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!!

Slidell fishing trip!
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!

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.

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.

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.

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..

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.

Fishing & sight seeing
We came to fish and visit New Orleans and this was a great location to do both. The cottage is cute, the boat launch is great and right up the road (also sells shrimp for bait), NOLA is a easy half hour drive. The host was charming and very easy to work with. The only thing we were disappointed with is that you can’t keep your boat in the water at this dock. The brackish water made for great fishing and we caught both fresh and salt water fish.

Mrs. Gaynell is awesome!! Didn’t catch crabs or fish due to no tidal movement. We expected this. The pier is a long one so be in shape. A sodium vapor light at very end of deck would be a great addition. Very relaxing time. Would recommend!!
