About this property

Bon Temps Cozy Lakeview Cottage with Bay Sunsets at Cinnamon Shore South

Welcome to Bon Temps, a cozy coastal cottage designed for connection, comfort, and truly good times. Thoughtfully laid out across 1,140 square feet and beautifully styled, this three-bedroom home offers lake views out front and glowing bay sunsets in the evening, all within walking distance of Cinnamon Shore South’s favorite gathering spots. Inspired by the New Orleans phrase “Laissez les bon temps rouler,” Bon Temps invites guests of all ages to relax, reconnect, and let the good times roll.

AMENITIES: Ideally located near South Town Lake, Neighborly Pool, and South Town Square, Bon Temps places you close to pools, green space, fishing, and dining. The front porch overlooks the lake, making it a perfect perch to watch children fish or simply enjoy the peaceful water views. Nearby, you’ll find the South Town Square restaurant and coffee trailer, adding to the ease and charm of this central location. Family-friendly amenities include baby gates, a high chair, sound machines, and beach towels to simplify your stay.

MAIN LIVING SPACE: The main living area features vaulted ceilings, warm coastal decor, and an efficient floor plan that feels both open and inviting. Comfortable seating includes a sleeper sofa and two armchairs, creating a relaxed space for movie nights or conversation. The eat-in kitchen is well equipped with GE appliances and pantry cabinets, offering seating for six indoors, while outdoor dining for four extends the living space onto the porch. Direct access to porches and the upstairs balcony allows guests to flow easily between indoor and outdoor living.

SLEEPING QUARTERS: Bon Temps comfortably sleeps up to ten guests, with flexible accommodations well suited for families and multi-generational groups. The primary bedroom features a king bed, while a second bedroom offers a queen bed. The third bedroom includes four twin beds, and a twin trundle provides additional sleeping space. A sleeper sofa in the living room adds even more flexibility. While the bedrooms do not have private ensuites, the thoughtful layout keeps everyone close while still offering privacy.

GREAT FEATURES: Guests love the deep upstairs balcony and multiple porches that allow everyone to spread out and enjoy the coastal breeze. A front porch swing and rocking chairs create a classic coastal moment overlooking the lake. Inside, professionally designed interiors shine with original coastal artwork, curated furnishings, and high-end European wallpaper in the bathrooms. Practical touches like an entry bench with hooks, tar-removal supplies, a boot scrubber, outdoor cleanup station, and drying hooks make beach days easy and stress-free. With Roku TVs, photocell porch lighting, and a garage for guest use, Bon Temps blends charm, function, and comfort for a truly memorable stay.

Let the good times roll at Bon Temps, your welcoming Cinnamon Shore South retreat.

6/10 Okay

Beautiful, but convenience + construction didn’t justify price

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved how beautiful the homes are and the scenery really is stunning—there were definitely relaxing moments in a great environment. That said, I wouldn’t return until the construction clears up. Throughout the day there was a steady stream of construction vehicles and the usual disturbances that come with active building, which took away from the vacation feel.Another challenge was convenience. There isn’t much nearby, so you have to drive for almost everything—dinner, drinks, groceries, gas, and even souvenirs. We rented a golf cart, which helped for beach trips and hauling items, but if you’re going into Port A it still adds time and makes simple errands feel like a mission.It also felt like the South area could benefit from more on-site conveniences like Cinnamon Shore North has attempted—although even there, the shops were unreliable. One morning we went to grab coffee at the Cinnamon Shore North coffee shop and it was closed, so we ended up packing up the golf cart and driving all the way back to South.Overall: gorgeous homes and scenery, but between the construction and the lack of reliable amenities, it didn’t feel like the best value for the money. With what you spend to stay here, a stronger infrastructure and more consistent conveniences would make a big difference.

Perfect Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage is lovely- a different lay-out, smaller and cozier in decor- than other places we've stayed in- BUT it kept our family in close proximity and it ended up being one of our favorite vacations at Port A. thank you
