Sleep with the birds, in a cabin aloft in the oaks.
Our inviting cabin, known as the Bird Nest, sits proudly on a lush five-acre property. Inside the cabin is a well-appointed kitchen that has modern tools designed to heighten your culinary adventures: a retro-styled digital Galanz refrigerator/freezer; a French-door digital air fryer/toaster oven combo coffee maker and microwave. You will rest easy on a comfortable queen-size Murphy bed. The full bath is outfitted with a walk-in shower, toilet and sink with a mirrored vanity just outside. A table for two overlooks the deck and pond for when you’d rather connect with nature in air-conditioned comfort.
Step outside onto the upper deck for an outstanding view of the tranquil pond, an attraction to diverse local wildlife that's sure to delight any nature lover. Elegant cranes and blue herons often feed on the bountiful perch and other pond inhabitants. You might even spot deer, rabbits, raptors and many other fascinating creatures in this serene sanctuary.
Anyone who likes to forage will appreciate our seasonal harvests: chanterelle mushrooms, dewberries, blackberries, and huckleberries, all ripe for the picking at different times of the year if you know exactly what to look for.

The covered, ground-level deck provides a half-bath with a toilet and sink setup and plenty of seating areas. Only a few steps away is a charming fire pit/grill along with grill tools and seating. It’s perfect for an old-fashioned weenie or marshmallow roast and s’mores on a starlit night.
Situated on Hwy 43, the cabin is just several hundred yards from a small grocery/gas/deli, seven miles from a full-service grocery store and about a thousand yards from the nearest “dollar store,” and about ten miles from the nearest moonshine distillery. This taste of country living is located conveniently between the lively city of New Orleans and the stunning Mississippi Gulf Coast beaches and casinos, both within a comfortable 45-minute drive.
Beyond offering a delightful stay for travelers, our site could serve as an enchanting event venue for outdoor weddings, receptions, and other get-togethers. A pole barn with finished flooring provides ample space to eat, dance, and be merry. The memories forged here linger long after you return home. Discover the charm of the Bird House Vacation Rentals! Your comfort is our priority.

Such a cute little place for a weekend getaway for two. Everything needed is provided with extra perks such as firewood and a smores kit for that sweet treat fix.
The cabin was cozy and cute. The outdoor lighting was so pretty when we arrived during the night. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed just sitting outside in peace. It's a great place for couples that just want to relax and spend quality time together.
I love this place. The manager is so thoughtful. They provide firewood for the fire pit, bottled water in the fridge and supplies to make smores. The property was immaculate inside and out. I love the deck and peacefulness of the property. I will book again when I’m in the area.
Magic! We loved every single thing about this tidy cute well outfitted peaceful place. So many birds! A fire pit ready to light, s’mores ingredients on hand, so many smart supplies. A lovely getaway.
This is our second time staying here and we loved just as much as the first time. The host is amazing and never misses the smallest details to make you feel at home. It’s truly a little magical little place. Especially at night. We look forward to future visits. ❤️
The home was immaculate and the listing does not begin to describe this beautiful well kept home. The host thought of everything to make the stay enjoyable. This by far was one of if not the best homes I've stayed in. We wanted peace and quiet for my birthday and i got pure bliss. I definitely want to stsy again and would recommend this VRBO.
I cannot over state how lovely this little house in the trees is. We loved sitting on the second floor patio and watching all the nature. They actually put out feeders for the birds so we saw quite a few different birds.
What really makes this place so special is the thought and love and care that the owners put into it. Every little detail was so perfect and amazing. They go above and beyond what others do. We loved our stay here.
The land that the Nest sat on was simply amazing. We woke up every morning to the morning Sun coming from the East - made coffee and sat on the deck and were in awe of God's beautiful creation. The birds, geese, trees, flowers, blue sky, pond, fish...everything was amazing. The Nest itself was spectacular. It had everything we needed and more. It was clean and a perfect size and setup for the two of us. There really isn't anything bad that we can say about our stay at the Nest. It was perfect and the two of you as hosts simply added to the wonderful time we had. Again - thank you for allowing us to stay.
