About this property

Entire place

Relaxing, vacation! for 1 or 11 w/fire pit on the river!

5 min from Covington, 40 minutes from New Orleans, 15 minutes from tubing excursions, zoo's & 30 from swamp tours and much more. As you pass over our bridge and meander down the winding drive you let your cares go. The property is healing grounds for most. The vivid forest surrounds you and your relaxation begins as you look into gardens of gardenias, azaleas, camellias, large magnolia trees and fruit trees. Walk two minutes to our private beach. Grilling is a favorite activity while your nestled in the trees watching the sunset. Coffee time is magnificent on the front porch while listening to the birds and watching the squirrels scurry thru the trees. Whether you're here to hike, read a book or family time you will enjoy all the amenities. The kitchen has a drawer full of many favorite herbs. The 2 burner stove with prep sink and range make it easy for 2 to prepare meals. Spacious bathrooms and comfy beds make for a nice stay and restful sleep. If you would like to host a small event please inquire by message. You are sure to enjoy.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Sarah D., Mandeville, LA

Disliked: Cleanliness
For starters, the property is not easy to find. The signage at the road is faded and the LaLa Land sign upon entering the gravel drive is lying on the ground beside a tree. The bridge to access the property is questionable, and the guard rails are damaged, so driver beware. Upon entering the property, it was noted that cleanliness was not up to par, but it is adjacent to the river, so sand everywhere should probably be expected. We did try to sweep, but the floors were some type of plywood and difficult to clean. I wanted to love this property, as I love this part of Louisiana, but there is literally junk and abandoned buildings strewn everywhere. The river frontage/private beach is nothing more than a few feet of water surrounded by discarded sinks, bathtubs, etc. And, on the 2nd day of our stay, campers showed up, less than 30 feet from the river area and pitched tents and started a campfire, which seemed questionable, so we avoided any interaction for safety reasons.
Junk around property.

The property is secluded which was nice. There was a sock left behind by someone else which was a little odd and the floors need replacing, but other than that it was a nice, cozy atmosphere and we enjoyed pur stay.

Covington Visit

Overall, this property is exactly what we expected. It is off the beaten path and in dense woods. This makes for a very cozy scenic stay. It was clean and very quite. And was well stocked with everything we needed. While it does feel like you are in the middle of nowhere, you really aren't. We were able to get to and fro quite easily. Downtown Covington and it's surrounding areas are delightful! We truely had a spectacular time! The only tweak I would make is to freshen the numbers on the mailbox and make sure you check in before dark. We missed the turn for their house and ended up down their neighbors drive way, whose giant dog was eager to let us know we were in the wrong spot. Scary at the time, but a fun story to tell now. We are hoping to stay here again when we come back in October.Thanks to the host for a great stay!!

Excellent woodsy spot for a midwinter respite!

My friends and I spent a wonderful weekend taking walks in the woods, playing music by the fire pit, looking at the stars, and getting cozy next the indoor fireplace and Christmas tree. We were able to prepare delicious meals in the spacious and well-equipped kitchen. Thank you for the sharing your lovely home!

In town for a wedding

The cabin is located near the back of the property. You can’t see it from road. It’s a gem of cabin. Might feel a little sketchy (per my daughter) driving down driveway, but I assure it is NOT! Cabin was clean and spacious. I definitely see staying a weekend here to enjoy the creek area. The sand was a bit aggravating as we were attending formal events, but nothing a little wet cloth didn’t fix. Great stay!
