This was a wonderful experience. The location was an easy 10 minute (or less) drive to LSU. Great dining close by. This lovely home was exactly what we needed but more than that the host was exceptional. They had really gone out of their way to make sure anything we could possibly need had been supplied for us. We would not hesitate to stay there again any time we are in town. On a scale of 1 to 10 this home was truly an 11.

Great house, Host??

House was nice, we used the kitchen quite a bit on our stay. Having the 3 bathrooms was beneficial. I hope host was doing ok, because all communication quit after checking in. The host let us check in early then never heard from the host again even after sending her questions with some of the services. Host said televisions all had access to certain apps, but only the main room had access and one of those apps signed off in the middle of our stay. The house itself was great and we had a good time.

Great home near the River Center

This is a great home! Beautiful house and neighborhood. Close to everything we needed. All of the food recommendations we tried were wonderful... Simple Joe Cafe, Elsie's Plates and Pies and Sammy's Grill. The accommodations and amenities were nice... bikes, games, outdoor sitting areas. We had a blast playing Cards Against Humanity! It was truly an unforgettable trip. We will definitely rebook when in Baton Rouge again. Thanks for everything!

Wonderful

I booked this place for my parents to stay and they loved it. They kept complimenting the beautiful decor. It was very comfortable and they were very happy with everything. They needed help to figure out the downstairs shower and how to work the tv but after a while we figured it out. I would definitely recommend this to friends.
