About this property
Country Retreat in Pride
YOUR COUNTRY RETREAT AWAITS
Country charm meets dog-friendly fun at our newly renovated home on 24 acres.
Let your pups run free, fish or kayak in the ponds, nap in a hammock, or gather on the large covered patio for outdoor cooking and dining.
End the night by the fire pit under a sky full of stars.
Built in 1902, this renovated 1,200 sq. ft. cottage (3 beds, 1 bath) is perfect for family getaways, couples’ weekends, small groups, and retriever enthusiasts. While you’ll feel worlds away, you’re only 15 minutes from Zachary and a short drive to Baton Rouge.

Enjoy beautiful Louisiana scenery from every corner of the property — ponds, trees, and open skies.
🎣 EXCLUSIVE OUTDOOR FUN
Catch fish from the ponds, explore the land, and watch wildlife.
Glide across the water in a kayak, let the dogs swim, and feed the ducks.
As night falls, gather around the fire pit for laughter and stargazing.
