We stayed during mardi gras. The most welcoming host I've ever experienced! Our family enjoyed time spent in this spacious home. There were plenty of rooms and each one had something special about it. Beautiful wallpaper, a swing(!), gorgeous armoires. We loved the private parking and ease of getting in and out of the neighborhood. There were bugs around the area, but it's the bayou, that's to be expected! We would def stay again if given the chance. P.S. thanks for the king cake!
The hosts gifted us a king cake during our stay.

Nice Stay on the Bayou

We had a wonderful time staying at the residence. The dock was a great place to sit and fish. The yard is large and fully enclosed so our dogs could run around. Close proximity to New Orleans and many other towns. We would definitely stay there again.

Very cute and comfy

This is a very cute house in the bayou. It fit our group of four very comfortably. Tons of space for a group to spread out inside. Around the outside, there are a few beautiful flower gardens, and plenty of places to sit. The host Randal was always available via text, which I really appreciate. Thank you for the lovely stay.

Best Get Away We Have Had

This was the most welcoming host we have ever had. It honestly felt like we were part of their family from the moment we arrived. They were there to greet us at the door, which is something that we have not experienced with any other location we have book through Vrbo before. House was very clean, DOG FRIENDLY IS A HUG PLUS!

Peaceful

We enjoyed our stay, the house and yard was very clean. The fishing pier was very peaceful. Mr Randal and Mrs Tee were the perfect host and were so kind to send us home with fresh veggies from their garden. We will definitely go back for another vacation. It was very nice having a completely fenced in yard for our 2 dogs. I absolutely loved all the flowers. For anyone considering this place for vacation you will definitely NOT be disappointed!
