Quiet get away
We stayed here for my son's 21st birthday. It served as a great location for peace and quiet with access to fishing but, also close enough for us to commute into New Orleans and enjoy Bourbon Street as part of the trip. The house had plenty of room and space for all of my kids to spread out and get their own space but also come together in the living and dining areas to enjoy each other's company. There are also quite a few local eats in Slidell that are excellent. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Pictures do not show the problems
ARRIVAL: When we arrived at 3:15 PM the front door was open and the house was filled with cigarette smoke. Immediately reached out to manager. MASTER: milk or food splashed across the TV screen. Blinds and window sills were filthy. We found a pink baby bottle in the bed(under blanket and sheets) which leads me to think the linens were never cleaned after last guest. Closet in master bath was open-this is the place they throw things that guest leave. Horrifying and scary. No trash cans in any bathrooms. Towels were clean but they’re were only nine. *****No extra sheets, pillow cases, towels, or blankets. No wash cloths or hand towels. ***We had to purchase wash cloths and hand towels for our traveling guests. Batteries low/dead for most light fan remotes... No lamp in bedrooms or bulbs were out. Only clock in the house is in the master bath. Minor detail. FRONT BEDROOM BY MASTER: Pests- spiders. Blinds and sills filthy. I mean really filthy. FRONT BEDROOM NEAREST BAR: Very unclean, needs dusting- sills filthy. LIVINGROOM: TV probably has blown speakers- even at a low level it’s buzzes and it’s hard to hear at times. Sticky cup rings on counters by the TV. Blinds and sill filthy. This room is comfortable- and great view- but not clean. KITCHEN: Refrigerator unclean and smelly. Counters/ sink uncleared Toaster sticky and food all over it. Blinds and sills disgusting ***Mold on dishes ***No dish drainer or towels ***Stove was unusable- bad gas smell (scared my guests and they had to air out the house) Burners worked fine, oven was the problem. ***Food Items in the pantry- not ours. LAUNDRY ROOM: best room in the house. SMALL HALLWAY BATHROOM: No trash can Smelly TWIN BUNK ROOM: Missing light bulbs Very, very dirty Sills and blinds terribly dirty Fan/light does not work ****Found left over items in drawers and window sills(fake eyelashes) Not sure what the green stuff was in the drawer- slime maybe. Drawers are soooo dirty QUEEN BEDROOM: *****The mattress was the most disgusting thing- had a very big lump in the middle of mattress. *** No mattress pads on any beds- DONT LOOK UNDER THE SHEETS! Bed was lazily made. Lamp didn’t work Sills and blinds very dirty. VENTS: Really grosThis house is unsanitary. View- fantastic! This could be a spectacular place. A professional cleaning- Some decent linens and some attention to details would be great!!!

Our stay
The pictures in the ad from vrbo are considerably better than in real life. Vrbo said it sleeps 14 but there are only 2.5 bathrooms. The half bath was completely wrecked and inoperable. It is on the dock in the deckhouse. It should not have been inlcuded. I do not think we are clean freaks but a vrbo property should be spotless. We had to clean the bathrooms and the kitchen again. The garbage from the previous guests had not been removed, the air filters were hideous and the compartment filled w dead roaches. We changed them ourselves. The filters were present just not used. There was also a roach issue in the kitchen. There were missing barstools and towels for two people. We ended up purchasing our own towels and wash cloths. The refrigerator was damaged and forced us to take pictures so we would not be blamed for the damage. For the price we paid, I was expecting much more. This was our vacation and the state of the property was embarrassing. The Blue Crab fell way short. I did speak with the property manager, CJ, 3 times. CJ was very respectful, cordial, and apologetic. In the end it was still all excuses. My wife contacted the property manager who was listed in the displayed instruction binder. The binder was not up to date and the new property manager requested that we not follow the displayed instructions and contact him instead. This is very minor but taken as a whole it is part of the problem that needs to be resolved. We do not recommend this property.

Great Memories
Property was great. Cooking hardware (pots and pans) could be updated. We enjoyed the fishing dock in the evenings. Some of the steps going to the front door need to be replaced. We enjoyed the open living area because it gave us plenty of space to relax.

House in disrepair
The home is in disrepair. Half the electrical outlets and fans did not work. The appliances did not work. We had to buy lightbulbs because half the lights were burned up. The docks and the garage were hazardous zooms. Sewage leaks under the house. The last day we had no water to clean up or use bathrooms or take showers.

Hurricane damage left in disrepair
The place was still a mess from the Hurricane. Bottom floor a complete mess, docs unsafe, fishing house no water in sinks or toilet, grills al completely rusted out. May still have come, but still expect a refund of some sort because we paid full price when it was still very much in disrepair. Poor job of customer service for a repeat customer.
