Guest Access:
Guests will have privacy and full access to the entire house with the exception of one storage closet.
Access is via a secure lockbox or smart lock system. Arrival details will be sent once the rental agreement, ID verification, and security deposit or damage waiver are completed.
While the home offers complete privacy, your hosts are just a message away should you need anything before or during your stay. We respect your privacy but are always happy to assist—whether it’s local tips, help with something unexpected, or a quick check-in. Our goal is to make your time here smooth, stress-free, and as comfortable as possible.
Guest Rental Agreement, Security Deposit, & ID Verification
All guests must complete a Guest Rental Agreement, ID verification, and Security Deposit before receiving arrival instructions.
Security Deposit Options:
Refundable $1,500 security hold (a pending transaction, not a traditional deposit)
Non-refundable damage waiver alternative ($50 for up to 10 nights, plus $3 per additional night beyond 10)
We understand that security deposits can feel like an added hassle, so the waiver option provides peace of mind for both you and us, covering common accidental damages—such as a spilled drink or broken dish—without requiring a large hold.
To make this process easy, we use Happy Guest, a secure, app-free platform. You don’t need to sign up for an account—it’s simply a safe website that also gives you a guest portal with home details and curated local recommendations.
House Rules: - No pets. Unauthorized pets will result in a $250 per-pet fee. - No smoking or vaping. This is strictly a smoke-free property. A $1,000 cleaning fee will be charged for violations. - Noise Policy: Please respect quiet hours from 10 PM – 8 AM. This is a peaceful, scenic area, and we ask guests to be considerate of the neighborhood.

Louisiana weather can be unpredictable. While we do our best to prepare, we cannot be held responsible for delays, power outages, storms, or other unforeseen events outside our control. Refunds will not be issued for weather-related events, utility interruptions, or other circumstances beyond our influence. We recommend purchasing travel insurance for added peace of mind.
At The Bluehouse, you’ll find more than a place to stay—you’ll find room to breathe, relax, and feel at ease. Whether you're here for a few nights or a few weeks, we’d love to welcome you.
