Cheer Squad HQ: Steps to Marathon • LSU Retreat
Marathon Spectator’s Guide
Avoid race-day traffic and road closures! Located just 1/4 mile from the Louisiana Marathon route, our home is the perfect "Cheer HQ."
Walk to the Action: A 5-minute stroll lets you cheer on your runner and pop back home to stay warm or grab a snack while they crush the miles.
Family Friendly: Ideal for kids or seniors; enjoy a full kitchen and clean space rather than standing in the elements.
Prime Spot: Steps from the course—see your runner and easily reach the finish!
