Wonderful stay and great hosts. We were in town for a family wedding and had our son and his family with us. It was family friendly and very clean, safe, and good location. Definitely recommend for families that don't want to stay in New Orleans but want to be close.
We loved our stay at this adorable bayou house! It was cute, clean, and exactly as pictured—no surprises, just charm and comfort. The location was perfect: tucked away enough to feel peaceful and private, yet still close enough to New Orleans to enjoy everything the city has to offer. A true hidden gem in the bayou—highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with easy access to the city.
My family and I spent two nights in this amazing home on our trip home. The house is perfect, everything was so nice and the beds were so comfortable! We planned to spend a day in NOLA however we ended up coming back early to relax. We will definitely be back here to stay longer!
We stayed at this location for a weekend family getaway. Being raised in louisiana its always a hit or miss with location. This was the perfect peaceful home. Clean and supplied with everything needed for an easy stay. The land the house is on gave it that magical cajun touch. The added bonus was being a mile away from a fun swamp tour that ended up being fun for the whole family. Highly recommend and will def stay again.
Our stay at the house on stilts was pretty awesome! Very clean and new, very pretty location. Saw lots of gators got to do lots of fishing all nearby and airboat rides!!
The place felt like home away from home. It was less than two miles from where our 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration was held and worked out perfect for us. Totally enjoyed the Celebration and our stay.
House was nice and just far enough from New Orleans that you don’t have to deal with traffic but close enough you can go into the city for the day. Would definitely recommend here.
We booked the house to visit family for Christmas and didn’t use it for much more than having a place to shower and sleep. That said, the house is fully stocked with utensils, cookware and dinnerware for those that want to prepare meals. The house is very nice inside and out and we had a comfortable stay. We would definitely book again.
House had everything we needed. We have been in town to fish with Big Dog Fishing Charters and they recommended your place for Us to stay. Very nice, super clean and all we could ask for. Thank you and your town for showing us such a great time!
