About this property

Cottage on a pond, walking distance to everything Cajun!

This newly renovated cottage, with a modern European design, boasts vaulted tin ceilings, kitchen, sliding doors for beautiful views leading to a wrap around porch and dock nestled just a few feet from a pond surrounded by 4.5 acres of property. Wake up to a rich cup of coffee or tea (provided), step out on the porch to enjoy all the sights and sounds of Cajun Country. The pond is a natural home to the blue heron, great white egret, the red-eared slider turtle, bullfrogs, and a few Louisiana crawfish!

We're located only 500 yards from Downtown Breaux Bridge, featuring World Famous Zydeco Breakfast at Buck and Johnny's, live Cajun music at Joie de Vivre Cafe, fabulous dining at Cafe Sydnie Mae's with award winning chef, Bonnie Breaux. Enjoy shopping at gift shops, antique shops, including Lagniappe, a 17,000 square foot antique mall! No tour would be complete without stopping by our newly dedicated Veteran's park honoring all branches of our military, as well as a quiet rest under the shade of the giant live oaks on Bayou Teche, followed by a swamp tour in Lake Martin. Top off the evening with dancing at La Poussiere, the famous Cajun Dance Hall or Pont Breaux's Restaurant!

Breaux Bridge is only 10 miles from Lafayette Regional Airport as well as the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, home of the Ragin' Cajuns! Take in a concert at Acadiana Center for the Arts, visit George Rodrigue Studio to see the Blue Dogs, and take a trip back in time to Vermillionville Historic Village! If traveling from over seas, New Orleans International Airport is just about 2 hours away. It’s convenient for a pleasant day trip to New Orleans as well!

So much Cajun culture here for you to enjoy!

Cute, serene place
The cottage is adorable - perfect for somebody who wants to chill, or would be great for a couple. The pond that surrounds it made it so peaceful. The owner had everything one would need to make it a pleasant stay. Located at the end of a dead end street and within walking distance to downtown. Highly recommend.
