Beautiful, quiet location.

We throughly enjoyed our stay at this cottage. The property has beautiful live oaks and plenty of wildlife to watch while sitting on the porch. The house had everything we needed, with a Keurig, washer and dryer being the most important amenities for our family. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds that I have ever slept on. It is a very easy and rather short drive from Lake Charles. We had never stayed on the eastern side of the lake but we enjoyed exploring the area and finding new places to go crabbing that weren’t crowded. Angela was very quick to respond with any questions. I will definitely keep this cottage on my list of places to stay in the future.

We had such a wonderful time staying at the cozy cottage. It is EXACTLY as pictured and it is indeed cozy yet spacious. Our trip down south was for the purpose of going crabbing in the Gulf of America and our hosts were kind enough to have a propane burner and pots available to us for boiling our catch. We were able to meet the hosts and enjoyed speaking with such good, down to earth people. The cottage was clean and tidy and had all things available that I would have in my own home to enjoy. We wanted for nothing. We are already talking about planning another trip next summer and we will be working it around the availability of this cottage. Definitely worth the rental!

Needs a Real Deep Clean

Could be a great place. Booked 5 nights.Everything tidy and in order, but NOT clean. Arrived late at night due to flight delay, so stayed first night. Floors not vacuumed/mopped, cobwebs everywhere, thick dust on ceiling fans above beds, bedside tables had hairs/dust, lamps/ lampshades covered in thick dust, bathroom sink covered in toothpaste spit, toilet had urine stains on it, bathmat really dirty, and dirty linens left on the floor in master closet. Asked owner to do a deep clean, and stayed elsewhere on second night. Asked if we could show them in person our concerns, but was unable to, due to their schedule. They were very pleasant via phone/text, and we thought would address our issues. Arrived back on 3rd day, stayed that night due to family wedding reception down the street. Bathroom sink was cleaned, but toilet still dirty, floors not mopped, no dusting/ deep cleaning done. Only stayed on night three due to not wanting to drive after celebration. Got another place for nights 4 & 5. Asked for a partial refund. Got no response, which was disappointing. The property needs a professional cleaning crew. Owners had personal issues to deal with, for which we really hope everything turned out for the best.
