About this property

Fishing, Swimming, Golfing, or Just Relaxing

Enjoy the peace and quiet of our spacious, lake front home, situated on a large spacious wooded lot on Lake D'Arbonne. Spend time, sipping coffee, watching the fish jump, listening to the birds sing, or admiring the awesome sunsets from the hot tub on our deck.

For the outdoor enthusiasts - there is a golf course minutes away and 2 major golf courses within a 30 miles.

For the fisherman - Darbonne Lake is a popular man made fish area. Record catches of bass, crappie, catfish make Lake D'Arbonne a fishing haven.

Wide open area nearby appeals to the water skiers and pleasure boater. The State Park close by may appeal to those wanting to hike or bike. Lake D'Arbonne is a sportsman's paradise while being close (within minutes) to shopping and all town amenities.

Our lake house has a spectacular waterfront view and is nicely furnished. The kitchen is fully equipped with stainless appliances. There is an outdoor hot tub for your enjoyment. * The hot tub will only be available in the cooler months, from October-April.*

GOLF, FISH, SWIM, PARTY OR JUST RELAX.....THE CHOICE IS YOURS!

THE HOT TUB IS NOT AVAILABLE , WE WILL UPDATE IT ONCE IT'S FIXED!

Love It

This is our second stay and it checks all the boxes for what was needed. The property manager allowed us an early check in as we were traveling from Texas. The property is always immaculate. The road is very rough with hills, but it doesn't have anything to do with the property. The property has all the amenities needed. I would stay again.

This place was amazing!

We took a late vacation over fall break this year and our family had a blast at the location. We fished, played games, cooked lots of yummy foods, and just had a great time relaxing. Definitely recommend this place for anyone looking to get away!

My family and I had a blast this weekend at this beautiful lake front home. The only bad part was knowing we had to leave. The kitchen and living area is so spacious and great for entertaining. The host was so helpful, and answered my phone calls every time i had a question.

Lovely lake house

We had such a good time at this lake house. Since we love art, we were delighted as we opened the door and were greeted by a red, white and blue metal fish on the counter, the blue and red dog painting, various scenes from New Orleans and the New Orleans Saints. Our grandkids loved "the ballroom". (Pool table). The furnishings were kid friendly and there were toys for them. I love to cook, so I was so pleased to see how well stocked the kitchen was. It had just about everything we needed, including a big refrigerator/freezer and a smaller one in the laundry room. The highlight of our trip was catching fish right off the pier. We were all so excited and caught enough to have a fish fry. The sunset on our last night was beautiful! When sickness came up and we thought we would have to cancel, the owner allowed us to change our reservation. She was friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this house and hope we can return some day.

Clean, beautiful views. The owners were super helpful. We were a tad disappointed that the hot tub was inoperable. But don't let that stop you. This place is a gem. The town of Farmerville is super charming

Unpleasant

The refrigerators was filthy, ironing board cover old and torn, stove wasn’t working probably, bugs coming out of the sink, water leak on the floor, master bedroom closet was filthy, the road leading to the property was horrible, I was told that the road was paved and it wasn’t. I sent the property manager pictures to show what we saw. The owner of the property called me and she was VERY nonchalant, arrogant, sarcastic and rude. She treated me me as though I was untruthful. She was not considered of my feelings whatsoever. I WILL NEVER rent this place again. POOR customer service..
