We had a great stay in Monroe thanks to Cynthia's house. We had plenty of space to spread out and we enjoyed hanging out both in the house and outside on the back patio/back yard. We were in town for family events and so we were able to gather as a larger group and enjoy time together.

We had a wonderful time staying here with our family! The house was very comfortable, spacious, and had plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy. When the AC went out, Cynthia was incredibly responsive and apologetic — it was fixed within the hour, which we really appreciated.The only downside is that there is no WiFi, and with kids plus spotty cell service, that was a bit of a challenge. Other than that, everything about the property was great. We would definitely recommend it for a stay!

Cynthia was a great host. Super easy to communicate with. The property was as stated in the description. We enjoyed the back yard and grilled out one night. The only thing I would suggest in the future is adding WiFi to the house. We were aware beforehand so no issues there at all. Would just be a nice amenity to have. Would definitely book this place again in the future. Thanks Cynthia!

Excellent Find

The pictures did not do the property justice. The bayou was beautiful. The house was very big and roomy for our group of 10. Getting into the house and corresponding with the host was very easy and fast. Next opportunity to travel to Monroe and a house if this size is required, this will be the first house I will look for.

The property has a lot of potential. The house was not clean, hair everywhere, soap scum all over the tubs, fridge was disgusting, cupboards were dirty and the bathroom cabinets had dried toothpaste stuck to it. We had to clean when we arrived. There are no window coverings in the main area. The outside area by the water was gorgeous but getting there was not accessible. The ground stairs are broken up in the back and not easy to walk through. The front yard had a melted garbage can in it and the bushes blocked the view so it was very difficult to back out. Also there is no WIFI. I did leave my glasses there and the owner did mail them back to me at my expense which was very nice.

Perfect house for family gathering

This house on the bayou was perfect for our stay in Monroe. It has everything you need, kitchen utensils, lots of towels and comfortable beds. The view of the bayou is beautiful, and the bird feeder out back brought lots of wildlife to watch and enjoy!

Graduation

The home is very large and well equipped with every thing needed plus many extras in case you forget anything. We attended my daughter’s graduation and were able to cook and spend time together comfortably. I assumed check out was 12 and the owner was very understanding in allowing us pack. The property sits on a beautiful LA bayou which is perfect for morning yoga, coffee, and gathering with your family.. Highly recommend booking here!!!

Absolutely loved the property! The wildlife is very much alive at this location but also very quiet! The host was very accommodating to anything that could possibly arise. However, there were no concerns or issues. We loved the grass pier and cypress trees. I would suggest not getting into the bayou. I saw 2 gators on a morning swim!! Lots & lots of different bird species..... just beautiful! I will definitely return.

About the host

Hosted by Cynthia Montcalm

Host profile image
I live in Monroe and have owned long-term rentals for more than 20 years. Because this home is large and located in a great area, I decided to convert it to a short-term rental after I had positive experiences staying in VRBO rentals.

Why they chose this property

Bayou Shores is a quiet stress with no through traffic. The bayou view is gorgeous. Come and sit on the back patio and enjoy the views. You may see a crane or a heron.

What makes this property unique

The location really cannot be beat! One turn off of Highway 139 and you are in a quiet location with an outstanding view of the bayou. If you like to fish, bring your gear and fish from the land pier. If you travel with your canoe or kayak, consider launching in the bayou and enjoying a tranquil experience. There is no swimming in the bayou.
