Clean and spacious quiet setting convenient for fishing. High tide can make it a little difficult to get up and down on the barge.

Awesome Boathouse

Very nice, clean, & spacious boathouse. If you have a boat, you can pull your boat right up to the dock tie off and enter the boathouse back door from the water. Parking in front is great as well, pull up unload your luggage and walk right in the front door. The ice machine on the back dock is a bonus. Overall, this boathouse is awesome, we will be booking again soon!

Awesome Location, Nice House !

This was a great property to stay at for our fishing trip in Venice. The back porch is noticeably larger than the other houses near by. Plenty of room for everyone to kick back and enjoy the wildlife. The ice machine was quick to refill and the fish cleaning table was perfect. Down stairs kitchen, dining, living is nice and spacious. Upstairs rooms are comfortable with their own a/c units. Nice large parking right up to the front door of house. Location is in Cypress cove but also really close to Venice Marina. We will definitely be back to this property for our future Venice fishing trips. The property manager is very nice and easy to work with.

Louisiana Living

The way this house boat is set up is great! Living room and kitchen set up on first floor and sleeping are upstairs. We enjoyed sitting on the doc looking at the scenery and watching a ton of alligators, even caught and released about 50 blue crab. Had plenty of kitchen utensils to use. We enjoyed a day on a charter boat of deep sea fishing with Pelican Charters. Would stay here again in rhe future.

A perfect vacation at an amazing houseboat

This place was even better than what the listing advertised! This was my first time staying on a houseboat for "fish camp" experience and this, by far, has raised the bar for future fishing vacays! The dock on the back!!! OMG! I stayed there the entire weekend when my crew went fishing! I could literally stay there another month and not go anywhere! Great communication with the owner and check in process is super simple. For all who look at this review, the Louisiana bayou is a must on your bucket list. Thank you for letting us stay in your home! We are booking it again, in the summer, for our in-laws to come with us next time!

Mostly good.

Very clean and comfortable cabin. My only complaint is we didn’t have a phone number for management. When we got back from fishing we found a leak in the water line to the ice maker. The shutoff valve was corroded. Thankfully the line was flexible so we just pinched it off. I messaged management through VRBO. By the time I received a reply, we were sleeping.
