The pictures are really old.
Wow this place is rough. It really is nothing like the pictures. I am just trying to warn the next people. It has a lot of palmetto bugs (or roaches). These things were big and you can hear them walking across the floor. It just has not been taken care of to have people pay to stay here. I would not return.

Weekend Get Away
This property was fantastic for our weekend get away. It felt very private. The house is large and has plenty of extras. My favorites were the large porch accessible from our bedroom, heated bathroom floors and a bidet! We highly recommended it! May or may not be haunted, if you're interested in that sort of thing.

Mon Rev
It’s an old house. It’s not a 5 star hotel. My wife and I enjoyed the stay. We booked a last minute getaway for the weekend to relax. She likes old houses and when we looked at it, it was what she was looking for.

Lovely Historic Home
Such a lovely, historic home with very interesting features. It looked just like the pictures, although the exterior may look a bit dingy - I think it is the pale green paint color. But once inside, it is a Victorian dream. So much character and charm. Do be advised that if using all 3 bedrooms, you should travel with good friends as you will need to go through the larger bedroom with the fireplace to get to the back bedroom - or enter from the outside directly into the back bedroom through the shutter doors (but you would need to unlock from the inside first). Also, the bathrooms are attached to two of the bedrooms, so again, you need to enter a bedroom to get to either bathroom. But aside from these small logistical concerns, the place is beautiful and harkens back to a romantic age. These features are just remnants of how houses were configured in days past. If you love history, as I do, you will love this place! Also, only a mile or so away are many shops and restaurants, including a large grocery store and an Walmart...And be sure to visit the Pointe Coupee Museum!

Look elsewhere!!
Nothing like the pictures it is old, not cleaned, a roach was in the bathtub. Looks like someone is still living there sometimes. Rented out for my wedding weekend, when I entered the place I was instantly depressed and wanted to cry. If you have allergies be prepared to bring some medication. All the floor in the entrance seemed to be falling apart. I did not feel comfortable cooking in the kitchen so that says a lot. Extremely disappointing!

Old pictures
I wasn’t sure I was at the right place. The place looked nothing like the pictures. The pictures are very old. It is a very old house, with a desperate need of repair. The host was very nice and accommodating, he was staying in a place behind the house. I’m sorry to say but I wouldn’t rent it again.
