rows of majestic Live Oak trees line the driveways leading to the lodge.
The Tantela Ranch offers a perfect location for filming movies, commercials, or photoshoots.
The main lodge house has three bedrooms, two full baths, a den, a large, stone fireplace in the spacious living room, and several outdoor patios. The home is equipped with an updated, large, kitchen and dining area. The master bedroom accommodates a king size bed and full bath. The home also has a convenient full-size washer and dryer.
The property is available to the discerning buyer. Please contact us for details or to schedule an appointment for a private viewing.
