Great venue for our wrestling “family” team. Stayed for a tournament and was able to chill and swim and fish after battling all day. Only thing to recommend is bring your own beach towels.
The house was absolutely beautiful. The house was very clean but the vents need cleaned. The pool worked the night we got there but the next day the pump quit working. All in all we had an amazing time and will be back.
The house was AMAZING!!! It's a bit of a hike to New Orleans, but otherwise we couldn't have asked for more. Tons of space for everyone, the pool was fantastic, and the view over the lake was even better than the photos. And there were way more options for great food in Slidell than we realized (shoutout to Palmetto's on the Bayou). Everyone agreed we would 100% stay there again if we come back to New Orleans.
This house was absolutely wonderful. My family loved every part of it from the pool, wrap around porch, and dock.

Great location, great house layout. Need new bathroom towels. Need new cookware Need wine glasses Need to pickup outside of displaced and unused items. Same on the peer.
This home is so beautiful and accommodating my matron ladies. We really didn't want to leave. The home was stock with enough towels and kitchen ware. Can't wait to come back next year.Great Host.
We had a group of 4 families staying together. We were attending a national cheer competition in New Orleans. The size of the home was excellent for our group. We even had a few beds we didn't use. We enjoyed:The pool. The large sun deck was a hit. We noticed complaints about not enough seating in the pool area. That didn't bother us. We were either in the pool or the teens would lay out on towels around the edge.The pier and fishing were also a hit. We caught a crab and several fish.The sunsets are amazing! The lake is calm and peaceful an excellent deck to enjoy your morning coffee.Need for improvement :Several things in the house could use some updating. The toaster barely works, the coffee maker on/off switch doesn't work. Be sure you unplug it after use. Dishes in cabinets from previous guests were not clean. In general the kitchen could use a good reorganization. This is likely due to previous guests just not putting things away correctly.The host is extremely responsive. We had a slight issue with AC on day and it was resolved within hours. Any questions we asked were promptly answered.Overall this was an excellent vacation home and we enjoyed our stay.

Worked well for our large family group. Would have been nice to have more than two recliners at pool. Good a/c. Kids loved pool.
Great location. Essentials are available in Slidell, but you can easily access New Orleans. House was perfect for a crowd of over 20 people. There was great crabbing off the pier.
This lake house was perfect for a large family get away. Room enough for all…inside & out. This was our second stay & will be back. Thank for the memories!
Great accommodations, location. Pool was not heated in advance. Anyone staying there should ask for it in advance as it takes several days for it to heat up.
Great scenic location on Lake Pontchartrain, Slidell was a pleasant surprise to us out of towners, would have considered spending more time in town of we didn’t have such a packed weekend. Not too bad of a drive into New Orleans, but if using ride/share car service just know to look ahead at pricing and budget accordingly.Very spacious, great kitchen amenities and a nice pool. Sleeps 22 but do take note there are 12 beds. Bring your own soap to shower but over all very nice place and good experience.
Awesome property. Celebrated a friend's 55th bday. There 15 of us and no one felt like their personal spaces were being invaded. The pool was heated and water felt great in the 70 degree weather. Property is about 25 minutes from New Orleans. Great views with available fishing.
This vacation property has everything you needed. The communication with owner is great. The house is very clean. The best part is the pool and deck. We will go back next time.
Plenty of room. Beautiful view. Peaceful experience. Nice dock.
