Fantastic!

We had an amazing time! Thanks for being so accommodating and communicative. We had a really relaxing time watching the sunset. It was so nice to be able to go into town but come home back to a nice quiet, comfy house.

Great place to stay

Wow, what a great place to stay when your looking for a clean, fun place to vacation or just relax. The owner, Mrs Gaynell met us and was wonderful and very helpful in the places to visit while we were there. I’m hoping we can stay here again in the near future.

Great Fishing Camp

This property on the lake had everything a fishing camp should have and the location was located close to everything. The sunsets on the lake were amazing! The camp is fully stocked with all the basics and the owner was very accommodating and a pleasure to work with.

Great trip on the lake

The house was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The outdoor space was amazing with great views of the sunset. Fishing on the dock was fun even though it was cold. So close to the boat launch for boating. Also communicating with the host was easy and quick. Hope to go back again.

Just what we needed

It was the perfect place for a guy's weekend on the water. Plenty of room for us to sleep and hangout. We rarely left the house because we had everything we needed and enjoyed pulling chairs out to the dock and watching the sunset over the lake every night. Will definitely come back.

Spring Break Trip

Great spot to stay and go to all the Louisiana activities. We chose this home because it was on the lake and my teen son loves to fish. He caught several fish and a dozen crabs too. It was also a great central spot to be able to go to New Orleans, plantation homes, swamp tours and horseback riding and charter fishing. Good restaurants nearby if you don’t want to cook or just want good seafood. The host is wonderful. She remedied a small problem that came up during our stay and checked on us afterward.

New Years Eve

You just simply can not find a better place to stay. The pier is so nice. The house is cozy and comfortable and very very clean. We felt very much at home there. The owners are so nice and attentive to your every need. It was amazing didn't want to leave , and will defiantly be back If you get a chance to stay New Years Eve do the fireworks on the lake are awesome. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us!!!

Great house on Lake Pontchartrain

Just got back from three nights in the heat of August at this lovely house on Lake Pontchartrain. Gaynell (owner) was very friendly and accommodating. My son and I enjoyed fishing at night on the lights and we caught lots of different species of fish - and some really big garfish too. We also caught several large crabs of the pier using the nets provided. We had nice boil the last day we were there. I recommend this place for a relaxing get away..

A Dandy Time

The house was great and the owners were also great. Both exceeded our expectations. We caught about 50 crabs from the traps and nets provided and around 15 fish from the dock. My wife and I with our 5 children and grandma had plenty of room and space. Family friendly town making this the best family rental I’ve experienced yet. Well worth the drive from Georgia we will be back.

Excellent time on Lake Pontchatrain

Clean, comfortable and cozy. So much outdoor seating and great views rain or shine, day or night. Unlike some places we have stayed, the cute kitchen was well stocked with everything including coffee filters, basic spices, sugar, flour, etc. The view from the decks at night and during the lightning storms were amazing while swinging on the porch swings. You could even do some crabbing and paddle board from the private pier! Gaynell was a great communicator and very responsive. We could not have felt more welcome!! Amazing! Her notebook of information was super helpful for all things local. Wi-Fi was strong enough to work remotely. A really relaxing stay! We HIGHLY recommend. Thank you, Gaynell😊 We will definitely plan to book again!!

Great Stay and wonderful host

This property was perfect for our trip. It’s close to the interstate and convenient to restaurants, groceries and shopping. The property has plenty of space to just sit and enjoy being with family and friends or go out on the pier to fish and crab. My nephews had a ball trying to catch crabs and fish. We hosted a crab and shrimp boil for our family and friends and had everything we needed to make the event a huge success. The house is well stocked with pot and pans, serving trays and utensils to put on an event for over 20 people. Even with the temperatures hovering around 95, the constant breeze off the lake and covered seating kept it comfortable to sit and enjoy being on the lake. So if you want to experience a southern tradition of “Going to the Camp” to make family memories or have a “Fais do-do” than this is the place for you.

Crabbing Camp

I cannot say how much fun we had at this property! It’s exactly what I was looking for after our Orange Beach trip got cancelled due to Sally! I can honestly say, I’ve been to the beaches more times than I can count and I enjoyed this crabbing/fishing trip than most of them! It was four women and we were easily able to crab and fish from this pier! We practically lived on the pier!!! The camp did not disappoint and was exceptionally clean! Now, the best part of this review is about the property owner! She was sooooo amazing to talk to and work with. She was always available for any questions we may have had (even what to do when my cousin caught a stingray)!!! They had plenty of traps there to use for crabbing as well as a holding tank! I even went and bought a few of my own! But, the best part is they allowed us an extra night for free because they felt so bad about the weather, which wasn’t that bad, just drizzly and no sun! Thanks again for such a wonderful weekend with my sister and our 2 cousins! I brought a lot of crabs back, being only 1 1/2 hours away and we had a fantastic crab boil in Baton Rouge!!!! Our neighbors were jealous!!!

Perfect place to recharge and close to New Orleans

We had a great time in this house. We watched sunrise every morning. I enjoyed my coffee at the porch while my husband and the kids were fishing at the pier. They had fun catching all the catfish. All of the catches were 2+ lb. The house is right on lake side. But there is no water traffic. You can sit on the porch or pier all day long peacefully, and to absorb the serenity. The neighborhood is very quiet. Since that is not a pass thru street, it seldom has any traffic. The house was very clean and spacious. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen had all the cooking utensils and seasoning. We just needed to get grocery from Walmart (about 15min away). We cooked breakfast every morning. Danielle, the host, was super nice and friendly, you will get the true southern hospitality from her. She went above and beyond to make sure we got everything we needed to have a great stay. I told her about my kids who love fishing, she offered us some shrimp baits. They caught so many catfish. They also tried crab traps, but no luck. Highway 11 is right there. It took us about 30min to go to New Orleans. We end up went there twice. We watched the Sugar Bowl parade, visited French Quarter, Jackson Square, French Market and the 2 National Parks locations (French Quarter Visitor Center, Jazz museum). This house is at perfect location where you can enjoy the quietness and you are not far from all the attractions. And the hospitality will make you feel super welcome.

Beautiful and relaxing

The home was absolutely beautiful. The location was very convenient to stores yet not to close so we were able to relax and fish. Great location for a small family or group. The property owner was extremely helpful. We didn't have to travel far to see parades and the drive to New Orleans was close enough for us to travel on a daily basis but far enough so that we were able to escape it all when we were ready to relax. We will definitely be booking again in the near future.

It isn’t our first time staying here and it won’t be our last! Once again, everything was wonderful! Property is as described. Very clean and maintained. Communicating with property owner is never a hassle. Close proximity to everything. Fishing/crabbing on the lake is great. We love this place and we’ll definitely keep coming back!
