Super unique place in the woods. Loved swimming in the river. The home could use a little bit of upkeep, but overall the stay was lovely and fun.

Lovely property nestled in a quiet and serene location. My friends and I had a lovely time and the host is very friendly and helpful. The only thing I would suggest is some slight maintenance of the property. Several things are slowly falling into disrepair from age. Otherwise, it is a nice place to stay!

The property was wonderful. We enjoyed hiking, making fires in the fire pit, exploring nature trails and our favorite spot was down by the river where we fished and waded in the water. We have 3 small weiner dogs and they loved the property as well. Everything was excellent. Well worth the stay and we will definitely be back.

This was a very magical place to stay--unlike any other place we have stayed before! Very peaceful and quiet! We enjoyed our stay very much and it was hard to leave. The host Marcus' communication is excellent and he offered for us to reach out for any suggestions on places to eat, attractions in the area, etc. Thank you so much, Marcus, for sharing this special place with us and others!

The home was very clean and well maintained. Our dog Max is a senior, like the both of us, the elevator worked out great! The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans and spices. We loved the peaceful setting, would love to visit again in the Summer.

Nice quiet property. We stayed for the weekend, able to take a short trip to Covington/Abita but still stay away from any city feel. Owner was great to deal with.
